The Kitchen Table

This was a no for us. Food was meh. Egg undercooked on benny, muffin overcooked, ham was way too thick and chewy. Coffee came with disposable creamer packets which seemed weird. Husband ordered hunters bfast, his eggs were way overcooked and same thick chewy ham steak. Our son’s pancakes were nice and fluffy so there’s that but he didn’t like the chocolate milk, said it was bitter. After tasting it seems like use dark chocolate or something similar which just didn’t taste good. Ambiance was awkward, I get that it’s an old house but it just didn’t vibe. Service was pleasant.

Stopped here and sat at the bar for my husband's birthday. Our bartender was excellent, she was attentive, super welcoming, made great drinks, and even put a little candle in my husband's dessert. I had the salmon which was delicious, he got a perfectly cooked pork chop. If we find ourselves back in Richmond we will definitely be back in.

In a small town right off interstate 89, is a gem of a restaurant. In an unassuming, renovated old farmhouse is The Kitchen Table. This cozy restaurant offers top notch food and drink. We started with poutine topped with short ribs. It was fantastic!! Could have been a full meal. I had the warm rice bowl topped with short rib, my dinning companions had the schnitzel and the catch of the day. All of the food was great and I would definitely recommend trying this great place. Reservations are recommended.

Dropped in here because of the high rating. Service and atmosphere was good but food was mediocre at best. I ordered fried chicken and it was very overcooked, very dry. It was paired with fries that were warm not hot and grilled seasonal vegetables which I took to be plural but it was green beens only which were okay. My wife had the steak which was cooked well and my daughter had the pasta who rated it 7/10. So for the prices there, I was expecting more.

Lived up to the expectations. Usually a place of this price tier, the portions are on the smaller side, not here. Wanted to try dessert, but honestly was too full. Will def be back. Our host was very attentive and social which added to the experience.

A wonderful, charming restaurant right off I-89 in between Richmond and Williston, you’d never know The Kitchen Table was there unless you took the exit! This restaurant is located in an old brick house with beautiful landscaping, and it has a great atmosphere, excellent service, and amazing food! They use fresh, local ingredients, and they rotate their menu several times throughout the year. There are always great specials, so be sure to ask your waiter/waitress what they are! They have amazing fresh dinner rolls to start, and we got the heirloom tomato burrata and a salad with mozzarella and fresh local berries as our appetizers. The heirloom tomatoes were the best we’ve ever had - huge and beautiful, and the salad was exceptionally fresh! We got the beer braised short ribs as our entree and that was awesome. It didn’t have a bone, but it was so tender if it did have one, it would be completely fall-off-the-bone. They make amazing Brussels sprouts that come with the short ribs as well!! BE SURE to save room for dessert! They have really really good dessert options, and we got the Matilda cake (a massive chocolate cake inspired by that one scene in the movie), crème caramel, and dark chocolate coconut tart. The crème caramel was actually our favorite - one of the best desserts we’ve had anywhere in Vermont! All in all, this is an amazing local place, perfect for celebrating any occasion, or just for a nice date night. Check it out!!

Oh, my goodness. This was the second time I visited Kitchen Table for brunch and it was just as impressive as the first. I ordered the eggs Benedict with broccolini and gluten free toast. The hollandaise sauce was the best I’ve ever had, and I’m admittedly a sauce snob. Perfectly salted and lemony, without being overly thick or rich. The French toast that my partner ordered was a delicious combination of lightly crisped crust and thick and fluffy insides. The server was so friendly and attentive, and really in tune with how frequently to stop by our table. She refreshed our coffees without us having to ask, and was knowledgeable about the menu and local ingredients. This place is a diamond in the rough of Vermont eateries. Extremely high quality food and service, local ingredients, and to top it all off, reasonable prices in today’s economy. Well done, and see you soon Kitchen Table! (I would have shared photos but I was too hungry and the food was too good.)

We dined there last Sat and had a lovely meal. Our server was friendly and fun and despite the pouring rain the interior of the restaurant was warm and cozy. My husband’s steak was perfect and delicious. My only disappointment is the grain bowl. I’m a vegetarian and I don’t want pasta every time. The grain bowl was delicious but it costs $28 for quinoa and vegetables. That’s a price one would pay for chicken and fish. I reached out to Craig, the owner, via email but never heard back. I wanted to discuss the cost of the dish out of curiosity. I’m leaving my review only to alert other vegetarians that our food options cost a lot here. If you eat and seafood you will be very happy.

