The Candle Light Inn Restaurant Review

: There’s been enough updating at this old country inn to please modern palates, but not so much that the place has lost touch with the gracious values of its 85-plus-years' history. The dining rooms are soothing in muted cocoa and white. Service is formal without being stiff. And the menu, compact and well balanced, corrals the essentials --- meat, poultry and seafood --- into a pleasing array. Grilled pork tenderloin is accompanied by sweet potato purée, braised winter greens and apples; seared salmon is paired with polenta and wild mushrooms; and sautéed trout almandine is served with fingerling potatoes, spinach and jumbo lump crab. And the special children’s menu includes filet mignon. This is civilized dining, just old-fashioned enough to offer an evening’s oasis from workaday cares.
