BEDFORD – Bedford Village Inn and Restaurant owners Jack, Andrea and Jon Carnevale were recently awarded Wine Spectator’s 2004 Best of Award of Excellence.
This is a distinction that only 608 restaurants out of 3,487 entries from around the world receive.
Although The Bedford Village Inn and Restaurant has received Wine Spectator’s Award of Excellence for 13 consecutive years, this 2004 Best of Award is presented only to those restaurants that “exceed the requirements of the Award of Excellence.”
The Bedford Village Inn and Restaurant also recently received a Gold Plate review from TV Diner with Billy Costa on the New England Cable News station. The station has been reviewing restaurants for more than a decade and its Gold Plate award notifies viewers that they can expect an overall “excellent” dining experience at an establishment that receives it.
