“Absolutely delicious!”

“- Very calming and professional vibe - Answered all the questions I had with ease. - Dottie is very kind and polite I will definitely recommend this shop to everyone.”

“The Spot Café truly lives up to its name it hits the spot every time. You can tell there’s real love and care put into the food, from the presentation to the flavor. The cafe is welcoming, making you feel like a regular from the moment you walk in. It may be a small space, but it delivers big on quality and experience. This place is definitely a hidden gem in East Hartford.”

“Their chicken is really good, crispy, seasoned well, not too greasy, and priced well for this economy.
I never had bad experiences with them.
Fries could be a little better, but still not bad.”

“That buttered hot dog roll 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 oh.my.gawwwddddd! SO good! And it doesn’t break at the bottom like most hot dog buns do. Service was super fast and all the staff was friendly and looked happy and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Great environment! Will go again!”

“My son & I came in for a late lunch & decided on the Bento Box.
I chose the teriyaki chicken which comes with white rice, miso soup, salad, fruit & a spring roll.
The miso was absolutely AMAZING!! Great taste & plenty of tofu.
The chicken was perfect!
Not chewy or dried out at all. Everything was wonderful!
Definitely a great hidden gem in East Hartford!! (On Glastonbury town line, Shoprite/PetSmart plaza.
Also, the staff was very friendly, personable & prompt!
Will definitely be back.”

“I went here to get their chicken Mac sandwich (which was delicious btw) and saw they had the viral fruit pastries, so I got a strawberry one! Tasted like a strawberry shortcake! Crunchy outer shell, soft strawberry mousse, and strawberry jam in the very center.
Staff was very kind even though I walked in at opening!
No music was playing which made me feel a little awkward waiting for my order in dead silence (I was the only one in there) haha felt very five guys esk”

“Hosted our Holiday Party here, amazing atmosphere, food & music!! Holly & Carmine are the best! Check them out ♥️”

“Everyone needs to try the Skillet Burrito ASAP! It’s new on the menu, all I needed to see in the description was SMOTHERED IN QUESO lol it was the most delicious burrito I have ever eaten. I will be ordering it every time I go there now. I hope enough people review it so they keep it on the menu! You should try it, you will not be disappointed!”

“Absolutely delicious! I had lunch there with a friend today and the food was great (honestly, some of the best fries I've ever had)! Service was friendly, fast and just generally really great. I'll definitely be back!”

“This is a wonderful little family owned place. The service is outstanding. Liz and her family take great pride in taking care of people. The food is delicious and reasonably priced. Great spot for a dinner out or take out. Definitely recommend!”

“Had a nice time here with some great friends; they had never had Square Peg before, so they were in for a treat (I usually frequent the location in Glastonbury). We loved the laid back vibe of the place, and enjoyed the view of the golf course while we all conversed. The pizza was delicious as always, and a new life hack I had just discovered was adding a side of Hot Honey to the order! We look to be back soon!”

“This was my second visit to The Dutch Pot Restaurant in Miami Gardens Fort Lauderdale, and it won’t be my last! The true gem of this place is the staff. From the moment I walked in, I noticed the genuine, friendly interaction between the staff and customers – no impatience or condescension, just warm and welcoming service. It’s rare to find such a personable atmosphere! The food was, as always, incredible. I had the curried goat, which was perfectly spiced and tender, and the oxtail was rich and flavorful. Both dishes were spot-on! To top it off, we were given a tour of the newly opened, exclusive upstairs dining area (pictures to come!), which looks fantastic. Kudos to the owners for continuously elevating the dining experience here. Overall, this is a fantastic business that deserves to be replicated – amazing food, a welcoming team, and a beautifully designed space. Highly recommend The Dutch Pot to anyone looking for a great meal and even better service!”

“Hello All. I was on a mission. My wife had a taste for a pound cake, but not just any pound cake. She wanted a pound cake that tasted like her mom used to make. Well, it took some time to scan the internet and read some of the comments at other bakeries and I found myself very disappointed. As I was about to give up, I found Perfect Poundcakes. I read the comments from their customers and I thought I would give them a try. I placed my order online. When I picked up my poundcake I was greeted by a friendly staff that took extreme pride in their product. When I arrived home, my wife instantly recognized the aroma that brought her back to some wonderful memories of her mom. Going forward Perfect Poundcakes will be a part of our family events. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!”

