    Our meal was delicious. We both had pork ribeyes that were so juicy and tender. The accompanying dishes just added to the enjoyment of the meal. My husband had the bread pudding for dessert and I had apple cider crème brûlée and both were quite good. Our server, Linda, was very helpful and we enjoyed talking to her. The wait staff was courteous and made sure we were well taken care of. Totally enjoyed our dining experience at the Dorset Inn.

    We sat by the fireplace at the front of the restaurant by the live music - such a great spot! Ordered Brussels sprouts, scallops, mac and cheese, mushroom risotto and the NY strip — everything was delicious and the two mocktails we had were so good! Jonathan was our server and he was wonderful, super nice, efficient, and helpful.
