My wife and I took our niece here for dinner tonight. It was excellent! I had the Portugese steak and my wife had the smoked salmon tartes. Our niece had the rainbow trout. We were all very impressed with the creative cuisine and the service was also extremely professional. We will definitely return on our next trip to Vermont.

We are thrilled you chose the Red Clover Inn & Restaurant to bring your niece for a special dinner. The house-cured and smoked salmon in your wife's tarts will frequent the menu throughout the summer season. For your next visit to Vermont consider staying in one of our 13 beautiful guest rooms! Thank you for your review. Charlotte More

Thank you for your review! Chef Colin spends much of his time (even on his days off) searching for the best available products and new ingredients for his menu.

Astoundingly delicious experience from beginning to end! We went to Red Clover to try the 30x6; a three course, chef's choice meal offered between 5:30 and 6:00. (An incredible value!) We started with a roasted beet and endive salad and phenomenal cabbage and chorizo soup; our entrees were flavorful, subtle, nuanced duck breast with cipollini onions and a beautifully flaky... More

Especially when you include the wine pairing, our Chef's tastings are dining experiences you will be dreaming about for weeks to come (We also offer 3 course, 5 course, or 7 course tastings along with our regular menu from 5:30-9pm Thursday-Monday.)...

I live near NYC and we eat at some of the best restaurants. This competes with any top NYC restaurant. The food is creative, but approachable, and thoroughly delicious. Yes, it's expensive for Vermont, but it's worth it. The pork was the winner at our table, but the rabbit was delicious, as were both the cuts of steak. I really... More

Thank you for your outstanding review! Guests are always pleasantly surprised when they arrive at the the beautiful Red Clover Inn and Restaurant. The atmosphere in itself is worth the detour off of Route 4 and down the winding dirt road to the small Inn. However, the drive is made all the more worth while as soon as you taste... More

Awesome hidden gem. Great food. Try the lamb. Really clean and interesting interior. Small but very accommodating staff. Go there, it's worth every penny.