What an amazing find! We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant and are so glad we did! It is set in a beautiful house and garden. Has a lovely locally sourced menu. We enjoyed the cucumber soup and the tomato Burrata as well as the macaroni and cheese and the special, mushroom ravioli with scallops. The finale was the Matilda cake. Delicious all the way round!

Our food was pretty good. The fried brussel sprouts were delicious! My husband got the fried chicken and it was truly half a chicken. The food did seem a bit pricey for the portions. Our server was fine. Friendly enough. The ambiance was quite eclectic. Average volume. There was quite a a mix of people here. I would visit again.

I'd been excited to try this restaurant for months, but with the elevated price point, I was waiting for just the right occasion. Finally, the stars aligned and my husband and I found ourselves with a spontaneous date night, so we decided to treat ourselves. The restaurant has changed hands a few times over the years, recently returning to its original name, which I took as a promising sign. The atmosphere was cozy yet comfortable, the service warm, and the homemade rolls were a delightful start that had us feeling optimistic. Unfortunately, that's where the excitement ended. We ordered an appetizer, drinks, and a couple of mains. The brussels sprouts appetizer came out burnt, drowned in sauce, and cooked down to a sticky, "candied" texture. It was a baffling execution - so many rookie mistakes in one dish, it was genuinely shocking. At this price point, something like that shouldn't make it out of the kitchen. The mains were no better. I had the grain bowl with chicken, which was bland, lukewarm, and came with chicken that was questionably undercooked. My husband had the lasagna, which was under-seasoned and similarly flavorless. Throughout the night, I kept noticing staff coming out of the kitchen to hang out in the lobby, chatting and laughing with other team members - while food quality clearly wasn't being prioritized behind the scenes. For the cost ($30 - $46 for mains), the whole experience left a bad taste in our mouths - literally and figuratively. Sure, we could have said something, but the breakdowns were so fundamental, it felt like a systemic issue rather than a one-off. It put a damper on what was otherwise a lovely night. We love supporting local spots and truly wanted this one to be great. Sadly, we won't be returning.

Stopped for brunch on our road trip through Vermont and was SO glad we did. My son says the pancakes were possibly the best he's had. I can attest that they were very fluffy and would highly recommend. The corned beef hash was wonderful, and that biscuit??? Just do it. Everything was great and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. Loved the feel of the place. Feels like you're eating in someone's home. Not overly crowded or noisyIf you are in the area.... Put this on your stops!

The food here will leave you SPEECHLESS. From beginning to end our meal here was perfection on a plate. My boyfriend and I were visiting Burlington for our anniversary and happened to stop here on the recommendation of our Airbnb host. This restaurant is about 27 mins proper from downtown Burlington, and trust me- it is WORTH IT to come here for this dining experience. We had the brussel sprouts as an appetizer to start along with two of their non alcoholic mocktails and we were blown away by the depth of flavors. At this point, the bar had been set so high that we were eagerly awaiting to get the entrees and then we were again left completely floored with how delicious everything tasted! (I got the pork chop with roasted red pepper chimichurri and garlic mash and my bf got the beef bourguignon). The pork was tender and juicy and soooo flavorful, it was an absolute delight to savor every bite. Then for dessert we tried the strawberry shortcake with vanilla bean whipped cream- a wonderful way to cap off this fantastic meal! The restaurant itself has a wonderful rustic/romantic vibe to it, so it was perfect for our anniversary dinner. I would ABSOLUTELY come back here and in fact, i will be bookmarking this restaurant for all of my future trips to Burlington!

Absolutely beautiful building and ambiance, great service, and the food was so good I had to finish my plate even though I was full.

Phenomenal meal. Don't miss the Brussels sprouts or burrata. The scallop dish was great as well, but the desserts were next level! I ate myself sick and I regret nothing. Prices were fair for huge serving sizes that we all comfortably shared. The service was great, the atmosphere was lovely (in a converted home I think), and the whole experience was a delight.

Great food, service, love the interior and different seating options. This is in Richmond and one of my favorite restaurants in the area. Fantastic brunch.

Just ate dinner here with my family. Ordered the "Greens" expecting a salad but it was literally just lettuce and salad dressing. My Dad ordered the ribeye but got an unrecognizable piece of grizzle. He couldn't even cut it.

