The Shipwright's Daughter - MYSTIC

Fantastic all around! 5/5. Best place in mystic, CT!

We did the 5 course tasting menu which we had first sampled a year ago. Once again, it met our high expectations. Each course (and there were several extras thrown in) was unique and delicious. A special shout out to the chef's wife (I don't know her name) who is the sommelier. The wine pairing was extraordinary. My wife and I have visited most of the world's great wine regions and we manage to stumble into small operations, often with long family traditions, that offer great, yet reasonably priced wines. We don't do $300 bottles. The wine pairing offered a selection of little known wines, well matched to each course. They were all wines you will never, ever find yourself. Simply a wonderful, memorable addition to the overall experience. Our server, who repeated his excellent work last year, was unbelievably knowledgeable about each presentation and the wine.

We did the five course tasting menu with wine pairings. It was absolutely divine food wine service, everything. We will be back!

Food was excellent. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The meal did feel a little rushed. We were there for our anniversary and in and out the door in less than an hour.

The noise level made it nearly impossible to have a conversation.
