The eat in diners couldn’t stop praising his dishes. The way he works with his customers is amazing. My hat off to him and his staff. Keep up the good work, Andrew. My family will be back for more. Five Stars”

“Hands down the best Indian buffet that I've ever had in the US. Thursday is their Dosa night where they have a live Dosa station along with South Indian staples served in buffet style. On the weekends they have buffet lunch ranging from Goat Dum biriyani to Haryali green chili chicken to their famous Tawa fish (amazing appetizer). If you're around Hartford or a student at UConn do yourself a favor and visit this place for their buffets. The restaurant is clean, they serve alcohol , service is excellent and the food is honestly to die for! I cannot recommend this place enough 👌🏼💯”

“I would be there right now if they still had the chicken parm sandwich”

“Excellent all around. Great food and atmosphere.”

“Very good breakfast! Highly recommend.”

“Yellow curry and crab rangoons were absolutely delicious! Had enough curry for 2 meals, too. I got pad Thai mild spicy for my husband and it was okay. It was a little dry and not spicy enough, so if you want it spicy order your food hotter than mild spice! Will definitely be back for the curry and crab rangoons, though! Ordered online, so can't speak for service, but food was nice and hot when I arrived to pick up.”

“Def worth the visit 😇 will return again !”

“Such a great place for so many things. Breakfast, lunch dates, coffee, family date night, kids art class, date night, birthday parties, etc. The food is delicious and the staff are always helpful, polite, and professional. Highly recommend.”

“It feels like being home. Cozy and welcoming. The coffee and food is out of this world delicious.”

“It took a little bit to get the food, but it was worth the wait!”

“So fresh and delicious! #7th Day Give Back Event to benefit local food banks!”

“Long Gut Miss Pinny is such a hidden gem in Manchester. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was great, and the service was even better. Everything tasted super fresh and homemade. It’s run by a mother and daughter, and you can really tell how much care goes into the food. The mac and cheese was so good, the Jamaican patties were perfectly flaky, and the pepper shrimp had the perfect amount of spice. The chicken soup with pumpkin was comforting and flavorful, and the oxtail and curry chicken were absolutely delicious. Definitely a spot I’ll be going back to. Highly recommend checking it out.”

“Yes yes yes’s. Great waitress and fabulous bus boy. Leighana and Aaron are great employees”

“first time there, great selection of beer, great prices and fun atmosphere. Only thing I would suggest is put regular croutons on the Caesar salad and not the pretzel ends, they were very hard and seemed stale.”

“The food was great! I got chicken chow mein, house rice, and an egg roll. The chicken chow mein vegetables were nice and crunchy. Plenty of chicken. The house rice was delightful with shrimp. The egg roll was crunchy and filled with vegetables. All the food was served nice and hot! I even received a small side of white rice and crunchy fried egg noodles!”

“Found this gem when using Google to find a nearby sushi restaurant. Very nice staff, friendly and fast service. Food was very good. The kimchi tofu soup was a pleasant surprise to try, will definitely be getting that again. I love Boba tea, didn't dissapoint. Had the spring rolls for appetizer, crispy and flavorful. Tried our favorite classics spicy tuna and shrimp tempura, very happy with our experience. will be coming back. Don't forget your Sake!”

“Worth a stop. The environment is warm and welcoming and all the food is delicious. I had the Pollo Borracho and my wife had Carne Asada. The chicken was cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. The sauce was unbelievable, and the beans were perfection.

Alcohol here seemed expensive, so we did not order any drinks. I would stop again!”

“We had the Taco Pizza and one of the "12 Grinders delivered last night with some chicken wings. The Pizza was amazing, the Grinder was surprisingly HUGE and absolutely delicious. Huge chunks of chicken, lots of cheese, good flavor!! The chicken wings were disappointing but still would 100% recommend. Thanks for a delicious dinner 😁”

“Food was great Kathy with a K was great also strongly recommend”

“i have yet to have anything less than great food! all the employees are super friendly, the goat curry, mix over rice, the veggie and chicken samosas are excellent! please try the mango lassie!! it is my second favorite restaurant after my own kitchen =) i grew up working in Fianos restuarant so i have some experience”

“Always excellent service and attentive”

“Fast and friendly service. Able to change menu items to suit individual taste”

“We had such a wonderful experience at Joey’s Garlic! The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the penne a la vodka, shrimp scampi, and fried calamari, and every dish was full of flavor. The portions were huge—definitely family-style! Honestly, one plate would have been enough for both of us, and we still had plenty of leftovers to enjoy at home. The restaurant itself has a beautiful setting with an industrial hipster vibe, warm lighting, and a fun flare that makes the atmosphere really inviting. Service was excellent—our server was both fast and friendly, which made the evening even better. For the quality and size of the portions, the pricing was amazing and very affordable. We truly felt like we got more than our money’s worth. We’re already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu next time!”

“Nick was an excellent server. He was very attentive and provided excellent customer service to our party of 20. And he did so all by himself. I was very impressed with his attention to details and patience. We booked our party in advance and they had the table preset when we arrived. I would recommend this location to anyone looking to book a large party.”

“While I can't speak to the in restaurant experience, I ordered takeout from here for the first time and I will certainly be ordering again. The chicken and sausage carbonara is so tasty, and the portion size could feed three people. The wings were fried well, and I'm looking forward to trying other flavors. Overall, it's giving the perfect neighborhood takeout spot that will likely be my go to moving forward.”

“Placed an order through Uber Eats. This being my first time ever ordering here and I must say I was very happy with my order. Portions were large, arrived hot, and all the food was fresh and flavorful. I look forward ordering here again!”

“Most of the time a good experience. Today this location burned my bagel . i asked 4 a replacement and they gave me half. The manager gave me dirty looks. They charged me $2 for cream cheese. Bad customer service.”

