Split the sweet potato pancakes. It was pancake with mashed sweet potato. The pancakes were well made fluffy and moist.
And had the grits with the “fried chicken”
Grits were flavorful, the fried chicken was fried oyster mushrooms and paired really well.
Highly recommend this place to vegans and vegetarians alike.”

“Last night we were there for an early Birthday dinner for me! It's been a long time since we've dined at Ralph 'n' Rich's, but I will say that our food was delicious, & the service was superb! Brittany was our server, & she was awesome! I can't recall our busboy's name but he was great with bringing bread to our table, & refilling our water glasses as needed. I had the baby arugula salad special to start, & it was so tasty & the perfect beginning before having an old favorite of mine, linguine with white clam sauce. My hubby really enjoyed the Spiedina Romano which is a kicked up mozzarella appetizer that if he fully polished it off, he wouldn't have ate his Chicken Piccata then tangerine sorbet afterwards! Don't worry, we brought home leftovers to enjoy! Topping off things was a surprise singing of "Happy Birthday" when my tartufo came out! Reservations are strongly recommended especially for dinner, but Ralph 'n' Rich's is a gem that's had staying power in Downtown Bridgeport for many years. Go there & enjoy!”

“I was driving up Park Avenue as I usually do coming from work and I always see the grill master jerk spot van. I decided to stop today. I was interested in jerk chicken because I love jerk chicken. I’m originally from New York so it’s kinda hard to find good food like I’m accustomed to. I would like to say that Dex. is very nice. He has a good spirit for him. He asked me what I like, and I told him jerk chicken. He gave me a sample of jerk, chicken, his sorrow and carrot juice all were phenomenal. The carrot juice is the best carrot juice I’ve ever had in my 41 years of life being that my family is originated from Jamaica. I opted to get jerk chicken and the carrot juice. Everything was delectable and taste real good. Customer service was superb. I will be back. Thank you.”
Deli • $
“Love supporting owner-operated businesses, especially when they’re this good! The service was impeccable and the food was fantastic. I ordered the grilled chicken gyro wrap, and before I even put my car in reverse, half of it was already gone!
I would definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and great service, whether you’re grabbing something on the go or sitting down to enjoy your meal. I’ll definitely be back!”
Juice Bar & Smoothies • $
“I got two juices one I bought and one complimentary. The woman at the front was very kind and helped me pick out some options. She was welcoming and made sure the juices were bagged properly with a napkin so the glass bottle would not break . Both juices were delicious, and the ginger wasn’t overpowering. I could taste more of the fruit, and they were extremely fresh.”

Perfect place to unwind with a pint of delicious beer amongst friends and hear some great music you may not have ever heard before.”
Irish Pub • $$
“The worst pub food I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a lot). The chicken curry did not taste like curry, and there were no vegetables in it - just sauce and chicken that tasted like it was leftover from the day before. I asked for fish and chips to replace it, and that was also terrible. It was burned and tasteless. For some reason, it came with salad dressing instead of tartar sauce. You’re much better off going to The Castle.”

My company LOVED the food. Food was fresh and done in 20 minutes!!”

“Outstanding falafel wrap! Maybe the best I have ever had!! Their fries are perfectly seasoned and sensational. A hidden gem!”
Mexican • $
“My wife and I walk to this place all of the time. I especially like the chicken soft shell tacos. Because the shells are good and sticky (not everyone's preference, I know), and the ingredients are of high enough quality, and so well-prepared, that they don't have to over-douse everything in salty sauces to mask the awfulness, the tacos stay together well. They are also reasonably hearty tacos--not thin, not overpacked. In short, this is one of those places that understands that well-wrought simplicity is the best approach for this kind of cuisine--great for a quick, satisfying meal. The service is efficient and kind, too!”

