Fodor's Expert Review Restaurant du Village

A black wrought-iron gate beckons you away from the boutiques of Chester's Main Street, and an off-white awning draws you through the door of this classic little Colonial storefront, painted in historic Newport blue and blooming with flower boxes. Here you can sample exquisite French country cuisine—escargots broiled in garlic and parsley sauce in the traditional Alsatian manner or crispy roast duckling with olives, raisins, and sun-dried tomatoes in port wine sauce—while recapping the day's shopping coups.
