Trufflehunter

I give the food 5 stars, the service was more like 3. The Truffle Hunter is a small restaurant in an old historic house. The service was a little slow, but the restaurant was buzzing, at about 1pm. The food is American: sandwiches, burgers, salads, steak, etc. I ordered “The Stash” which is a cold roast beef sandwich, and it was sooo good! My mom ordered the mushroom burger and said it was really good. The portions are humongous. One meal could easily serve two people. We also shared an order of their beer battered fries, which were pretty good. Their bread is homemade and so tasty! The restaurant was decorately nicely, but the dinning room was a little loud. Not too bad, but definitely not quiet. I have also heard that the desserts are really good, but we did not save room to try any.

We enjoy dining here in Winter on dark and gloomy days. The comfort food served here is mouth watering and the portions are large. They serve pastas, wonderful hot and cold sandwiches and a varied selection of steaks. In our minds they are most well known for their Yankee Pot Roast and Slow Roasted Turkey. Like I said…comfort food.

The atmosphere is pleasant and homey as it is in an old residence. When busy you feel in tight quarters although everyone is always pleasant like a big happy family.

We have never experienced poor service and intend on going back a few times each winter.

I honestly just don’t get all the love for this place. The food isn’t awful, it just reminds me of the meals we used to get when we’d go visit my grandma at her retirement home. Just bland, generic, inoffensive American food. Their “specialty” mushroom soup seriously underwhelmed me and the “homemade” bread was dry and day-old tasting. I’ve only been there a couple of times but haven’t had anything that made me want to go back. Maybe it’s more of a nostalgia thing for some people? The atmosphere is nice, I guess, if you’re into that kind of thing.

This restaurant looks like an old house remodeled and made into a quaint little restaurant. It has a beautiful atmosphere with beautiful decorations, tables with lacy clothes and the entire seating area is like dining in an old-fashioned home. The lunch menu’s main attraction is the unique sandwiches made on giant peices of home-made bread made by the restaurant on a daily basis with a different specialty flavor every day along with 3-4 traditional flavors to choose from. In the evening there are many homestyle meals served, such as “Yankee Pot Roast”, “Fish and Chips”, “Meatloaf”, and many other’s served as if Grandma was serving her favorite Sunday Dinner for a big family. Be prepared for this restaurant to be very busy at regular lunch and dinner hours. However long the line is to be seated, it is well worth the wait. Servings are large and the food is exquisite!

We had lunch today at TruffleHunter. First time I had been there and first time in a long time for my fella. My goodness. The sandwich was outstanding, the bread delicious and huge! We brought half of our sandwiches home. Add the Garlic Fries and it’s a meal and a half. Plan on going there much more often. Prices are quite reasonable for the amount of food that you are provided. Highly recommended.

The Minuette Sandwich is my favorite and their sourdough bread isn’t sour – it’s awesome! Another favorite is their stuffed potato. A full meal in itself.

Country cooking at it’s best, great service, good prices— what more could you ask for?