Sports Bar • $$
“We originally had a reservation across the street, but it turned out that they were actually closed so we ended up at Bank Sports Bar and are we ever glad we did! We were looking for a place to stop to get beers and a bite to eat before attending a concert nearby. When we walked in there were more than 65 in the bar and the vibe was exactly what we needed. Quickly we noticed there was one bartender behind the bar - ut oh. Right? Nope. Britt was truly amazing and this place is lucky to have her. We never went without a drink; she was attentive and kind. Turns out there was one person in the kitchen, too - AJ. Our food came out delicious and hot. All of the respect to these two. We hope to be back soon!”

The grilled chicken was worth Dieing for.”

“I'd never thought I'd leave a review of a McDonald's, but here we are. Ive eaten a lot of fast food at all different places all over the country (just ask my waistline or cardiologist)...so take it from me...this drive thru is by far the quickest, most efficent drive thru you'll ever experience. From the moment I ordered, drove up, paid, got my change, got my McMuffin (with special requests) and had the bag in my hand....1:08, one minute, eight seconds. NASCAR pitstops take longer. Amazing crew.”

“First, to call SOB a hidden gem would be doing it a disservice, per all the five-star reviews! The better term is off the beaten path, but undoubtedly worth a purposeful trip. I am admittedly a bit of a sandwich snob, and Michelle's porchetta special did NOT disappoint. As a matter of fact, she was so genuinely charming and sincere in her description of it, that all three of us ordered the exact same thing, and the full-size grinder at that. This was a BIG sandwich, even by my standards, and the components were all top-notch. Somehow, the meat was still juicy and tender, even sliced thin and griddled on the flat top. The provolone was melted nicely, and the marinated peppers had just enough bite to balance the richness. She gave us a cup of au jus for dipping as well, which was greatly appreciated. Taste and value aside, Michelle may just be the start of the show. Her hospitable kindness and welcoming spirit made the food even better, to the effect that we were already planning our next visit before we even left. SOB is the real deal, thanks again Michelle, BPT is lucky to have you!”

“We were early for our ferry and looking for a bite. My partner grabbed a grandma slice with fresh mozzarella and a vodka martini in a frosty glass. I got a cold antipasto, which wasn’t on the menu but they were very happy to oblige. Service was swift and friendly and the prices were reasonable. I took my salad to eat on the way to Pt. Jeff. Great place. Everything from the bread to the gelato is made in house.”

“stopped by earlier this week while I was working and was in a bit of a rush. I asked what the fastest thing they could make since I didn’t have much time. Even though they already had a lot of orders, they went out of their way to accommodate me and had my food ready in about 14 minutes. I was really impressed and grateful. They even brought my order outside for me, which I really appreciated.
The food was great, and the customer service was even better. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving Mexican food. Great people and excellent service!”

“Last week, while I was in London for work, I stopped by Shah’s Halal Food. I usually avoid fast food or shawarma spots because of my strict diet, but I chose this place for two reasons: they serve halal food, and during a snowstorm it was the closest option available. I’m really glad I did it turned out to be a great experience. I ordered the Chicken Salad Bowl with grilled chicken chunks, cucumbers, lettuce, chickpeas, hummus, and a variety of flavorful sauces. It was perfect for my no-carb diet and everything was fresh, tasty, and very satisfying. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a halal, nutritious, and budget-friendly meal. The staff were also incredibly polite and welcoming.”

“This very friendly and unassuming place seems to be very popular with both locals and tourists alike. The drawing factors are the friendly service and superb quality of their ice cream made by the owners from the best ingredients. There is a cozy space indoors and a couple of tables outside in an alley. We only had their great ice cream but they also specialize in sandwiches..Calypso is part of A H Rise Mall.. \nThe owners have a very friendly and welcoming approach to their patrons.\nI want to come back each time I am in Charlotte Amalie.!”

“One of my friends jumped at the chance, explaining that he grew up down the road from Ayala's, would welcome the chance to check out the 'old neighborhood.' Well, he grew up there close to forty years ago, and things have most certainly changed. After a rather brief visit to Ayala's last Saturday, I felt compelled to write this review.”

