Tavern at GrayBarns Norwalk Reviews

We popped in on a whim and a had great experience dining at the bar during the NCAA tournament. The TVs were on but muted and unobtrusive. Beautiful location--a good spot for date night or dinner with the in-laws. Amazing, professional service.
The Valet parker's aren't too swift.
We asked to park our car ourselves, because it is an extremely valuable car,and we tip big to allow us to park ourselves, they said no. Park down the street. We asked the hostess for an outdoor table, and she said that they were all reserved. As we d

Had the privilege of dining at this fine establishment in November of last year (2024). The food was fantastic and so was the atmosphere. The only issue we had was with the service. The staff seemed rather rude at first and not very accommodating. Ev
Venue, cocktails and waitress were great.
Food was poor to mediocre at best. With those prices it better be excellent. The hostess was horrible. Made us feel like we were inconveniencing her. We would not go back.
Scary, Aggressive, Rude Employee at the Mercantile coffee shop.
Beware the scary, aggressive bearded baristo at the Mercantile coffee shop. Very impatient individual who was personally aggressive and just plain nasty for no reason whatsoever.
Never disappoints.
One of my top places to go when I want to have a special evening out - cozy across four seasons. Food is outstanding.
Lsst time
We have been previously but this will be the last time. Sat outside on their patio. Chairs were ok but the tables are a collapsible tin small type- really not the style, for a place like this. All the servers are in jeans- not a good look at all. Foo

The food and ambiance was very good! The service was not good. Several mistakes by our server with no apologies. Never once did she ask how our meal was or offer to get us anything else. Brought us the check without us asking for it. Left empty bottl
Great food and service and cost!
I have read many reviews that the service is snobby or rushed. My experience was the opposit, our waiter was pleasant and smiled and was a joy! The food was exactly what we expected and was superb. I have no issues other than its expensive, very.
Overpriced, horrible food long wait do not recommend.
... This place is full of pompous, hostess and servers who think they are too good to be waiting on you. If you ask them for a glass of water, it seems like it's a huge effort.

The food and server were fantastic, however the management and vallet service are terrible. This establishment requires use of a vallet service for parking. After my mom arrived home from lunch, she realized our house key was missing and the key chai
This was one of our favorite meals this year.
A beautiful interior but an even better menu. They had a mix of small plates and entrees but we dabbled in both. Their spicy rigatoni was very flavorful and honestly, I could've eaten another plate but every single dish was well made with fresh
Stop rushing your customers.
We are not looking for fast food in an expensive restaurant. The food was very good (except for the thin swordfish steak); let your customers enjoy it. Don't take away the plate of one customer while the other is still eating. Don't put dow

As always it was the best fall treat to dine on the patio at Tavern - the service is always above and beyond, the dishes just the perfect temp and taste and combos, and overall you just feel "special" being here! Tucked away in the magical
A perfect spot, especially for a special occasion
I brought some friends for a special birthday celebration and it was a perfect experience from beginning to end. Kyle, our server, was friendly, attentive and flexible. It was a pleasure to meet him. Everything was delicious; our favorites were swo

Outstanding! A 10/10 experience from the ambiance, to the staff, and most importantly the food. The ambiance inside and the outdoor patio is beautiful and homey. The staff were courteous and very helpful explaining some things on the menu we were un
Beautiful ambiance - 3rd time having dinner there.
Tuna Tartare was ok; menu is limited and odd. Nothing excited me so I ordered the chicken breast which was thick, tough and very bland on a base of pea puree with cream. Service was good. Overall ...underwhelmed for the price. Don't bother calling f
Good food, drinks, and decor.
Unpleasant hostesses and manager. Would like to return but was not an enviable experience.
This restaurant is oh so cute ! Great decor.
Husband and I did a lunch date at this restaurant. Our waiter was so nice ! He made some suggestions and checked in on us a couple of times . The food was good (not great ), however, I will definitely revisit this place in the summer when you can enj
Rewarding country inn dining.
Food is really unusual and delicious. For sure experimental. Great design which feels cozy and exciting at the same time. Worth the effort
Saturday lunch.
..excellent attentive service, well-prepared food, lovely rooms and locations. We started with a simple romaine salad, then two small plates-- waygu tarare, a special menu lightly fried mushroom dish with dipping sauces-- followed by a very good caci
What a shame.
Such a beautiful location, but the smug, entitled staff treat you like they're doing you a favor by having you there. It would be one thing if they had good food to back it up, but everything about it was underwhelming. Our waitress rushed us through

Incredible location, food, waitstaff.
Just had our second Thanksgiving at Tavern at GrayBarns and it was even better than last year. A unique space with fresh authentic delicious offerings.
Reliable picturesque beauty
Great atmosphere, friendly service, delicious drinks. Really nice picturesque views. I go here everytine I come to connecticut, have been coming for years and it never disappoints!
Great food and service.
Setting is amazing. 5 stars The bar staff is extraordinary. Anything you are looking for is possible.

The food was excellent but the menu was confusing in the way they describe appetizers, entrees, and sides. Once it was explained, the food was excellent and the wine list extensive. The service was impeccable and attentive without being intrusive.
Will not return
This restaurant underwhelmed on all counts. The attitude of the staff is wildly entitled and the antithesis of service oriented. The food was regrettable and the service astonishingly rude. Will never return.
Good food and service, but a devalued dining experience.
Food and service were good, but the seating on the patio is beyond uncomfortable. Small metal chairs with skimpy padding for seats on an uneven surface ( gravel) make for a throughly uncomfortable dining experience. Be warned. The addition of an addi
Poor value for the money
Bright contemporary dining room but loud. Oyster app sent back- they had cut oysters into pieces and placed them on new shells in tap water. Grilled Branzino entree good, side spinach on pastry cold. Bartender good and attentive. Table service very s

Oh Tavern at GrayBarns has my heart!! What a lovely and beautiful place with a modern, upscale tavern vibe. Valet parking only, we dropped off the car and entered. Upon walking in the decor was stunning and breathtaking. Beautiful sitting areas, wind
Not sure why their food has devolved.
They used to be wonderful but the last time my husband was there they served a chicken that was awful. Part of it looked like they included the lungs. Inedible. We used to be big fans. So sad.
We always have such a lovely experience when we come here
We always have such a lovely experience when we come here for Sunday brunch. The French toast with bread butter filling is to die for. I believe it's on their special menu. Don't second guess whether you should get it, just get it!!
Food was amazing, steak was one of the best we've had.
Server was very attentive. Loved the interior, looking forward to returning in the spring or summer. Valet is a little annoying but we got over it quickly once we were inside

Tried it out because I loved Silvermine Tavern as a kid.
Staff were very attentive and food was delicious. I plan to go back to check it out in the Spring and Summer as we dined indoors and would love to see the new outside.

So the place is really nice, like very very nice inside and done very well. Valet parking was a nice touch. Drinks are really good and food is also great. But the prices and portions are wackadoo. Like higher than New York City. The portions are so s

We had very high expectations for the Tavern, and they were surpassed last night. Spicy margarita was tremendous. Spicy rigatoni was out of this world. The Caesar was super fresh and not overdressed. Steak tartare was not over-seasoned (too many rest
Most romantic spot in Silvermine (Greenwich, Westport)
The ambiance cannot be beat! Romance in a rustic home in the middle of the forest is what it felt like. Only mistake we made was we didn’t book rooms. Wow! Best Branzino I’ve ever had. Everything was delish and priced on point. Excellent service.

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Tavern at GrayBarns Norwalk at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Tavern at GrayBarns Norwalk page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Tavern at GrayBarns Norwalk to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Tavern at GrayBarns Norwalk!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
