Exceptional service. Fabulous food. Great chef. The only thing I would change is to have an itemized check when we are paying. Not a big deal but I would like to see it. Also, the soup is always so good and I wish the cup was a little larger. Liz Skaleski.

Curate has a lovely setting. It is always a treat to eat there. Especially when the sun is out. I had the quiche and salad. The salad was VERY salty. I rarely put salt on a salad with lettuce so I was quite surprised and disappointed. Please tell the chef to hold the salt.

Love that the menu changes seasonally! We all tried differant appetizer ( the special was pasta pockets with ramp , yumm!) The mushroom caramelized onion flatbread is always a croud pleaser! Entrees of Branzino with fennel, perfect! ( whole fish. but nicely deboned)

This spot has become a favorite. The location is classic Vermont and there's the chance to eye some interesting art while in the building. The lunch/brunch menu is full of interesting things and all have been delicious (well, the shrimp and grits was a bit disappointing because the shrimp weren't very well prepared). If you're an eggs benedict fan the eggs will always arrive perfectly cooked! The wait staff is on top things and fun and the view is amazing from the dining room windows. Best pork belly I've ever tasted, hamburger perfectly cooked, breakfast potatoes wonderfully crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, excellent salads. It's a definite winner.
