"*** Superior

"Set foot in The Grist Mill Restaurant only if you are prepared to lose your heart to a branch of the Farmington River, lapping and rolling directly below every window, visible from almost every seat in the house."

Connecticut Magazine


"For a romantic dining experience, The Grist Mill has much going for it, in ambiance, service, and, most of all, the caliber of its food."
