Restaurants near Fireside Inn & Suites Gilford

Great little spot to eat! Food was excellent. Service was good. A tad on the expensive side but the quality of the food makes it worth it. The tables were small and the space is certainly limited. But it was cozy and overall a great experience. Highly recommend for a date night or special occasion!

Every dish was amazing! Justin is an extremely talented chef and we can’t wait to go back. Even something like potato leek soup, which I almost didn’t select because it seemed too ordinary and there were so many other great options in the first course, ended up being the best soup I have ever had. Cocktails were creative and fantastic as well. Really nice ambience with the rustic but elegant decor.

Buckley's is well known in our region as one of the better places to dine, especially if one seeks a good steak. We were not disappointed. I got the sugar cured strip loin and my dining partner ordered the filet mignon. Both cooked precisely as we preferred (medium well). The preliminaries (bread with olive oil, a salad for my dining partner) were tasty without being too filling. The core meal was delicious. The server (Laura) was attentive and friendly. She muffed my beer order but I am not very picky -- she ended up crediting us anyway. Two of the five dessert offerings were sold out; we settled for the blueberry crisp, and it was excellent.

A real fine dining experience. My wife and a guest and I dined at Trenta last night. Wonderful to see a restaurant so in the details. Thoughtful menu, we started with the autumn kale salad, which was a perfect beginning. Fresh ingredients, and not drowning in dressing as is so often the case out there these days. Also, the meatballs of the appetizer menu. They were really fun. All three of our main courses were interesting, thoughtfully, prepared and tasteful. And I want to shout out the wine list. Plenty of great selections. Our server struck the right balance between being attentive without being intrusive. Background music was at the right level for conversation, and the ambience is perfect. We will be back soon and often. 

Outstanding food, friendly and attentive servers.
