About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for brunch
Influenced by its location in the elegant Normandy Farm Hotel, The Farmer's Daughter is the culinary cornerstone of this historic property & offers an unforgettable dining experience with an exceptional menu of Chef Mtele "Abu" Abubakar`s "Modern Farm Cooking". At The Farmer's Daughter, heirloom and locally sourced ingredients are brought to life on the plate in the form of pure flavors and innovative dishes inspired by the seasons and harvests of our surrounding region. We aspire to give our guests a sense of personal connection to the farmers, brewers, cheese mongers, distillers, winemakers and charcuterie craftsmen who collectively help create an exceptional dining experience. Our expansive bar and fireside lounge follows a "fresh only" approach, creating all of the mixers and infusions in-house from local fruits and vegetables for an extensive list of creative cocktails.

    We were very disappointed in our meal. Typically we have an exceptional experience here. However, the flatbread was mediocre at best; the mushroom risotto was bitter and salty; the halibut was served cold. The manager did comp the halibut. We’re hoping this was a one time experience considering everyone (including us) raved any the food here.

    Restaurant and bar overwhelmed with people from hosted events/weddings. Not enough separation of restaurant from ballrooms, like separate entrance and dedicated bar area. Parking difficult, overwhelmed with event guests. Hallways and bar overwhelmed with guests for weddings. Bar didn’t accommodate but in fact had half the bar closed. ??? Had to use the outside bar on very hot day to find enough quiet to talk and find bar service. The bright light was the new employee servicing the outside bar. Jillian was a gem. Keep her and move her to where she can produce the most for herself and for you - win win.

    The food and service were excellent! We celebrated our anniversary and it was our first time dining at The Farmer’s Daughter. We will definitely be back! We had the Ruben egg rolls as an appetizer, which were delicious. I had crab cakes which were excellently seasoned and full of lump crab meat and my husband had the Overnight Braised Short Ribs which were delicious and had a spicy kick. For dessert we shared the Salted Carmel Tart, which was decadent, dense, and sweet! We really enjoyed our meals!!

    Unfortunately, the weather did not permit having lunch outside, but we had a nice inside table that was quiet and made it easy to converse. I had the grilled Caesar Salad with chicken and my colleague had it with salmon. Both were very good.
