New York Times - "EXTRAORDINARY" (highest possible rating) "Still River is beautiful -- a clean, white, airy space punctuated by 19th-century beams, set on a bucolic patch of Connecticut. The food is as lovely as the dining experience is pleasurable. But what gives palpable purpose to this excellence is the realization of the Brooks family's risky dream of living a Connecticut life defined by the largesse and the limitations of the land." Stephanie Lyness, September 23, 2007

Connecticut Magazine - "The most thrilling out-of-the-way dining destination in recent years is the Still River Cafe in Eastford. ". . . serenely sophisticated barn-restaurant where farm-fresh ingredients are cooked and presented with exquisite finesse." July 2008

Hartford Courant - "Raise High The Roof Beams"
“Connecticut’s newest ‘important’ restaurant,” “provocatively special,” “a jewel box operation,” “a sophisticated place for grown-up palates,” and yet “wonderfully unpretentious.” November, 2006

Connecticut Magazine - "Culinary virtuosity on dazzling display.... Words fail. Taste tells. Eastford calls." August 2007

Norwich Bulletin - **** stars (out of 4)- "One of the best in Connecticut. Ambiance, service and every morsel worth savoring." October 2007

The 2007/08 ZAGAT Guide:
"Dining destination par excellence." Quiet Windham County is actually buzzing because foodies are making a beeline to a beautifully restored 150-year old barn in Eastford to dine at the Still River Café, where a couple of ex-corporate lawyers grow most of the organic ingredients used in their acclaimed cuisine." One of "the year's most notable arrivals."

NECN's TV Diner Review (Platinum Plate Award) - "One of the most elegant restaurant treasures for miles."

TV Diner's 2006 "Restaurant Most Worth the Drive in New England" Award

Mystic Times - "I would have to agree that this may have been the best meal I have ever had." Lee White, October 2007

Edible Nutmeg - "A Marriage of a Farm and a Restaurant: a chef, a vegetable grower and their field of dreams." Summer 2007
