All winter long in Connecticut we await the reopening of our favorite seasonal restaurants. Some are quaint little eateries on the waterfront while others are simple roadside stands that offer a quick bite to eat. Before summer slips away, you’ll want to make a special trip to one award-winning food stand where the cuisine is an unexpected delight.

Since 1931, Heibeck's Stand has been dishing out comfort food to diners traveling along Route 7 in Wilton. Over the decades, the roadside eatery has changed and it now offers elevated classics that are absolutely drool-worthy.

The outdoor patio has a summery vibe where you can dine in the open air. You can even BYOB and dine under the glow of string lights when the sun goes down.
