One of the best lunches in recent memory! Both the egg sandwich and the porchetta were incredibly flavorful and well-balanced.

My husband and I came here for dinner last night while visiting from Connecticut. We were lucky to be seated as we did not have reservations. I would definitely recommend making reservations in advance as space is limited. We saw several other couples and groups get turned away after us. The service was great. They offered us bread to start, which we gladly accepted, and it set the tone for the rest of the meal. I ordered the chicken dish and my husband got the curry. We both thought our meals were delicious. Overall, the experience was very nice and the perfect vibes for a day trip. read more

Amazing! Just need a brunch place and saw this on google search while passing through Stockbridge MA. I went and saw a very cute place with nice decors. They have easter brunch menu. I just chose a safe order - scramble egg with salad. It is the yummiest scramble egg i had. It has goat cheese on top and aragula salad. For the coffee, i like it black and taste so good and I love how they serve it. The service is awesome! Everyone is nice and made me feel welcome! I will surely come back in here! read more

This small restaurant provided us with an excellent lunch on our visit to Stockbridge. Food was perfectly cooked, the sangria hit the spot, and the attentive service was just right. read more

Food and service were beyond reproach. My husband and I shared multiple apps for dinner. We arrived shortly after it opened for dinner. We did not have reservations and sat immediately. Very cozy, clean small space with maybe 25-30 seats and a few tables outside. Everything we ate was delicious and prepared so well. Mismatched older china plates made for cute conversation. Met the owner and shared our great experience. If we weren't headed home I'd be eating there tonight again. read more

I don't give out five stars very often, but some aspects outdid others, and in the end the entire experience was a higher sum of its parts. Let's not fool ourselves. Being in Stockbridge during the holidays puts everything in great light and spirits.] to begin with, so... We were going to see Winter Lights (a phenomenal Christmas light show) and were originally going to plan dinner at The Red Lion Inn, but they were booked a couple months in advance. Our second choice was "Once Upon a Table" because we'd heard great things about it. It's a small place and every table is carefully booked and planned. The staff was so kind and inviting and friendly from the second we walked in. Super nice people, professional but down to earth in true Stockbridge style. We didn't get the table we wanted but the table they had reserved for us turned out great. I had to trust the process. The food: (stay tuned for the good, bad and ugly) Two of us had the pot pie which was a huge hit! Flaky crust and the inside was filled with ground beef and peas, potatoes, and all that good stuff that makes you think you're not going to finish it, but then you do. The Pasta Fra Diavolo, was outstanding and the reason I ranked this so hi. What happens when you take a spicy saucy Calabrian red pepper Italian dish but then instead of sausage you add andouille sausage, but then basil, garlic and grated Parmesan cheese? You get a dish that insists it's Italian, but has a great and inventive twist. The dish is sticky and impossible to stop eating, and the reason I will be back. I hope they never take it off the menu! (Hint, hint!) The salads were great, but one of them, the Caesar, was way too fishy, and had an entire sardine or anchovy laying on top, and we were both like: "they tried to feed me anchovy and we said no, no, no." I definitely appreciated the effort, but this is an ingredient that should be subtly tasted and never seen. Just too fishy. Everything else was excellent. Our friends loved the wild mushroom polenta dish with fried egg was a huge hit too. We loved our server, he was affable, not annoying and a great listener. Front of house: Amazing! Super friendly and sweet and people who look like they truly care about where they work, and your experience. We walked out on a cloud! Highly recommend! read more

We wanted a nice place to eat for our anniversary. The Innkeeper at The Shaker Mill Inn suggested Once Upon a Table. It's a very small restaurant and I was glad we came early. It would be best to make reservations! However, even without reservations, we were seated right away. We were lucky. Our waitress was very sweet. We had warm rolls to start and then I had the Spring Bowl. It was very good, a lovely creative meal with beets, coleslaw, hard boiled egg, hummus, mandarin orange slices, cherry tomatoes, sweet potato crackers, and I got the additional avocado. It was colorful, tasty, very satisfying, and I didn't leave feeling overfull. Oh, and our waitress brought us a complimentary dessert - creamy vanilla ice cream with a chocolate on top for our anniversary celebration! I'd definitely go again, I'd just make reservations first next time. read more

