    Food quality / price (value) rating 9. The atmosphere is eclectic Mediterranean. The menu is basically Mediterranean Fusion, with a variety of offerings not typically seen together. The presentations are very nice, and the ingredients used are of high quality. I started with a Jalapeno Margherita with freshly muddled jalapenos, and it was unique and fantastic ! I also had the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich, which was slightly spicy and very good, and the house made shoestring fries were nice and crispy as requested The wife had the Bianca Flatbread, which I tried and it was much better than I expected, and the wife liked it very much also. They have a decent number of brands of bottled and canned beers, but no draught beer. A large wine menu is available. Live entertainment is featured on the first Friday of each month, and they have a Happy Hour from 4 to 6 pm on weekdays. The owners, Marianne & Tom, are third generation restauranteurs, and are typically in attendance. We'll definitely be back!

    Overall experience was very disappointing. We ordered 3 tapas and one appetizer for two of us and left the restaurant hungry. The portions were tiny. The Mac and cheese tasted like some kind of beef stroganoff dish. Tuna was very bland and just too small. The pork chicharrones was one dry piece of pork. The charcuterie board for an appetizer was the only decent meal. We spent so much money, and had to go to ANOTHER restaurant to eat, because we were still hungry. The atmosphere was lacking too. The waitress never asked us if we liked our food. We will never be back.

    I have been here before, but I got married on 11/22 & decided to come back with my small group, since my friends live close by and frequent this gem. I cant say enough about the great service, friendly & accommodating. The food!!! Oh My Laawwwddd! From the apps of wings&Brussels sprouts, absolutely delicious, we all shared & we all loved. Entrees: my tacos were da bomb & so filling, the star however were the DRUNKEN NOODLES, OMG! I cant say enough about how tasty and wonderful this dish is. A must when I go back. Added bonus, the owner came out to say hi & chat! What a great place.

    Chef will customize as much as possible to your liking. Pasta is made fresh here Sauces are amazing and staff is very friendly I need friendly staff in my life. Simple menu yet I have read the restaurants posts and they really have a vast knowledge of great food Not a family style place so be fair warned.Great spot for a business dinner,romantic dinner or just friends. Treat yourself!!

    This was a great stop for dinner on the way home. The flavor of the smoked chicken chew steak was fantastic and the Brussels were yummy too.

    Exterior

    I chose this place to have dinner with a friend after we spent the day at the Hudson Valley Wine and Chocolate Festival. The exterior of the restaurant is sort of reminiscent of a house, with the doors wide open, welcoming its guests. Inside there are yellow walls, blue and white on the ceilings and brown wood tables and chairs. There was an outdoor patio in the back which overlooked the Westview Golf Driving Range, which was a beautiful view, especially during the sunset. We were served ice water in pretty blue tinged glasses, with a slice of lemon on it, which I thought was a nice touch. I knew I wanted to try the duck confit quesadilla, however they did not have that available. Instead, I chose the patatas bravas and short rib arepas, while my friend ordered the steak frites. While waiting for our food, the chef (Tommy Stevens) came out and started making paella, which he filled with chicken, chorizo, shrimp, sauasge, onions, green and red peppers and later mussels. It was really cool to see his whole process of cooking the paella. We had the patatas bravas first, which were crispy fingerling potatoes with tomato sauce and a healthy drizzle of roasted garlic aioli mayonnaise on top. This was absolutely delicious! The potatoes were truly crisp with the yummy taste of seasoning and the mayonnaise made it even better. Then our waitress came with a shrimp and toast tapa dish which we did not order. She let us enjoy it on the house, which I was very happy about. It was wild red shrimp with the intense flavor of garlic and black pepper. The sauce that accompanied the shrimp was also tasty. There were 3 short rib arepas total and consisted of 12-hour braised beef short rib, pineapple salsa and arepas on the bottom. On top was cumin lime creamy sauce. There was a pretty good amount of the meat on the arepas and it was very tender and quite flavorful. The pineapple salsa gave at an extra pop of flavor which I found enjoyable. The arepas were decent, though perhaps a little dry. I tried a piece of my friend's steak, but wasn't impressed. (Perhaps because I had some very high quality filet mignon the night before.) I just felt like it was a bit bland and not very juicy. I did like the shoestring fries though - Those were addicting! We were still there when the chef finished cooking the paella so we were able to try some of it (for free - He was letting everyone have a taste!) This was absolutely wonderful. The rice was fluffy and perfectly orange colored. The meat and shrimp were all tender and seasoned with tons of garlic, pepper, herbs. Everything tasted delightfully fresh and the ingredients mingled together well. The service was good, though a little slow at first - It took awhile for someone to give us our menus, but after that we got our drinks and food with no problem. Our waitress was lovely and we also got to speak with the chef a little throughout our time. He was very warm, open and friendly. He mentioned that the menu changes depending on what season it is to ensure that they use the best, which I thought to be cool and innovative. I am not usually in the area, but if I am I would stop by again.

