**Restaurant Review: Forge and Vine**
Forge and Vine, a charming Groton destination, has garnered mixed feedback from patrons. While many diners rave about the creative dishes, attentive service, and excellent cocktails, others express disappointment with food quality and portion sizes. Signature items like scallops and ribeye have come under scrutiny for inadequate servings relative to price, and some diners found noise levels overwhelming. Despite these inconsistencies, the restaurant's welcoming atmosphere and strong fall menu have encouraged repeat visits. Overall, while Forge and Vine has potential, it seems to be navigating a turbulent phase that patrons hope will resolve.
Feedback
Next time, we plan to try the house-made vegan burger and the flatbread, which I suspect can be made without cheese. I’m curious if I brought along some handcrafted vegan cheese, they would add it to the flatbread, so I’ll call ahead to check. Overall, this is a beautiful restaurant with fantastic service, making it perfect for a lovely evening outdoors.
I ordered the vegan BLT burger, which came with mushroom bacon, along with a side of roasted cauliflower.
I ordered the vegan harvested pasture, and my sister chose the vegan burger, and both dishes were absolutely delicious! I'm really glad they included clearly identifiable vegan options on the menu since many restaurants in this area do not. We'll definitely be coming back often!
We had reservations for 6:30p but the restaurant already ran out of one menu item the scallops. Very disappointing in that 3 people in our party were going to get the scallops. Instead, my husband and I got the sea bass dish for two people. The fish was small, the vegetables were ordinary. It was billed on the menu as a dish for two people, but the portion was small and the dish was expensive. I would NOT recommend it. Not sure if we will return any time soon to Forge and Vine.
