Noah's Restaurant is chef owned and operated. We are a small 75 seat casual
fine dining restaurant with bar located in the heart of historic Stonington
Borough just seven miles east along the coast
from downtown Mystic. For 28 years we have been obsessed with scratch cooking
of basic, fresh and where ever possible local, ingredients. A few examples of
our culinary craziness are fish, oysters,
tomatoes, wine (check out
the links! I added some pictures last week of a few of the nearest farmers,
fishermen, aquaculture).
So we started with a simple idea. Go for a distinctive
flavor and quality in our dishes by actually making
them on the premises. The results of our "slow
scratch" cooking other than a lot of work and high
labor costs is that we're still in business. In fact,
we are the oldest continually operating, under the same
ownership, restaurant in Stonington after the Steak
Loft.
Noah's is actually two storefronts, on the left entrance
side is our horseshoe shaped mahogany bar and the right
side is the dining room. A tin ceiling, and paddle fans,
cherry booths, and an ever changing art show on the
walls give the dining room a warm inviting tone. Our
local clientele keeps us open round. In fact, I like
to think of us as "just around the corner",
which we literally are for the residents of the borough.
For the wider, larger population from Providence to
New Haven to Hartford we offer a worthwhile hour excursion.
And for the long distance traveler we're "worth
a detour" to copy the Michelin green guide terminology.
We are open all day and into the night serving breakfast,
lunch, and dinner menus at the appropriate times.
