I went to the Sheridan Livery Inn last weekend to celebrate my sister's graduation from law school. I was highly disappointed with the food and service. My husband ordered the crab dip and was upset to see there were no actual pieces of crab in the dip. Another member of our group and my husband ordered the shrimp and grits,... More

Overly ambitious menu, beautiful room, very loud. Best part is the warm gracious service. More

I love the mussels here. The staff understands that mussels are only good immediately from the pan to the table! More

Allez-y si vous passez par là. Faites le détour si vous êtes à moins de 50 kilomètres! La nourriture est excellente, cuisinée et cuite comme il le faut. Et à un prix... Pour vous mettre l'eau à la bouche: "Pan Seared Mahi Mahi with Porcini Beurre Blanc served with collard greens and carolina gold rice middlins over sweet potato sauce:... More

Neat place, if a little bit pricey! Food is reliably good, some dishes better than others. Enjoyed going here for Brunch. More

After a long day of driving, we were ready for a relaxing dinner with friends. The Sheridan did not disappoint. The cuisine is best described as "traditional...with a twist." It was difficult to make a decision; however, in the end, three out of four of us went for the shrimp and grits. Being a Southern gal, I'm particular about how... More

We enjoyed dinner at Sheridan Livery Inn with close friends, whom we seldom see, after a busy weekend of events. The Sheridan Livery Inn was a perfect choice for our group, as we were seeking an unhurried dinner and pleasant conversation in comfortable surroundings. The menu at Sheridan Livery Inn is traditional, with a few twists. The classic dishes we... More

I went here with my family on high recommendations and was rather disappointed! The service, though friendly, was unbelievably slow. There were very few other customers and we waited for a long time. The food in itself was fine though nothing special and certainly not worth the high price. I recommend trying another place, like the bistro on Main street. More

We dined at the Sheridan Livery after looking at the menus at several of the local restaurants. My meal was wonderful from start to finish. We began with the crab bisque. While no chunks of crabmeat were present, the taste was wonderfully rich and delicious. I hit the jackpot when I chose the NY Strip. It was cooked perfectly! It... More

We have not stayed at the Inn, but have dined there twice. It is a rather large space with the pleasant option of outdoor seating. The food is above average in general and the wine list is not very extensive or imaginative. However, the ravioli is to die for. There must be someone in the kitchen who understands pasta. On...