Totally Good. RECOMMENDED. Great food, great service, cutest owner ever! We visited mid-week, zero wait, small and intimate dining area. I had the bolognese, my wife the curry, some of the best food of recent memory. Service was attentive and personal; the owner seated us and stopped by after we finished and we spoke for a while, she enjoys what she does and takes a lot of pride in her restaurant. read more

We ate outside in a sweet courtyard and our server Daniel was a delight! The food is served on mismatched vintage China. We had the mussels to start and the sauce was so flavorful! Luckily we had lots of amazing bread to dip in it. I had the shrimp bowl which was spicy with a remade sauce and rice and avocado and salsa. It was tasty but felt like it needed some arugula or one more vegetable. My husband had yummy blackened red snapper on mashed potatoes and green beans. Very nice. Potatoes were just ok. It was a great evening mostly due to the weather and Daniel's friendly service. read more

We found this little gem in a courtyard off the main road in Stockbridge. It was a wonderful lunch. Most of us had half a grilled cheese sandwich and a cup of carrot soup. The staff were so friendly. I wish I lived near here; this would become my favorite lunch place. Give it a try! read more

Overall 4.5/5 Great food in a cute little town! - Chicken pot pie 4.5/5: this was their special of the day and was absolutely tasty - grilled cheese 4.5/5: grilled cheese tasted delicious sadly it didn't come with a tomato dip like most places but it tasted even better with the chicken pot pie paired together - chicken shwarma 3.5/5: this was their most popular item but I wasn't as impressed with this read more

I just ate here with my parents and had an INCREDIBLE experience! The hostess and wait staff were so nice and friendly and our waiter (didn't get his name but he was a man), did great. He was very attentive to us and was attentive to water refills (something i notice and appreciate because I drink a lot of water), as well as funny and charming. The restaurant itself is very small but cozy and the easter decor was adorable. The food was spectacular (I ordered a ceaser salad, bolognese, and the orange sorbert), and my parents enjoyed their rice and curry. After eating and paying our bill, my parents stayed and chatted for a while and the restaurant cleared out. Once we left, we noticed that the restaurant had closed!!! and we appreciated the fact they didn't rush us out, and they let us enjoy our time there.This is definitely a place to stop by if you're in the area read more

Once Upon a Table - Pan Seared Breast Of Chicken With Cranberry Orange Sauce & Mashed Potato - American Near Me - Stockbridge, Massachusetts

Lovely little place with a wonderful wait staff. It does get busy so get their on the early side. We showed up at noon exactly and by the time we left there was a wait outside. Had the breakfast special and the french press coffee. My co-diner exclaimed that it was the best coffee he's ever had. We asked the server what brand it was, it was that good. The food was very good but felt that the price for the salad wasn't quite worth it. I would recommend this place and would come back again. read more

Wonderful lunch at this pretty little restaurant. We started with an order of arancini that had a rich sauce and generous amount of Parmesan cheese to complement the crunchy cheesy rice balls. The seafood cakes with remoulade were delicious, and my friend enjoyed the upscale tomato soup and grilled cheese. The mocktail and hibiscus mint herbal tea were a refreshing complement to our meals. I recommend this restaurant when visiting the quintessential New England town of Stockbridge. read more

Results were mixed. Outstanding salad, mussels and pork chop. A lovely large snapper filet overwhelmed by a too one note peppery creole sauce. Terrific friendly attentive sérvice but a crowded feeling due to several family groups with very overtired children at 7 pm. So plan for later in the evening and discuss choices with the server. read more

