Foundry Kitchen and Tavern

We sat outside, and with the beautiful weather it was just the best option. The place has a nice view from the outside tables. It is really cute. The food was delicious. We arrive to what seemed to be a shift change but that was not a problem at all. We got our appetizer and in a really timed manner our entries. Almost as soon as we were done with the shared appetizer.

The tuna was delicious!

Great dinner with my wife. Waiters first day, service was perfect. Holy mole cocktail-spicy for me at the start but a good choice, rest of the cocktails looked good. Short rib dumplings were hot, crunchy and tasty. Miso salmon flaky and moist. Mochi cake with ice cream for dessert. Delicious meal, quiet on a Wednesday and perfect service.

I have to say, this is becoming one of my favorite places to come and see what new vegan options they have on their menu! Most recently I got the vegan fried rice and, though a bit salty, was delicious and very layered! And of course, sitting outside provides a peaceful and natural atmosphere to enhance your meal all the more. Looking forward to see what they have when I come next time!

The wait staff is always upbeat and accommodating. Food is delicious. The fried tofu is my favorite appetizer. My husband is a huge fan of the bao buns. It's a cool building with good vibes. Great for a date night or brunch.

Our first visit and certainly won’t be our last. We took advantage of Newtown Restaurant Week specials. Surprising menu of quality choices. I highly recommend the short rib dumplings.

Stopped in here for lunch on a Friday. The indoor part of the restaurant is so nicely decorated, very fun vibe. We sat on the covered outside patio overlooking the river, such a cute spot. We ordered 4 appetizers and one entree to share, the meals were so unique, delicious and so fresh. The service was great! They are so friendly and so attentive. We can't wait to come back. This is now one of our favorite places!

This place was great! Staff was friendly and welcoming, atmosphere was laid back and the food was delicious!!! We had the short rib dumplings to start, try them you won’t be disappointed! Then we enjoyed the half fried chicken dinner which was extremely filling and the Nashville hot chicken. Overall a great place if you’re looking for a cozy & warm vibe!

One of our favorite restaurants in Connecticut! The food is always delicious. We have not tried anything we were not thoroughly satisfied with. Their Brunch French Toast is unlike any we have ever had, must try.

I recently had my baby shower at the Foundry loft (the upstairs floor), and had an absolutely wonderful experience. Mary and her event staff were very easy to work with - extremely personable, accommodating, and organized. The space itself is quaint and sophisticated, with windows surrounding the entire room and a skylight. It's a truly unique space for any sort of special event. We opted for brunch food which was so delicious and all of the guests were raving about how good it was. I strongly consider looking into Foundry for your event... or even just for a nice dinner out!

Very nice Mother's Day brunch for mom and her family. Most of us had the Wakey Wakey, which was very good. Although for the price ($18), I did think there could be more potatoes, bacon and kielbasa - all of which were excellent but I wanted more! Service and ambiance were quite nice. Lots of parking in adjacent lot.

Wow!! We were super lucky that we wandered into this place for lunch. The quality of all the food was superb. Easily one of the most delicious plates of nachos I have ever had. The sauce was a unique fresh spin to the dish, and the tajin seasoning was simply spot-on. We also ordered the impossible burger and mushroom po-boy, both of which we will reorder. Ah, and then the fries...I want more!

The food was good but what impressed me the most is the ambience of the place. It is located on the river front. Loved the view and the vibe while enjoying my food. Foundry Kitchen makes it to the "must-go" places on the list. I highly recommend this place and would love to go back there whenever I am in the area

If your looking for a authentic feeling, sit down restaurant in the Sandy Hook area, then look no further. With exceptional service and food cooked to perfection you really get it all here. I highly recommend the short rib dumplings as an appetizer to show they mean business.

Had a great time here on Wednesday! Enjoyed some great drinks (the floor is guava) and great dinner as well. I enjoyed the Miso Braised Salmon which was amazing, and my friend had the classic burger which she enjoyed and I brought home the Huli Huli Pulled Pork for my boyfriend and he also wants to take a trip to Newtown now to see the Foundry for himself!

Our server was kind and attentive, and especially patient as we took our time ordering since my friend and I had a lot to catch up on and never made us feel rushed. I appreciated her patience and I wish I could remember her name, but she was great!

Definitely will be back next time I’m passing through.

LOVE this spot. The best fried chicken, the best street corn nachos. Omg everything is so good. Yummy cocktails. Great great spot.

Don’t walk, run to the Foundry in Newtown/Sandy Hook. One of the owners is vegan, so there are several options on the menu. And not just your run-of-the-mill options. These are really well thought out delicious meals. I got the street corn nachos that had cashew queso on them. I asked if they sold the cashew queso because I would’ve bought a gallon of it. ( they don’t). Lol. I also got a green curry dish with vegetables. I ended up bringing that one home. But it looked beautiful. They also have an amazing variety of delicious mocktails. Worth a day trip if you aren’t close by. Lots of great hiking in that part of the state. We went after hiking Steep Rock Preserve in Washington Depot. I’m def going to be a regular at The Foundry. ( make rezzies if u can as others appear to already know about how great this place is!!)

The foundry is a great place to have a meal. Lunch is great with a buddy. Dinner is great for your family or a date. I do feel like they are understaffed. Went to lunch twice in the last 2 months, and it's always just one waiter, and one bartender, even though the place gets packed. They do a bang-up job but I feel like management should hire more people.

Great service on a busy Memorial Day weekend. The food was very good, I highly recommend this spot if you are in the area.

We stopped by at this place for brunch on our way back from our appointment with the wedding venue. The food is so amazing and the environment is very cozy. The price is reasonable.We live in Norwalk and we hardly find places like there in the local area. It was a busy Sunday but the service was good.

Bartender was awesome, never waited for a drink. Food was great and atmosphere was a vibe. Would recommend
