Discover Darien
Whether you live in Darien or are just visiting, you'll be able to relax in a comfortable diner and enjoy slow-cooked ribs and home-cooked sides. Breakfast lovers can find early-morning favorites all day long. Famous Chicago-style pizzas, as well as traditional burgers and pasta dishes, are served at corner cafes. If you like hot, you'll find hole-in-the-wall Cajun, Mexican and Creole spots ready to turn up the heat. Then stop by some local pubs and taverns to cool down. Encourage your taste buds to a little vicarious world traveling with Japanese sushi and hibachi fare, traditional Lithuanian dishes, tableside teppanyaki, or imported beer. It’s not uncommon for savvy eaters to grab a small nigiri platter before going across the street for some creamy wild mushroom soup and barely soup, and Darien excels at catering to every taste imaginable.
