“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.“
“Went to catch lunch during a conference next door at the conference center and was pleasantly surprised. It was a cool little niche with a modern feel. We were sat quickly, efficiently and the staff was very pleasant! The lobster roll with homemade French fries for $18 was delicious. Not only served to look pretty but the taste was excellent. Great value. The fries are a must! The chicken panini was also great!“
“As a personal trainer and health conscious I absolutely love this place. It’s. Nice treat right after a killer workout ?️. The cupcakes and mini donuts are out of this world. Wish you had. Place in Wethersfield or newington as I am transferring to healthtrax in newington ?Thank you to cupcake fairy for introducing your cupcakes ? I hardly have sweets, so when I do, I look forward to your cupcakes “
“5/5 on taste and looks this was really good!!! Things that I think can improve would be adding drinks like a milk choice. I think having food products you need drinks. And also the forks are really cheap and when the cakes are cold the fork given bends. I think this can be changed and doesn't change that the taste is amazing“
“Where do I begin Family? Goldburgers deserves every single star for they go out of their way from the moment you step foot in the door to make you feel at home. The menu board is POW, right smack in your face flooded with options and for a first timer there, it could possibly be overwhelming to decide on just a few items but they are right there to hold your hungry hand and walk you through their wonderland of foodie options. Now I went in a few directions.... Let us begin with the Mac Squares that are made to attack your tastebuds in a way to bring creamy delight with an orchestra of cheese and a sweet symphony of seasoning on the fried breaded goodness that the macaroni is encased in. A single bite and your eyes widen with glee. You are nothing short of happy as you continue to chew your way through this playground of flavors that are meant for the masses. My Fat Attack did not stop there folks.... I also had their 50/50 which consists of half sweet potato fries (as my choice) and half Super Sized Onion Rings that had all types of crispiness to their own bite. Now the fries were good....Nice light Sweet and Salty vibe, they. kept you going back for more but these onion rings were made for the Champion in you! Large and in charge, crispy with a nice snap on the onions. It the batter for me that wasn't greasy but inviting. The Tso-ly Loaded Waffle fries, hit a homer and sent the rest of my appetizers to home plate and we all started to cheer within my mouth. What better way to bring about a wild and savory bite than to have some Ginger Soy coming in tangy and Chipotle Mayo barking up the right tree in way of packing a nice creamy yet spicy punch in my mouth over the crisp on that fried broccoli - TALK TO ME BABY and love me the way you do!!! I just worked you all the way up to their POT ROAST SANDWICH!! Yikes!! The easiest way to break this one down is to say, scoop your pot roast from your bowl and then slap that tasty monstrosity between two fresh buns of soft haven fun and now take a BITE!! Tender Beef, Onions with the Gravy Dripping and as you chew, a single tear drops from your eye for you've just experienced something amazing. Your soul thanks you on this one. Goldburgers, I WILL BE BACK BABY!!!“
“This morning we had a dish called The Hungry Harvest at my favorite breakfast. shop. Three scrambled eggs, ham, bacon, avocado, shredded grilled potatoes, and a slice of toasted whole grain bread with notes of chocolate and coffee. Fabulous! As always, the service and ambience were just outstanding“
“I’ve been going there for over 12 years and everything is amazing. The chocolates are the best I’ve ever had in my 54 years on earth. You can’t go wrong - everything they make is blessed with artistry, the best ingredients and meticulous care. A true gem in the town. Try the vegan mozzarella too!“
“Everything is delicious!!! Everything!!The wait staff is the best!Waiting in line is worth it!Remember one line only!! Don't even try to cut! Lol!Wheelchair accessibility: It would be very tight but doable!I'm sure they would help get it done if needed. Its just crowded and the hallway is narrow.“
“????? Celebrating our daughter Gigi’s birthday, my wife and I ventured to Pop Over Eatery in Simsbury, CT, for a breakfast that was beyond our wildest dreams. As a professional chef, I was thrilled to discover a popover (also known as Yorkshire pudding) on the menu—a rare find that instantly caught my attention. The food was nothing short of fantastic, each dish prepared with such care and flavor that left us wanting more. From the sumptuous Belgian waffle to the variety of vegan options, every bite was a delight. What made our visit even more special was Sarah, the owner, who personally came over to ensure we were enjoying our meal, adding a touch of warmth and hospitality that truly made us feel at home. Pop Over Eatery is a gem in Simsbury, offering not just incredible food but also a welcoming atmosphere where every guest is treated like family. I wholeheartedly recommend this eatery to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. Hats off to Sarah and her team for making our daughter’s birthday breakfast unforgettable! ???“
