Southwestern Connecticut Restaurants

Dressing Room

Dressing Room Review

Opened by the late Paul Newman and renowned cookbook author Michel Nischan in 2006, this pretheater favorite, beside the Wesport Playhouse, celebrates regional American, farm-to-table cuisine. Many ingredients on the menu are sourced locally; others come from prominent ranches and farms around the country. Highlights include the baby back ribs, served with an apple-cabbage slaw, and seasonal items like the Connecticut lobster succotash with fresh corn, zucchini, and roasted peppers. A huge fieldstone fireplace warms the rustic-chic dining room, with its sturdy ceiling beams and barn-board walls.
