Reviews for MaryScott’s Kitchen in New Harmony, IN
Edited to add: Just because it is the law doesn't mean either establishment should RUDELY tell us to leave. We walked in with... our 8 month old son and the lady rudely told us that no one under 21 is allowed. It's a shame a town that welcomes family'sdoesn't have any family restaurants. Will not be coming back. Read more
We escaped to New Harmony to enjoy a relaxed birthday weekend. We make the three-hour drive every couple of years to enjoy the... calm, peace, and serenity that defines New Harmony. After reading reviews we decided to give MaryScott's a try on our firstnight. We were welcomed and seated by Scott and immediately were taken in by the friendliness and atmosphere. The menupresented was NOT the steak, burger and chicken wing selection you might expect in a small river town in rural southern Indiana. The offerings were as tantelizing as what you might expect in a trendy bistro along Rush Street in Chicago. Checks in all theboxes so far. Would the food live up to the billing? The goat cheese appetizer and Caesar Salad left no room for improvementand only heigtened the anticipaiton for the arrival of the entrees. We went with the suggested wine pairings for our entreesand they were delightful and made even more enjoyable at $6/glass. My wife had the Shrimp and Grits which was outstanding. Ihad the Garlic Ginger Chili Shrimp. All I can say is that Scott's wife Mary is a magician in the kithen. We topped the eveningsplitting a chocolate creme brulee which only added to the experience. We were in town for two nights. Guess where we ate thesecond night? Hat's off to a couple living their dream and making people happy with REALLY good food and dining experiences inthe process. This gives us a reason to make our visits to this haven more frequent. I highly recommend that if you findyourself in New Harmony, that you do not miss an opportunity to experience MaryScott's.

This is undoubtedly the BEST restaurant I have had the pleasure of dining in. The owner Scott is very personable and takes great... pride to ensure his guests are happy and welk cared for. Please do yourself and your loved ones a favor and take them on theculinary adventure of a lifetime! Read more
The food was overall very good (my pork chop was a very good cut of meat and was done perfectly but also way over seasoned and... too salty) but unfortunately the rudeness and unappreciative behavior of the cook and waiter really ruined the entire experiencefor our group. For the prices they charge in a town like New Harmony - I would expect to be treated much better. I would not goback. Read more
A truly incredible, fresh, decadent dining experience! Best steak in the tri-state! The owners are the most welcoming folk who... truly care about the customers dining experience. Read more
I want to like MaryScott's since my wife had a good lunch here before. We came on St. Pats day and were disappointed. First... the menu on the web site described the dishes, but the menu handout did not. Then the food was served on paper trays. Theysaid it was to make their life easier. Well it wasn't much fun digging beef stew off the paper liner. Which is a shame becausethe stew was good, although I didn't see any carrots and celery mentioned on the menu. Another dish we had was corned beef andcabbage but... how do you cut a thick slice of meat on a paper tray and where was the cabbage? Note: they apparently do haveplates. We might try them again if we get over this way. Response to owner - paper trays are fine for finger food likefish'n'chips in a casual bar type setting - but neither stew nor a slab of corned beef can be enjoyed out of a paper tray. Ifwe as customers have to educate service staff in how to serve food, we're consulting, not dining. Read more
Wonderful special Valentine's dinner with different options. All of the food was delicious not one thing we didn't like. Very... friendly staff who took care of us and took time to answer our questions. Read more
