Chef-inkeeper Thomas Henkelmann's "gracious", "delicious" self-titled Relais Gourmand New French eatery (voted the No. 1 Restaurant in our Connecticut Restaurants Survey) is the "real thing" at this "exquisite" "old-money B&B" "in the heart of Greenwich" that dates from 1799; satisfied suppers "go for the food and stay over to relax" in the "antiques-filled" rooms, complete with Frette linens and bold colors and serviced by a "superb" staff; N.B. kids under 14 not permitted.

For easy access to New York City "without the hassle" of driving into the Big Apple, try this retreat perched conveniently close to the train station in Downtown Stamford (which offers a tempting array of shopping and eateries so travelers can hoof it and "not be bothered with a car" or those "parking fees"); the staff is "consistently friendly and sincere" and rooms are "well appointed", though some have "an odor of cigarettes" despite the no-smoking policy.

"Recommend this hotel to clients with confidence", even if it's "a little tricky to find", nod visiting execs who approve of its "impressive atrium", "excellent fitness facilities", "professional staff" and location "convenient to everything in Stamford" (though non-expense-accounters should beware of the "extremely overpriced restaurant"); rooms are "large and beautifully decorated", but a few feel it's "time to upgrade" their "tiny" baths.

Despite a "warm and inviting" atmosphere and the expected "great bed", this chain choice a short trip from metro New York airports shows "serious signs of wear"; although the staff "worked very hard to keep us happy", carpers charge "run-down" amenities, a so-so restaurant and a "poor" gym and pool leave them "disappointed."

"Bring on the sangria" and "to-die-for mojitos" aver amigos of this "ultrachic" sextet with "terrific" vini and "outstanding Spanish tapas" harboring "intense" flavors; while the "kickin' bar scene" lures both "upscale singles" "looking for a little action" and "desperate housewives" "dressed for a night on the town", distressed diners dis the "glaringly loud" din and say prices can "add up quickly" (though recessionistas revel in the "half-price wines on Sundays").

Use your noodle and "stick with a simple salad or bowl of pasta" at this Med–Northern Italian trio, "reliable standbys" where you're encouraged to "draw on the tablecloth" (the "walls are covered with framed doodles"); for a "casual night out with family" ("kiddie city", anyone?), they're "easy on the lira", but former fans lament they're "just not what they used to be"; P.S. dine alfresco "overlooking a waterfall" in Greenwich and "right by the gazebo" in Fairfield.

"Thank goodness it finally takes reservations!" cheer champions of this "comfortably disheveled" seafooder, a "teeny-tiny" "hideaway" from the "pretense of most Greenwich eateries"; "awesome oysters" and "fish so fresh you'll think they jumped into the frying pan" have fans "coming back", despite "cramped" conditions and a decibel level so high you need "a headset and cell phone to talk to your dining partner"; N.B. beer and wine only, but a full liquor license is expected soon.

Chef-owner Jean-Louis Gerin helps you "discover taste buds you never knew you had" at his "first-rate" Greenwich French, where the "imaginative, adventurous" cuisine is complemented by a "beautifully appointed dining room" and the "most courteous service imaginable"; oui, you may need "to get that second mortgage" or have "someone else pick up the tab", but for a "special occasion" the experience will be "hard to duplicate anywhere" ("including NYC").

The "attractive scenery (both the clientele and water views)" cops the top props at this "l'upscale" French in Greenwich's "luxury" Delamar Hotel, where the "old-money-meets-hedge-fund" set "feels like royalty" sitting outdoors savoring the signature "seafood bouillabaisse" or "wonderful" brunch; "feh" say dissatisfied sorts who find the food "overpriced" and "over-fussy" and the "singles crowd" "a bit much."

Reza Khorshidi's New American menu "abounds with nonpareil culinary delights" such as "heaven-sent" foie gras dumplings in black truffle broth at his Greenwich "foodie mecca", where wife "Rebecca runs a tight ship"; you can "rub elbows with the super-elite" in the "ultramodern" (read: "very minimal") space, but nitpickers note it can get "excruciatingly noisy", and as one might expect from the "parking lot full of hedge-fund trophy cars", the "prices are over the top."

Voted No. 1 for Food, Decor and Service in the Connecticut Survey, this "extraordinary" Greenwich New French helmed by "master" chef Thomas Henkelmann and "charming" wife and hostess Theresa is where the "incredible is the usual" – "ethereal" cuisine, "uncompromised" service and "richly textured decor" that might be found in a "European country manor"; while the prices can "intimidate", devotees insist it's "worth" the "splurge" since it "just doesn't get any better than this"; N.B. jacket required.
