Le Belvedere - Newport

The food was excellent overall, but the asparagus had a burnt taste, and the duck was overcooked.

The new menu is fantastic, featuring four beef options, a generous lamb shank, and a variety of seafood dishes. Two of us ordered the fillet, which was cooked to perfection, while one person enjoyed the large lamb shank, and the fourth opted for the scallops. The restaurant has a pleasant, quiet atmosphere and offers a beautiful view of Lake Memphremagog to the north. It's just one of the many great things about the Northeast Kingdom. I can't wait to try more of their dishes!

It took eight minutes for someone to take our drink orders, and we waited 20 minutes for water after requesting it. Our drinks arrived close to 20 minutes after we placed our orders. We waited another 20 minutes before we could place our food orders, and then it took about 30 minutes for the appetizers to be served. We decided to order a second round of drinks while waiting, and once again had to ask for water refills. We started our meal at 7:40, and our main courses didn’t arrive until 9:10, meaning we didn’t leave the restaurant until after 10. The food was, as always, wonderful, and we plan to return, but the service was incredibly slow. It felt like we had to ask for everything instead of having things taken care of in a more timely manner.

Excellent- meat was cooked to perfection and service was outstanding

Visited two nights in a row...Thursday for Sushi at a table for two and Friday with a group of seven. I was amazed at how different the food was prepared each night and how great it was. We all enjoyed our dinners and will definitely return again!