“Food is very good. Salads are always fresh and dressings are perfect. Sometimes the grilled chicken is too hard. Grinders are great and huge. Chicken tenders and fries are well done but sometimes kind of spice (maybe they use pepper). Prices are fair. Overall “
“We really enjoyed all of the cupcakes we tried. The cakes were light and fluffy and super flavorful. Friendly service and a vast selection of flavors. We also picked up a half dozen speciality vegan cupcakes for a friend’s birthday. Ample parking, great location!“
“Great place, very inviting to stay more time in.Great coffee, and great service, too.It's a nice place that I happen to find in one of my many drives that route. Now I know where to stop by whenever I'm in the area for a quick bite!“
“Service was on the slow side, however the dining area was busy. My chicken sandwich was delicious and juicy, and I would definitely order it again. However the $1.50 for the up charge on french fries was not worth it. The fries were soggy, limp and unseasoned.It wasn't all bad. Like I said I really enjoyed my beer and my chicken sandwich.Parking: Nice new looking building but parking seems limited.“
“We were definitely under dressed but stopped here on a whim and it was a good experience. We will definitely be back. My son had a dairy and soy allergy and I don’t eat dairy and they were beyond amazing with allergies. They can really accommodate anyone with an allergy! We will for sure be back. It was also very big portions and reasonably priced. Kids meal is only $8!Dietary restrictions: They are great with any allergy precautions!“
“The food is out of this world!!!!! The fried chicken is so moist and perfect. I got the honey mustard wrap and garlic parm fries and it was divine!!! My bf got the southern fried chicken and it was phenomenal. Even the nachos and chilli were fantastic! Cannot go wrong here. 10/10!!“
“The team at PF Chang’s Westfarms are so welcoming! From the hosts, to servers, to management. Our server Jack was exceptional. He knew recommended a few items, he was fast & didn’t make us feel like we were asking for to much! Hats off to Jack; he needs a promotion.Fast service & delicious food. Thanks team; we’ll be back very soon“
“My family has been enjoying Healthy is the Way weekly for over a year and a half. With two working professionals, we were finding that we just did not have enough time to meal plan, grocery shop, cook and clean 7 days a week. There were too many lunches and dinners that we'd order in or throw together something quick and unsatisfying. We use Healthy is the Way to supplement 2-3 dinners and 2-3 lunches every week which ensures us that we will have healthy, home cooked food ready to go and takes the pressure off of us to prepare every meal. It has been a huge game changer for us. Thank you Jill!“
“Nestled on **765 Sullivan Ave in South Windsor, CT**, Birdhouse Coffee isn't just a coffee shop; it's a symphony of flavors, warmth, and community. As I stepped inside, the rich aroma of freshly roasted beans enveloped me, inviting me to stay awhile.The baristas, true artisans, take their time crafting each pour-over. I opted for their signature blend, the **"Morning Song"**, a dance of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe and Colombian beans. With every sip, I tasted dark chocolate, ripe berries, and a hint of floral sweetness—a harmonious composition.But let's dive deeper into the coffee symphony Birdhouse offers:1. **Morning Song**: The star of the show, this blend is a morning ritual. It greets you with a gentle crescendo of flavors, awakening your senses for the day ahead.2. **Sunrise Serenade**: A light roast that sings notes of citrus and jasmine. Perfect for those who prefer a delicate melody in their cup.3. **Velvet Sonata**: A medium-dark roast with undertones of caramel and toasted hazelnuts. It's like a warm embrace on a chilly afternoon.4. **Midnight Rhapsody**: For the night owls, this bold blend boasts dark chocolate, smoky cedar, and a touch of mystery. Pair it with a slice of their decadent chocolate cake.And the pastries deserve a standing ovation. The **blueberry scone**, flaky and buttery, burst with juicy blueberries. Paired with my coffee, it was a delightful duet.But Birdhouse Coffee isn't just about the brew; it's about connections. Locals gather here, sharing stories, laughter, and sometimes a game of chess. It's a haven—a place where caffeine meets camaraderie.The rustic wooden decor, soft jazz, and friendly baristas create an inviting ambiance. Whether you're seeking a morning pick-me-up or an evening refuge, Birdhouse Coffee hits all the right notes.So, if you find yourself in South Windsor, follow the melody to Birdhouse Coffee. It's more than coffee; it's a soulful tune—a reminder that life's best moments happen over a cup of warmth.*Disclaimer: This review reflects my personal experience and taste preferences. Yours may vary, but I hope it's as delightful as mine!“
“Been there several times, one of our favorites. The food is always delicious and there is a wide selection on the menus. Whether you go for Italian or Portuguese, you can't go wrong. The service is attentive, without being overbearing. The dining area is quite large, white tablecloth dining always a pleasure. Only one drawback is if there is a large party, it can get rather noisy.“