The food and service here is simply amazing. I attended a friends rehearsal dinner here and couldn't have been more impressed. The banquet menu was absolutely phenomenal. The restaurant delivered the farm to table menu very well and this was actually the best meal I had in Vermont. The appetizers were very good and passed frequently. My favorite part of the meal was the entree, the butchers steak, which was very tender and just melted in your mouth. I sadly only took pictures of the dessert, but I must say the apple cake was the group favorite. The banquet menu is to die for so I can only imagine how delicious the seasonal menus are. I hope to be able to try them someday in the not to distant future!

The Kitchen Table Bistro was one of the most amazing meals that we have had in Vermont! Why didn't we think of this earlier? Eating a farm to table meal in Vermont! Which was one of the fine states where farm to table was happening everyday, long before "farm-to-table" ever became a movement! Food. OMG the food! We ordered the candy-striped beet with fried brussel sprouts salad, half of dozen of Malpeque oysters, steak tartare, roasted pork shoulder, apple-cider mussels, and chicken liver pate. The food was so delicious! I would order everything again, except for maybe the pork shoulder. That was a little dry. Location. The Kitchen Table Bistro (KTB) is located right by the highway in Richmond. In the dark, you don't even see the signs, so it looks like you are pulling up to someone's large house. We all asked each other if we were in the right place, but the 20 cars in the parking lot (and Google maps) confirmed that we were. Ambience The restaurant is located on the first floor. The Bistro has 3 small dining rooms and a large area for the bar. The restaurant is so charming, with wooden panels and sturdy wood dining tables and chairs. The waiter was wonderful, so polite and gave great beer recommendations. (Vermont beer is awesome!) Food. My favorites were the oysters and the chicken liver pate. The Malpeque oysters were these cold plump, briny oysters. My brother, who never had a raw oyster said 'That was really good!' Yes! It was amazing! Some of the best oysters that I've ever had. And the homemade champagne-mignonette was perfectly sour-sweet accompaniment. The homemade ketchup was a vinegared ketchup, and very good. I would use the homemade mignonette or eat the oysters on their own. The oysters didn't need any help being delicious. The chicken liver pate was smooth as silk and glided on my tongue. It was perfect with the mustard sauce or by itself. K closed his eyes to enjoy this wonderful mouthful. I wished we ordered two! One for me and one for my dining companions. The candy-striped beet were these perfectly tender roasted sweet white and red striped beet cubes. So good. And the fried brussel sprouts were very addictive. K, me and my brother kept helping ourselves to this dish until it was gone! The unami-sweet steak tartare was bright cherry-red and topped with a sunshine-yellow quail egg. The steak was a coarsely ground and tasted grass fed. It was so good. We all kept scooping the tartare on crispy bbq flavored chips and going 'MMMmmm!' The steak tartare came with a salad. A bonus was K got to try a Vermont delicacy: fiddleheads! And he liked it! The apple-cider mussels were perfectly plump and had the best sauce! We kept dipping the crispy toasted garlic bread into the sweet-savory cheesy sauce. Amazing amazing meal. The only reason that the food wasn't perfectly executed was due to the very dry all-day roasted pork shoulder. The polenta was velvety and the roasted baby turnips were so savory sweet! I was saddened by the dry beautifully rubbed pork. I will definitely be back to sample their ever changing seasonal menu! Thank you Kitchen Table Bistro!

Exceptional at every level. From the menu and environment, to the staff, this is an inspired effort. A do not miss experience. Soups were complex and hearty, sides are prepared with the same care and attention as the entre' (Best greens and polenta I have ever had) and my short rib main course was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Can't wait to return.

Friday evening, we enjoyed dinner at The Kitchen Table Bistro. Enjoyed is an understatement. We've dined at KTB many times over the years, and have always experienced a memorable meal. I thought I'd settled in on the Gnocchi until our server mentioned the evening special - all-day short ribs over a summer veg medley. She had me at all-day short ribs. I was not disappointed - meat was fall off the bone tender and oh so flavorful. As long as we live here, we'll keep returning.

My Mom and I are staying a local B&B in Jericho - this restaurant came highly recommended by the two owners; everything was absolutely beyond delicious. Our waitress Kimberly was one of the best waitresses I've ever had, I told her this meal was one of the top meals {start to finish, including the wine} that I have ever had. If you are in the area, you NEED to come to The Kitchen Table Bistro. I love that everything is farm to table! If we are ever back in Vermont, we will definitely come back to this local gem.

