Visited Chamard Vineyards with my mother for a special treat since I was in town. It was about a 30-40 minute drive from her home. We sat on the deck and enjoyed the perfect weather and the lovely sound of the water and sumptuous view of the vineyard. The meal was yummy; we had starters and an entree. My mother did not care for the wine on the tasting menu and our server offered a taste more to her liking. The best part of our experience was our server. She had the right amount of friendliness and attention. We were relaxed and cared for. I am pleased with the award winner bottle that I brought home. The enjoyment here makes me want to experience more of the CT Wine Trail.

Picture perfect setting for any occasion. Love the options of indoor or outdoor seating for lunch or dinner A hidden gem tucked off of a tree line country road. Easy drive from I-95, worth a drive from anywhere.

Good food -- nice atmosphere --- for a winery you can get dinner and a flight of wine in the tasting room but you CAN"T get a flight of wine and dinner in the dinning room -- even on a quiet night our server said this "wasn't permitted"... Strange -- if you want to try a selection of the local winners (who wouldn't at a vineyard) then don't sit in the dinning room ...Food is good but a little bit pricy by local standards

Nice lunch

The food (artichokes, fries, spring pea vichyssoise, steak frites, croques madame and cod) and service were very good and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves as usual.
I must say the acoustics are real lively in the dining room and we've found that there is always a very loud group in the dining room which have a tendency to make it a tad less pleasant though not unbearable.

Lovely setting, good food and service.

Great food!
Great service!
Great ambience!
Love this restaurant!

Wonderful dining. We were seated earlier than our 5:45 reservation which was very accommodating to us.

Incredible meal with incredible service. Definitely going back

Exquisite location and ambiance.
Fabulous food.
Just a wonderful dining place.
Modestly priced for a farm-to-table restaurant.
Will definitely put it on our family's recommended list.

Food was good however service was very slow even though the restaurant was not busy.

Lovely dining experience and excellent service

There were four of us on a kind of party occasion: we ordered up a storm, ate all of it, and all of it was delicious! I recommend especially--the starter cheese plate, with many varieties of cheese, all of them good, and honey, fig and almonds; the French fries with aioli (just have these with whatever you order!), the cod on a lovely tasty sauce with assorted beans, delicious. The food is great, the service excellent and it's a pretty place in a blossoming vineyard: go there!

Went with friends for holiday weekend something to do. Did a wine tasting which was fun before lunch. Server was friendly and gave a nice little review of each wine taste. Finished early and was able to get seated before our reservation for lunch so happy about that. My burger was very good but a bit small on a large bun. The others had the sandwich with Canadian bacon, cheese and egg on top (don’t know what it’s called) that they said was good (not great). Dessert was also good but not great. We shared a raspberry almond cake and rice pudding. Only one of us had a glass of wine with our meal. Our server was extraordinaryly friendly but a somewhat slow. He seemed to forget about us and we had to get his attention twice. Considering everything, this lunch was a bit pricey. The only thing that made it worth the trip was a visit to the vineyard and the wine tasting and the fact that it was a different sort of day. It’s a lovely place but would probably not go back again.

Apps and entree were really great. Employees were very pleasant. Bottle of Riesling was delish. Only dessert was a fail - boring, "cookie cutter", and not satisfying! (had the $8 lemon tart)

Great wine and food. Nice to walk the grounds and see 5he vineyard.

We went to the vineyard on a picture perfect day to sit and relax on the deck and enjoy various wines and food served by an excellent server named John. It was fun tasting various wines taking home two bottles. The food was excellent. I never had a Croque Madam before after dining on a Mediterranean appetizer platter, my husband the meat and cheese platter followed by a grilled cheese made with awesome cheeses. Looking forward to our next visit for dinner. Please send our thanks to John who was attentive and a pleasure to talk with about the various wines.

Staff is wonderful, food is fantastic

Couldn't have been better.

My husband, David, and I thoroughly enjoyed our lunch this past Sunday! The entire experience was lovely. The food was fantastic and the wine was better! Even brought a bottle home!

Beautiful venue. Food was delicious and staff was very accommodating. Planning to make this a regular spot for our yearly CT girlfriends reunion weekends!

Mother’s Day early dinner. The place never fails to satisfy. The wine is excellent. The food outstanding and the staff very friendly and professional. My favorite spot for a special occasion, Sunday brunch or evening treat. Go to Chamard. It’s great.

The food was awesome (the duck)!! Only complaint was it’s like loud and it was at times hard to hear my clients.

Chamard has a charming atmosphere with consistently delicious food and outstanding service. It is easily one of our favorite restaurants in the area

We were a table of 6 and we were disappointed in the main meals. The steak was not worth the price and was very small. The appetizers were good and dessert was ok also.

Was married there last year and just returned to celebrate a special birthday. Enjoyed every minute. Food, service and wine were all incredible. thank you

Chamard Vineyards Bistro is always fabulous! Saturday evening is a bit crowded and noisy, although it's okay once you get out of the bar. The good is always top notch.

Food was very good. Will definitely come back again.

Stopped for lunch on our way to Norwalk. Excellent choice. First time. Won’t be our last. Baked Camembert was delicious. The gnocchi dish was perfect! Wine was pricey but delicious.

We were pleasantly surprised how extra special it was from ambience to food and wine. Definitely will return especially when wanting a quiet date night.

Lovely setting including a pond with fountain.Restaurant was nicely appointed.
Walls were decorated with original artwork, Many windows provided vineyard views.Food exceeded our expectations. Outstanding presentation, {we snapped pics} It tasted as wonderful as it looked. Our waiter Cooper was delightful and had an extensive knowledge of the wines,

Anniversary

Enjoyed the ambience. The food was excellent! Service was very good.

Always a great place for wonderful meal and service. Have not found a better place to enjoy and really nice meal and excellent glass of wine. The ambiance is always inviting and relaxing.

Great food, superb service and a warm atmosphere!

My daughter decided to visit the winery and were so impressed . Cooper our waiter was knowledgeable about the wine selection. They have great 2 ounce option so you can make sure you are liking the wine before a whole glass we decided to do appetizers which were wonderful! I would highly recommend Chamard !

Excellent food and good wines. Service great, but hostess seated us alone on a slow night, nearer the bar with some conversation would have been nice. Food and wine made up for it. Not cheap but lower priced options available

Excellent wine, meal, service and waitstaff. Our first time here and a new favorite.

A very cosy and relaxed atmosphere. I nice combination of lunch and dinner items, and fine selection of estate (Chamard), and other whites and reds.

For the second year in a row my family met here for Easter brunch. the setting is beautiful, the service wonderful and the food delicious! This is a new tradition we will be carrying forward - as well as adding other visits!
