Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Middletown

The food was great! Our waiter. Austin was Excellent!

My wife and I enjoyed Valentine's Day dinner at The Village Anchor and were seated in the covered patio area below. The food was great but a little pricey. French Onion Soup could have been hotter and we found a lack of saltiness to everything but not terrible. The wine was reasonable and they didn't try to upsell. The dessert was huge - really enjoyed that. Friendly staff top to bottom. I had trouble finding reservations for V-Day and this place was busy but not packed at all. The lighting in the covered porch area did not at all reflect a fine dining experience, though - which killed a bit of the ambiance despite the cute Valentine's decor. Overall a good experience and we'll return if I have an extra $200 but for that kind of money I know we could do better. I look forward to brunch as their menu promises a variety of great looking option.

My wife and I frequent the Exchange for our date nights. The food is always plated nicely and the flavor is consistent every time, service is great and what you would expect for a restaurant in this class, if you like bourbon; the Exchange makes the best “Old Fashioned” around and its super consistent as well.

Another visit to Ata Restaurant and another 5 star evening in every category and at every level. Chef / Owner, David Danielson and his amazing team provide the ultimate dining experience, from the food, to the service, to the thoughtful wine and cocktail list to the cool vibe of this hot spot. In a foodie city with so many wonderful choices, this gem is must !!!

Great food and service, especially considering the value. Our server Will was very engaging and knew what recommendations to make. We’ll be back!
