Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Charlestown

Special seafood pasta was amazing.... so was the chicken marsala... as were the oysters, HUGE shrimp, and littleneck.... The variety of wine by the glass was reasonably extensive and the pistachio martini a must for desert... or the bread pudding... or the carrot cake... all amazing! We enjoyed amazing service in one of the igloos on the patio. A wonderful experience for sure!

Excellent food and service. Wonderful old New England ambience.

We had a great dining experience at the David Burke Steak Restaurant at Foxwoods and saw that there was another David Burke related location closer to our home in Portsmouth. We found this restaurant in Richmond at The Preserve off rt 138. We made our reservation for our first visit to this location. We were surprised and a bit confused when we came upon a guard shack with gates. The very friendly security person came out and ask us what and where we were going, I told him we have reservation at Double Barrell Steak for brunch... He welcomed us to the Preserve, explained a few things about the property and directed us to the restaurant. We were amazed at what we saw while slowly driving through the property and finally getting to our destination. We were directed to the second floor and greeted by the hostess who directed us to our table. Definitely a David Burke style of dining experience and décor!! Food choice was delicious and plentiful!! We spoke with both the property director and our waitress, both very friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back!!

We know the head chef was out which was disappointing, leaving a few specialities off the menu. My wife’s scallops were a little over-salted and a couple of them were slightly overcooked. Other than that everything was delicious. The oysters were delicious, the antipasto skewer was generous and tasty as was the house salad. For entrees they were incredibly generous portions, the risotto with the pork chop and pork chop itself were amazing. The value for this whole experience was incredible, and our server Tara did an amazing job even though she had the bar and sunroom all by herself. That being said she kept up with everyone, made great suggestions and was a great server! We will definitely be returning! (This was our first visit, for our 39th anniversary!). Thanks!
