Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Stratford

We had a lovely brunch at the Artisan this afternoon. We had a 12:30 reservation, which was a good time as it was not too crowded. Both our selections from the fixed price menu were excellent. We had the French toast and the Crocque Madame. The eggs were perfect. The noise level was acceptable and there was a very good guitarist playing quiet background music. Very satisfactory. We recommend it.

The food and service were outstanding! You can get lost in all of the wonderful offerings in their store. Such a great idea to eat in such a lovely ambiance. Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. We opted to eat half our servings in order to try some of their desserts! We were not disappointed! And we got our leftovers packed away to eat later. This was a beautiful experience from start to finish... We will be back soon!

Went for the prix fixe menu for our Valentine’s dinner. It was on the pricier side ($200+ pp including alc), but every aspect of the dinner was spectacular. Unexpectedly met with rose pedals on the table and a (optional) raspberry cocktail. All of their cocktails looked incredible on other tables, but we split a very nice Cab. All the courses were amazing, moderate amounts, but after four courses we were filled up. Wagyu tenderloin and carrot cake were 12/10. Will definitely be going back for a dinner with the regular menu in the near future. If you don’t mind the cost, then the Valentine’s dinner is a special date night experience.

Great! Food was wonderful, we ordered multiple small plates and enjoyed every one. Cocktails were excellent as well

We went out for an early Valentine's Day dinner and the service and food did not disappoint. It was a bit noisy due to Happy Hour and our table was in close proximity. Our waitress Lindsay was very pleasant and provide excellent service. When we got there I had in mind what I was going to order for dinner until I heard the specials. I ended up ordered the stuff pork chop special and my husband order the salmon special. Both meals were very flavorful. Kudo's to the chef for the great special creation. Looking forward to our next visit.
