“The seafood is wonderful, fresh and tasty. The huge full belly fried clams, scallops and oysters were fried to perfection. The Rhode Island clam chowder is the real deal full of classic flavor. Cindy, the manager was very friendly and gave good suggestions on the take out order. I would love to go back and try other seafood specials.“
“We stopped here for some quick sushi due to its proximity to the Truck Bar. It was a good find! A little hole in the wall place in a large plaza. The service was excellent, very attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere was a little underwhelming, as it seemed to keep busy with mostly takeout orders as opposed to dine in. The food itself was good, not the greatest sushi ever, but it hit the spot for a sushi craving!“
“I wanted to visit my ex coworker Zach @ J Gilberts and maybe get a Burger cuz that's what I had my only time there and its one of the best burgers I've ever had. Plus I didnt want to go too crazy. But when I got there Zach told me about the 16Oz Dry Aged Kansas City Strip Steak Special that they had. I decided to go all out cuz I wantedto see if their steaks measured up to their reputation. Zach recommended a Pinot Noir from Washington that was a perfect pairing for the steak. I gotta say the green beans that I had with a jam and crumbled pecans were insanely good with the garlic mashed potatoes. AND the steak had a nice charred exterior with a perfect juicy medium rare interior. I decided to treat myself and if you are ever thinking of doing the same go to J Gilberts and ask for Zach....you won't be disappointed....you will have one of your best restaurant experiences of your life!“
“My favorite Thai restaurant currently in the greater Hartford area. The food reminds me of my mom's cooking. I make the trip from Hartford To New Britain whenever I want a piece of home. This small quaint restaurant packs a punch and doesn't hold back on flavor. While some places water down the flavor to cater to a broader audience Mai (the owner) chefs it up as if she is in her home kitchen cooking for family. You taste the loving in her cooking. There is limited seating but when you get the chance order a few dishes with friends or family and share the meal Thai style. You can always order in advance and pick up or utilize a delivery service. You won't be disappointed. Ask for Mai (pronounced May) and tell her Ty sent you. She will make sure you're taken care of.“
“Solid food and great atmosphere. The fish really was cooked beautifully and the staff was top notch. Yummy fish and chips.Today we had a couple of apps and they were quite tasty. Calamari was really solid and my buddy got the Buffalo shrimp. They had a special swordfish entree with Lobster risotto and it was really quite tasty. Solid work per usual.Delicious clam soup and salmon dish. The spetzel (sp) was fun and unexpected. Also decent pours for your gin on the rocks. Bombay would be proud. A little heavier handed would be appreciated but better than many places. The burger looked great and the chicken parm was large and tasty. Some of my buddies shared some bites at today's group lunch“
“I've been to other Capital Grille locations; decided to try this one. Visited on a Saturday evening. Ordered wedge salad and clam chowder as an appetizer. Both were good and consistent with food I've ordered at other locations. Dinner was tenderloin with lobster and seared tuna. Both were cooked well. Potatoes au gratin were quite good. Service I felt was average; dessert took quite a long time to come out unfortunately. Atmosphere is consistent among locations generally and this one was enjoyable and no different. Overall, this location was good and I would return.“
“If you love fresh seafood dishes prepared well and a great bloody mary, this is the place. I like a lot of horseradish in my bloody marys and that is what you will find here. They know how to treat gueats, they willingly split our salad and our entree.“
“I had been wanting to try Coracora for years and finally had the chance. The empanadas were the best I've ever had - delicious fillings, but a dough like the most amazing light pie crust. Creative, authentic menu, beautiful decor, reasonable prices, excellent service -- all came together for an exceptional night out.“
“Cromwell's little best kept secret! Honestly, I have tried about 4 Chinese restaurants in the area, and before that, have always loved Chinese food, making it a weekly choice to enjoy, and last night, was pushed away from my main Chinese restaurant because they had a 45 minute wait, and then found Ming Garden, and all I can say is... that is some GREAT Chinese food!5 STARS!!!!“
“First time here at this location 2nd time eating at Hook & Reel. I will definitely come back here. The manager was amazing and very attentive to everyone. my waitress was great. We chose the all you can eat. There were lots to choose from. The food was fresh and tasty. I would recommend this location. The atmosphere was nice and chill. The place was clean . 5 stars from us.“
