Reviews for Foundry Kitchen and Tavern in Sandy Hook, CT
We sat outside, we had a nice view and we could enjoy a beautiful weather, service was good, variety of drinks, cocktails and... wine, nachos wasn't the best, but they were tasty and kinda spicy, calamari were crispy. Read more
Wow!! We were super lucky that we wandered into this place for lunch. The quality of all the food was superb. Easily one of the... most delicious plates of nachos I have ever had. The sauce was a unique fresh spin to the dish, and the tajin seasoning wassimply spot-on. We also ordered the impossible burger and mushroom po-boy, both of which we will reorder. Ah, and then thefries...I want more! Read more
Had the inside out burger with yuca fries. Messy meal, but delicious. Fish tacos were ok, not very flavourful.
My Sister found Foundry Kitchen and Tavern for my Bridal Shower yesterday, May 30th. Mary and her team were phenomenal, kind,... and caring, supportive and overall easy going. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how beautiful the location was, and howgood the food is. I would highly recommend the Foundry for a private event, dinner or drinks. Kudos to Mary and her team. Thankyou for helping to make the day so special. Read more
Like a total rookie, I waited until a few days prior to Mother's Day to start investigating brunch options. I don't recommend... that approach. Thankfully, Foundry was more than willing to accommodate me, and my mom and I stopped by this past Sunday. Theparking was super easy to locate/utilize - if there are no available spaces right by the building, there's a spacious lot alittle further away. Unfortunately, it was pretty nippy/gloomy out, otherwise I would have tried to take advantage of theoutdoor seating options overlooking the river. Regardless, the inside is pleasant as well, and we were seated in a dining roomto the left of the entrance with lots of black and white pictures on the wall and tasteful wood paneling; several reviewersmentioned modern farmhouse vibes, and I second that sentiment. It was a little chaotic when we first came in and it took a fewminutes to be seated. Not a big deal, and everyone we encountered was super nice and apologetic (which was unnecessary in myopinion but still a classy touch). At my insistence, we split the short rib dumplings app ($15), and ended up both getting thesame entree, the bread pudding French toast ($18). The dumplings were very flavorful, and I can see why they're so popular.Texture wise it was a little too crunchy for my palate - I think there were pickled onions or some type of crispy cabbage inthere. One of the main reasons I enjoy dumplings (and its sibling the empanada) is because they contain a lot of scrumptiousitems that I normally wouldn't eat because of texture, but they're basically melded together within the shell or dumpling soit's not as noticeable. That's not the case here, and your mileage may vary on this. I was a big fan of the bread puddingFrench toast, which is exactly what it sounds like. Great consistency, great taste, and the fruit compote/berries they usedcomplemented the bread pudding well. It was super filling though, and I was pretty stuffed afterwards. My mom didn't finish h Read more
I had a great meal at this place. The staff was very kind and helped me pick an item that I might like, since this was my first... time dining with them. The Chicken Madras Curry was unexpected for a place like this, but it was surprisingly good. I willdefinitely eat here again when I have an opportunity. Read more
We sat outside, and with the beautiful weather it was just the best option. The place has a nice view from the outside tables.... It is really cute. The food was delicious. We arrive to what seemed to be a shift change but that was not a problem at all. Wegot our appetizer and in a really timed manner our entries. Almost as soon as we were done with the shared appetizer. The tunawas delicious! Read more
I recently had my baby shower at the Foundry loft (the upstairs floor), and had an absolutely wonderful experience. Mary and her... event staff were very easy to work with - extremely personable, accommodating, and organized. The space itself is quaint andsophisticated, with windows surrounding the entire room and a skylight. It's a truly unique space for any sort of special event.We opted for brunch food which was so delicious and all of the guests were raving about how good it was. I strongly considerlooking into Foundry for your event... or even just for a nice dinner out! Read more