Excellent breakfast and service. We went during the week with the $4.99 special and we got a LOT of food! We shared the pancakes and they were huge and delicious. The next day we went back I got the French toast which was perfect. Great place!

A quaint little place for dinner dates. The food was amazing and the waiter was so polite. When asked about the "mystery" ingredient ,he went inside and came back explaining everything about the order. If you are looking for a vegetarian dish I would strong recommend the ricotta gnocchi with tomatoes and the maple custard for dessert. If we ever visit Richmond side of Vermont again we will definitely go back here!!

This was our first time at this restaurant while visiting Vermont. We started with nice warm bread and sea salt butter. Was disappointed we got the end pieces for the bread as we paid for it, but just a small thing. The appetizer was octopus and was cooked to perfection was not chewy at all. It came with a yogurt sauce which I loved. For an entree I had the lamb which was also cooked perfectly and had some potatoes and mushrooms. My wife had short ribs which were cooked to falling apart, which was so tasty. Lastly the creme brûlée was probably he the creamiest and most flavourful one I've ever had. I would would definitely come back here again if visiting Vermont in the future.

This place was a real treat. We came to Vermont to visit family and decided we should check out the "Farm To Table" restaurants as every road you go on you see actual farms. The restaurant is a cosy space that looks like a large estate, inside you see multiple dining rooms downstairs and upstairs. The parking lot was packed and you should absolutely call for reservations. We ordered the Massachusetts Malpeque Oysters special which were super fresh and flavorful accompanied by a home-made ketchup. I loved every bite and wished for more, great starter. The chicken liver pate was savory and bright without being heavy. Perfect with the mustard sauce and bread. I really liked the candy-stripped beets with fried brussel sprouts, it was a pretty and beautiful looking dish on display, and tasted crisp and refreshing. The steak tartare was delicious to the last bite served with Vermont summer greens and crispy potato chips. Normally at Farm to Table restaurants I enjoy the appetizers than the main course, largely because I enjoy new and refreshing takes on greens and flavors rather than the traditional heavily dish. The Dinner Table was very similar, we decided to get more appetizers than main course. The main course, the roast pork was solidly executed with a nice savory sauce and polenta, but not a standout. I really enjoyed my experience and the service was excellent. Since we're New Yorkers it was nice to have the authentic experience as well as pay a reasonable price for it. Highly enjoyable after a week of hiking up mountains.

We were there on Friday night. The restaurant is a remodeled home. The server was a tall gentleman who was very helpful, sweet and knowledgeable about the dishes. The chicken we had was amazing and so was the vegetarian dishes. I would have given 5 stars but the portion of the desert was too tiny and felt we paid for a spoonful of desert. But everything else was quite good

Wow! The food has amazing flavor, was well balanced, correct portion sizes and the service was great too! To Start: Bread (was served warm) and that sea salt butter was amazing. It is definitely worth 2 bucks. "last of the season tomatoes" - the tomatoes tasted so fresh and the burrata was MmmmM.. Steak Tartare - This was good, but I think we've had better in major cities such as NYC/Chicago. Main: Pork Shoulder - Very tender and the sweet relish was amazing Short Rib - OMG! Get. This. Every bite was full of a flavor explosion. Dessert: Dark chocolate pudding - Great! Not bitter at all, fresh whipped cream! If anything I just wish it was a bit bigger! Blueberry buckle - Very good as well, lots of butter :)

I went there in the Fall 2016 - my favorite restaurant in VT, the best of the farm-to-table. It is pricey but worth every penny. Starting with the bread as the appetizer - wow, fresh baked, good thick cut, wonderful butter. We tried several dishes - the first was the liver pattee - so smooth and rich. We had the fresh beet salad, that had such a crisp, fresh taste. The setting is very small and intimate, but food was top notch. Unforunatley it has been so long I can't recall the other dishes. But overall it was the best food in VT i have ever had. It is much easier to get a table here than comperable restaurants such as hen of the wood in burlington and I think the food is better and cheaper.