“Had the privilege of eating here today. As a person who doesn’t eat out often, and loves to cook I was very impressed by this place! We went for lunch and I had the double burger with grilled veggies and my mom had the lamb gyro. They catered to my dietary needs and were very friendly. My mom said it was the best gyro she has ever had, and my burgers were so delish and cooked perfectly. I can’t wait to try their oxtail cabbage soup. I can’t recommend this place enough and hope to come back when I’m in the area.“
“DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THIS PLACE! If you’re thinking about going here, don’t think, just go! The food was absolutely delicious. The lobster cake special and salmon special were amazing. The shrimp scampi had the most juicy and flavorful shrimp I’ve ever had. The bread and clam chowder were great. We got a massive salad with our entree and they sent us home with a fruit basket!! Our server was friendly and the service was at a great pace. The atmosphere had very cozy vibes. This will be our go-to seafood spot and could be yours too!“
“How is it possible? This place can serve me a wonderful chicken piccata dinner with salad and bread for $21 and a glass of house wine for six dollars? Excellent food service and atmosphere. Plus a live rendition of love is in the air. Wonderful service food and prices make this place a grand slam. Support this business.“
“Fabulous place! Unbelievable food and crafter drinks, I have tried many of them from the cocktails list and they all are just delicious! Wonderful atmosphere, smooth music and the owners never miss the opportunity to stop buy your table and say friendly hello. Now the food, just exceptional (!) always fresh and creative, new items added to the menu. Love the tapas, small dishes that allow to try the culinary talents of the chef. Donnie will great you his wonderful friendly way and Gianna will do her magic to make you feel well taken care of. Thank you for wonderful experience every time we visit.“
“Four friends enjoyed a great dining experience at Portobello West Hartford. The manager and staff were very welcoming, and we found the restaurant comfortable and quiet enough for conversation. Drinks, salads and entrees were all good. Generous portions. Recommend the Veal Portobello, clams, lasagna -- delicious and attractively presented.“
“We were travelling back home (a couple of hours) and drove about an hour out of our way to pass by and pick up the Birkin Bag, we drove another 2 hours home and enjoyed the meal very much. I would suggest anyone passing by, even if it's out of your way to make the stop, very nice place and great food! Wish you guys were closer to Jersey, maybe on our next trip eastwards.“
“Super-clean diner with easy on-off access to the major highways in Meriden. Got a special omelette with ham & tomato mixed into the fresh eggs, mozzarella inside. Delicious! Plentiful home fries fresh off the griddle slightly browned. Toast perfect and coffee really good. Clean bathroom. Very reasonable prices. Check them out you'll be very happy you did!“
“We came to celebrate our son becoming a state trooper. What a wonderful dinner we had. First and foremost our dinner service and server was wonderful. (Wish I remembered his name) first time and we will be back. Love everything about the place. ❤️❤️❤️thank you so.“
“Lobster tacos were a fun twist on the lobster roll. They were amazing. We also had the lobster nachos. This place isn't shy about giving you a nice portion of lobster. You'll have to forgive the missing taco as I shoved it in my face before thinking to take a “
“Service was amazing, beyond polite, the presentation of the food was one of the nicest I’ve ever seen in my life. The 24k tomahawk steak was to die for, all 3 sides tasted amazing, they also went off menu to accommodate me for a side. 10/10 everything.“
“Nice atmosphere not like others which can be quite loud. The owner is the host and waiter and was so helpful. For the 2 of us, we had the hot pot combo plus 1 added hot pot and it was enough. They tend to be light on the protein servings but you can add more. It was less than $70 for dinner for 2 plus 1 additional side, 1 alcoholic beverage each and an appetizer. Very affordable. Will definitely return.Dietary restrictions: Highly customizable for all restrictions.“
“Live in the area and have driven by the restaurant hundreds of times. Tonight my wife and I decided we would try dinner there.To our surprise the food was absolutely fantastic. My wife had stuffed sole and I had stuffed shrimp. Also if you like soup try the chicken orzo. Homemade and delicious.Restaurant very clean and inviting.Service was great too.A hidden gem in Southington.Recommend this restaurant,Cannot wait to go again and try other items on their menu,“
