“What a fun and elevated bowling experience! Great food and drinks . Service was lovely ! Very clean ! Highly recommend!“

“Just enjoyed amazing cocktails (Gimlet and Curry Barbados) and Nosh (mushrooms had amazing flavor, Korean fried chicken sandwich, salty and delicious, empanadas crisp and yummy) from their Happy Hour menu which is being expanded from 4:00 to 6:00. On Tuesday starting at 6:30 or 7:00 is a jazz quartet which we sadly had to miss but will definitely be back. Our waitress Claire was darling and very informative. Bartender was spectacular!“

“Our server Randi was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. She is a real p.lus for your business. The firecracker shrimp was amazing.“

“Everything was Great!! I walked in expecting good service and good food and I walked out a happy customer. I ordered the bbq and the j*** sauce wings, It was amazing!! I was actually licking my fingers because the sauce was sooo good. I must add the decor was beautiful. It looked so elegant on first encounter and I found myself talking about it during my whole dinner. You won't regret eating at favorites. I promise you, I will be a regular over there.“

“I recently hosted a bridal shower at Mix in Mystic, and it exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, the entire event was beautiful, seamless, and so well done.

The food was absolutely perfect, and the staff did an outstanding job consistently replenishing the buffet so everything stayed fresh and plentiful throughout the event. The service was top notch—everyone was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure our guests had a great experience. They served with smiles and made everyone feel welcome.

A special thank you to Brittany, the Events Manager, who was incredible to work with. She was responsive, organized, easy to communicate with, and so helpful throughout the planning process. She made everything stress-free, especially when it came to dietary restrictions and providing alternative food options for guests, and was a huge part of why the day went so smoothly.

The downtown Mystic location and beautiful view from the restaurant added so much to the atmosphere of the event and made the day feel even more special.

Our guests had an amazing time, and I lost count of how many people told me how special and beautiful everything was. I would highly recommend Mix in Mystic for any special event. They truly helped make the day unforgettable.“

Already looking forward to our next visit!“

“My boyfriend and I are hitting lots of bars in the Groton area as we are looking to get a house soon! Visited this place just once and instantly became a favorite. Owner was SO cool and chatty with us, and the locals as well! Pool was a lot of fun! Amazing and welcoming atmosphere for a young couple. We’ll be back!“

“What an excellent experience we had last night! The restaurant is decorated beautifully for the holiday season. We sat at the bar & had impeccable service. The food was outstanding. The homemade bread and flavored butter -- just yum!! Calamari was cooked to perfection and the seafood pasta dish was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant and can't wait to return!!“

“They have CBD seltzers, unlike many of the other local establishments, which is very nice for a non-drinker like myself to be able to hang out with the cool kids, so to speak.

Generally good music.
Great regular crowd.“

“Love this place great place to see live music“

“The service was great, drinks were delicious and the pork chop….perfection!“

“great place with great people.“

“Excellent bar with a surprising food selection. Have been going here for years. Same look inside. Rustic. Delicious Southwestern Salad with grilled chicken. Perfectly cooked chicken, crisp lettuce, better than any sit down restaurant. Great venue for bands, including Aquanett who gave a great concert on 4/18/26.“

“Favorite bonbons that we tried (ranked by most favorite but no bonbons were bad!): Vanilla, tiramisu, hazelnut latte, coconut, apple chai. We loved our bartender and we were pleasantly surprised that each specialty drink also came with a bonbon!“

“My friend and I stopped in for a quick bite to eat and a drink! I had a fabulous martini and delicious Margareta Flatbread pizza that was cooked to perfection! Rachel was our bartender and she was pure perfection! She was attentive, friendly and kind! And the expresso martini was the best I ever had! Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“We stumbled upon Dive Bar accidentally and we weren’t quite sure what to expect as we descended down the steps into the bar itself. While this isn’t a spot you’re going to find any cocktails they can throw you together a little something as long as they have the ingredients for it. The vibes were good, the music was at a perfect volume allowing us to hear our friends chat & the Photo Booth was a cute little touch that had us running back for more! If you’re looking for a chill place to end the night, check out The Dive Bar!“

“Love the steak bomb for lunch.“

“Feels Like Home – Amazing Cantonese Food! Golden Palace in Connecticut is hands down one of the best Cantonese restaurants I’ve been to. Their dim sum is so authentic — just like the kind you’d get in Hong Kong or southern China. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and made with real care. What really makes this place special is the people. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming — every time I come here, I feel like I’m back home in China. It’s that kind of warm, family-style hospitality that’s hard to find these days. Whether you’re craving dim sum or a comforting Cantonese meal, you won’t be disappointed. Highly recommend!“

“4/5 stars

So far as this is, we’ve had the shrimp scampi lobster risotto crabcake as well as the beef Wellington overall review four out of five stars starting out with the

shrimp scampi good flavors great sauce, Lil underseasoned but perfectly cooked

Lobster risotto, light, fluffy, airy, perfectly cooked risotto, and lobster. That was so soft. It had to be poached when it was cooked how tender it was overall flavor very subtle again.

Crabcake good amount of crab not much filler great overall crabcake could have used a little bit more sauce again very well cooked

Moving onto the last, the beef Wellington
I have never had beef Wellington before, but I can tell you the experience when trying this my first bite was amazing perfectly cooked medium rare center. Good amount of flavor nice crispy crust.

We also had the pudding as well, probably the best item on the entire menu by far

Overall, I rate this at a four out of five on a scale very small portions highly priced cooked perfectly underseasoned I would be returning, but it would be a very long time before I do 4/5“

“Get the huge beakers. I know it's like $25 but i don't care!!! They are SO CUTE! The banana and strawberry daiquiris are both vegan and it's my understanding that a lot of the other flavors are too. Every flavor is dairy free so you just need to inquire about the alcohol used“

“Service was great. Atmosphere was also good. Food was fast and definitely priced very fairly. The meats on every one of our entrees were dry though. I so badly wanted to 5 star this place. Hoping it was an off night as the reviews were good from most.“

“Great place to see live music. Bartenders are great.“
