Our menu and theme of the restaurant is inspired by taking classics and adding a modern flare. We renovated a classic American building with contemporary design inside. The menu is taken from classic recipes, sourced locally and given a twist. The items will be familiar yet distinct. You will find presentation to be clean and simple. Our beverage program is an experience in itself. Our historic bar will transport you back in time, and our bartenders will guide you on a journey of crafted cocktails, wines and draft beer. We consider ourselves "fine casual", a warm and welcoming atmosphere paired with fine dining and excellent service.

    Four of us went to Market Place in Newtown for a much-needed Ladies Night Out. The drinks were delicious, we all enjoyed our meals immensely (2 bowls, salmon and short ribs) and the two wait staff who attended to our table were attentive, but not intrusive. Most importantly, being a Ladies Night Out, we never once felt rushed or like we were being pushed out. The evening was perfect with great food and drink, great conversations and great friends - Oh - and the Salted Caramel cake is not to be missed! Market Place will definitely be added to our regular rotation.

    We enjoyed a absolutely delicious meal, This Restaurant has an excellent Menu, an outstanding cocktail menu, and great ambiance. We went on a Thursday evening and had very good service, however from what I have heard you may need to allow extra time for service on Friday and Saturday nights when they are busy. I would say the food is worth any lack of fast service My advice is to immediately order a cocktail or glass of wine and an appetizer so if they are very busy when you order your meal you can sit back an enjoy your time there. We loved their choice of music and everyone was very friendly. We WILL go back.
