Gates has been one of New Canaan’s must-visit restaurants for over 30 years, and they’re going strong. Named after the gorgeous 19th century wrought iron gates at the entrance, Gates has a warm, airy ambience with plenty of seating. Service is fast and professional, making it a great place for just about any occasion. One of the strongest suits of this restaurant is consistency – you always know what you’re going to get from a meal here. Dinner is probably when they’re busiest, with popular dishes including the tasty seafood brochette with herb butter over couscous and the fine pasta dishes. Lunch is primarily burgers and sandwiches, all well-conceived and executed. Try the Bellagio sandwich – chicken breast, avocado, bacon, lettuce and tomato with basil mayonnaise. The Sunday brunch is very popular – their croissants with strawberry butter win raves from everybody who tries them. Prices are reasonable.
