    Traveled up to North Hero to support this local restaurant during the off-season and specifically because they had some gluten-free items marked on the menu. I have eaten here in the past without a problem, but the last two times have not been good, food allergy wise. Almost a year ago I ordered a GF item off the menu and had a severe reaction. Called them the next morning and they told me it was a misprint on the menu. Fast forward to last night, thought I would give them another try since it’s been a year. I wanted to order the pork loin, which is marked GF on the menu, and had the waitress double check with the chef to see if it was gluten-free and she came back telling me it wasn’t!! Very careless and negligent to have a menu with items marked gluten-free that are not!!

    Nice Thanksgiving buffet. Disappointed with what was called pumpkin pie. Barely edible pastry tart shell with something sweet and soupy in it that was the color of pumpkin. I was hoping for a nice traditional slice of pie .

    We’ve been to the Mother’s Day or Easter brunch at the North Hero House, but we’ve never been to the Thanksgiving buffet. It did not disappoint. I was looking forward to the hand carved prime rib. I had two generous servings with the best mashed potatoes ever. My wife stayed traditional with turkey, stuffing, gravy, squash and mashed potatoes. We were both happy as can be. The only quirk was that dessert was served and not buffet style but who cares about dessert after all that food?

    We had great food and great atmosphere. If we had a little more time we would have sat by the fireplace and had coffee. Great restaurant!

    Fabulous food and good value. Everything from the apps to dessert was spot on in flavor, doneness, presentation, and timeliness.

    Under new owners, North Hero House has been transformed from good to great. The food is exquisitely prepared with generous servings. The ambience is perfect. We ate on the porch with its beautiful views of Lake Champlain. It was a wonderful experience.
