Clos du Marquis - Stockbridge

My wife and I dined at this restaurant in 2016. The food was excellent, the service was great, and the atmosphere was nearly perfect, so we didn't hesitate to make a reservation for a special night. Unfortunately, we were let down. The food and service were very good as expected, but the ambiance was not so great, especially because of two children around 7-8 years old making a lot of noise, with their parents not doing much to quiet them down. I am not against children, as I have one myself and know how challenging it can be to keep them well-behaved. However, I wouldn't bring them to a place where I knew they would bother other diners trying to have a romantic evening. I believe the management should reconsider their policy on allowing children, if they want to attract repeat customers. I'm afraid I wouldn't take the chance of returning if I knew the restaurant was not adult-friendly.

Our friends recommended this restaurant and we were pleased that we decided to try it out. We had a hard time deciding from the extensive menu because everything looked appetizing. We ordered the pigeon and lamb main courses, and were impressed with the high quality of the food - none of the dishes disappointed. This is not a place for quick meals, but rather for a leisurely evening enjoying a fantastic meal in a laid-back atmosphere. The wine selection was vast and reasonably priced, although we were a bit let down by the Malbec that we chose. Overall, we highly recommend this restaurant.

A warm and attentive reception, followed by a very tasty lunch, with a good and sensibly-priced wine list.

This was our sixth visit to this restaurant for lunch with my wife and two friends, and as always, we had a great time. We perused the menu by the cozy fireplace while being entertained by the adorable pigs. We all opted for different starters and main courses, but they all had a French twist. We ended the meal with some deliciously made coffees, topped with homemade chocolate.

As usual excellent. Quiet with attentive and friendly service
