Best Historic Restaurants in Trappe

Always a great experience. The food was spot on. Thank you! :)

We choose Bas Rouge for every special occasion because the food and its presentation are always perfect, the staff is attentive and knowledgeable and it’s a visually stunning place. I recommend it in the highest possible terms.

Food was delicious as always. Cajun mahi mahi and really great rice and beurre blanc, and fried chicken and Mac n cheese. All delicious. They need to update the bread selection; those rolls aren’t very good. Service was excellent, probably because we were her only table on a Monday night. She was very attentive.

While others have raved about t at The General Store, I had not eaten there in a few years and under new management and chef. Well...it lived up to what I had been told. I had shrimp and grits and outside of New Orleans, they are the best I've ever had. Tender, sweet shrimp and the sauce over the excellent grits was unlike any I have ever tasted on this dish or any other. Unique and scrumptious. My companion had the rack of lamb and loved it. The waitress was friendly and funny and never seemed stressed even though she handled many tables. She did it with aplomb. I think the decor and ambience are better than in past years, but the chairs are not comfortable, probably because they are the kind you would you use in the office break room. Strange, because the wooden tables were most attractive. That said, I can't wait to go back.