This has a lovely atmosphere for a special-occasion dinner, and the service is impeccable. Nevertheless, I feel the food at the more-casual Farmhouse is better. Like the Farmhouse, it offers locally-sourced food in straightforward-but-well-executed standards. (And for the record, I think they should switch names. The Farmhouse has a great community feel to it, and the Kitchen Table is actually an old farmhouse in RIchmond, right were it starts getting rural as you go east from Burlington. But I digress.) We started with a cheese plate ($9), which had two great offerings from two Vermont cheese makers, Vermont Butter and Cheese and Thistle Hill. (Unlike The Farmhouse, you don't get to pick your own from a list.) It come with grilled, locally made Red Hen bread (just like at The Farmhouse!) The chicken liver pate ($9) was quite good...but, um, well, not nearly as good as The Farmhouse's pate. Same for the nevertheless excellent house-made spiced apple butter. (Yes, I know: the Farmhouse is becoming like your mother's friend's daughter about whom you were always hearing from your mother. "Sheila made the cheerleading squad! Sheila got all A's! Sheila won her cello competition! Sheila just got a scholarship! Sheila's mother must be soooo proud!" I'm sorry Kitchen Table; I know it is terrible to be always compared to your mother's friend's daughter, but (like my mother) I just can't help myself. But if you worked at it just a *little* harder, like Sheila supposedly does, I'm sure you could be *just* as good!) For our meal, we got a wonderful piece of locally raised pork (about $26, smaller portion for $14) with this addictively outSTANDINGly crispy herbed spaetzle -- but sadly, the chard it came with was inedibly salty. And I do so love my chard... I do love that many of their entrees are offered as smaller portions for smaller prices. I think the $$$ rating is not absolutely accurate, since you can have a good meal here for under $30. I must also mention that I came here a few years ago and ordered scallops, and I've never had better before or after. (The Farmhouse does not offer scallops...) Moreover, I have never had dessert here, and that is for what the owner Lara is renowned. So save yourself some room for desert. I'll make a point of it next time. Had I never been to The Farmhouse, I might have given The Kitchen Table Bistro 5 stars. If you want a fine-dining atmosphere by a cozy fireplace in a historic old home, be sure to make reservations at The Kitchen Table. If you want amazing food, head for The Farmhouse. (Just for the record, "Sheila" landed up nearly failing out of college.)

We visited the KTB as part of a wedding trip to Vermont. We stayed right down the road at a lovely AirBNB (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/2240539); and, after already bookmarking the restaurant, the AirBNB host confirmed that KTB is their favorite. Let me start by saying that the exterior and interior are beautiful. I was also impressed with the knowledgeable staff, including a sommelier who totally nailed choosing two bottles that were suitable for the drastically different tastes at our table. Knowing that we were likely never going to get back to KTB, we decided to order a couple of appetizers to share: cherry tomatoes, barrata, basil vinagrette, micro greens, pepitas; and, fried green tomatoes, habanero crema. We also shared a couple of entrees: pork loin, crispy polenta, chard, summer squash; and, tagliatelle bolognese, cherry tomatoes, shredded farmers cheddar. We finished with two orders of a supremely fantastic dessert: southern style chocolate cake, bing cherry compote, mint ice cream. I'll remember this meal for a long time. It was made with fresh ingredients and a thoughtful eye to presentation. Everything was cooked to perfection, making the entire meal, start to finish, a memorable experience. We left by way of the kitchen, where we offered our compliments to the chef, a young, friendly guy who can cook his butt off. I highly recommend KTB for date night, family night, or really any night of food and wine.

I like Kitchen Table because it's in Richmond, and Richmond is a fun little town to go to, or at any rate, I like Richmond. I like it because it's located in a very old farmhouse. The location isn't awesome, or at least it feels a bit odd because it's close to the highway and right on a main road, but when you're inside you never notice that. Another reason I like Kitchen Table is the food can be very good. I've pretty much always loved my savory dishes there. Very few times I've had less than very very good savory plates. The desserts have been consistently disappointing for me, which is surprising because I think one of the owners is a pastry chef (?) I may be off on that. The owners are in the process of selling the business. Or they are closing it. I'm not sure exactly what's going on. I will miss this restaurant. I didn't go there frequently, but when I did go out was always a special occasion. Always a treat. The room with the bar was my favorite. I've been told that the bar makes/made some fabulous drinks. If you have the time and can get a table before it closes you should definitely pay a visit. The braised meats are especially wonderful.

