A Birthday to Remember at Belvedere Inn For my birthday dinner, my wife and I decided to celebrate at Belvedere Inn, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable dining experiences we've ever had. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable hospitality. The ambiance was simply enchanting—elegant yet inviting, with soft lighting and a touch of sophistication that set the perfect tone for the evening. The attention to detail in the decor was remarkable, creating an atmosphere that felt both luxurious and intimate. The menu was a culinary masterpiece, offering a variety of dishes that appealed to every palate. Every plate that arrived at our table was not just beautifully presented but also an explosion of flavor. We Started out with steamed mussels white wine, garlic, shallots and house made bread. I opted for the chicken piccata, cooked to perfection, while my wife savored the pan-seared scallops w/ veggies and chopped lobster, which was rich and creamy without being overwhelming. The dessert—a chocolate hazelnut richer with caramel and cocoa crumbs—was the cherry on top of an already extraordinary meal. What truly set Belvedere Inn apart, though, was the service. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made thoughtful recommendations that elevated our experience even further. To our surprise, the staff also brought out a complimentary dessert to mark my birthday, complete with a personalized message. In every aspect—food, ambiance, and service—Belvedere Inn exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply indulge in an unforgettable meal, I wholeheartedly recommend it. We can’t wait to return!

It was really nice to see all three bartenders ( Justin, Josh, and Matt ) wearing a vest and a tie. Very nice touch for the Christmas Season !! We both had the Mushroom Bisque .... fantastic !! Both also had the Tortellini - one of my favorites - goes very well with the fresh bread. Service .... when you sit at the bar and have three super bartenders .... what else can you say !! Always a great time - looking forward to being there New Year's Eve

The restaurant was decorated beautifully for the holiday season. Our server Carrie was excellent and the food was delicious
