TW Food has been our destination restaurant for special occasions for some years now. Never been disappointed! The thought and care that goes into the food preparation is outstanding. The service is excellent. The owners' commitment to providing an excellent experience is visible and palpable.

Everything was just perfect with our dinner at the small intimate restaurant. Wait staff were excellent. Food was well prepared and delicious. Wine list was just the right size. Will certainly go back again and try some other dishes. The scrambled egg app was excellent, a must try.

I've been fortunate enough to eat twice at T.W. Food in the past month or so, and I can't recommend it enough. The only thing I did wrong was waiting too long to come the first time! This place is cozy and intimate, with a small kitchen that's partially open. They're making incredibly fresh, interesting food in there! Apparently the... More

We arrived cold but way before our reservation for brunch. The accommodating and friendly and relaxed staff worked us in. We ate GREAT FOOD* while we talked over the quiet yet enegized jazz band. Hope we get to come again soon. *French toast with apples & maple syrup; scarlet turnip soup; lobster eggs Benedict; wonderful coffee.

Looking for a delicious and intimate meal? This is the place to go. The Blue Hubbard soup with scallops appetizer was unbelievable. And the swordfish was superb. Love this place!

I went to this restaurant with friends, after a long working day, and it was the most creative food ever. They have two chefs working in perfect coordination. There is an amazing tobacco ice cream as part of a fine dessert that I highly recommend. Another think I liked was their flexibility to prepare some disher with or without some... More

Wow. We had the most amazing brunch here today--fixed pice three course for $33 (inclusive of juice/tea/coffee). As a bonus, starting at 11 AM--there was a great little jazz quartet...on guitar was the Chef! Every food item was perfect, but not fussy. Service likewise is seamless but not obtrusive. This place is tiny-maybe it seats 25--so reservations are a must.... More

This was the absolute best dining experience my friends and I have had--and we've shared some great ones! We gave it a 100 out of 10! My first impression of T.W. Food was in making the reservation, and the courtesy and knowledge of the staff was notable and carried through our visit. When I find a restaurant that focuses on... More

This tiny restaurant is tucked away but well worth seeking out. Foodies will appreciate the surprising food pairings and if you can afford to pair the prix free with wines - you're in for a fun evening. On a side note, it's always fun to see the fresh food deliveries from local farms - the mushroom farmer is straight out... More

Had the vegetarian tasting menu with accompanying wines. All was delicious. The service was exceptional. I don't usually spend this much on a dinner, but I've already started saving up for my next trip to this place.
