Husband and I were visiting from out of state and found this place on Google. We figured we would give it a try. We went on a Thursday night, they had live jazz, great drinks, & great food! Hannah was wonderful. Everything was delicious. They also have non-alcoholic IPA. Highly recommend, very chill atmosphere. We will be back.

A relative new restaurant in New London area with farm to table approach. Food are fresh and cooked from scratch. House salad was great with fresh arugular with shaved red onions, topped with sun flower seeds and mixed in with some light vinaigrette. Mussels with sausage in red sauce was quite nice. Chorizo sausage pasta was a hit with homemade thick noodle mingled with pearl onions and white sauce. Pork chop was thick and juicy accompanied by mash potato with collard green. For dessert, apple cobbler with vanilla ice cream closed out the meal nicely..

My family and I recently dined at RD86 for brunch on Father’s Day. Very welcoming atmosphere and staff plus their “dog friendly” policy allowed my daughter’s new dog to join us.

Just honestly amazing. The space is clean and well decorated with a nice vibe and the staff seems very close knit and communicates very well! The food. Down right amazing. The prices are extremely competitive and well portioned! I asked some extra questions about the food and asked for a substitution as well and they accommodated it without any hesitation. Truly a great time and good food. GET THE APPLE PIE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!

Fantastic! First time here. Mainly a BBQ outdoorsy urban area under a tent eatery, however has a fantastic test kitchen attached, along with fun indoor countryside classic table and bar entire. Bathroom clean. But needs a division between toilet and urinal. Would definitely go back.

Greattt place to sit and eat, and chat, very welcoming and peaceful atmosphere I definitely love it and sad I don’t live around to come here more often I had their spring salad and a strawberry mimosa and both surpassed the expectations

Im so happy that New London has the beautiful gem that is RD86’s Taco Tuesday. This place is so adorable, romantic and hip. They did a great job with not only the design of the location but they also have a beautifully crafted menu. I’ve come here three times and every time they raise the bar. (The pork tacos will save your life but the chicken tacos (pictured below) are really good too.)

Was pulled in by the live music!! This is a great get in New London, a perfect out door space to enjoy a couple of drink with some friends and enjoy some live entertainment. The Benny Velazquez band was playing when we went and they are FANTASTIC!!!! they did a Billie Jean by MJ mixed with a song for my father rendition that was amazing!! Now the food was delicious too we had the wings, sangria’s, and apple pie!!! Oh my goodness!!! Don’t judge but that pie was so good!!!!!

I’m a big fan of how Hanna and Robert are turning the business model of restauranteering on it’s head. Thier ideas are as fresh as their food. I can’t wait to experience their brunch!
