Story

The Place Restaurant is a truly unusual outdoor seafood restaurant in Guilford CT where visitors dine outdoors while a crackling wood fire roasts savory clams, smoky lobsters, sweet corn and much more. Instead of chairs, tree stumps encircle bright red tables, decorated with a bottle of freshly cut flowers. One large menu towers over the dining area, allowing diners to see all their options as smiling waitstaff come to take their order. It is BYOB but soft drinks are available. Also bring along any of your favorite sides to pair with your meal and make it a truly personalized experience!

Open for the season by or before May 1st through September, then weekends in October. Weather permitting, call for details.

Cash or check only, no credit cards accepted. ATM accessible nearby.

The Place is hands-down one of my favorite restaurants. Its simplicity is exactly what makes it great, and this is almost as simple as it can get. There is a giant wood fire grill that the staff prepares all the food on. And then there are wooden stumps as seats surrounding each table where you will eat that delicious grilled food. All the seating is outdoors, and everything adds up to a wonderful time. It's also BYOB, so be prepared!

The food here was delicious. We ordered corn and lobster. The corn was nicely grilled and came out before the lobster. It was my first time eating lobster, and while I'm no later expert, I can say that this was very juicy and tender. If I return, I'd really like to try the clams, as I saw others eating them and they looked delicious. Other families brought crackers and wine, but if you're coming from the beach like I was, you can order soda or Snapple at The Place. The service was great and the atmosphere was everything I hoped it would be!

Definitely a unique place. Worth a stop. If you aren't local, you should know you could bring your own sides and a cooler with beer/ wine. It would have been good to know this. Also, bring seasonings and sauces. The food is great tho. Loved the corn. We're from Tennessee, and stopped on our way thru. Would have brought stuff if we knew!
