Best Historic Restaurants in Westfield

I ordered French onion soup and Greek salad for my dinner. The French onion soup was served first. It got cold while I waited for the salad. The soup was extremely salty. I could not eat it. It had gotten somewhat warm while I waited for my salad. Salad can and I ordered their special -clam chowder. The clam chowder had shrimp and Krab in a very salty cream soup. I tasted a very small amount of clams. Not good. I had to search for the cucumbers in the Greek salad and instead of feta I had soft goat cheese. Not good. My husband had the burger and he was quite satisfied with his dinner. I am glad that I came for the entertainment and not JUST the food.

We couldn’t wait to try Bar Ellis for my birthday celebration. We went a little early for drinks at the bar. Skyler was an amazing bartender, excellent drinks and great conversation! Once our table was ready upstairs on the back patio, we saw the charm and uniqueness of the restaurant. Alex was our server and took great attention with us. We chose the potato pancake tots because they weren’t something we’ve seen on other menus. They were delicious! We chose to split the sea scallops and crab cakes, which were equally yummy. However, the portion (3 of each) may not be the best for splitting. We each could’ve eaten our own. We chose to end the night with the wedding cake of my choosing, then my husband quickly added in the carrot cake. Both were great. We shared a bottle of R Collection by Raymond. It wasn’t a great wine and there aren’t very many really good wines on the wine list, which is our only critique. A few Italian reds, or better Cabernets, would be greatly appreciated! This may become our new favorite restaurant in town!

Always a fun place to go- truffle fries are my favorite!! The service is always great- The apps are so fun and are all amazing! I could probably live off the apps and key lime pie!!

Steak was really good. Wedge salad was fantastic. The server was excellent.
