Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Palisades Northwest

Delicious, healthy food! Loved the ambience - quiet, sophisticated with great wall art.

Delicious food- we had mixture of spreads, vegetables and meats everything was really good. Overall we had a great experience!

What we ate was very good, but it is a limited menu with a lot of sausage and peppers on the menu, neither of which I like. I didn't find much on the menu that appealed to me so it was hard to order. I ended up eating a salad and an appetizer. My companion had a basic salad and pasta dish with sausage which was good. Pizza choices were good, but I wasn't in the mood for so much starch for dinner. At first we were shown seats next to a right next to a couple when there were many open seats, then shown seats next to a table of 6 - so I suggested a table at the end which was a table away from the first couple. These days, I prefer to keep my privacy and germs away from others - especially when the restaurant was probably 80% empty. Service was very good; prices relatively high for a very average-looking, boring atmosphere. I really wanted to like it more but doubt I'll be back unless it's for a lunch or menu changes

Our recent visit to Founding Farmers was exceptional, offering a delightful culinary journey that pleased the entire family. We began by sharing the Buttermilk Biscuits and a medley of autumn vegetables. The biscuits were impressively large, featuring a crunchy exterior that gave way to a soft, fluffy center—truly a perfect start to our meal. For the main courses: •Youngest Son: Opted for the Sirloin Chili, which he thoroughly enjoyed. The chili boasted a balanced spiciness, making it both flavorful and approachable. •Mom: Chose the Goat Cheese Ravioli & Chicken Cutlet, a dish accompanied by butternut squash purée and pecan praline butter. The combination was exquisite, earning a solid 9.7/10 for its harmonious flavors and presentation.  •Dad: Selected the Farmhouse Platter, which included fried chicken, BBQ pork ribs, baby cheeseburgers, street corn, and coleslaw. He cleared his plate, a testament to the meal’s excellence.  •Teenager: Enjoyed the Meatloaf & Gravy, served with mashed potatoes and green beans. He expressed high praise for the dish, noting its rich flavor and satisfying portion.  Even the house-made sodas were delightful, adding a refreshing touch to our dining experience. Our waiter, Anthony, provided outstanding service, enhancing our meal with his attentive and friendly demeanor. The food was so impressive that we decided to purchase the restaurant’s cookbook to recreate some of the dishes at home. Founding Farmers offers a warm atmosphere, exceptional service, and delectable farm-to-table cuisine. It’s a dining experience we highly recommend and look forward to repeating.

Excellent time at the Tabard Inn for a leisurely lunch. Food and atmosphere was great;
