Best Waterfront Restaurants in Darien

It’s my favorite restaurant in the area. Reminds me of the NYC vibe. Service is excellent, food is excellent, drink specials are excellent. The price is like NYC.

My wife and I had a fabulous Valentine’s Day dinner at L’Escale. The staff was warm and friendly, attentive and engaging, the food was superb, and we had a lovely evening. I cannot say enough nice things about our experience that evening. Highly recommend for a romantic dinner or a special night together.

Great experience eating at the bar which we asked for. Charlie, Jimmie and David all came to greet us and make us feel special and at home. We are regulars and will continue to be so.

Food, ambiance, value were all great. The ONLY deduction in the star rating is that the service was a little “pressing.” It was a Monday, and there were some (but not many) other clients. My colleague and I had a lot on which to catch up … we wanted a leisurely time over drinks to talk. We had to (politely) ask the waiter to allow us the time before ordering food … twice; we did order drinks, however. The food was spectacular … we will most certainly come again.

Wonderful atmosphere and service. Food was great but more on the pricey side
