Barnwood Tavern — Restaurant in Danbury

My wife and I came here for Valentines Day dinner. First time being here. At first glance, it was deceiving. They had very little parking, and the front entrance looked as if you were using a residential front area.

However, once you stepped inside, you were greeted with warm, earthly country style feeling. Nice tones of brick and wood. It was very inviting and made you want to stay until closing (which is what we did).

Service was friendly and attentive. We ordered the pork belly for our appetizer. It was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was amazing. She had the brisket, and I had the NY sirloin. Both dishes were cooked to order and very tender. As you can see from the photos, their plating was very good.

The only thing that I would change would be the french fries that came with the steak to potato fingerlings. In my mind, it's a better plating idea with the whole ambiance and plating that the restaurant had.

Then we followed that up with drinks at the bar. The bartender was Lyric, who was absolutely amazing. Very personable with his customers. He is definitely the reason why we stayed there until the door is closed.

Definitely would recommend the place if you are in town and try their...

The seared scallops were absolutely melt-in-your-mouth tender perfectly caramelized crust and a delicate sweet flavor that tasted incredibly fresh. The salmon was just perfect a delight in every bite! The Best creme brulee ever it was silky, creamy and luscious! The presentation of every dish was stunning and the attentive knowledgeable staff elevated the entire experience. We're already planning our next visit, this is the kind of place you dream about finding and can't wait to go...
