The Reservoir & Big Tree Brewing

Good: Service was friendly and knowledgeable! Overall vibe and experience was fine Ok: food was hit and miss. Burgers and fish chips great! Chicken marsala was to little for price and while tasty was not special. Bad: please when your not that full dont sit 5 at a table for really 3 maybe 4. Do everyone a favor and make people comfortable.

Standout dishes included the poutine fries, crab cakes, sandwiches, and Chicken Marsala. Our server did an excellent job despite it being her first night. She was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and gave thoughtful recommendations that matched our flavor preferences.

Great experience. Only had to wait a few minutes for a table on a Friday night. It was busy, but they kept things moving. Food was very good. Poutine, steak burger and Cheesesteak were all delicious. Friendly, attentive staff. Lots of people and chatter, but not loud. Still easy to have a conversation. Parking was the only challenge, either limited street parking or a somewhat pricey public lot. Worth it though!

Nice place, first time here in this town. First time in this restaurant. I am very comfortable being here. Customer service was great. I just could not decide what kind of restaurant brewed beer to select. I had the pilsner, it was good. Has the classic burger, I thought that was very good. As time went on, the restaurant started to fill up, but the server kept on taking care of us.

Drinks - phenominal 🍻 Food - 'criminally good'! 🍲 Waitress - top notch! Personable, patient, informative... 👍😎 Definitely a great evening here in Waterbury, Vermont!

I had to try poutine on my first trip to Vermont so I came here since it was close to my hotel. The fries they use must be double fried because they are as crunchy as ever. I’m sure softer fries would soak up the gravy more. I rate it 3/5 ⭐️. My husband had a classic smash burger. SALTY AS CAN BE. Definitely would not have again. My friend highly recommends the beet dish to anyone who normally likes beets.

I have a feeling your food choices matter in determining your experience here. I will say, their flavors are wild. Lots of fusions, a lit time for the stoned. The soup came out cold at first. They kindly reheated that and got it back. Tasted good. The flavors were great for all the food. Throughly enjoyed this.

Our group stopped here during a road trip before we headed home, and it was the best meal of the day. Located in the main part of town, there is a parking lot behind the restaurant as well as street parking. There is plenty of dining space with high top tables in the front of the restaurant and a bar in the back. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals, but the shining star was the poutine with gluten-free gravy. While a thinner gravy, the flavors made up for the consistency (anything that is gluten-free always has a different consistency because of the ingredients used) and if I didn't live more than three hours away, I would be ordering this regularly. Our server was phenomenal and made sure our lunch was perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone in the area because you won't be disappointed.