“My first visit to this restaurant was a delightful surprise orchestrated by my husband for my birthday. We were seated upstairs, but upon exploring downstairs to the tavern area, we immediately decided that our next visit would definitely be spent there. Recently, I organized a girls' night out and made a reservation for the tavern, and it exceeded all expectations.The evening kicked off with a perfectly crafted dirty martini that set the tone for what was to come. The wine selection by the glass offered an array of choices, which was greatly appreciated. Our meal selections were varied yet equally impressive: I opted for the salmon with risotto, Rachel savored their chicken dish, Danielle indulged in the burger, while Dev enjoyed the flatbread. Our appetizer of Brussels sprouts was nothing short of exquisite.Throughout the evening, our waiter provided impeccable service, always anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. I couldn't help but express to him that if the restaurant were closer than 25 minutes away, it would undoubtedly become our regular haunt. He was consistently attentive, ensuring our glasses were never empty and always being a few steps ahead of us.Overall, our experience at this restaurant, particularly in the tavern, was nothing short of spectacular. From the drinks to the cuisine to the exceptional service, it left a lasting impression, making it a place we'll eagerly return to whenever the opportunity arises.“
“I cannot say enough good things about this food truck and the wonderful people that run it! Owners are sweet, kind and caring. I had the lobster roll and clam strip roll. My boyfriend had the spicy fries and fried pickles (he’s vegan). The lobster roll was out of this world! So delicious, warm and buttery! I was amazed at how much lobster meat they included! Clam strip roll was pretty delicious and the sides my boyfriend ordered were so yummy! Cannot wait to try the lobster grilled cheese next time. Thank you Lobster Tales for a wonderful experience! Do yourself a favor and try them out! You won’t regret it!UPDATE: I tried the Lobster Grilled Cheese and wow! Wow, wow, wow! What a blessing for my taste buds! They are geniuses! Years and plenty of trips later, I stand true to my word! The food is incredible, the staff is kind and it’s an experience you won’t forget!! You’re probably thinking, it’s just a food truck, it’s not a big deal. It IS a big deal! Not only are you blessed with delicious lobster rolls that are overflowing with lobster meat along with delicious sides and yummy soda, you are also met with the kindest owners and staff who treat you like family and like one of their own! I even had a chance to talk to the owner because she decided to take time out of her day to approach me and thank me for the kind words that I had mentioned as I grabbed my food. How often do you get that?? I am and will forever be a Lobster Tales food truck fan and have been telling everyone I know about them! They truly are too good to be true! I’m just so grateful to have experienced their kindness and enjoyed their ridiculously delicious food! They are worth the drive! Please try them out! ❤️ ❤️Btw, I have driven across state lines and have taken long trips JUST to enjoy their food. They are THAT good! You won’t regret it! Dietary restrictions: When we first tried them out, my boyfriend was vegan and they were super accommodating all while serving the most delicious and fresh food for him! He was beyond pleased! They are amazing!“
“Enjoyed the fried eggplant appetizer, something different and never had it before. My swordfish lunch was okay. I was asked how I wanted it cooked and it was the first, so obviously I wanted it cooked well and asked for it to be well-done which was a big mistake. It was way overcooked and dry. But the lemon parsley sauce saved it. BF enjoyed his burger. Place was a little busy. But service was attentive. I'd be back and try something else when in the area.“
“Excellent and clean since they have the most recent owner. Whole belly clams and scallops are my favorite but can't beat the scallops so huge & perfectly cooked. Clams tend to be small to medium size anywhere...still delicious. Dean & I enjoy it very much including the friendly owner and staff.“
“I have now had 2 post funeral luncheons and 2 volunteer appreciation dinners at Casa Mia and all have been outstanding. The staff and food have been amazing Everyone is friendly and helpful and very accommodating.I will always consider them first for any event that I have.“
“Brazilian/Portuguese food and sounds and tvs and music give it a cool ethnic vibe. Great place to hangout and enjoy yummy tasty food. Whether eating, playing pool, watching "the game", chatting, or chilling it offers something for everyone. Great Owner!!...feel free to strike up a conversation. THE BEST expresso in the state...just try it!...beats Dunkin or Starbucks Expresso 10 out of 10 times. Highly recommend.“
“Hands down the best Mexican food I have had in CT. My husband and I ordered the elote( off the Cobb) and the steak burrito. Everything was was seasoned to perfection and tasted made to order. Bonus: the customer service was superb. Can’t wait to visit again!“
“Ok. Let's Do It. My friend and I went out to lunch. This is not only a restaurant but a seafood market as well. I knew the food wasn't going to disappoint because fresh seafood is on deck. It wasn't busy. The staff was friendly and attentive. Orsi was our waitress, and she was great knowledgeable, and what she didn't know she found out for us. I had the seafood sampler and an order of fried clams to go my friend order the fried clams dinner.The food was cooked to perfection. The calamari was cooked just the way I like it. The clams casino were well seasoned, and the oysters were great, too. If you're in Plantsville, you should definitely stop in. You get your money's worth.“
