following traditional New England design and subscribing to “less is more” for a classy look. Personnel are wonderful, professional, and competent. While on the slightly pricey side, the food is very good and the menu has quite an interesting and varied selection. The main drawback to better enjoying the experience is that the noise level is so high it’s hard to communicate with people at your table and even with the waitstaff. In fact, I would not call the extremely loud space “energetic”, but almost deafening. I felt relieved once I left. Therefore, I’d like to return to the restaurant but will do so only for a quiet midweek lunch or very slow dinner times in the winter. \nI would recommend Aspen but would underscore the noise level.","submittedDateTime":"2024-06-16T18:13:37Z","rating":{"overall":4,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"nickname":null,"isVip":null,"profileColor":"PLUM","initials":"OT","simpleModerationState":"APPROVED","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"highlights":[{"startIndex":73,"endIndex":91,"__typename":"ReviewHighlight"}],"__typename":"DishReview"},{"reviewId":"OT-19471-2109927278-140019625584","text":"It was our first time dining here after many years of visiting the Old Saybrook area.

Aspen is always wonderful. The food is excellent, as is the service. Most memorable: the sticky toffee pudding, which is no longer on the menu, but they have it - presumably because so many of their customers love it. Also wonderful - all their soups. Aspen never disappoints.

We love out Aspen dinners! Have been going there at least 2x a year to meet up with dear friends who live in Fairfield (we live in RI). The food is always delicious and service is impeccable!

Aspen continues to excel. We’ve been coming here for years. The wait staff are well versed and knowledgeable, the premises are clean and comfortable with enough room among the tables, and the food is delectable.
Excellent all the way around. Worth the drive from Manhattan!

A friend and I went to lunch on Saturday March 1, 2025. The restaurant was easy to find with enough parking during this time. The ambiance and decoration was appealing. We had small plates, main plates, and dessert. Amongst the food we ordered was the seared tuna, grilled octopus, salmon wrap, lobster panini, pistachio cake and chocolate mouse. The food would have gotten a five star rating since everything was excellent except for the lobster panini. I was looking forward to this meal, however when I bit into it, it tasted like the lobster was not cleaned properly, like the intestinal vein was left in. It ruined the taste of the whole panini. Other than that the experience was well worth the visit. All the other food was excellent and I would go again, I would just avoid eating any lobster there.
