8. The Boathouse

I wanted to go lightly on this place due to its relative remoteness, but then remembered that I had encountered exceptional restaurants in some of the most unpretentious locations. So, on the upside, the owners definitely put in a lot of effort to create a cozy, nautical-themed atmosphere, and we liked the interior. The staff was also very attentive, fast and knowledgeable about the menu. But... You come to restaurants to EAT, in the end, so food is even more important - and this is where you get disappointed: both the presentation and the preparation do not inspire any particular emotions and most definitely do not justify the price tag. By the feel of it, a lot of ingredients are kept frozen (which is natural, I guess, considering the foot traffic is limited), although the owners do claim they source most of ingredients locally. The menu looks quite eclectic (not to use the word "strange"): anything from steaks to escargots to sushi to deep-fired turtle. I don't know what to make of this, so let's leave it at "neutral". Again - I guess, we could give it a slack given that there are not many restaurants in the area, and so they are probably just trying to tend to a wider audience. But the end result just doesn't cut it. Good selection of local brews, though.

The Infinity Hall Bistro is attached to Infinity Music Hall. This 130+ year old elegant building provides a warm, friendly place to dine. The food was excellent and service was prompt and friendly. Great place to dine and then see the show in the same building.

We've loved stopping in at The Bridge in the past, but we don't get to the Berkshires very often, and regret that they are no longer open during the lunch hour. Their tostada is really special, something I look forward to ordering.In past years they were closed for 4th of July, so this year I called ahead and was told they would be open on Tuesday, July 3. Unfortunately when we got there they had a big sign announcing that they were closed on July 3 and July 4. I wish their staff would provide accurate information.Hi Elsa,This is Michael Dutton, owner of the Bridge. I apologize for your experience July 3rd. Our air conditioning wasn't able to keep up with the heat and so we reluctantly decided to close. There was a note in the front door and an explanation on our Facebook page. There wasn't enough room on our front sign to explain the problem.I also just want to mention that we have never been open for lunch in the 11 plus years we've been here. The previous restaurant Limey's did serve lunch for awhile.I'm so glad that you like our place and look forward to seeing you again.Yours,Michael

Just down the road from the Old Inn is our sister property, The Southfield Store, a hidden gem that operates year-round as a coffee shop/café by day, and a casual late-week dinner option from mid-May until November 1st.

Part of our package at The Old Inn on the Green included lunch here. We were offered soup or salad, sandwich and dessert and were allowed to take it out. Everything was great.

We looked forward to dining here after being there about a year ago. The food is consistently very good and the staff is well trained and very nice as well. I had seared scallops in a lemon beurre blanc sauce that was delicious. My husband enjoyed the crab cakes. It is definitely the best of the few restaurants in Norfolk!

Excellent for lunch!! We used the General Tso Cauliflower as an appetizer for three. What an innovative and delicious use of the flavors, and the cauliflower was perfectly done. Arugula salad was plentiful, tasty and made exactly as ordered. Fish and chips was enormous, expertly battered and cooked. Spring rolls were just what we wanted. Can't say enough good things about this place, from the tasteful decor to the music to the food.

Music mountain offers a combination dinner and performance for $70. Absolutely, absolutely pass up. They tell you to be at dinner at five and the performance was at 6:30. The restaurant is incapable of serving you dinner and getting you out on time even after complaining the waitress. After gobbling down very mediocre food of a salad, piece of fish or chicken we were unable to get dessert or our check. When I complained to the owner who was behind the bar she chastised me for complaining in front of a customer . A mad drive to Music Mountain, we arrived at 6;30 and had terrible seats and left at intermission.

Friends invited me to join them for dinner here recently and I had driven by the Stagecoach a number of times but never went in until now. I'm sorry I waited so long.The setting is small and intimate, lots of wood...old building...low ceilings..a romantic location for that quiet dinner with someone special. The wait staff was young but attentive and very helpful when it came to choosing our dishes.We shared a number of appetizers and all were terrific...then the main courses. The waitress recommended the pork chop to me...so I went for it and thanked her later for the tip...it was succulent, tasty and easily the best pork chop I've ever had. I was amazed at how good everything was and also that in a small and busy restaurant it was also easy to have a conversation at a normal voice level.Pricing is a bit higher than some places locally but the food and service are worth it. I can't wait to go back again.