“Literally my favorite restaurant food in the world. We had Indigo at our wedding and it was delicious as always. The folks working there are very nice and always ask how we’re doing when me make an order. Portions are very generous and the flavor is top notch. Whenever I have family or friends visiting it’s at the top of my list for them to try. You won’t be disappointed.Dietary restrictions: I am a very sensitive celiac and have been eating here symptom free for years!“
“Donna, the owner, is an angel. The times I have gone in were last-minute, hair-on-fire moments. And each time, she's always smooth, calm & collected. Super-pleasant and always eager to please. She's the best!Recently, I called in the morning for my 11 year old's birthday gluten-free cupcake and then I forgot and the hours had already passed for them to be open, but Donna was still there and gladly opened the door and sold me the cupcake I needed. If that's not the epitome of customer service, I don't know what is. She cares and is always ready to help.As for the quality of the cupcakes, they are Simply Delicious and moist and overflowing with flavor and creativity. I bought some for some teachers at my child's school and they absolutely love them and everyone I know Raves about her and her service and the quality of her cupcakes.Whether it's in a pinch or if you're planning a big gathering, I know where I'm going to go... and it's here!Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free“
“Ricotta pies are to die for. The only thing that bugs me is that I never carry cash on me and they are an all cash business now. I guess my waistline will appreciate the numerous times I’ve driven by and not been able to stop and grab something.“
“i have been to bartaco a few times now and i always have a great experience! i went with my dad and sister earlier today and got the new cauliflower pistachio rice bowl and a couple of mushroom tacos. i’m SO glad they have tasty vegan options. kiki was super helpful and made great suggestions! highly recommend :) “
“Products are fresh undoubtedly but very much costlier in comparison with other places. The interior is really different, organized and they have created themes like Disneyland. Haha, if you even don't wanna buy, you can go for a visit. I liked their concepts. They have flower sections also...“
“The BEST manager and staff! They are all so friendly and helpful. Tony and the crew are always on point! We love getting the Pork Pastor Phorrito, Shrimp Pho and Beef Quesadilla. One of the top Mexican restaurants in Glastonbury. Thank you so much we will be back again soon! ?“
“Traveling for business and I just needed a quick bite. Whole Deli was the perfect stop. Great customer service, reasonable prices, and a yummy sandwich. I like a basic sandwich- so just got ham and Swiss on a grinder. The bread was fresh and freaking delicious! So was the ham and Swiss. Perfect amount and so good! Would definitely recommend.“
“I love this place! They have by far the best smoothies! Not water or slushy! I wish I could have one every day! My bestie lives in DE now and she still gets one every time she’s up here. Definitely recommend if you want the best smoothie you’ve ever had!“
“Thank you to Carol and Heather for creating the most beautiful and tasty cake for my cousin's dragon themed baby shower. The shower was at a tea house so Heather topped the cake with an adorable dragon in a teacup which was so fitting for the occasion! The cake flavor itself was a recommendation from Carol: coconut cake with raspberry filling and was very good. My cousin is gluten free which is why I got this cake but majority of the people at the shower were not gluten free and couldn't even tell the difference. In fact, they are still talking about how amazing it was!“
“I went in on March 19 to get some Zeppoles and I got a box of cookies on a whim. I’ve always preferred the sandwich cookies and chocolate covered ones. Usually, from other places or the grocery store, they’re good but dry and hard. The cookies from Guiseppina’s were the softest most flavorful Italian sandwich cookies I’ve never had. They were absolutely delicious. I will be coming back! The zeppoles were fabulous but I have never had Italian sandwich cookies like that. Thank you!“
“Bhog has the best restaurant-made Biryani in Connecticut. My wife makes the best biryani (with Goat or Chicken) at home which is time consuming. But when she doesn’t have the time, we get biryani from Bhog. Our favorite by far is the Goat biryani from Bhog.“
“Nice little place right behind Whole Foods in West Hartford. There are plenty of parking spots and the ambiance inside gives a Mexican local place, the theme is day of the dead hence you will see all images and decor in that fashion. We went there early during the day so there was not many patrons dining. The service was quick and the cashier is very friendly. You have to just pay for your food at the counter and the goods gets brought to your table. The food tasted so good we have tried the carne asada burrito bowl with veggies instead of rice. I would recommend trying out the bowls. I had to give a 4 star because the table we weee sitting on was sticky and may not have been cleaned thoroughly. I recommend the restaurant owner to keep the tables clean. Will go back again to try out their tacos. Good find in West Hartford“
