"Wonderful hidden gem in the picturesque town of New Canaan. Delicious food and attentive service are part of what makes this place a DO NOT MISS spot for any occasion. Simply gorgeous, cannot say enough great things. New chef and new ownership have elevated it to an even more incredible level. Give it a try if you haven’t recently. You won’t be disappointed."

"We recently celebrated my father-in-law’s birthday at The Roger Sherman in New Canaan (just dinner, did not stay there), and while the food was excellent, it was the service that truly set the evening apart.

"The Roger Sherman in New Canaan, Connecticut, has long held a special place in my heart, and my recent experiences confirm it's better than ever! This historic establishment has been the backdrop for countless cherished memories, particularly during significant family gatherings like Easter and Mother's Day, where every dinner felt like a true celebration. Under its new management and new chef, The Roger Sherman has truly elevated its already high standards. I've had the pleasure of attending several events there..."

"We had an outstanding dining experience tonight at the Inn tonight in the bar area. The food was amazing and our waiter, Miguel, was the best. His recommendations and service were excellent. Please ask for one of his tables. He is just great! He knows how to make you feel like family at the Inn. Then the music started. What a great vibe. Soft songs from the past.. Vinny is a true musician that added such a great touch to..."
