Rebellion Kitchen and Bar

One word: wow! This was the most delicious meal I'd had in awhile. The family and I came around the holidays and we enjoyed a lovely dinner. The ambiance is so chic and classic. Reminds me of an old style bar and grill with lots of wood and metal accents. The drinks were fantastic and the service was very attentive. We all equally enjoyed our meals and shared some bites so everyone got to try. I had the mushroom toast as my main dish and I could eat that every day it was just scrumptious and perfect. I tried bites of the pasta pasta and the farro and both were so tasty. I liked the variety of the menu but appreciate it wasn't overwhelming huge. My one caveat is that I do think the portions especially for the salad could be improved upon as it felt quite small for the price. We hope to come back soon and will have to look out for any happy hour specials they have!

Please go to this beautifully decorated restaurant so it doesn't close. It would be a shame. Tough location but great service and food.

This was my third time visiting Rebellion but my first time getting food! First of all, the cocktails are some of the best I've ever had! Different and delicious! This time we ate dinner from their updated winter menu and it did not disappoint! We had the autumn tings and black cherry manhattan drinks.. so good! For food we split the burger (and made it a double which was huge and amazing haha) and then did the meatballs, calamari and Brussels. Everything was fantastic and so flavorful. We will be back soon!

My boyfriend and I came here on a whim because we were in the area, we were not disappointed! We sat at the bar and made conversation with 4 others who were seated next to us. We started with cocktails (they were great but I forgot what we ordered) but quickly moved on to the sangria at the recommendation of our bar mates. That was the winner! We shared the patatas brava (lovely), olive tapenade crostini (this was my boyfriend's fave), and the king trumpet with the farro (my fave, so tasty!). We will have to come back again to try the other offerings. The bartender was friendly and helpful and made great drinks. It was a beautiful space with leather, wood, and dark walls. My only complaint is that the bar chairs feel too short, I felt like I needed a booster seat (the other girls at the bar were complaining about this too), but this didn't take away from the experience, overall.

This place was a pleasant surprise, even though its location--between a gas station and a liquor store on a side road--was a bit odd. But don't let that fool you; the interior is very nice and modern. The night I visited, they had live music, which I usually don't enjoy, but it wasn't distracting. The cocktails were delicious and reasonably priced at $13. We didn't try much of the food, but the fried calamari was exceptional. I'd definitely return for happy hour. One interesting thing to note is that the bar seats are quite low, which can be a bit uncomfortable. So, keep that in mind if you're planning to sit there for a while.

We came by for a Sunday brunch. And while we were the only ones there, it felt like our little secret. They have a small but very potent brunch menu. Sure, they have pancakes -- delish. But they also mix things up. I got the short rib with potatoes and an egg over medium. It was that right mix of everything that a brunch should have -- salt, a little fat, sweet, great meat, etc. The duck confit with egg was similarly flavorful with a bit of duck gravy to boot. Service (Mia) was very friendly and helpful. Good drinks too and cool vibes inside. We look forward to coming back for a dinner; the kitchen seems to know what it's doing so this is well worth the drive off the highway.

Finally! We are so excited to try this swanky new restaurant down the road from us. The interesting outside decor caught my eye as we drove past it one day. The inside is even more beautiful. Cognac leather seats, edison style bulbs providing golden lighting... it's gorgeous. Everything we ordered was delicious. The Bronzino was crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. The short ribs were full of flavor and trying the polenta might be the first time I've thought it actually tasted good at a restaurant. Often I find them to be gritty and cold. But here they were rich, warm, and creamy. The staff was very friendly and attentive. They seem like kind and genuine people, just cooking good food for People.

Run, don't walk to check out Danbury's newest restaurant! The owner, Tim, has created something so special that you won't find anywhere else in the area. The decor inside is absolutely gorgeous. You can tell a lot of work went into creating this space for people to enjoy. We went for brunch, and loved it so much we hung out at the bar until dinner just to try some of their entrees. I had the steak and eggs for brunch, and the steak was cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The show stopper was the short rib. Short ribs are so hit or miss when dining out, and these were the best we've ever had. For dinner we tried the buccatini and the seafood pasta (Mar Nero). The pasta in both dishes was cooked perfectly and the sauces were so well done. Tim stopped to chat with us about the creation of this restaurant, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was satisfied with their meals. The craft cocktails at the bar were so delicious. There are no wrong choices here. Even if you're outside the Danbury area, it's worth a trip just for this place. A huge thank you to Tim and the whole Rebellion Kitchen team for bringing something new and innovative to Danbury.

Service and ambiance: 5/5! We really loved the space and everyone was very friendly. People checked in on us regularly. Live music is a nice touch. The table was clean and comfortable. The bar also looks nice. Food: 3/5. the squid ink pasta was ok, didn't love the sauce and the pasta was a little undercooked. The duck was decent but came with the tiniest splatter of polenta which didn't taste great. For the prices the portion sizes and flavors didn't fully add up for us. A good happy hour spot and a cute space
