Reviews for The Cottage in Westport, CT

A little too noisy for my liking and the chair was uncomfortable, but the food was good (scallops) and well presented. Wait... staff was excellent. Just so you know, the burger is $24. Read more

Great food. Chilled atmosphere. We sat outside. Burrata was creamy, pork belly was succulent. Pasta dishes were delicious- sweet... corn tortellini and hand-rolled garganelli. Only thing was to be charged double for wine, without acknowledgement. Hoping it wasan innocent mistake, but still an extra $100 on the bill. We’d probably repeat with caution. Read more

Love this place, I’ve here so many times and the food is always delicious and consistent. Highly recommended.

We had dinner here last week to celebrate my wife’s birthday and were both extremely impressed with the dining experience. ... Excellent service, delicious, perfectly prepared and beautifully presented food dishes. The bottled wine list is expensive buthas a very nice selection. The atmosphere is perfect and our server was delightful. We can highly recommend and can’t wait tocome back. Read more

Every meal I’ve had here has been incredible— a true fine dining experience in an unpretentious, cozy space. Staff is... friendly and attentive, and the food is simply amazing. Great for a romantic meal, or for a special occasion. Read more

We had the cod crepe, scallop on crispy rice, lobster spaghetti and the… I forgot which white fish, but everything was so... delicious. Service was also excellent. Read more

Service: impeccable. Food: Completely hit or miss. We’ve been here twice and have given it a well rounded shot. ~30% of the... menu has an Asian influence, which is not the chef’s strong suit. Overall, if The Cottage stuck to their America roots, themeals would be a lot more successful. There were some very high points (see below), but overall I will not be returning.Individual dish notes below. Amazing dishes/drinks: deviled eggs, squash agnolotti, spicy pear drink, sticky toffeepudding Good dishes: fois gras, crab toast, chocolate pot de crème Mediocre dishes (Asian influence): spicy squid andbroccoli (squid two ways, both overcooked), Maine halibut (very overcooked, vague curry flavoring), duck fried rice (duckovercooked and overall not great). Mediocre dishes (other): shaved radish toast, dulce de leche cake (reminiscent of somethingfrom The Cheesecake Factory) Read more

Such a great restaurant! The food is terrific here, you must get the brisket buns and the scallops on crispy rice. The lobster... pasta is delicious, albeit something you can kind of get anywhere. The true standout of the meal was the martini I had- icecold, just the way it should be served! Ambiance was great and since we went during Coronavirus it’s worth mentioning howclean this restaurant was. Read more