    Let me start by saying that I love the staff here. So friendly & accommodating. Love the location, ample parking, pretty views in the back. Love the option for outdoor seating & the fact that they are dog friendly on the patio. The food we've tried has been very yummy, ESPECIALLY the empanadas (omg you must try them) and the $3 happy hour tacos are awesome. We also love the flatbreads and basically every appetizer we've tried. Bathroom is always clean & drinks are good. If I had to change something it would be the amount of care/effort into the back area. What a beautiful spot that could be! It is so overgrown and needs some love and landscaping. Would make such a difference! Also, each time we've come, at least one dish we were interested in getting has been unavailable. Most recently I went with a girlfriend for wings & crab cakes and they were out of both :( I totally understand it must be hard to get shipments & deliveries now with Covid but I wish it was communicated via Instagram or something so you know the deal before arriving. It's frustrating to drive all the way over excited for specific favorites & neither were available. Anyway, this will not deter me from returning as these are both easy fixes & I'm sure life after Covid will help alleviate these minor issues. Overall a great place!

    Idek what to say. Ordered takeout and received this sh*t. Service clearly is more concerned about themselves. Idek what ambiance is but I wouldn't recommend this spot.

    every single thing on the menu was a 10/10 which is crazy bc I never give any food a 10/10 lmaoo it…read morewas soooo insanely good and staff was very cool very attentive overall great experience, great atmosphere, great food.

    We visited Rebellion Kitchen + Bar on Thanksgiving Eve, so the restaurant wasn't very busy, but…read morethat actually made the experience even better. The atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming, and the staff was attentive without ever being rushed. It gave us a great chance to really enjoy the space and the food. We started with the two-cheese crostini, which ended up being one of the highlights of the night. The bread was perfectly crisp, and the cheeses had just the right amount of richness without being heavy. I also tried their seasonal non-alcoholic Spiced Apple-Lini, and it was surprisingly delicious--refreshing, slightly sweet, and very "fall in a glass." For my entrée, I ordered the chicken Milanese, and I have to say it might be the best I've ever had. I'm usually very particular about chicken dishes, but the flavor and texture were spot-on. The breading was light and crispy, and the chicken itself wasn't dry at all. The plate came with a beautiful mix of seasonal vegetables--roasted squash, shaved fennel, cranberries, and arugula--topped with an apple cider vinaigrette that pulled everything together. It tasted fresh, balanced, and really thoughtful. We ended the meal with their cheesecake served with a house-made pistachio crème. The flavor was fantastic, especially the pistachio topping, which really made it unique. My only tiny note is that I personally prefer cheesecake a bit colder and denser rather than closer to room temperature, but that's purely personal preference and didn't take away from enjoying it. The owner also came by to chat with us, and he was incredibly friendly--clearly someone who cares about his guests and the quality of the experience. Between the great service, thoughtful menu, and inviting atmosphere, we're already looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes. Definitely a strong addition to the Danbury dining scene.

