Gather55 55 Bartholomew Ave, Hartford American • $$$

“We had a party of 3 so tried everything on the menu and we loved it. The roasted squash was probably the star of the show. All of the entrees were nicely sized portions and well executed. The butterscotch pudding was great. Service was also top notch. Angie took great care of us and I would request her great service next time we come in. This concept is truly special and I hope it flourishes.”

Salute

Salute 100 Trumbull St, Hartford Italian • $$

“I highly recommend Salute. We ended up at Salute after asking for a recommendation from a coworker for a family dinner. As soon as we walked in, they embraced us as family. All the wait staff was pleasant, knowledgeable and the service was quick, but not at all rushed. When the owner, Jimmy, learned we were there celebrating some big things, he truly went out of his way to make us feel special. I can’t thank him enough for all he did for us. It was our first time there, yet he took the time (on a busy night!) to learn our names, ask questions and congratulate us. The evening was complete with incredible food, gotta get yourself the cheesy garlic bread (YUM!!) and all our meals were generous portions and delicious. We all loved our drinks, too! After mentioning our experience to my brother, we learned him, his girlfriend, and her family had a similar experience. This is how they treat everyone.”

J Restaurant | Bar 297 Washington St, Hartford Italian • $$

“A great dining experience, as always! We've eaten at J a half dozen or so times over the years. J is consistently excellent. Whether you're going “classic” with Filet Mignon or being more adventurous with Veal Milanese, you won't be disappointed! My veal was perfectly done, tender, hot, yet crunchy with a wonderfully light arugula side. My partner's Haddock was excellent with perfectly roasted potato wedges. The ambience was lively, busy and a little noisy on this particular evening, Service was efficient and professional. A very nice way to start our evening!”

Max's Trumbull Kitchen 150 Trumbull St, Hartford Fine Dining • $$

“The food is insanely good. My friend and I dine at Trumbull Kitchen before we attend Hartford Stage, and she was still extolling her dinner on the drive home after the show. She had the marinaded steak. The best thing was the response to her request to replace the fries with veggies. The choices were plentiful, and the side salad that arrived was gorgeous.My dinner was equally delicious, seared tuna with salad. Yummy and beautifully plated. The salad dressing (served on-the-side) was exquisite. We each had reasonably priced glasses of wine.Julian, our waiter was running, as was everyone on staff when it became crazy busy at around six o'clock. The bar was hopping and there was a line waiting to be seated. Yet, he checked on us every 5 to 10 minutes and made sure we were well supplied with the spicy, chip-like crackers that come in the bread basket and are irresistible.If there is one negative, it is the very loud sound system which pumps in thumping music that you might want as background for a weight-lifting class at the gym, rather than for dining. I am sure there is a metric that tells restaurants and bars that people drink more if they can't hear themselves think. Personally, I find it offensive. If I could have done, I'd have changed the selection and turned down the volume.”

The Capital Grille 44 Front St, Hartford Fine Dining • $$$$

“I've been to other Capital Grille locations; decided to try this one. Visited on a Saturday evening. Ordered wedge salad and clam chowder as an appetizer. Both were good and consistent with food I've ordered at other locations. Dinner was tenderloin with lobster and seared tuna. Both were cooked well. Potatoes au gratin were quite good. Service I felt was average; dessert took quite a long time to come out unfortunately. Atmosphere is consistent among locations generally and this one was enjoyable and no different. Overall, this location was good and I would return.”

Aurora's Restaurant 399 Capitol Ave, Hartford Bakery • $

The omelette, filled with fresh, and seasoned to perfection, offered a symphony of flavors and textures that stood out remarkably. The cozy ambiance and the attentive service enhanced the meal, making it not just delicious but also genuinely pleasant. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for expertly crafted breakfast dishes, especially their unforgettable vegetable omelette.”

“The ambience was very welcoming and high end. We had just come from dropping our son off to college in the area and was uneasy about the dress code but they were more than welcoming. The food was outstanding but the service... (Jason) went above and beyond. After driving so far and spending the day moving our son in this was just what we needed. We had the oysters , tuna tartare, lobster pierogies for starters ! Delicious! For dinner my daughter had the dry aged burger and she loved it . I had the surf and turf ( amazing) my husband had the prime NY strip. Cocktails were great. I just can't say enough about the service from front desk to our waiter .. we now know Everytime we come to CT we will definitely eat here again !!! Thanks Jason and staff!!

