“ A dining experience and A wheelchair accessibility. You won’t believe the honey truffle salmon! My only feedback would be to consider adding a more hearty vegan dish, the cauliflower was enjoyed by my husband although quite light. Thank you for a memorable evening! ”
“ Okay this has quickly become our favorite spot to dine in Newtown. Oh my gosh all of the food is so yummy. The staff being it to next level. They save your drink preferences in your system so they remember the wine you loved or the cocktail you’re probably going to order. That little extra step makes it so personal and intimate. For food, you have to order the steak skewers - OUT OF THIS WORLD. The focaccia bread is the best I’ve ever had, with the exception of a small deli I visited in Italy. The pasta dish is amazing. The pork chop wrapped in bacon is exceptional. The steak is outstanding. I don’t have a bad thing to say. Now please excuse me sheik I go make a reservation for this weekend!! ”
“ A special restaurant in Sandy Hook. Friends took me for dinner as it us one of their favorite places. It did not disappoint. From the moment we entered, the staff was attentive ,the dining room was lovely and the menu for wine,cocktails and food were easy to read. The drinks ,meals and service were excellent. The picture is a lentil dish with butternut squash coulis and pomegranate sauce. It was perfect. Dessert and delicious coffee finished our meal. We split a bannofee pie. So good. ”
“ We absolutely love this local restaurant. If you are in or around Newtown/Sandy Hook, be sure and check it out. The pork chop was absolutely delicious, and my wife really enjoyed the scallops. My daughter had the salmon with a curry, and it was wonderful. We tried the truffle deviled eggs, wow!!! Outstanding service and beautiful upscale New England feel with being stuffy inside the restaurant ”
“ Unconscionable that the rating isn’t a solid 5. The entire staff was incredibly welcoming, considerate, on just one top of everything in the best way. I had the hangar steak (I was just passing through on a long drive so I don’t know if they have a revolving menu) but every bite was packed with flavor. If one could bottle the sensation of eating each component together and sell that, they’d make a fortune. Instead, you’ll need to settle for a perfectly mid rare steak that had butteriest texture while sporting a sear and a chimichurri. Luck brought me here, but intent will bring me back again (and I’ll wear a better outfit than a pullover hoodie— thank you all for being so lovely!) ”
“ I have nothing but good things to say about Nouveau Monde! We found out about this gem while looking for a location for our baby shower! And I’m so happy we chose them. Our party was last year, on October 16th. Our event planner , Lynda was just a delight to work with. The location is beautiful, the food is sensational - we did go again for dinner a couple times before and after the shower - and we could not stop talking about how good the food was! If you need a location for a baby shower, a bridal shower or any other small event, don’t hesitate to contact Nouveau Monde, and ask for Lynda! And if you are looking for a special place for a nice dinner, you are not going to regret coming here! ”
“ One of our go to spots for a date night. The place definitely exudes romance. The food is amazing and the staff is super attentive. ”
“ A perfect place for an event. We rented out Antoinette's which is a separate building in the back. It comfortably fit 25 people - having two floors added a nice flow to the meal/activities. It was really nice to have the patio open as well! The food was phenomenal. I really mean it. Everybody was complimenting the space, with one guest noting that it was the "classiest" shower venue she's been to. Linda, our coordinator, went wayyyy above and beyond to make the event perfect. The bar/wait staff were also super attentive yet easygoing. Can't wait to come back for a regular date night dinner service! ”
