Love this restaurant! We have never had a bad meal. Last night was particularly amazing for everyone in our party. The short ribs were incredible. The swordfish was perfect in flavor and texture with a magnificent sauce. As usual, the scallops were amazing.

This was our first time at Puritan and Co., and we had a great experience with the seasonal tasting menu and wine pairing. All five courses were delicious, and we enjoyed learning about the locally sourced ingredients - shout out to the farm in Groton! Our first course, the tomato salad with lemon mascarpone and pickled strawberries, was divine; the gnocchi, scallops, duck confit and dessert were equally tasty. Our server was very nice, and the drinks and food came with good timing. We loved the value of the tasting menu and will certainly return in the future to see how the menu evolves as the seasons change.

We had dinner on 4th Oct and had a wonderful overall experience. The waitstaff were extremely attentive, service was quick and oh my goodness the flat-iron steak was incredible. Cooked to perfection and served beautifully. I would recommend asking for the peppercorn sauce on the side. We also had clam chowder and brown butter cornbread which were both excellent. Would highly recommend a visit to Stephanie’s.
