Puritan & Co. did not disappoint. The food was excellent, the place itself was not overly loud, and the service was exceptional. I will definitely return and recommend this spot to friends.

We went for the Valentine's prix fixe and had a great night. All the courses were delicious and the wine pairings worked really well. Service was great and the timing of the courses was very consistent.
Puritan & Company serves modern American cuisine, with particular emphasis on traditional New England fare, and not without occasional excursions into other ethnic ingredients and styles. Our mainstays are ingredients sourced from farms we know and local. Always with a sense of fun.

Chef Will Gilson's Puritan & Company pays homage both to the previous inhabitant of the building it now occupies, the Puritan Cake Company, and Gilson's roots: the former Garden at the Cellar toque lays claim to being a 13th generation Mayflower descendant. Quirky design elements include an antique gas stove that serves as the hostess stand. Grab a seat at the communal table and try the house-made vermouth in a dirty martini or order a microbrew. A special Peak Organic beer is made exclusively for Puritan with honey from Gilson's family's farm. Grilled oysters, radishes and butter, a charcuterie plate and a smoked bluefish pâté are among small snacks, while heartier appetizers range from grilled sausage to lamb belly and bone marrow gratin. For dinner, the free-range chicken with charred onion sauce or the wood-roasted Muscovy duck may rewrite your definition of comfort food. Finish with the Meyer lemon curd or classic tapioca pudding, rarely seen on today's menus.