“Our experience with The Original Vazzy's (catering and V-Bar services), was nothing short of outstanding and played a huge role in the success of our fundraising event. From the very first phone call to the thoughtful follow-up after the event, the level of customer service was exceptional. Working closely with Kristine and Susie was an absolute pleasure. They were professional, patient, and incredibly accommodating every step of the way. They took the time to truly understand our needs, helped guide us through menu selections that would appeal to all attendees, and were transparent about policies while offering helpful recommendations on quantities. On the day of the event, their entire team brought such positive energy and professionalism. Everything was handled seamlessly, from providing utensils, linens, and full-service support, to managing setup, serving, and cleanup. They were also incredibly flexible, adapting to last-minute requests and changes with ease and a smile. The food quality was amazing and received rave reviews from our guests. Their attention to detail extended even further by providing carry-out containers for leftovers. An extra touch that didn’t go unnoticed! They arrived right on time, communicated clearly in advance, and executed everything flawlessly. Most importantly, they helped create an experience that elevated our entire event for both our team and all attendees. We’re beyond grateful for their support and would highly recommend The Original Vazzy's to anyone looking for top-tier service, delicious food, and a team that truly cares about making your event a success, and for lunch / dinner on your own!”

“Went with my daughter ad we both ordered fish and chips. Order is picked up at counter. Fish and fries were both hot and crispy, with a large piece of cod. It was light and flaky. People at the counter were friendly and helpful. Sat on the dock area under a covering. Very nice experience.”

“Ima start off by saying , don’t expect to come to a place like this and get fast food type service. It takes time to make good quality meals. This place is amazing. Great atmosphere and vibe . Yes it’s small and yes at times there can be a wait . It’s well worth the experience i promise . I tired most of the things on this menu every single meal was delicious. Love it here .”

“We were in the neighborhood and the delicious smell coming from this place caught our attention. We stopped in and had a wonderful experience. For starters we had an empanada made from plantain, it was very good, made better with a sauce they gave us. Next we shared a plate called Picada which was various types of fried meats which was excellent. It contained pork, chicken, beef and a type of sausage. It was served with tostones (fried green plantains). The serving was huge. We loved most of it, except for the beef, personally I like it more rare and it was over done. The restaurant has an extensive menu with breakfast, lunch and dinner options. When you enter don’t be surprise if it looks like a corner store, they do have tables set up to eat in or takeout.”

“Chicken Soulvaki is the best cucumber sauce makes it even better. Every time I call they know my order and name. And it's always service with a smile walking in and walking out. I will try something else I always say. But the Chicken Soulvaki is always on point. So until I get tired of it I will stick with the Chicken Soulvaki with cucumber sauce.”

“Teatos restaurant provided good quality food, efficiently served HOT and on heated plates, family style. It was our choice of a lovely mixed green salad, with freshly grated carrots and olives & tomatoes, a pasta dish - al dente & also steaming hot! with vodka sauce and aromatic fresh grated parmesan cheese. The bread waa fresh & delicous. The chicken francaise was perfect! The roast beef was plentiful. Wine & coffee & a palette cleansing ice cream torte was just enough! We had a warm, relaxibg, family gathering... thank you Paul & Juliana for your assistance to make our day both pleasant, fulfilling with your good quality food and organized staff. You delivered! Our Family & friends thank you!”

“Brewport Brewing Company will most definitely see me again as the pizza was so delicious and the beer very good. I was with maybe 12 others so I managed to see quite a selection of pizzas, and taste some also. Our server Steve could not accommodate us anymore, he was very caring, made you want to come back to Brewport. I even met the owner and his son, they too were very welcoming. The thin crust, even a little dark made for great toppings, will see you again. Thank you for the lovely ambience also!”

“Whoever talks trash about the workers is a trash themselves. These guys are amazing and very fast with orders. Sincerely some of us as customers can be frustrating while these hardworking guys are trying to serve us right. I’d say you should come at night esp the 2 black guys at night. The grilled chicken was worth Dieing for.”