Kitchen Table Bistro was recommended by our innkeeper at the Sinclair in Jericho, who was also kind enough to make a same-day reservation. This was a smart recommendation and my friends and I were smart to act on it! What followed was a memorable meal, one of the best I have had in Vermont. The host (owner?) chatted with us as our table was being set up and I was impressed that our excellent waiter had received this beta about our party and continued the conversation. This is an unusual level of communication in most any business. The meal format was a 3 course prix fixe, with small plate, large plate, dessert and a leisurely pace (allow the time, you won't regret it). Let's just say that we did not leave hungry! Cocktails and every other drink was spot-on, and we particularly enjoyed the Hill Farmstead brews that were on-tap. The variety of dishes that we ordered were all fresh, delicious and perfectly prepared. My own small cheese plate (Cabot Clothbound Cheddar was one of them) and steak frite (+$5) were superb. The local produce of Vermont is top-notch and this restaurant showcases these ingredients well. The farm-house suite of rooms that make up the restaurant provide for an intimate dining experience, so be prepared to enjoy your companions and waiter without much in the way of distractions, which worked well for us. Lastly, our waiter was a joy: unusually skilled and professional, and an interesting and lively conversationalist when we showed interest in chatting. We shall return!

A great dinner in Richmond, Vermont. Roasted beet salad and heirloom tomato salad to start along with the fresh bread with olive tapenade and butter. Pork loin for main and then finished with the open face sundae. Super delicious and excellent service. Thanks for a great experience. One of our very favorite restaurants.

Vermont really does right with all these farm to table restaurants, locally sourced, organic non gmo cooked food. I was here with a large group of 23 people and surprisingly the food was nice and fresh as it came out and had good flavor. Lacked salt for my beet appetizer but was nice and light. The steak was nice and juicy but the side onions were overcooked and did not quite compliment the dish. Star of the show was the creme brûlée which was fabulous. Rich, buttery, great consistency. Great little place in Vermont.

Great service, great selection, top notch quality. Had the oysters - great size and nice house sauce. Had the lamb - well done with some nice creamed spinach that is sat on. Had the salmon - perfectly done. This is a great place to go for date night.

Second Time and Wow Table was nice wait staff were impeccable. As somebody with a shell fish allergy its always a risk going out and cross contamination has ruined more than a few nights for me. The staff went so far as to make me aware that they had deep fried oysters in the fry oil and told me what to avoid on that alone this establishment stands out. I had the Blue cheese Burger and my wife had the halibut both were excellent but the stand out star of the evening was the foraged mushroom toast great combination of flavors and just enough acidity to cut through the richness of the cheese best thing I've eaten in a very long time. So glad this is local.

This is our go-to for good food in Richmond. Every meal we have had here has been great. The staff is fantastic -- always friendly and on top of their game getting food out to the tables. And there is usually a fun, new cocktail creation to try.

Classy ambiance. Local ingredients. Yummy drinks. Since the restaurant itself is up for sale, we wanted to check out one of our favorites together again before the inevitable. Went for dinner with a friend on a Thursday night and sat at the bar, located in one of the rooms further in the back. There are plenty of seating options in the many tabled rooms, there must be three or four (including the bar), and it looks like there is cafe style seating out by the main entrance in the garden. The bartender was friendly and happy to make reservations as well as find out the answers to our many questions about the food, secret ingredients, preparation, etc. With four Vermont beers on tap, I settled into a Drop-In Brewery ESB and my friend got a delightful concoction of Bar Hill Gin, grapefruit, and toasted rosemary -- a truly elegant taste! A round of appetizers later (the mussels (sauce was incredible!) and steak tartare (complete with quail egg)), we started in on our main entrees: Grilled Steak with frites and the House Ground Burger. All cooked to a perfect medium rare. We finished off the night with house blended ice cream (four spice vanilla!). It was a delightful evening from drinks to dessert; I'm hopeful for the next phase of the restaurant but until then, get in and try out a dish while you can!

From the second we walked over the large utensils on the porch into this establishment we were delighted. We were a party of four. The 3-course meal was amazing! The freshly made pasta was the best I have ever had. The guys chose the Laplatte Farms steak. Of course all four of us cleaned all three courses off from our beautiful plates. My favorite was the mussels. Don't be fooled. It is under the small plate section of the menu. This is a meal folks! Can't wait to go back! Thanks for such a nice evening Kitchen Table.

Sooooooo good. Everything was perfect top to bottom. Definitely top 5 restaurants I've ever been to and I've been to a bunch here and abroad. Tempted to make the drive up from Connecticut again just to go to the KTB. It really is that good.

The yummiest! Highly recommend to any and all. Perfect for a romantic evening or date night, or just a burger. Fabulous cocktails, service and atmosphere. Always a go to for our celebrations!

