My mouth waters just thinking about it! The manager, Miguel, invited my husband and I to step into the wine cellar and told us about a number of bottles that might suit us. We were more than pleased with his recommendation. Finally, we ordered the creme brulee cheesecake. The top was perfectly flambéed- they make this thing in house. I had no space and yet devoured it completely. Besides all of this, the restaurant itself is spacious and elegant, and very welcoming. My husband and I will be coming back as often as we can and are gonna bring as many friends as possible! Thank you Miguel!

The menu looked nice and I truly had a hard time on deciding what to try! I settled for a seafood night and went with the fisherman's platter, stuffies, and a cheese cake to finish it off.

The stuffies were amazing and truly set the meal! The cheesecake was small, but decent and came with a strawberry sauce/coulis. I will look forward to venturing in when the pandemic has concluded. This seems like a nice spot to visit!

After failing to squeeze in nine holes before sundown at Swansea Country Club and playing…read moremiserably, my friend and I needed an emotionally supportive meal. My friend had been to the Aviary before and spoke highly of it, and after scanning the menu, I also thought it was a great selection. It was around 8:15 pm when we arrived so we luckily just barely made it before the kitchen closed and we were able to be sat outside. We started with drinks - a Maracuja (which translates to passion fruit in English) and Lychee Martini - both were excellent! They were refreshing, not overly sweet, tasted just like the fruit advertised, and didn't have a ton of ice. All the appetizers made my mouth water just by reading them on the menu, but we decided on the garlic rosemary wings to keep it classic. The menu said they'd be jumbo wings, but they looked like normal size to me which I was actually pleased about since jumbo wings scare me (they're usually raw closer to the bone). They were very crispy on the outside which almost dried them out, but the garlic and rosemary infused butter did bring them back to life a little. I could taste both the garlic and rosemary in the butter and the parmesan cheese shavings were a great touch. For entrees, I ordered a CT style lobster roll and my friend had the swordfish (with fingerling potatoes and asparagus). On Wednesdays, a lobster roll is $20 which is a really good price especially since it also comes with homemade chips. They give you an option between CT style (warm and lobster tossed with butter) and New England style (cold and tossed with mayo and lemon), so I learned something new that day. The bun was buttered and toasted, and it was stuffed with a good amount of fresh lobster meat, and mixed with a light amount of butter. The chips were crunchy, seasoned, fresh, and tasted like real potatoes but just a millimeter or two thicker. The swordfish was flavorful, moist, and did not taste fishy at all. The fingerling potatoes were soft and flavorful as well. They also brought us out an order of fries and they were quite good, maybe missing some salt but I liked that there was a variety going on such as crispy, oily, soft, long, short, edges etc. Our server was great throughout the night; brought us everything we needed without checking in too often. Even though they were closed, the staff did not make us feel like we had to rush out; they were rather patient and we left around 9:45 pm. Both the inside and outside of the restaurant are very nice. The inside gives classy, and the outside gives great space for laughter and good vibes. They even have a section with lawn chairs over turf with string lights. The entrance/exit path is also very nice, with hydrangeas, roses, and other flowers on either side, a white arch, and string lights too. Overall very pleased with the ambiance, quality of food, prices, and service.

The food is great, the drinks are amazing and the vibe is really what Swansea needed. Looking forward to their continued success in the opening of their new restaurant in Westport!

My mom turned 80 and I asked where she wanted to go, she picked Fred and Steve's. We had taken her here for her birthday in 2012 and she loved it.

We had the smoked maple old fashioned with angels envy substituted for the crown royal. For appetizer's we had the bacon wrapped scallops, beef carpaccio and lobster bisque. Scallops were amazing, carpaccio was good and the lobster bisque was as good as I remember it. Nice presentation with the lobster served in the bowl and the bisque poured over it. For my main I got the 22 ox ribeye and added the cream corn side. It was cooked perfectly. Med rare, just,as ordered. Corn was delicious. Mom got the special filet mignon with 2 baked stuff shrimp.

We both said on the first sip it tasted just like the box wine we had at home and the whole box (which equals 4 bottles) costs $18. We will not be returning ever.

It was Sunday night and my friend and I decided to wind down the weekend with a casual dinner by…read morethe water. He made reservations for 6 pm, which apparently is a popular time since there was no parking in the shared lot. However, there were a few vacant spots along Water St. but also plenty on the side streets. The host brought us to the most perfect seats: on their patio, in the corner, with front row seats to the sun set above the water. Although the seating does seem crowded, since we were in the corner we were able to ignore it. We were sold on two of their specials, one of them being the watermelon tequila drink for my friend and their ricotta hot honey calamari. I ordered a mango mule mocktail for myself. Our server was transparent with us and let us know the drinks would take a bit since the bar was backed up with orders, so it took about 40 minutes to get our drinks. While we waited, the calamari came out. It looked and tasted very crispy, almost like a corn starch or corn flour batter. The calamari was not chewy, but the rings were smaller than what I am used to, with very little octopus. I liked the burrata but I wish it was either on the side in a small dish or in dollops over the calamari since the way it was spread onto the bottom of the plate to one side made it harder to scoop up. I loved when I could taste the hot honey but sadly it was only in little pockets of the dish. I would've wanted more of it to cover most of the pieces. But I really do think burrata - creamy and light, hot honey-sweet, lemon -acidic, and calamari- savory and crispy worked really well. For entrees, my friend ordered the swordfish ($38) and I went with the 14 oz ribeye ($48), albeit I was heavily considering the burger. Our drinks finally made their grand arrival and they were worth the wait. Both were very fruity and refreshing, with the mango mule being sweeter. The food came out after about 20 minutes. It looked fantastic; fresh and still warm. The meat was tougher than I was expecting, but it was cooked how I wanted it. There were a couple cartilage like pieces around the perimeter, but sadly very little tender and fatty marbling. I think it could've used more salt or seasoning. The fries were supposed to be truffle fries, but I think they only added parmesan and dried parsley. The ranch I order on the side helped the fries. The asparagus trunks were thin, but well cooked and flavorful. I tried a piece of my friend's swordfish and it was east to chew but lacking flavor. We did not have space for dessert, but we stayed a while to catch golden hour and more of the sunset. Overall, the food was okay but I thought the prices were high. Our waitress was excellent as she provided updates on our food/drinks, came around often enough and brought us everything we needed, all while maintaining a smile on her face. The views won me over, as well as the snippets of the live music across the parking lot when conversations got quiet or parties started clearing out at Trafford's.