“I was driving up Park Avenue as I usually do coming from work and I always see the grill master jerk spot van. I decided to stop today. I was interested in jerk chicken because I love jerk chicken. I’m originally from New York so it’s kinda hard to find good food like I’m accustomed to. I would like to say that Dex. is very nice. He has a good spirit for him. He asked me what I like, and I told him jerk chicken. He gave me a sample of jerk, chicken, his sorrow and carrot juice all were phenomenal. The carrot juice is the best carrot juice I’ve ever had in my 41 years of life being that my family is originated from Jamaica. I opted to get jerk chicken and the carrot juice. Everything was delectable and taste real good. Customer service was superb. I will be back. Thank you.”

“I still recommend this place even though yesterday I had a bad experience. I placed my order and had to wait more than half an hour... I saw the attendant acting really awkwardly... laughing all the time like she was sort of into "something"... the situation was chaotically embarrassing cos around 8 people were waiting for their orders and she was practically just walking from one side to the other laughing and trying to call attention to herself. I curiously approached the counter and noticed that my order (along with others) were just standing at the counter for a long time and nobody bagged them nor called my number to let me know it was ready... 😳... my chicken was already cold... 😡. That was my only bad experience so far cos all the other times never have I had any problem. The chicken and everything else are really good but sometimes the service sucks.”

“Last week, while I was in London for work, I stopped by Shah’s Halal Food. I usually avoid fast food or shawarma spots because of my strict diet, but I chose this place for two reasons: they serve halal food, and during a snowstorm it was the closest option available. I’m really glad I did it turned out to be a great experience. I ordered the Chicken Salad Bowl with grilled chicken chunks, cucumbers, lettuce, chickpeas, hummus, and a variety of flavorful sauces. It was perfect for my no-carb diet and everything was fresh, tasty, and very satisfying. I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a halal, nutritious, and budget-friendly meal. The staff were also incredibly polite and welcoming.”

“This review is a part of my quest to visit all CT breweries. I had only heard about Foolproof before, but this was my first visit to the brewery.
The brewery is located in an industrial zone. It has a decent parking lot across the street. The brewery occupies its own big building. You're immediately greeted with an awesome artwork depicting a jester. Behind the gates is a patio area with its own limited set of taps. The main brewery is located inside on the 2nd floor (an elevator is available). The indoor space is huge. So huge, in fact, that it hosts a car on display. I've only been to one room, but I'm pretty sure that there is at least one more available for parties. The atmosphere in the space is great. There is an on-site kitchen, so you can order food. I got shrimp tacos, and they were tasty.
The beer selection is great. There were 14 taps during my visit. You can order a flight of 4 beers, which allowed me to try almost every beer for this review. I enjoyed almost all the beers. I appreciate the selection of pilsners of multiple substyles. But my most favorite beers for the day were Pickleodeon (gose) and Swirl Pop (fruited sour). I rarely pick these styles as favorites, but I loved how mouthfeel they were.
All in all, I will definitely recommend this brewery to anyone. You can hang out in a cool space, participate in their events, or just drink some good beers.”

“The food was very good! Sorry, no pictures because once I took the first bite, I just kept going!!
I moved to Trumbull from Harlem 10 years ago and I’m always trying Caribbean restaurants in Bridgeport and New Haven. I’ve tried over a dozen and this was by far the best to me. I only eat seafood, so I loved that they had two fish options and shrimp ready to serve. Most places you have to order stewed fish ahead of time. I had the stewed fish and fried shrimp, and my husband had the oxtail. The stewed fish was the best I’ve had and the cabbage was perfection. The rice had fresh peas, not canned. It could’ve used a little salt for me, since I’m not a gravy on rice person, but some Scotch bonnet pepper sauce fixed that right up. I understand food has to be seasoned for everyone so I would not call this an issue. Everything was gone in less than 20 minutes! The ginger pineapple juice was very good too. Easy parking right in front. This is definitely my new go to spot! Will share photos next time.”

“Was in town and stopped by here for some Caribbean food and it was amazing! They have ital (vegan) options for my plant based people and the owner was very accommodating as well as friendly. My second favorite part of the experience next to the actual food was the ambiance of the place, there was so much intention and loved poured into the layout of Reggae Goose. Very well done. Whenever I’m in town I’ll be stopping by !”