    Lake House Restaurant -- let me explain something to you…read more I came here for my anniversary with my wife, okay? Romantic intentions. The food was great. The drinks? Even better. Then they sit us by a fireplace... facing the lake. I said out loud, "Are you serious right now?" Because that's not a restaurant--that's a lifestyle flex. This place had me feeling like I was back in Manhattan, living the life I was supposed to live. Sophisticated. Refined. Dangerous levels of happiness. All for about an hour and a half... before I went home to change diapers and clean cat hairballs like a regular civilian. I mean every single day these damn cats throw up somewhere in this house! I hear they got jammed up over some tax nonsense and let me just say this clearly: taxation is theft. If we gotta throw some symbolic tea into the lake in solidarity, I'll bring the boxes. Leave this place alone. It's a diamond in this town. Lake House is elegant without being stiff, romantic without being weird, and just fancy enough to remind you who you used to be before bedtime routines ruined everything. Five stars. I'll be back chasing that feeling again.

    I have always loved this place and have been a customer for years but this evening was different,…read moreand very disappointing. We were told when we ordered that the food would be slightly delayed by the kitchen. However, an hour later when we walked out, we had still only been served a few pieces of bread and our tap water. Our waiter stopped by only once during that hour wait to say that our appetizer would be out soon. He didn't refill our glasses, bring additional bread, or explain the delay. Twenty minutes later we were still waiting for our appetizer so we left. Most of the patrons seemed to be waiting for their food as well. The staff should be better trained to handle all situations including delays. This place is going downhill fast.

    I unfortunately have mixed feelings about this place! I have been here many times and the photos…read moreare from a recent time where we got the $250 steak. So yeah as you can imagine this place is pricey and is definitely for a special occasion. On this visit we had exceptional service and they even brought us free caviar! I have seen them do this before. We had a girls night here one time and one of my friends got there early. As she waited they gave her a complimentary glass of champagne. This type of customer service is amazing and is what is expected of an establishment of this caliber. I mean a room at the hotel here will cost you about $1000 a night. So as you can guess it is not unusual to see celebrities here as well. Before I get into the food I will tell you what made me give them 3 stars. One morning I brought a friend here that was going through something. I wanted to treat her to a nice breakfast. We sat on there terrace by the fire pits. As I've said before I've been here often. The waiter who was not as friendly as I've had before told me in order to eat there I needed to put a card on file. Huh? I've never seen that before but okay sure. I mentioned how I would likely order something to go to for my husband at the end of our meal. The service was not great because they did not come back and when they finally did they swiped my card and gave me the final check. Huh? I never said I was finished and again I had already mentioned I wanted to order something to go. When I asked this new waitress ( the original guy was no where in sight) why they ran my card already because I specifically said I wanted to order something to go her nonchalant response was that she could just run it again. I've thought about that experience. It felt so off and I would have said something more at the time but again I was having breakfast with a friend who was going through something. Not the time to complain. So when I met someone who worked there at a diffrent event. I shared my experience and asked if this is a policy of there's to put a card on file to eat on the terrace. As you can guess it is not. Unfortunately, as you can imagine I felt discriminated against. I guess our waiter assumed I wouldn't pay my check and wanted to make sure he had my card and he swiped it as soon as he saw us take the last bites on our plates. After I talked to this employee I did write the restaurant to let them know of this experience and sadly I got no reply. I will say I have been back since then and did not get treated that way. But I felt like it's important to let others know. This is by no means a cheap restaurant especially in the economy! I would expect not to be made to feel the way I felt that day and would never want at one to feel that way. Benefit of the doubt maybe that waiter did have someone run out on his check in the past and wanted to ensure it did not happen again. I can understand that because I know some restaurants make the waiter pay for those walkouts, which is also not fair to them. It would have been nice though that when I contacted them about the situation they would have acknowledged what happened. And maybe just better training on how to go about the situation to make sure their customers don't feel like you assume they are criminals. Okay the food. First there French fries are a favorite. Random I know but I appreciate a good fry. The steak was cooked perfectly and the cocktails were got were a 10! I've had food from the breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu. The food is farm to table and I love sitting either outside or by the open kitchen as you watch the chefs cook. All and all I say it's worth going even for a cocktail. Sometimes they have live music playing and it's super cute for a nice date night. They do valet parking and have tons of charging stations.
