Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Watertown

We had a lovely brunch at the Artisan this afternoon. We had a 12:30 reservation, which was a good time as it was not too crowded. Both our selections from the fixed price menu were excellent. We had the French toast and the Crocque Madame. The eggs were perfect. The noise level was acceptable and there was a very good guitarist playing quiet background music. Very satisfactory. We recommend it.

We came for the Valentines special tasting menu. Normally I am not a fan of the bloated vdaypreset menu, however at $165 per person this over delivered and was truly special! 9 courses of excitement, attentive service, wonderful wine and an unpretentious atmosphere. The food, I mean this was the best meal we have ever had! The surprise winner of the night? “The Beet”. No words can even do justice to a simple roasted beet with a magical ride of adventure! And the best part? As they said, this is not a one off for the holiday, this is just like any other night at the restaurant with their tasting menu!

Always a wonderful experience! Staff always so attentive and friendly and of course the food always amazing!

Fantastic food and drinks, we can't wait to go back.

My hubby and I thoroughly enjoyed our extraordinary pre-Valentine’s Day lunch celebration! From the Black History Month-themed appetizer to classics like Escargot a la Bourguignonne and Cassoulet Toulousain, every bite was a revelation. We also enjoyed our conversations with our student servers whose attention and care was beyond professional. The perfect way to celebrate our love for food and each other!
