Her suggestions and service were on point, the food was very good with the exception of the " Steak Fritas" . The steak was tough, over cooked and not the medium rare we ordered and also you could tell by the color alone it had been sitting in the refrigerator for a while and tasted like it as well. Definitely would not recommend any steak entrees. We also had the stuffed mushrooms - which were fantastic, and also the Chicken Caprese Sandwich which was very good. As far as drinks, my daughter had a blueberry mule, which she loved, and she's not that crazy about most alcoholic beverages so I was happy she found something she liked, which was the bartender's suggestion as well. I had a raspberry cosmo, which was very delicious! We would definitely give it another chance. Everyone has there off days.

I love the decor inside and the names of the items on the menu was unique to musical artists which was cool. I will personally make the trip back to this place again.

With good reviews and a cool menu we dropped in and couldn't have been happier! We were pretty lucky as it was not that busy and we were able to get a table right away. The decor is eclectic and interesting. The staff came with a great smile and even better attitude; absolutely top notch! We started w the pretzels and beer cheese. Holy 6 pound baby Jesus they were good. They came out piping hot and the cheese was in a bubbling side dish. This isn't your typical dab of cheese in a plastic condiment container that is commonplace nowadays. I had the Arturo Sandoval (spin on a Cuban) as my entree and it was also fabulous and came out hot. If I was being critical, the pork was a wee bit dry, but that happens sometimes and it really didn't take away from the sando. Even the small side of pasta salad was outstanding. I'm lucky if I eat sides like that 1/100 times and this one I couldn't wait to finish. Great vibe, great staff, great food, and live music almost every day. Definitely gonna go back and if it's just as good will update to 5 stars.

The wine list was decent, and note that they only have one beer available, but it is Peroni which matches well with Italian food. Service was attentive and friendly without being intrusive and our server made for a fun night. The restaurant did get a bit loud, but it was crowded on a Saturday night so be sure to call ahead for reservations. We will definitely go back!

Elizabeth's Farmhouse -- Putnam, Connecticut…read more By far one of the best meals I've ever had, and quite possibly the best burger of my life! Coming from Southern California with a culinary background, I'll admit my expectations can sometimes be modest when dining outside well-known food scenes. Elizabeth's Farmhouse didn't just exceed them--it blew them away. My wife and I arrived in Putnam looking for a quick bite and found this charming, approximately 50-seat restaurant with no wait. I ordered an Oktoberfest from a local brewery, while my wife chose an Old Fashioned. She ordered the Farmhouse Meatloaf Wrap, I chose the burger, and we shared the German Onion Soup. The German Onion Soup was outstanding. The onions were caramelized to a beautiful deep amber, with rich umami, subtle garlic and shallot, and a wonderfully developed beef broth. The crostini, topped with perfectly melted Gruyère, brought everything together. Every component was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor. Then came the burger--and this was no ordinary burger. Cooked to a flawless medium-rare, it featured thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon, crispy red onions, aged sharp white cheddar, ancho chili barbecue sauce, and a perfectly seasoned Niman Ranch all-beef patty on a soft brioche bun. Every bite delivered an incredible balance of smoky, savory, sweet, and spicy flavors. Nothing overpowered anything else. Without question, this was one of the best burgers I've ever had. My wife's Farmhouse Meatloaf Wrap was equally impressive, featuring tender meatloaf, creamy mashed potatoes, aged white cheddar, and house-made chipotle mayonnaise. Rich, hearty comfort food elevated through thoughtful preparation and excellent execution. Even the fresh-cut fries deserve recognition. Cooked beautifully and served with house-made ketchup that reminded me of an Italian nonna's homemade marinara. When even the simplest condiment receives that much attention, you know you're dining somewhere special. By the end of our meal, both plates were completely clean. As someone with a culinary background, I appreciate the difference between food that is simply prepared and food crafted with genuine passion. Elizabeth's Farmhouse is a shining example of the latter. To the chef and everyone behind the scenes: your passion for food does not go unnoticed. You've created something truly special in Putnam, Connecticut. I rarely write restaurant reviews, but this experience absolutely deserved one. Five stars, without hesitation. I'll be back hungry for more!

Wish that was included in the menu description because that's not my favorite flavor. And also had the hush puppies with jalapeño butter. I think the honey butter option is better, but this one wasn't bad.

They have a great selection when it comes to brunch, breakfast items, lunch items, you name it. Also, they are flexible with orders. My wife asked for a Caesar with romaine vs kale; no problem at all. I went with the Fried Fish Sandwich. Both were excellent! You can tell the food here is local; and not brought in from any of the big national distributors. Service was friendly and attentive. I really enjoyed the inside vibe and decor.

The longer I looked around, the more cool things I noticed like an air hockey table and figurines throughout. Also, the middle of the condiment holder was a fake (but very real looking) chicken nugget which was unique. They have two big screen TVs and they were showing a football game. We had the RI Food Fights Wiener coupons and this is the first place that had a menu specific to this event. My friend ordered the backyard hot dog and I ordered the Chicago dog with a side of fries. Our order came out after about 10 minutes. The hot dogs were grilled to perfection, pretty thick, long, and juicy. I couldn't tell if they were all beef though. Both the buns were toasted, but the Chicago one came on a bun with poppy seeds. All the toppings were fresh and had just the right amount of each. The fries were simple but very good - crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Our server was very kind and attentive. This is definitely a hidden treasure. One other plus is that they have a large parking lot.

Lots of retro decor (think Slimer from Ghostbusters, Hulk Hogan pillow buddies, etc). The walls are lined with arcade games... bring your quarters! Whole variety of seating, from tables and chairs to circular booths, and the like. The perfect space to settle in for a bit, especially on a rainy weekend evening. We were greeted immediately and provided with a number of menus... and what a menu! Lots of comfort food options ranging from apps to entrees, and a number of sandwiches and burgers. I was vacillating between the hot dogs and a couple of the chicken sandwich's and ultimately selected the Cool Ranch Ray with grilled chicken, cheddar, bacon, and Ranch dressing. It was delicious! Unfortunately, the fries left something to be desired as they were fairly dried out and a bit tough to get down. Perhaps a bit less time in the fryer could have fixed that. Dessert was a nice cap to the meal with Nutella empanadas. Yum! PB & Jealous drink... divine. Our waiter Chris was moving and grooving... never seeming to stop for a second and always finding time to check in with us. Pretty certain he was behind the bar AND waiting tables and kept up with it all. Bravo! Fun evening, great food. Will definitely be back.
