Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Wethersfield

Max Oyster bar - W. Hartford never disappoints. We had a very friendly waitress who never rushed us once and started with a glass of champagne, which was lovely. The restaurant was decorated beautifully for the holidays… Ambience is always warm and inviting. I'm a big fan of their shrimp scampi, the pasta is homemade and so fresh. enjoy!

Artisan is our new go to restaurant The food is fresh and prepared with creativity and gusto. The wine list is superb. We love the tuna appetizer and the scallops main course. For November Artisan had a BYOB no charge event so I brought one of my own. Definitely be back for New Year’s Eve!

Excellent food and quite affordable brunch menu. We had the kids in tow and while they didn't have a kids' brunch menu, my kids loved "The Wethersfield" and "The Glastonbury." My only quibble would be to maybe create a kids' brunch menu because the portions are enormous; still, the prices were so reasonable that we didn't mind paying full price even if there was a bit of leftover food. A huge hit overall - we'll definitely be back!

We had dinner with the grandkids (ages 10 and 7) before A Christmas Carol. Nice menu options for them including salmon, which my grandson ordered and loved. Served in something resembling a bento box or cafeteria tray (only fancy), the kids’ meals were healthy - salad, apples, biscotti. Kids could not have been happier. Food arrived quickly, was fresh and hot. My daughter-in-law is a vegetarian and had the pad Thai. Enjoyed it. I had the salmon. Delicious!! Service was fantastic. Our server was very attentive. Everyone was welcoming and patient with the kiddos.

The chicken chili nachos are absolutely to die for! That and a Margarita and you’re all set