Love their commitment to local ingredients and quality, interesting food, but we were disappointed with the current menu and the service on last night's visit. Service was very slow at all stages. We ordered a first course to share, salads and main courses. The salads arrived before the first course and we had to ask not to receive the first course until we finished our salads bc there was no room on our very tiny deuce table. The octopus was perfection, as was my Caesar. The tiny quail main dish was tasty. Gnocchi with pork neck,way too salty, and gnocchi were mushy and formless, disappointing. We miss the old menu which had more mains and fewer small plates. Good. No longer great. UPDATE: although it took him some real detective work to find me, I received a follow up call from the manager after posting this mixed review. He was open and said everything that needed to be said. I stand by my observations, But I really appreciate that the management cares so much they followed up in this incredibly individual manner. Well handled. We will be back.

This place is in an old transformed home right off the highway...we actually drove straight past it because we didn't expect it to look like that. The food was great...small portions but really good. The "fancy" mac and cheese was $17 and was good, had ham and loads of cheese, making it very rich but tasty. My bf got the misty knoll chicken leg ($17)...yes chicken leg, no breast/wing- anything fun, BUT was very tasty. It came over kale which was also fresh. The server was friendly but sllloooowwww. It kinda seems to be a running theme around that area. Also, he over charged on the chicken and when we caught the mistake, he quickly fixed it. But that always leaves me suspicious. Never the less, was a great place and I am also surprised that there are not more reviews...it was packed on Saturday night!

Not so hidden gem in Richmond. Plan ahead, make a reservation. It's worth it. The Kitchen Table Bistro is chef owned and it shows. You can taste in the food how much the owners and staff enjoy what they do. Tempura fiddleheads and asparagus was UNBELIEVABLE with a mouth watering aioli. I could eat this dish everyday. You do not eat this dish out of the obligation to "eat your vegetables". You eat it because you want to. The creme brûlée was the absolute best I have ever had in a restaurant. The custard was melt in your mouth smooth. The carmelized sugar was done to perfection. We are to much and we still wanted more.

The Kitchen Table is hands down one of the best restaurants around! The food is consistently delicious and the service stellar. The atmosphere is elegant, yet homey. Not only are you getting a great dining experience, you also experience a bit of Vermont's history due to the location.

Had much higher expectations after reading the NYT review. The special apple and squash soup appetizer was very good. The chicken rillette appetizer was OK. I know you're supposed to serve this chilled, but I found it too cold; plus it was messy to eat. The bread to nibble on was excellent! The entrees were largely disappointments. The steelhead over mashed potatoes and spinach was acceptable, but nothing particularly interesting. The other entree was supposed to be the special - pork loin with apples and onions over spaetzle, which sounded perfect considering it was a dark, cold and stormy night. The problem was that I am sure that wasn't loin, but a thin boneless chop. It was rimmed with fat, just like a chop. Regardless of its actual cut (well, that does make a difference because it influences how, and how long you cook the meat), the meat had been brined for too long and was over salty, and contained gristle. A place that is aiming for sophisticated meals, needs to take more care in preparing the foundation of its special entrees. The spaetzle was good, but the apple onion mixture's sweetness was a bit much. The wine list was on the small side, but we found a nice cabernet from Sonoma (Deleyth), which we were able to leisurely finish, because once we declined dessert, the waitress disappeared for 20 minutes, which was longer than we had wanted to stay.

Seriously after this trip to Vermont..and the incredible scenery, nice people, and good food...I may need to re-think this living in Maryland thing. Wow! This place is a rare find off an interstate. We actually found it on Yelp, and if you are headed to Stowe, then it's on your route. It is vintage farmhouse at its finest! I loved everything, down to the plates and napkins. Our table had the a salad to start, with freshly shaved parm, then we each had a Ribeye. Might I say that tarragon sauce was divine! I asked for second ramekin of it. The steak was perfectly cooked and served on a bed of onion/squash gratin. Someone else at my table ordered Hake..which she loved. The desserts were all delicious with a lovely presentation. We sat at our table for about 2.5 hours. This is the type of restaurant where you linger, order more wine, talk, and eat slowly. No one is in a hurry here...which was fine by me. This is probably not ideal for kids, so enjoy an adult night out and you will be pleased. BWI to BTV...coming soon!!!