“Will definitely use for any get togethers when I need to bring something - I generally get from Big Y (at a very decent price!). But am SOOO interested in some of the other varieties including another customer who suggested Strawberry Creme Pie and now I want one too! Saw a Boston Creme in the photos - I'm in pie heaven. LOVE the pies I've had already! (tried Lemon Meringue, Peanut Butter and I think the first I had was a chocolate creme?)”

“I’ve loved C&E pizza since I was a kid in the 90s and living in EH.

I’ve since moved out of state a decade ago, but anytime I visit, I order takeout! Last time did not disappoint, just as good as it’s always been.

Can’t wait for my next visit.

Legends, other states just don’t have the same quality of pizza.”

“Man, the spicy fish sandwich here is one of my favorite sandwiches in the state. I can’t quite put my finger on exactly what that sauce is but it is perfect. Not too spicy, but just enough flavor. Combine that with a perfectly crispy piece of fish, and you really got something special. Staff is friendly, fast service. Love coming here.”

“Drove an hour just to visit this place & the drive was worth it! I had the spinach stew with tomato stew & meat & let me tell you chef’s kiss*** it was so bomb I took one to go & on that second plate I tried the ockra stew & it was busssssin 10/10 for me ?”

“Called in 15 pupusas for pick up, we were 15 mins away they said it would be 30. Ended up getting them after 45 mins. The pupusas were good though, the wait was a bit much.”

“Halal food is available for takeout and delivery also via door dash; Uber eats, Grubhub and Postmates. Inside, the Gas station closes at 10 PM and provides breakfast and all other menus the whole day. Great quality of food and relatively inexpensive compared to others”

“Krispy Krunchy Chicken is the best spot in the neighborhood for great food, excellent service, and ultimate convenience! Their fried chicken is always crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection, and the honey biscuits are simply delicious. If you’re a coffee lover, their fresh, rich coffee is the best way to start your day.

Beyond the amazing food, this store is a one-stop shop with a great selection of convenience products and smoke products, making it easy to find everything you need in one place. The service here is always top-notch—friendly, fast, and welcoming.

Whether you’re stopping by for a quick meal, a fresh cup of coffee, or everyday essentials, this is the best store in the neighborhood!”

“Absolutely worth the trip because I live in east hartford.”

“Highly recommend this food truck!!! The food was incredibly good and the portions are so big! I got their Quesadilla with Carne Asada, and the meat was so juicy and they’re generous with how much they give you, and I got their Agua de Jamaica, which was very refreshing and not too sweet :) will be coming back to try more of their food!!”

“Great portions, flavors, and value. Garlic parm wings were crispy and delicious. New ownership.”

“It's your typical Popeyes but what makes it different is that the food was hot and fresh. Hopefully it stays that way and not just because they're just opening.”

“My brother and I ordered general tso's chicken, the chicken itself was wonderful but the sauce didn't really stick to the chicken and was kinda light on flavor. However my Mom had Sweet & Sour Chicken with pork fried rice and my sister had a Pu Pu platter both of which were amazing.”

“Nice chillin spot for friends and family. Late night 🍮”

“The lasagna was delicious. Service was good, the 1 male employee was super kind the others were busy. Not good atmosphere to eat in is dark, dusty and hot. The place looks like an abandoned house”

“I recently discovered this African restaurant. The grilled chicken is really delicious and that together with their fried yam is my favorite. Their portions are good and the menu is typically Ghanaian. They are easy to locate, have ample parking and pricing is moderate.”

“Ordered online. Pizza was absolutely amazing!! Bacon was crisp and crunchy and cheese perfectly melted. And gentleman who made our pizza was kind enough to notice we ordered the wrong type of sauce and gave me the correct one for us. Such a small thing but made a huge difference! Thank you for this!!”