Had several vegan choices (including a dessert item: vegan chocolate mousse). Good choices all. Were able to accommodate a party of 7 without reservations. Wonderful friendly staff. read more

Eating here is always a wonderful experience. While it is a small place and the menu is not extensive, the food you order is always delicious. The service is excellent and there is a warm cozy feeling We had the salmon cakes, PEI Mussels and a Caesar salad which were all delicious... A real pick me up on a rainy dark winter evening! read more

Truly shocked by how rude the staff were. There were signs on every door saying "open". We walked in to check on the wait time for 2 people. Waited an awkward 10-15 minutes while all staff avoided eye contact. Eventually a lady who had been chatting with one of the tables and therefore who we previously assumed was a guest came over to tell us and the several other groups who had also been waiting that there was no room and they were full for the night. There's no excuse for this. If you have a hostess on the clock, they should be aware of the people who are waiting to be seated. A sign on the door saying they were full also would have done the job. Instead, they wasted our time and were going home hungry. read more

If you are in the Berkshires, this is a must! read more

Friday evening I stopped in to try their food. I ordered the crab cakes and mussels. Delicious! Definitely will head back to try other dishes. Since the hummus sold out, I'm guessing it was really good. Hot bread was also served. Yum! I will be returning for a meal on my next trip back to the Berkshires! read more

My wife and I celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary at this wonderful and cozy little restaurant in The Mews. We were lucky to get a reservation at the last minute as the place was bustling when we arrived. We were quickly seated and delightfully catered to by our server Shanique who was extremely personable and helpful. The appetizer and meal choices are all great, and we both enjoyed the chicken curry and shrimp and Andouille sausage penne fra diablo paired with some of their wonderful wines chosen from a concise and well-curated wine list. Appetizers were also delicious. We glanced at the inviting dessert menu, but we will have to come back and save room next time. The maitre'd kindly brought us a complimentary small bowl of their local Highlawn Farm's French vanilla ice cream to share with our excellent filter press coffee as an anniversary treat. This made the evening all the more sweet and delicious. We shall return. read more

I give this restaurant 5 stars for my overall experience-ambience, service and food. The person that greeted me at the door was friendly and attentive. I ordered the salmon cakes which didn't seem to be from a can, but if so, really good. I stopped here on my way to the Norman Rockwell museum. read more

Once Upon a Table - Quinoa arugula tomato olive salad with avocado - American Near Me - Stockbridge, Massachusetts

Service 4 star standards met. Ambiance: 3 star. Sort of blah but plenty clean. Close seating arrangement. Overall didn't distract but was noticeable. Food: 2. Had the hamburger and a chicken "pot pie". Hamburger was a frozen patty that was cooked gray when ordered "medium". The bun was too small and soggy. Chicken Pot "Pie" was not a pie, nor did it have the flaky crust. instead, it was a very liquid soupy version that was served with a flaky biscuit. Two small pieces of chicken but mostly potatoes. Overall value: 3. Including a 20% tip , the above was $50. read more

Poor experience, do not recommend. I did not think the staff was professional nor kind. I recommend restaurants in nearby Lenox, there are many great options. read more

Greeted warmly, seated immediately. Prompt attention by waiter. Limited menu but very interesting dishes. Appetizers and entrees were served promptly and hot. The blackened snapper was good but could have had more pop (Vidalia onion chutney would be a good compliment). Through and through, from start to finish, a thoroughly enjoyable experience with engaged waitstaff and Avi is a gem! read more

My wife and I found this place by accident while on a long weekend vacation. We chose to share 4 appetizers for our dinner and were more than satisfied. The food was extraordinary. We ate Aroncini. Crab cakes, hummus and vegan zucchini and bean soup. They tasted home made and fresh. All the dishes were superb. The service was warm and friendly. The atmosphere was unpretentious and cozy. We highly recommend this hidden gem. read more

Nice little place for dinner before a show. Reliably good food and service. We try to visit when we are in Stockbridge.
