If I had to rate from 0 - 10, I’d give it a 10 without any hesitation. @jlawrencect just recently opened so their space is brand new and beautifully decorated!

“The decor is so unique I walked around in awe both before and after dinner. The food was delicious but the history in the place even more impressive. Yes, I had my fortune told by the most lovely lady, and marvel at the “labor of love” restaurant the town of Danbury holds. The owner is a one of a kind guy who gave us a tour of the place with explanations of his travels, his acquisitions, and the story of the restaurant’s name. I give it 10 out of 10!“

“Craft- a Unique Hidden Gem.As someone, who has frequented restaurants for 40 years, Craft is without a doubt the most consistent, and enjoyable place that I have had the pleasure to patronize.Craft offers amazing cocktails, wines, craft beer, along w/domestic, and imported beer, great food, and professional service.Make no mistake this is a well-run establishment, led by their stoic, and great-guy owner Jasson, who though usually stationed in the kitchen can often be found bartending, serving, greeting customers, and actively training new staff.Most times you are greeted by their exceptional Maitre D’ Raymundo, or master bartenders- the ruggedly handsome Peterson, future interior designer to the stars Sam, or California dream-girl Amber.The professional waitstaff is comprised of the elegant Lee, lovely Colleen, the beautiful & mysterious Nicki, future electrical contracting mogul Anthony, the always affable Justin, Terminator-like server Jorge, and captivating hostess Victoria.The “back of the house” is anchored by former “soccer star” Chef William, Christopher- “Master of the art of the fry,” the three amigos, and suds-busting engineer Selby round out the rest of a remarkable staff, who make Craft a most sought after destination.“

“Sonny’s is an excellent choice for a simple, honest breakfast filling the gap for New Fairfielders after the Luncheonette closed.Sonny’s is open during the morning until 2 pm allowing plenty of time to stop in for a breakfast or lunch.We each had an omelette- like another reviewer said - which was stuffed full of your choice of ingredients. I had their Geno’s omelet which was filled with bacon, onions, peppers and cheddar cheese. Neatly folded it made a pretty presentation unlike other diners or cafes whose omelets are like a placemat folded in half.My husband had the special - their Mexican omelet which had a festive array of cheese, salsa, veggies and more.But the highlight of the breakfast for us was their grits. I’m not fond of home fries - too big and chunky for me, so their grits were a great substitute.They are heavenly - they were creamy with the grits apparent, thick with a pat of butter. We add some salt and pepper and enjoyed.Why am I focusing a review on a simple side dish? My husband is from the deep South where grits are the mainstay side dish to every breakfast. The grits served here were just like the best grits he had from down south. Most places up here serve thin, runny grits that are too gritty. Properly done takes cooking them slow and long so the grits break down somewhat and develops that rich creamy flavor.So unexpected to find a southern dish done so well. All their other dishes are just as delicious as the ones we had.Sonny’s has a homey atmosphere where Sonny himself steps out of the kitchen and checks in with the customers.Service was quick and attentive. My coffee cup was refilled 3 times without me asking. Condiments were also offered without asking.Sonny’s is touch of a blast from the past with good simple breakfasts (and lunch) with great service and a smile.“

“I usually order out as I did this evening. I ordered my usual when o order there, NYSteak sandwich with fries. I ordered rare and it was cooked perfect. Roll was fresh. The only disappointment was the small cut. Not sure if they went down in size or it was a one time thing. I was surprised at the shape and the size. Otherwise excellent.“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Pippa Sports Café, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Danbury, Connecticut. As a sports enthusiast, this café immediately caught my attention with its vibrant atmosphere and passion for all things sports-related.First and foremost, the staff at Pippa Sports Café deserves applause. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu and sports events. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and made to feel right at home. They go above and beyond to ensure their customers have an enjoyable experience.The café itself showcases a diverse range of sports memorabilia adorning the walls, creating an ambiance that caters perfectly to sports fans. With numerous flat-screen TVs strategically placed throughout the venue, every seat is a great spot to catch the game, no matter where you are seated. It's the perfect place to share a meal, grab a drink, and cheer for your favorite team with friends.Speaking of food, Pippa Sports Café offers a solid menu of classic sports bar fare. Their juicy burgers, loaded nachos, and wings truly hit the spot, satisfying any craving you might have during a game. The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are reasonable considering the quality and taste.Furthermore, the drink selection at Pippa Sports Café is extensive, with an impressive array of craft beers, cocktails, and non-alcoholic beverages to choose from. I particularly enjoyed their selection of local and regional craft beers, which added an extra touch to my overall experience.My only small qualm with Pippa Sports Café is that it can get quite busy during peak hours, which might result in slightly slower service. However, the staff does its best to accommodate all customers promptly, so just a little patience might be required during those times.To sum it up, Pippa Sports Café is a fantastic spot for sports lovers seeking a great atmosphere, delicious food, and a vibrant social scene. The staff's dedication, coupled with the fantastic ambiance and scrumptious menu, make it an excellent choice for individuals or groups seeking an enjoyable evening surrounded by sports enthusiasm.Whether you're a local looking for a new favorite sports hangout or a visitor passing through Danbury, I highly recommend paying a visit to Pippa Sports Café. It's a worthwhile spot to immerse yourself in the game, share in the excitement, and savor some tasty food and refreshing drinks.“

“For my daughter’s birthday, she requested the Cheesecake Factory. My wife is a rewards member, so we were able to make a reservation. The table was ready when we got there. Plenty of parking outside. It is connected to the mall but not in the mall. Very clean inside and a very friendly staff. One of the first things you see is a giant refrigerator of cheesecakes on the right. It automatically puts you in a good mood. Kaitlyn was our waitress and did a great job. She consistently checked on us and even sang happy birthday to my daughter when she brought out her piece of cheesecake.The food is amazing. There are so many choices of appetizers, small bites, entrées, desserts, and duh cheesecake. The nachos were some of the best that I have had. Loaded with everything you can think of and layered properly. Every chip had something on it. I also enjoyed the crab bites. Pretty much crabcakes fried into a ball. The pretzel bites were also very good. The fondue cheese really put it over the top. The leftover cheese was used as a vehicle for the french fries. I have the mac & cheese, burger. Delicious and filling. I almost couldn’t finish, almost. I sampled a small piece of the peanut butter fudge cheesecake. Very creamy and delicious. Overall very satisfied. My only issue was the price. I know the food is delicious, but to me it is a little expensive. I will definitely return, probably during their weekday specials.“

He provided exemplary service from start to finish, going above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic meal.Carson recommended the perfect wine pairing for our meal - the Oberon, which complemented our rack of lamb entree beautifully. He also expertly paired the wine with the 20 ounce porterhouse steak, further enhancing our dining experience.Not only was the food incredible, but the level of service we received from Carson truly elevated our evening. I will definitely be returning to Chuck's Steakhouse and requesting Carson as my server. 5 stars all around!“
