    Wow, wow, wow. I feel so lucky that I was driving on Rt 7 and saw this beautiful house and I stopped to see if they had a restaurant (the patio lights gave me sense that it would). The restaurant is located in Swift's House which has several beautiful (1800s buildings on a small hill). The food was exquisite. We ordered more than we could eat because everything sounded delicious and it was. Linus was our waiter who was attentive throughout our dinner. I will return (and make sure I make reservations ahead of time)

    The hostess and wait staff were kind and professional. I like the uniquely decorated rooms of the house-like dining rooms. It is cozy and the dishes are carefully prepared, clean, and delicious. The lamb chops special was cooked with precision and was crispy and yummy.

    Maple Manhattan. Yum.

    Ambiance/Atmosphere: Definite "Vermont Inn" dining room, with old time charm and romantic and calm atmosphere. You can actually have conversation with a nice quiet environment. "New England Charm". Service: Very attentive staff all around, great help with wine choices, food recommendations, and just the right amount of attention. Food: Amazeballs. All around great, from the starting cocktail, through the soup (lots of lobster in it), main course and dessert. Everything was well presented, high quality, and delicious. Definitely worth a visit. Just mind the parking, because that's the only part that could detract. If they're busy it can be hard to get a spot. We'll definitely be back.

    Jessica's first brunch was a hit. My New Years day visit was excellent. The menu offered a decent selection of breakfast entrees, drinks and desserts. I had the waffles and chicken. Top notch. For desert it's was the maple creme brulee. Hopefully the brunch option at Jessica's will continue throughout 2025. Book now, this cozy restaurant fills fast!

    "The Library"

    Top notch B&B meal made very special by sommelier. Amazing duck. Sumptuous scallops! While chicken was highly recommended, it had disappointing tomato sauce on top and lacked flavor and moistness. Fabulous and affordable wine list. Seating in library was charming!

The restaurant was built around a 1921 Hacker Craft wooden boat, beautifully restored by friends of mine at Morgan Marine in Silver Bay, NY. The boat used to house an actual salad bar, pre-Covid. Now it's just a beautifully appointed mahogany boat in a big room just past the hostess station. The rest of F&I is a series of small and large rooms, some very intimate. There are artifacts everywhere (that you need to explore). Recently visited w best friend, Locomotive Breath (formerly known as Zagbolt). Sat at the bar. Seemingly lots of locals. Very capably waited on by bartender Andre. He was effective, efficient, and gregarious. Perfect young man for the job. We split a dozen wings (one of the specials which were smothered in an orange, peppery glaze). Delicious! I also had a cheeseburger w bacon. Perfectly broiled on a substantial bun. And onion rings. Plentiful. LB had a mesquite chicken panini w mashed. He loved it. Large selection of tapped and bottled beer, wine, alcohol of all kinds. One thing that kind of caught my attention was another patron's prime rib. Very fatty, on the thin side, $39. Did not think it was a good presentation or value. F&I is still one of the best restaurants around. Museum-like, and good food. Curtailed hours compared to years past, and looking for help (of all kinds). 4 stars

Despite having a reservation, we waited 90 minutes for our meals. When the food finally arrived, it came out in waves about 10 minutes apart. By the time one end of the table received their meals, the other end had already finished eating. Our appetizer was delivered at the same time as our entrées and had clearly been sitting under a heat lamp. It was dried out and tasted of old oil. Our waitress appeared overwhelmed and received no visible support from management. We were not offered drink refills, and we were never asked if everything was satisfactory. The child in our group was served a burnt grilled cheese sandwich that required scraping off the charred portions just to make it edible. It was also made with rye bread and unmelted shredded cheese -- neither of which were indicated on the children's menu. After 2.5 hours, when we requested the check, we were told they could not separate it -- despite having informed the waitress at the beginning of the evening whose tabs were grouped together. We have hosted family events there before and have never encountered this policy. It was not posted or communicated to us in advance. As someone who has worked in customer service and management for over 30 years, I understand how challenging the industry can be. However, communication, organization, and support from management are essential if you expect guests to return. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect that standard. We will be choosing to celebrate our family gatherings elsewhere in the future.

It came in a small cast iron pan so I was excited and expected crispy rice! I didn't get it though, the rice was just there, Not crispy! Very disappointing! Bobby Flay would scoff at this poor excuse, we know what crispy rice is suppose to be like. The dish should just say with rice since I didn't get a hint of sesame either.
