The best restaurant in New England. If I listed the five best meals I've ever had, Chillingsworth would be two of them. We've been about a half-dozen times, and every time we are greeted like we're old friends. The service is impeccable, from the bartender (Kathy is just great) to the wait staff and everywhere in between. We always sit in the fine dining as it's an escape from the hustle and bustle of reality. There's never a hurry or a push out the door. That isn't to say service is slow - it's just perfect. The ambience is old-school New England, a stop back into the past without feeling stodgy. The food trumps it all, with incredible chilled soups, crab cakes, risotto, perfectly cooked steak and every other meat we've ever had there. They take as much care in their desserts as every other corner of the menu. I cannot recommend Chillingsworth highly enough.
