Stage Restaurant

Last week was the first time visiting the The Stage. I planned a bachelorette party for 12. The dinner was excellent, the service beyond reproach and the drinks were tasty. Every member of our group was impressed with the food quality which rivaled 5 star restaurants in larger cities like NY, San Diego and Chicago. Keene has a treasure in The Stage.

to keep this short and sweet, the food was outstanding! loved the diversity on the menu, our waitress was incredibly friendly as was the rest of the staff, she went out of her way to make sure we were taken care of and thats not easy for 10 people. definitely will be coming back to try more of the food!

Absolutely amazing food. I had the shrimp scampi app which was so flavorful in the perfect way and it came with really good garlic bread that was great to dip in the scampi sauce. Then the fish sandwich was so flaky and also flavorful. Only tip would be to ask for tartar sauce on it/in the side. Side note, I went on a weekend and they only serve apps, salads, and sandwiches for lunch. After 3pm, they add more entrees to the menu so plan accordingly for what you are looking for. They also have outdoor and indoor seating which is really nice!

We had a wonderful lunch at The Stage Restaurant in Keene! The atmosphere was classy but comfortable — upscale without feeling stuffy. The food was absolutely top-notch. We started with the fried Brussels sprouts, which were so good! The maple aioli that came with them was a match made in heaven — I even asked for extra so I could dip my sweet potato fries in it later. My husband ordered the Nouveau Burger, cooked to perfection, and I had the fish sandwich with those amazing fries. Everything was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The service and overall vibe made it such a great experience. We left full and happy, and we’re already looking forward to going back!

Five stars for the amazing Braised Short Rib! This dish was the definition of comfort food excellence. The meat was unbelievably tender, falling apart with the touch of a fork. The star, though, was the deep, dark, and perfectly reduced braising sauce—it was a complex, savory reduction that coated the meat beautifully. Paired with the creamy and well-seasoned mashed potatoes, this was a truly memorable plate. Highly recommend!

Everything about Stage is wonderful, the staff, the drinks, the food. The bloody mary was amazing, try it with Absolute Pepper! Lime in the coconut was also so good I had to have a second. We all had burgers, delicious! The location is great too, really nice area.

First time here [couldn't get in last time it was packed] and it was a great lunch. Eclectic menu with something for all. The menu is full of their own twists on some classic dishes like Poké Bowl and Gyro.
