The Hopkins Inn

Went here to have dinner with a friend. We ate at the patio and the view was really majestic. It was overlooking Lake Waramaug and eating there felt like heaven. The food was really delicious. They were certainly fresh, too. The trout that I had was still swimming in a tank inside the restaurant before it was served on my plate. It was a refreshing meal indeed. Most of the items in the menu were distinctly American with a touch of French influence. My friend ordered the escargot and told me to try it too. To my surprise, I liked how it tasted. We also had their house salad, and it was definitely wonderful. Wait staff were fast and very nice to their customers.
