Starry Night Café

Excellent food. Pleasant atmosphere. Definitely recommended!

Delicious food. Party of 7. Everyone loved their appetizers dinner and desert. Highly reccomend. Worth the drive from Middlebury.

Decent food, great ambience. Menu seemed like elevated health food however. Me and my wife both got sick after we ate there. I dont think mine was related but she definitely had some form of food poisoning.

We have been to dinner three times here in the last few months, and have enjoyed each experience. The big post and beam "gazebo" room is a very nice addition to the space, with warm visuals and gentle acoustics that make conversation easy. Service is professional although a little stiff for Vermont. Cocktail menu is creative, with a good range of spirits (its always nice to see tequila on specials in Vermont), and so far we have been impressed with the bartender's sense of balance in terms of sweetness and complexity of flavor. Frankly, the calamari is the best we've ever had. As required in Vermont, the draft beer selection has a collection of local drafts - Frost's Lush was our choice and it was as always superb. Salads are delicious. Wine selection is acceptable. The potato gnocchi and lamb entrees were very satisfying. Dessert list is short, although each are excellent that we tried.

In summary, Starry Night is one of the higher priced restaurants in Vermont, its "out of the way" in Ferrisburgh, but it is worth both the price and the trip. Well run, well staffed from hostess through chef and bartender, and a nice atmosphere that is a treat for special occasions, even if that is just a pleasant evening out with friends.