“Food is fresh and made from scratch. The owners are a family of amazingly hard workers, friendly and just great overall. Chicken soup is the best esp when you have a cold. Lola Bread is omg so good! Idk who thought of using feta vs mozz but it’s the best idea! Prices are better than others near them too. Chicken wings are some of the best I’ve ever had. Oh and you have to try the Eggplant Rollatini too!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options“
“Best cake ever!! Amazing in design (the photo I provided matched the cake wonderfully) and the taste was as impressive. It’s hard to get both from a custom cake. Our grandchildren Loved it!! We got a Marvel Superhero cake. My husband and I highly recommend!“
“Really nice cozy small restaurant that will surprise you with how much space it actually has, looks much smaller from the outside.The food is way above average, definitely getting a good meal. My only recommendation is that I wished like most sandwich shops, you would get a pickle or bag of chips on the side with your meal. This would make me say the price for what you get is definitely worth it, for now it's more of an okayyyy pricing.Staff are extremely friendly and welcoming!“
“I've been coming here for years, love the place but recently it has been even better! The new weekend crew is amazing! Very funny and personable. The food is always great as well! The weekends seem to be where it's at. Night time crew isn't too bad on the eyes either.“
“I can not begin to tell you how much my husband & I LOVE Harry's!! Every time we have gone there or ordered out it was FABULOUS :) The only words I have to describe their pizza is MANA FROM HEAVEN, and I don't use those words lightly. Very friendly staff, and very welcoming atmosphere. :)“
“Let’s start with the staff: I was greeted with a smile and the young lady was beyond kind and sweet listened to everything I had to say ( dietary restrictions) she double checked everything!! Awesome: now the food just adds them to the next level, it was made hot fresh and quick! The home fries are to die for!! Highly recommend them!“
“I've been here a couple of times now and both times were great. The service was quick, friendly, and fast. The food came out looking and tatsing delicious. I've only dined outside on their spacious patio because the weather was great. They had the heater blasting which I requested to to be turned down because it was burning my head, other patrons agreed.I started off with a Saturday fun day glass of their Green Mind Avocado Margarita, yes, you read that right; avocado mixed into a margarita, very interesting but it worked. The drink was on the smaller side for $13 and change but it was good and I could taste the slight creaminess of the avocado. They had a good sized cocktail menu and a variety of craft beers.On this most recent visit, I had the Korean BBQ burger. OMG, juicy and flavorful; it had gochujang mayo, kimchi, onion straws, and Korean BBQ sauce. The fries were crunchy and seasoned well. I wished there were more pickled cucumber slices because those were BANGIN'. Overall, a great experience at lunch and can't wait to try out their other burgers.Kid-friendliness: High chairs available“
“I tried this place for the first time and was impressed. The staff were knowledgeable and able to accommodate vegan options. This indicates an important detail; the food is freshly made and prepared.The bottomline is that most peoplewill find a truely special option here within the options of customization.Vegetarian options: most items can be made vegan. exceptionally even the curries can be made vegan.“
“I personally enjoy me some Mooyah. The burgers and fries are always delicious. Definitely get a shake, they are nice and thick. Staff is always super friendly and they even bring your food out to the table if you dine in. I recommend give it a try!“
“This place is WONDERFUL. The minute you walk in the door the first thing they ask is if you need a gluten free menu, that's music to a person who struggles with celiac ears! It is absolutely amazing for any restaurant to offer such an extensive variety of gluten free options. It's hard enough finding places who actually have gluten free items on their menu let alone an entire menu. Our waitress Alicia was PHENOMENAL. My mother, best friend and sister and law brought me here as a surprise for my upcoming birthday. As a person with celiac disease who struggles to go out and enjoy myself with family and friends, was VERY impressed with the menu selection and the attention to assure it stays gluten free. I was so overcome with emotion looking at the menu I actually teared up. I sent many compliments to the manager about the waitstaf, the chef and the menu. And thanked him many times for having that safe place for someone with celiac to be able to enjoy themselves. I will repeatedly go to this restaurant as my experience here was so incredible .Dietary restrictions: They have an entire gluten free menu! And every one of the desserts can be made gluten free“
“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.“
