Love this place! The ambiance and food is absolutely stellar. My partner and I have celebrated several occasions at Hen of the... Woods and will happily return for more. Their Parker house rolls are quite possibly the most delicious bread you'll taste inVermont. Soft pillows of deliciousness. I generally end up ordering most, if not all of the small plates, for great sharingoptions and to really get a sense of the entire menu. Don't skip on the cured ham if that's available, or their signaturemushroom toast, and be sure to leave room for a cheese or two to end your meal. Cocktails are delightful and use local spiritsand ingredients, reflecting the overall ethos of the restaurant. I recommend this place for cozy dates, big celebrations, andany time you want to enjoy local products. Read more
Nice fresh plates, but a little too hyped up and expensive. Food was alright but nothing was mind blowing. Cocktails were... creative and delicious, but expensive. The cheapest bottle of wine that was offered was $50… It’s one of those places whereyou go and check out once, but don’t make it a regular spot. Service was kind and attentive. All the staff there are reallynice and knowledgeable. I also liked the rustic decor and the open kitchen concept as well. Read more
Hen of the wood is an incredibly quality restaurant and has earned its solid reputation. Went there for a date night and while... it’s definitely on the more expensive side, it’s worth it. I had the grilled broccoli entree and my boyfriend has theporchetta, we were wildly impressed. We also ordered two different cheese plates which never fail to delight. Drinks were greattoo. The ambience is really rustic but modern, and I felt super comfortable. Service was incredibly kind and attentive.Definitely a great place for a more special occasion! Read more

Last minute Walk-in and were offered a spot at the bar. Best decision of the day. The pastrami duck was an delicious surprise... and the work put into the veggies definitely shows. My personal highlight, the olive oil cake. You will not be disappointed! Read more
We were invited to Hen of the Wood while we were in Burlington and I couldn’t have been happier with our experience. They... have taken great care to cultivate a fine dining ambience that is not overcrowded or pretentious. The Farm To Table experienceoffered is one of the things we love most about the town of Burlington, Vermont. The food itself is delicious. We had a varietyof cold seafood, steaks, vegetables and dessert - all were excellent. Do not skip dessert. Their olive oil lemon cake is SOGOOD. ???? I promise it’s worth all of the calories!

What a lovely farm to table experience this place provides! My friend and I were not disappointed as we truly enjoyed the... experience they provided for us. Our waiter Chris did a fantastic job of explaining everything to us and being honest about theselection of food. We enjoyed the pear appetizer along with the duck and the swordfish. I highly recommend all the above as thefood was exquisite and memorable! I wish I lived in the area so I could come back and eat there again often. Read more
