“Literally just left after having the best lunch! My fiancé and I are new to CT and we’ve been desperately trying to find a cool spot with great food. We got the miso and lime mussels and poutine with our beers and it was SO GOOD! Simple but delicious. The portions were huge. The service was great and the beer was even better! So happy to finally find a great restaurant close to home!“

“We recently had the pleasure of getting a bite to eat at the Country Corner and it became more than just lunch. I was up in Bethany before COVID and had a wonderful meal then but upon walking in this time I was reminded that when you come here you will be welcomed like family. Between Cassie, Sandy and Moe they run a wonderful place. The place is beautiful and the food really does stand out. I had a Chef Salad which I was able to eat all of it. It was very big and very fresh. I truly enjoyed it. My wife ordered a Pistachio cake for dessert. ( I don't care for Pistachio) Well I ate half of hers. It was AMAZING! I was told it was made by Mom. She is so incredibly talented! You really could taste the love. I was told that Sam (dad) passed away a few years ago. You can clearly see and feel that his spirit lives on through their love and pride for this place. I look forward to returning and seeing especially what Mom has baked. ❤️??“

The brussels sprouts were cut and fried in a unique way I had never seen before but it was quite delicious. The pizza was also quite good although a little too much garlic for my tastes (and i love garlic)“

It can be a little noisy but it's a good dinner spot for the area ( even if it may take a minute to find parking don't let that deter you.)Parking: Not a lot of parking but worth the effort.“

“Hidden gem on the water in a boat storage yard. We went for brunch Food was fresh and well prepared staff was pleasant, attentive and well informed. I travel with a vegan and a vegetarian this place was perfect for us lots of options for all. The layered dip had just the right amount of heat with great flavor highly recommend sharing this dish to start Avocado toast was brought to another level with a pesto base under the avocado and tomato’s with a balsamic drizzle on top. Cali burrito has the fries inside tasty and unexpected. Lobster roll perfectly grilled bun heaped with fresh lobster meat they happily substituted broccolini for the fries that usually come with it. Looking forward to returning and trying the outdoor dining area looks great was a bit cold and dreary outsideVegetarian options: Great vegetarian and vegan selections the layered dip is a must try. Everything was super fresh“

“Honestly can't beat how delicious the burgers are, and for such a fair price..! We used to order from Prime 16, but Christopher Martins does burgers better. They seem to have a better handle of how to actually cook them right, so we have switched!4/5 on atmosphere but only due to inside smelling strongly of beer (fair enough). Attaching a picture of the cajun fries – absolutely delicious. The onion rings are a little different (think "shoestring" onion rings) but very tasty“

“A tiny take out only shop. There is no place to sit, no WC. The salad is very good though, fresh, ample size, great mix of vegetables and lettuce, flat bread, dressings. The drink menu is very good as well.The place is expensive, though. 12$ for a salad is a bit high. 6$ for a drink. But the food is healthy and tastes quite good.Service was fast, but a line forms faster. Expect to wait. Service was terse, not friendly, but that might be the pressure of the line.They is only street parking. The place is close to Yale, so there is lots of traffic. Order ahead if you can.“

“This was hands down one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. My special guy's father is friend's with the owner & we brought family visiting from Italy for dinner. This was my first time trying the food, everything was delicious, portions huge. You can order larger, family style meals several days in advance & it's BYOB (love it). I was very surprised by everything as the outside along with the name of the restaurant doesn't remotely sound like an Italian restaurant. I would definitely take the ride just to eat here again.“

I had the best pancakes I’ve had in a long time! They were huge and fluffy with just the right amount of crisp on the outside. The very helpful and kind waitress made my delicious coffee perfectly. Others in our group ordered the grilled cheese with tomato, the hamburger platter, the steak burrito, the parmesan wings, and a bagel with cream cheese. It is a tough group to impress and they were all very happy! My husband wants to come back ASAP for more wings! Very friendly family owned diner that made us out of towners feel very welcomed!“

“I’m sure this is a nice place otherwise, but when your tone of voice screams “peon” with every breath, you really need to snap out of it. After watching several people peon voice all over a lady sitting on the stoop who just learned that her sister died, I’m personally over whatever Skull and Bones caché you think you’re engendering as you forget that you have no idea what other people are going through.“

“The food was great. Beet salad was fresh and well dressed. The honeynut squash ravioli and the pappardelle Bolognese were delicious and the portion was just right. The service was very attentive, although a bit too much and to the point of being somewhat intrusive. The server seemed to rush us to order when we were not ready and were at the table every few minutes filling our water. They replaced the silverware from the 1st course which was again, very attentive and were there right away if we needed anything. Also didn't like that a drink was more expensive in the restaurant than it was at the bar upstairs. That seemed odd.“

“We come here almost once a week with our two elementary schoolers. The staff is always kind, solicitous, and patient, even when one of our kids wants a number of "customizations" to her mac and cheese order. We always look to find a table near the one tv that isn't playing sports but rather is playing funny videos to keep our kids engaged so that the adults can catch up on our days. The cocktails are good and filled to the rim. And, we always appreciate the rotating specials menu so there is something new to try each time for the adults. Can't ask for much more in a go-to neighborhood restaurant.“
