“My absolute favorite place“

“We hosted my daughter‘s bridal shower at J Law and it was everything we hoped for. Clara, Megan, and the entire team were attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. The private event space was ideal, spacious, welcoming, and flexible enough for us to personalize with our own decor. The food was delicious. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere made everyone feel at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for another celebration. Thank you, Clara and the J Law team for helping us create such a memorable day!“

“Such a groovy little spot tucked away in a commercial building. I didn’t even know it was there! It has a fun, exclusive feel that’s pretty unique for Danbury. I had the duck tacos, which were delicious, and the cocktail menu was creative and fun. Definitely a cool hidden gem.💎“

“Whatever the occasion is square one is the place to go. The service, the food, the drinks and the staff will make your day/night. 100% would recommend for any occasion. Kaylynn and Thalita made our night!! They made sure our cups were always full and the food was exceptional.“

“The ratings here speak for themself. We were passing through Danbury and came across the Craft Kitchen+Bar, wow we had a great late afternoon dinner outside on their small parking side patio. The food was absolutely fantastic.

The Crispy Chicken Rice Bowl and the Farro Bowl were both outrageously good and filled with flavor. We got the Burrata salad for a shared app and that was fantastic as well. Even the ice tea was great! There are so many great looking items on the menu I would be back next time we are in the area.

Hats off to the kitchen!“

“Best place everrr!!! Got the best food and the best people 🙏🏼“

“Have been coming to this exact chilis location for years now. I own a business in Danbury and I tell all my customers and friends whenever there is a sporting event going on let’s go to chilis to watch. The manager Brett is always so welcoming and makes my party and I feel like family everytime. I will be a returning customer for as long as I live in Connecticut!“

“I grew up as a CT local and have been coming to T.K.’s for over 20 years… best spot on the planet for wings!!! After my recent move to New Hampshire, my fiancé is just as dedicated as I am to the amazing food, atmosphere and staff and we took a trip down on our motorcycle to enjoy yet another fantastic lunch. Well worth the 3 1/2 hour drive. THANK YOU T.K.’s!!!!“

“muy buen servicio se los recomiendo“

“We thoroughly enjoy the Mill Plain Diner. The staff are always friendly, courteous and professional. The food is served hot and is always delicious, while it is reasonably priced. We have any of number of diners we could go to for our weekly weekend breakfasts, but Mill Plain Diner is the one we choose.“

“Good service Delicious food“

“A very welcoming restaurant.
The service of the waitresses is excellent, very good attitude and very attentive when taking orders and bringing the plates of food. For my part I DIDN'T see anything bad. Everything correct!
I would repeat again“

“While the food we ordered tasted great ; it was served lukewarm. If I was home I would have microwaved it. Waitress and atmosphere great. Told the Waitress about the temperature and she apologized, stated she informed the cook . Manager did not visit us. Experience was ok ✅.“

“Usually the food is good as any place the service is only as good as the server. The day we went the waitress needed more training in the past we had a very good time this time she didn't come back to the table and take care of us and all really“

“If you’re looking for a hassle-free meal in the middle of the afternoon, IHOP is an absolute hidden gem. I stopped by at 2:00 PM on a Wednesday and was genuinely shocked to find the entire restaurant completely empty. Not a single wait, no background noise, and total peace while dining—a rare treat for a place usually known for weekend morning rush hour chaos.
Despite the zero-crowd atmosphere, the kitchen didn't miss a beat. The service was insanely fast, with the staff being attentive, friendly, and quick to get everything out to the table. Most importantly, the food tasted completely fresh and made-to-order. The pancakes were hot, fluffy, and golden, and the rest of the meal was just as spot-on. It certainly didn't feel like food that had been sitting around under heat lamps waiting for a late-lunch guest; everything was cooked with care.
It’s honestly a mystery why a place offering this level of speed, quality, and quiet comfort isn't packed during the mid-afternoon lull. If you are anywhere in the area and want a quick, delicious, and stress-free bite without fighting for a table or waiting in line, do yourself a favor and drop in. I highly encourage everyone nearby to come out, support the team, and enjoy a fresh meal in total peace!“

“Just got way back for dinner and it was delicious. The cheesesteak was amazing.“

“Wings are hard to beat especially at a place that specializes. They have menu options that aren't wings so if you're not in the mood, you can still eat here! Lots of TV screens so you can watch the game with your family and friends“