Went to the Kitchen Table in a party of 6. We were not an "easy" bunch for the waitress on this Friday after Thanksgiving. My sister is gluten and dairy-free. My brothers-in-law are lightheartedly inebriated, and my mom almost never leaves the house. I was the only NORMAL one. The decor is simple and calming. The staff are accommodating and very friendly, and the food was terrific. The only hitch (to the elder bro-in-law) was that they do not serve espresso. I had the hake (could've sworn it was pronounced HA-key, but it's hake, like rake). Two ordered the pork (yum), and the gluten-free sister had the hanger steak (if you order rare, it will be rare!). No entree was left unfinished. Dessert was interesting. Two of us ordered the pudding which was served in a neat little mason-jar type thing. Yum. The younger (balder) brother in law ordered what we all thought would be creme brulee with cookies. Alas, it was just two little, but delicious, cookies. I plan on returning. They're barely ever open, but the food and feel are so good that you'll find the time to dine on their schedule.

I drive past this place everyday on the way home and decided to pop in on a lark. The entire meal was delicious. I had a steak with homemade fries and a lot of veggies prepared in different ways. Whatever they can source locally they do. This trend is really taking off and unfortunately only in restaurants that charge date-night prices. The real star here is the entirely homemade deserts. I have never had so much trouble deciding. I ended up with the poundcake with lime glaze, raspberry reduction, and honey ice cream. HONEY ICE CREAM IS MY OVERLORD. If they ever find a way to mass produce this and sell it commercially, I will go broke buying it. The food is epic, where they lose a star is in being really antiquated in their business. They don't do separate checks for some reason...they say it's because of being analog but I don't really buy it. They also don't take some credit cards, which is okay in some businesses, but for the prices they're charging, I shouldn't have to quibble with them over discover card. It doesn't make them quaint, it makes them a hassle, and something like this will tarnish as perfectly lovely dining experience.

I have always had AMAZING top notch food here with great service. Great place to go on a romantic date or out to celebrate a special occasion! The Menu consists of local in season offerings, there is a great wine list and don't leave without trying their amazing deserts!

The food was decent, but unfortunately did not compensate for our waiter (ponytail, wire-rimmed glasses) who attempted to correct my grammar as I was ordering. To begin with, he misstated the rule (it is indeed acceptable to request that french fries be substituted for onion rings). But the main issue, of course, is that it is improper to attempt to correct a customer's grammar. This was my birthday dinner. With my partner. How bizarre and disappointing. I worked as a waiter for some time in NYC before law school. Paying rent depended on tips. Common sense and respect for others governed my interactions with customers above all else. Bottom line: don't attempt to correct your customers' grammar under any circumstances. Let them split their infinitives; let their subjects and verbs disagree. Know the menu, be informative and helpful. Be passionate about good food and culinary process. Create an enjoyable experience. Do not take customers for granted.

Came here for our first dinner in Vermont, and we enjoyed all three courses. We ordered fried green tomatoes for our app, steak & swordfish for entrees, and lemon creme brûlée & cherry cake for dessert. My only recommendation is more lemon flavour in the creme brûlée & a little less burning of the sugar. I love creme brûlée and usually love the crunch on top.

I'm never disappointed! Great place, great food and great service. This time we had a large group of friends with us. The beet and chèvre app was amazing, gnocchi so light and fluffy and we never go wrong with dessert.

Bar far, the best food I've had in the entire state of Vermont, and that is saying something! Great service, wine list and ambiance as well. This place is a gem!

We had such a delicious farm to table dinner here the other night! The weather was perfect for a patio dinner with twinkle lights and the summer menu was so good. We forgot how great this spot is when we come to town. It will be first on our list next time we visit!

I dined here with family on a Saturday night to celebrate my sister's birthday. The restaurant had the appearance of an upscale farmhouse and a cozy atmosphere. Our group had a serious challenge choosing among the many delicious menu options. A couple of people ordered the salad special as an appetizer to share, and among us selected the scallops, gnocchi with kale and squash, short ribs, burger, and fried risotto. Plus, they were flexible enough to bring a grilled cheese especially for my five-year-old niece. Everything was tasty and fresh. Portion size was modest to small--I personally found the entrees to be rather expensive for what you got. If we hadn't eaten snacks earlier in the evening, I probably would have left a little hungry. The rest certainly wasn't flawless either: though the people busing and filling waters were attentive, I had trouble getting the server's attention as the evening went on (she passed our table multiple times without making eye contact) to order another class of wine; there was a very long wait (30 minutes?) between appetizer and entrees, and I was thoroughly unimpressed by the fries I tasted off my niece's plate. However, I am sure I would enjoy eating there again on another special occasion.
