Falls Village Inn
The Falls Village Inn occupies an historic building — originally built 175 years ago as a railroad hotel — set in an historic town. Now the railroad rolls through town carrying only freight, but The Falls Village Inn remains, offering Bunny Williams-designed guest rooms and a reliable, well-prepared menu curated by new Executive Chef Addison Todd. Appetizers include the bang-bang crispy calamari ($14) bed of lettuce; Maryland crab, jalapeno, scallion and goat cheese wontons ($14), and crispy house wings ($13. The Mediterranean salad ($14) includes roasted red peppers, artichokes, chickpeas, cucumbers, feta cheese and tahini dressing. Entrees include the Falls Village Bridge burger ($15) that commemorates the re-opening of the bridge across the nearby Housatonic River and features local Whippoorwill Farms grass-fed beef. Long a favorite at The Inn, the lobster mac ‘n’ cheese ($25), features fresh Maine lobster, three cheeses (Vermont cheddar, Gruyere and cream cheese) and is topped with a Parmesan panko breadcrumb crust. The pan-roasted cod ($24) sits atop a bed of creamy white beans and ratatouille-style vegetables. The goat cheese-stuffed chicken breast ($24) is served over a wonderful ragout of potato, sweet corn, smoked bacon, fennel and mushrooms. The signature entrée is steak and frites ($28), a New York strip steak grilled and topped with a bernaise butter, complemented by housemade fries. Desserts change with the season. Portions are ample and “take home” cartons are often in view. Read the full review.
