Best Farm To Table Restaurants in Stanhope

There was a big black board with flipping messages on it, some were funnier than the others. It looks like the boards you used to see at the stock market. It was pretty loud. The food was good, the service is excellent. It was pretty expensive and the steak was a little undercooked but they offered to remake the steak. I rate it 4 stars out of five.

Excellent! Our Server, Meghan, was The Best! Food was amazing!

Prior to COVID, we dined at Ryland Inn ten or more times a year. They have been closed for some time but recently reopened and since we were visiting the area, booked a reservation. While it is no longer the amazing farm-to-table menu, the food prep was very impressive. Tom, our bartender, was very knowledgeable and professional. We knew the previous team very well and he would have fit in nicely. He made my Sazarac beautifully. On to dinner: Skip the wedge salad- while trying to be clever, the red leaf lettuce wasn’t properly washed and much too gritty. Too bad- the blue cheese and bacon were excellent. The salmon (special) was perfect. As was the shirt rub and grits. Wines are very pricy. So we opted to order by the glass and found a very drinkable Cabernet. We both ordered the crème brûlée for dessert which was creamy and delicious. So, while not the same Ryland inn we were accustomed to, it is still very good.

Magnificent food, great service, and wonderful ambiance. The chef takes pride in his work and it shows in every entree.

Great drinks, food and service. Will definitely be returning
