    One of our best dining experiences of the year. It was a special birthday celebration, which I noted when I made the reservation. They sat us at a special table, which started the evening off great. The food, drinks and the staff at the Carriage House were all amazing! Can't wait to go back.

    We could not have asked for a better anniversary celebration than we had tonight. Our host, RJ, was amazing. Drinks, food, service was all top notch. My husband is particular about food and he said his meal (the hanger steak) was so beautifully done and each component was complementary to one another that it was a “home run”. High praise from him. We love the Carriage House and look forward to each meal there. 5 Stars all the way around.

    They need to different type of glassware for sparkling water and still water. The servers kept trying to fill our sparkling water with still water. Otherwise we loved eating at the Carriage House- consistently good

    Absolutely LOVE the Carriage House in beautiful Rye Beach. It is such a cozy and inventive yet classic vibe and atmosphere. Food was outstanding! Fresh ingredients and expert preparation combine for a very memorable experience. We loved the dessert night caps to finish off a very delicious meal.

    Cute place, the food is wonderful. We had the monkfish, duck and steak.. a tiny bit on the salty side for me…but all excellently prepared. Definitely get the rolls! Excellent service too. You won’t be disappointed.

    Waiter was not good. We had to flag down the host, to get desert and coffee ordered, as we sat with the desert menu forever, with no sign of waiter any where.

    Start to finish this experience was perfection! Heather was attentive, but super observant! She was going to come take our order and noted our younger son was telling an adorable story and turned to let him finish. Drinks, appetizers, entree, and dessert were EXCEPTIONAL in flavor and creativity. The setting across from the ocean is icing on the cake! My favorite restaurant around!
