    I really loved the overall experience. Great cocktail and wine menu. Quality wines by the glass which is nice when you don’t want a full bottle but want the best! The staff work like a cohesive team to deliver great service. I had the Porterhouse which was perfect. My son actually had the Wagyu on the hot stone that was on the appetizer menu. He enjoyed cooking it on the stone and of course with all the sides made a wonderful dinner that was a bit different ! Overall - looking forward to going back soon.

    We had an absolutely amazing experience at Pietro’s. The food was so good that we kept eating after being full because it was just too good to not! I got a “Pop-Secco” and it was refreshing and delicious. All of the staff was friendly, helpful, and happy to be there. The igloos were beautifully decorated, but we would also recommend dining inside—can’t go wrong either way. We tell all our friends and family about Pietro’s and will always come back! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!

    Went to meet my longtime friend at Terrain in Westport Connecticut today. Upon entering, I thought I was walking into a terrarium of sorts. I didn’t even realize it was a restaurant.  walking past the beautiful decorations I saw lots of smiling faces; waiters and patrons.  I sat down and was offered a drink right away. The menu was clean and elegantly designed. I liked how it was not overwhelming, but still had a nice range of options. The prices were great considering how lavish the decor was. I don’t think there was anything over $30 But the average I would say was $15. My friend ordered the grilled cheese and I got a medium well burger with aïoli dressing, bacon on top and a side of fries. I was really impressed with the quality of the meat combined with the juiciness of the burger. You never know what you’re gonna get when you Order medium well. The waiters were always on hand and ready to serve, but never gave us the feeling they were trying to rush us out. But we were there after the lunch rush so I don’t know what it’s like during the busiest times. Couple of lattes and we were ready to go. Was excited to explore the other areas of the place. I felt like I was at the botanical gardens with a restaurant growing out of it. It would be a great place to eat when the weather would allow outdoor seating.  Besides our kind waitress, a hostess by the name of Teresa, came by to check on us. She appeared to be a nature-loving enthusiast with an artistic bent. She turned me on to a Portuguese author whom I’m interested in reading. Overall, my friend and I had a great time and now planning on returning the last Thursday of this month. There’s a lot more to experience there not only in food, but in shopping. I could easily drop $1000 at the store, considering all the unique things on display. No hesitation, offering up five stars for Terrain ! After you check it out, send me your comments. Would love to hear from you. @HEARTmyMIND
