RSVP

Leave your allergies at home. No substitutions! ONLY go if you're prepared to let the chef make ALL the decisions. Like many others, I celebrated my birthday at RSVP. What a place! Unique food experience. I dare not say this is a meal. This is a night out. Expect 3 hours of fun, chat and new friends. It's a very small, very exclusive environment where you meet the chef and the tables around for a fun chat, then meal. Bring your own wine, sit back and let the environment take over.

The food was exceptionally delicious, and the experience was very pleasant. You don't get a menu, you eat what the chef brings out. We had six courses. Officially it was five, the amuse bouche was substantial like an appetizer. Wasabi ice cream that was part of the amuse bouche started out the dinner with a bang. I really enjoyed it. It was followed by soup. Then a chicken dish, then a seafood dish, then a beef dish. Each one was excellent with interesting sides and sauces. Then coffee and dessert. The dinner lasted three hours. $140 per person. Plenty of free parking in the front.

We just celebrated my birthday at RSVP. After having made reservations a month ahead, we were excited to finally experience the unique dining concept offered by this restaurant. No menu from which to order, no bar (BYOB), no credit cards taken, no dietary restrictions or substitutions allowed. The only requirements needed here are an adventurous spirit regarding food and a willingness to embrace whatever culinary delights Chef Guy chooses to prepare for the evening. We spent such a fantastic summer afternoon and evening in the peaceful town of West Cornwall, CT.

Dinner begins with a loaf of freshly baked bread with creamy butter. Next comes an amuse-bouche followed by soup, poultry, seafood, meat, and dessert courses. Each course is truly a surprise and I found myself eagerly anticipating what would come next. Trust me, you will find yourself happily immersed in 3 hours of delectable cuisine all of which is perfectly proportioned, plated, and timed in its presentation. Charles is your host, server, and busboy all rolled into one. Charles and Guy have perfected a winning dining formula and you won’t find any restaurant owners more “hands on” than these two gentlemen. I already want to go back in a different season.

What an amazing experience we had at RSVP! The food, service, atmosphere- just everything was amazing. We traveled over an hour for our first time here, not knowing what to expect and it truly exceeded our expectations and then some. If you appreciate excellent food and personable hosts, you will love it here. I definitely recommend giving it a try and bringing your favorite wine to pair! Can't wait to come back.

Loved being surprised by the food and it reminded me of bistros in France. Truly unique dining experience impossible to find anything similar or equal elsewhere in New England. Excellent food and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Nice to see the open exposed kitchen and chef working away. Very much looking forward to trying it again to see what they serve on a different night. This place is for the diner who is happy and willing to go along for the ride as there is no menu. To me, it’s a delight. Frankly, anyone that isn’t in for this experience strikes me as rather boring. But to each his own. Bring your own wine. Maybe a couple wine options(as we did) since you don’t know what will be served. If you’re an adventurous foodie RSVP is a must. Worth a trip from far IMHO.

Absolutely amazing! The food was delicious and perfectly executed. Would highly recommend this to anyone in the area.

One of those hidden gems that I’m almost hesitant to review for fear of giving away the secret. Nonetheless, an awesome, unique experience every time. Embodies the character of northwest CT.

Absolutely AMAZING experience. The chef and host are both so much fun and made the experience that much better. The food was incredible, it's very clear that each dish was crafted with the utmost care. Will definitely be back again. Such a gem in a quaint town

What a gem of a find. They have been here for 20 years and we just discovered them. I worked in a french restaurant and this is truly one of excellent cuisine. Bring your appetite for this pris fixed meal.It is worth it!!

Great place. Filled almost exclusively with regulars and repeat customers. Highly recommend it for small groups, particularly if you like wine. It's BYOB and definitely caters to those who enjoy opening nice bottles with friends. Owners are great and food was really good.

A very special experience. Lovingly cooked French cuisine served in a spectacular way. The food is excellent. The space is small so reservations are mandatory. BYOB relative to wine and spirits. Plan on spending several hours.

The restaurant & area it's in, is in & of itself a beautiful & peaceful place. The owners are welcoming & friendly. The meal was amazing, there was not one thing I didn't enjoy. As a local, I want to thank the owners. They treated the locals as well as they did the wealthy NYer's & that is a rare quality these days. Thank you✌♥😁

A humble restaurant located in the rolling hills of Cornwall that will serve you delicious samples of professional heartfelt cooking. Bring your appetite!

One of the finest gourmet French restaurants in the Northwest Corner of Connecticut. Open Friday, Saturday, Sunday nights by reservation only (March through early December). May you be lucky enough to get a reservation the night Chef Guy is making tuna tartare with Wasabi ice cream as one of several courses. Bon Appetit!

Always top shelf. Put this place on your bucket list! A must experience for anyone who loves great food and company. The guys are terrific.

Love, love, love this West Cornwall treasure owned by neighbors and friends Charlie and Guy!

Another fabulous dinner with Charles and Guy. Makes your reservations ASAP for the spring season at RSVP.

Loved this place we experienced with great friends and this French restaurant is a "must do" if you are a foodie, the atmosphere is a perfect French country setting

My cousin surprised me with reservations here. What a very special experience it was. Simply fantastic.

Well worth the price that you pay. One of the best meals I've ever had.
