Present Company - SIMSBURY

Went there for a birthday party, everything was really fantastic. Servers are super nice, ambiance was great, and the food was delicious! We will definitely go there again.

Absolutely incredible dinner Saturday night. Jeffrey and his team are amazing from the service to the food.

I really cannot find the right words to describe the experience you will have when you dine at this gem of a place. It is our go to when we want a very memorable evening. From the minute you walk in the door you will be treated like you are the most special couple in the room. Every person that works there goes above and beyond. You almost feel like you are in Europe at a little bistro. And to think it is right here in the lovely little town of Tariffville. Thank you for the wonderful memory you help create.

Great experience from start to finish! Four of us had the 5 course prix fix tasting menu with wine pairings, and everything was delicious. Portions were generous without making us overstuffed, or wanting more. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant! Server PJ was the best, and made the experience outdoors even more fun!Update: We have since gone back to Present Company several times, and it never disappoints. We recently dined at the chef’s counter (had a great time with Matt! and enjoyed the 4 course prix fixe, and some of the standouts were the duck confit, cappelletti, sourdough späetzel that was surprisingly spicy and delicious, the striped bass and the espresso martini. I had a delicious cocktail similar to a Paloma, but much more interesting and complex in flavor. The service is always top notch even when the place is busy. We look forward to our next visit!

Horrible. Finally got our entrées after sitting in the most uncomfortable chairs for two hours! It took 45 minutes just to get our appetizers. Service was abysmal, nonexistent. I do not want to be rushed at a restaurant, but I don’t want to be ignored for two hours either. Wasn’t the waitresses fault. Still gave her a 20% tip. Asked to talk to the manager and after he didn’t come by for over 15 minutes, I had them box my entree up, paid the bill, and left……No urgency on the part of anyone to do anything. As we were leaving, I saw who I believed to be the owner, floating around, talking to other tables. Really….?? Meal for two with tip was $280. Had to wait till I got home to eat it cause my back was killing me from the horrendous chair. I’d never go back there. 2 hours and $280 bucks down the drain for our ‘big night out’. Thanks a lot.
