We selected from the Mystic Pizza menu. The Portuguese kale and linguica soup and Atlantic cod were top notch. My companion had the clams and lamb stew, also delectable. Truly enjoyed our dinner!

The food was good but the portions were small. The salad was literally enough for four bites. The codfish was also very small although very tasty. Clearly, when I saw the portions from other diners, I thought you ran out of the codfish! The server was wonderful and we were well taken care of but the chef should be cognizant of the amount of food on the plate.

We were pleasantly surprised with the quality and value of the food. My husband had the octopus salad and the steak and eggs The steak was perfectly cooked and octopus was plentiful, tender and delicious. I had the kale salad and the New England clam chowder pot pie. Both were delicious just the right portion. Our waitress was friendly, professional and attentive. A great experience overall.

There is no rival in terms of early parking and proximity to the Paper Mill Theater. The restaurant is lovely. Very old world and with a wonderful fireplace on each level. The service was excellent (especially Ashley!). The food was very good for the most part. The cod "fritters" were more a sort of mini fish cake than a fried dish. The pastas were very salty. The duck and lamb stew were excellent. I think the rolls should be warm.

Wow. Pre-theater menu did not disappoint. Fresh and delicious food. Unique cocktails. Exceptional service. And the fireplace in one of the dining rooms added to the comfortable, relaxing ambiance.

We always enjoy dinner before a show at the PaperMill. It’s never disappointing. The choice of appetizers and entrees. Desserts and drinks are fashioned after the play being performed and it’s fun.