Pietro's Pizza 942 Main St, Hartford Pizza • $

“I love ordering from here. I don't always have this issue but sometimes the fries are soggy from the steam trapped in the cardboard box so I have to reheat them in my airfryer at home. They're always courteous when I call and promptly deliver the food. I've ordered many different things from there and mostly liked them all. Sometimes I have to get toppings for my salad on the side, like the southwest salad because otherwise the liquid from the Pico will make the tortilla strips wet and I just can't do it lol. But the quality is good for the food and most times make it correctly for the changes I request.”

Panera Bread 114 Woodland St, Hartford Cafe • $$

“I have never ordered from this location before, so after placing my order online, I GPS how to get there. I was clueless as to where the location was because it brought me to Saint Francis Hospital. After asking around I was informed that I had to go inside the hospital because Panera was in there. Finally after parking and walking all the way down the road I found it! ( not knowing I could had parked closer ? ) Once I got there, I picked up my online order and I wanted some bakery goodies while I was there. This amazing woman named Christine was helping me out and giving me suggestions as to what tastes amazing as everything there looks great. Now if you want to talk about next level service, after getting so excited for these goodies I was bringing home, I realized I did not have my card or phone to pay with. I didn’t want to walk another 10 minutes down the road and then 10 minutes back there to get these goodies so I just told her forget it I won’t bother getting them . Christine graciously offered to take care of it for me and I was so aesthetic. No one‘s ever done something like that for me. I myself am a manager at a restaurant and I’m always giving things away free items to guests who are celebrating special occasions. I guess today was my day to get something in return for free Christine I just want you to know I am so grateful for your service and the way that you were with me today!!!! Thank you!!!! Take care of her Panera because amazing employees like her are hard to come by and also hard to keep!Yours truly,Xoxo Crystal”

“The service at this establishment is exceptional, with a gentleman greeting every person who walks in the door. While the food was slightly bland, it was still good. I initially thought $15 for a bowl was reasonable due to the hype surrounding it. However, when the cashier informed me that I could pick two sides, she failed to mention the additional fees. As a result, I ended up spending $45 on two bowls of rice, chicken, and double Mac and cheese.”

I had half chicken with rice and beans, plantains and a salad.Kid-friendliness: At the time of my purchase of the food, there was a mother and her small 3 children buying food as well.

The crab rangoons were just the way I like it, thin wonton wrapper and a creamy robust filling of cream cheese, imitation crab, etc. The dipping sauce is sweet chili which paired well with it. I also ordered the chicken poppers to share with my spouse and toddler; my toddler devoured 99% of it, which is saying a lot because he's picky.

“(Note: This review is for the Albany Ave. location) This won't be a popular review. For decades my family would frequent Scott's Bakery. We loved everything that they offered (hardo bread, beef patty, coco bread, plantain tart and so on). When I said we liked EVERYTHING, I mean it. Everything was on point!! Yesterday was my first time (and last time) going into Scott's in about a decade plus. It is clear that management has changed (if not management, something has gone horribly wrong). The shell of the patty was beyond thick and there was little meat in it. The coco bread was beyond disgusting! It was a flavorless clump of undercooked dough. You know how coco bread is supposed to taste. It didn't taste like that at all. It seems as though they've cut corners on their peanut punch which had a gell-like texture. The BEST part of everything that I purchased was the Cola Champagne. As long as they continue to use the same distributor they can't mess that up. Maybe they had a bad day. I won't be spending money to find out.”

Orale Guey Mexican Kitchen 704 Park St, Hartford Mexican • $

“My current top hidden gem for amazing and authentic Mexican food. Hidden in La plaza del Mercado, this spot has the most amazing tripe soup, where the tripe was properly cleaned, no funky taste/smell, cooked perfectly tender. Great caldo de res as well, the meat was tender and had a strong beef flavor, soup was light and refreshing and the veggies provided a nice natural sweetness and the squash was incredible inside. Their tacos are great as well and their pricing is a bargain and their portions are quite good.”