“We ordered tostones (flattened fried green plaintains) as appetizers. Then we had shrimp fried rice (a generous portion) and fried chicken with white rice and side salad... they were amazing! We definitely recommend this spot, especially if you have time before attending an event at The Bushnell. It is just a quick walk down the street.“
“The good is great!! Is my go to spot been coming here since I was a little girl. Hands down best Puerto Rican restaurant!! The taste, service, atmosphere EVERYTHING is great.Parking: Street parking all around. Is free no need to pay.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy for anyone to come in. No stairs“
“Have visited this restaurant under the new ownership twice. Once for takeout and tonight to dine in. Both experiences were wonderful and most importantly, the food was delicious. For take out we got the chicken parm and for dine in I had the chicken piccata. The staff is very friendly as well. Highly recommended!“
“I only recently learned that this tapas bar existed in Middletown’s Main Street Market, and I’m so glad that I visited! They had a huge menu with choices to fit anyone’s preferences. Highlights for us were the paella, croquettes, and even the Brussels salad because it had such a great truffle flavor! Their drinks were fantastic - we’re still talking about the Barbie one we had in a unique glass! Definitely save room for the delicious chocolate strawberry cake for dessert. Loved the ambiance, and our server was professional and attentive!“
“my husband and i tried for the first time today and everything was delicious. the staff was super friendly and amazing. we had fish and chips with lobster bisque soup and the best coleslaw I've ever had!!!! will definitely be back for more!“
“La comida excelente todo con un sabor único. Lo único que me quejo es que pedi una bolsa para llevarme lo que no me comí y la mesera me dice que se le acabaron. Sin embargo le compré otra orden para llevar y si tenía bolsa. Cosas pequeñas que dañan la reputación de un buen negocio. El servicio al cliente es más importante que la calidad de la comida.“
“Not a lot of atmosphere here, but a solid place to stop for a burger or hot dog and fries. (As well as other fried menu items.) A little disappointed not to be able to get a milkshake on an unseasonably warm March day, but staff was quick to refund the cost and comped us our sodas. Burgers were tasty with fresh toppings and the curly fries were hot & crispy. Would recommend and go again. (Shakes were available again before we left, but as we'd already finished our meals, we passed. Nice to offer though.)“
“Love this place , been coming here over 10 years and I have never had a bad meal. The staff always make you feel welcome and really go the extra mile. My favorite is the steak in the hot stone that you cook yourself. I come here 3-4 times every month and bring my kids also who love it here. Highly recommend and very good value and quality for your money!Kid-friendliness: Great staff“
“We went not knowing soft opening. Food and staff was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend.Dietary restrictions: It was my daughters 18th birthday. There are no GF items on dessert menu which she was fine with.. but they took the time to create a dessert for her birthday and sing. I cannot say enough“
“Best Chinese food I have had in Connecticut! The egg roll was crispy with a good amount of pork. Pork fried rice was excellent! Great boneless spareribs! Wish they gave a bit more duck sauce. Will definitely be back! If you are looking for Boston area style Cantonese Chinese food try this place out!“
“My wife and went here last night, but we did not want pizza, so we looked over the dinner menu and there were many options. Right off the bat, we knew that we wanted Eggplant Fries, that was easy. Then we got to dinner. I ended up with Shrimp Fra Diavlo over Linguine and she had a Shrimp dish with Spinach instead of Linguine. My dish was incredible! My wife told me that I used the word "Incredible" about 6 times. Everything was perfect. She equally loved here dish as well. We will be back!“
“Amazing! We hired Saints to cater our jack & jill for 200 people! Right off the bat the communication with Ashley the manager was always easy & prompt! The day of the event the workers killed it! They were very efficient making sure the food never ran out & the buffet line went smooth! We got so many compliments on how delicious the food was from Saints! At the end of the night the owner showed up to our jack & jill & personally found me to make sure I was satisfied which was very appreciated! 10/10 would recommend for anyone’s catering needs!“
“Family style bar and restaurant. I've had a thick juicy cheeseburger and the fish and chips. Both dishes were nice large portions of flavorful and fresh tasting and well seasoned food. The place is friendly and well appointed. Prices are reasonable and service is great. The patrons are having fun socializing with each other. There are even families, but no young children. They are a mix of young and old. People are dressed in casual work clothes.“
