South Burlington (Vermont) Restaurants

VERY high quality food at this lovely, cozy-feeling cafe out in the country. Everything was beautifully flavorful, fresh, perfectly seasoned. Our group split the roasted oysters appetizer, and the house-made pastrami appetizer, both of which were amazing. My companions both ordered pasta dishes. I tried to order the special pasta (squash bucatini) but it was sold out. The shrimp and grits I pivoted to were amazing, though, so no regrets! One thing I was a little surprised by was the number of menu items that were sold out by the time we ordered. We had a 6:00 p.m. reservation, so I wouldn't have expected so many things to sell out so early in the evening. That said, the restaurant was packed, with parties who had gotten there even earlier than us, so I gather the dinner hour skews a bit early in rural Vermont. Ambiance and service were lovely. Prices were in line with what I'd expect at a higher end, farm-to-table venue. I would definitely dine here again!

Overall a very good dinner. Food was delicious. We were the first customers to try a new fall squash dish and it did not disappoint. A truly delicious meal!! Would definitely recommend Plate as a go to Stowe restaurant.

The food was outstanding. Well seasoned salmon, generous portion and cooked perfectly. Delicious roasted vegetables. The bread pudding is enough for two and delicious. Coffee with desert wasn’t hot but quickly replaced. The waiters Jake and Susan were friendly and attentive. Scott the manager made sure everyone had what they needed. All in all 5 stars.

Great service … good food … nice outside seating !
