Brunch at the Dakota Restaurant on Route 44 in Avon
On Sundays, these well-loved steak and seafood houses have your fill of standard brunch fare with some exciting embellishments thrown in.
If you're leaning toward the breakfast side of the equation, the chef will make an omelet to order or you can visit steaming trays of scrambled eggs, country sausage, bacon and spiced home fries. Swing by the bread, cheese and pastry table for muffins, croissants and water rolls or try a crispy Belgian waffle with fruit, syrup or chocolate sauce and a dollop of fresh whipped cream.
There is a fresh fruit and cereal station with varieties of grapes, melon, pineapple, berries and dried fruit like golden raisins and cranberries.
For those with lunch in mind the carving station offers roast beef and ham. Around the corner is a tray of smoked oysters, capers, horseradish sauce and roasted garlic and red peppers.
The salad bar is small but interesting. There are the expected raw vegetables along with some nice marinated salad combinations.
For dessert you can take the elegant route and savor a couple of golf-ball-size strawberries dipped in chocolate with your champagne, or you can take the downtown train and get a refill of coffee and indulge in brownies, carrot cake, pies, eclairs or Jell-o.

We had our rehearsal dinner here on 9/26/08 and it could not have been better. The service was top notch - attentive staff worked hard to see that all our needs were met. Hillary, you are the best! The food was also wonderful - prepared with attention to flavor and it was abundant. I can't say enough about how delighted we were. We were a group of 40 people and there was plenty of food - all hot and served at the same time. The bruchetta and stuffed eggplant were especially yummy. Don't miss a chance to dine at this cozy restaurant, where service and taste reign.

Amazing!!! I live right down the road and keep driving by the Inn but havne't gone in- but they had this great piano player there the other weekend who i have seen at other places in the area- and when i heard he was going to be at the Inn i stopped in.
The food was delicious- perfectly cooked- great flavors- really amazing. I haven't had that kind of food in a while. The place was packed that night- it was great. I love older buildings and this one really takes the cake- 250 something years old- absolutely beautiful on the inside. I highly recommend this place ot anyone looking for a fun weekend night out at a place with amazing food!!!

This is a nice little shop that my wife bought her wedding and prom gowns from. I believe that my Mother purchased her gown for our wedding here as well. What's nice is that there is a sitting area for the men while the woman are upstairs trying on dresses. They have wall to wall dresses, from black tie gowns to wedding gowns as well as shoes to choose from. Some shoes can be dyed but some are leather and can be worn as is. At times, this place can be difficult to find someone to assist you with questions as they tend to cater to wealthy or return clients first. But once you are being helped, it's a great place with knowledgeable staff. They do have sales periodically and these dresses are located in the back of the first floor, down the couple of stairs, near the dressing rooms and shoes.