“I think it's a grate Restaurant and the service is excellent. The food is on time and it's in a nice calm area.”

“I loved mc donalds from the time I was a child. It has always been my favorite fast food place but these days it's hard to communicate with the staff members due to language barriers and that sometimes results in them giving bad attitudes.”

“Treats so good, my friends and I drove 11 hours just to come sample the things we can’t have shipped! Lovely owner as well!”

“📅 August 23, 2025 WRITTEN REVIEW Big Al’s Reel Reviews - Ep. 153 Filomena’s On Main Street Town of Manchester, CT 🌆 Atmosphere & Vibe We walked into a great atmosphere - families around, a warm and friendly vibe, and a beautiful interior. The crowd was very diverse, which added to the positive energy and sense of community in the room. Inside, it looks amazing, making it a comfortable and enjoyable place to settle in for dinner. Overall, the atmosphere here was top-notch. 👥 Service Our server was Joel, and he set the tone right away. He was very nice, attentive, and friendly, checking in often and making sure we had everything we needed. The whole staff gave off that same positive, welcoming energy. 🍽️ What I Ordered 1️⃣ Buffalo Wings- Hot (10 pcs) - $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Amazing, top-notch chicken wings. Cooked just right and full of flavor. 2️⃣ Buffalo Wings- House Blend (10 pcs)- $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Same deal - perfectly done, flavorful, and backed up by a delicious blue cheese dressing. 3️⃣ Calamari (Appetizer) - $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Crispy, fresh, and cooked to perfection. Absolutely amazing. 4️⃣ Hot Honey Chicken Deluxe Sandwich (with fries) - $18 👍🏾 👉🏾 Solid sandwich. Chicken was juicy, hot honey brought the right kick, and the fries were on point. A very good plate. 5️⃣ Chicken Parmesan - $23 👍🏾 👉🏾 Delicious and well executed. The chicken was tender and soft - I could cut it easily with my fork. The sauce was flavorful, the mozzarella melted perfectly, and the whole dish came together beautifully. A great chicken parm that earns a strong thumbs up. 📝 Final Take Filomena’s on Main Street in Manchester absolutely delivered. From the welcoming and diverse atmosphere to the friendly service from Joel, everything lined up for a great night. The wings and calamari were excellent, the sandwich solid, and the chicken parmesan was a standout. And after tonight, I can finally say it… I like Filomena’s. …on Main Street. 😏 ☝🏾❤️ - Big Al Mayo “Always keeping it Real to Reel.””

“Fresh and delicious! Doesn’t get any better than this.”

“Visiting my home state of Connecticut led me to stop in at Shady Glen’s for a bite to eat before going up to Storrs to watch the Women’s Basketball Champions take on Villanova. Emma was a 💎 gem. Her hospitality was warm and she made me feel like it hadn’t been 20 years since I last visited.
For anyone who hasn’t stopped in a while, you won’t be disappointed.”

“One night, no one in the house felt like making dinner, so we decided to treat ourselves to a couple of pizzas from Frank Pepe Pizzeria in Manchester. We ordered one with all the regular toppings, one original tomato pizza with cheese and a clam pizza. This was the best idea we had in a long time. All 3 pizzas were outstanding. My only complaint, and it is a minor one, was that the crust was not as thin as it is in New Haven (the original location). That is me being a little picky. Otherwise, no body make a better pizza!”

“Everything ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ delicioso”

“The food is always delicious. I've never had an issue! it's really bad when the waitress learns your order from how often I go and get the same thing 😅. I rate this place 11/10!!”

“Discovered this breakfast place w my friend @joesanchez - food was great and ambience was quaint.”

“Came to Baja’s in New Bedford on its first day open. We’ve been so excited for a local Baja’s. Customer service was amazing, so friendly. Food was fresh and delicious. My family can’t wait to return 😃.”

“Me encanta comer en este restaurante! Siempre está la comida muy fresca y deliciosa. Estas quesibirrias (quesadillas de birria) estaban exquisitas! Sigan así! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“great and helpful staff, food and drink is awesome. they make you feel like family. a real important note is they support and are vested in the community. I drive 14 miles past countless other breweries just to support this business.”

“Came to the Angry Egg this morning for some coffee and a quick breakfast and it was fast and delicious! Service was excellent and everyone was super friendly! I got the French vanilla coffee and the 2 egg breakfast, it was perfect! Thank you! I’ll be back!”

“Cannot say enough good things about The Hollow. Whether you are a golfer or not the restaurant should be added to your regular rotation. The food is top notch, everything on the menu is fantastic. My favorites are the loaded potato chips and the Brit burger. The staff is friendly, the drinks are perfect and everything is reasonably priced (especially here in 2022). Did i mention the view from the patio is beautiful? This restaurant is a must taste!”

“absolutely the best sushi around.”

“My favorite spot to hang out. Been around a long time, very consistent.”

“Our family recently visited Hungry Pot Korean BBQ to celebrate my son’s birthday, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. For many of us, this was our first time dining at a Korean BBQ restaurant, and our server, Tian, went above and beyond to make it memorable. He warmly interacted with everyone at the table, guided us through the ordering process, and even prepared several dishes right at our table, allowing us to try a wide variety of options. The food was fresh, flavorful, and plentiful, leaving everyone fully satisfied. The environment was clean and inviting, the staff was attentive and friendly, and the overall dining experience exceeded our expectations. We left with great memories, and I would highly recommend Hungry Pot Korean BBQ to anyone seeking delicious food and excellent service in a welcoming atmosphere. Reasonably priced, Great food – fresh, flavorful, and plentiful, Friendly staff attentive and welcoming Clean environment Awesome dining experience – fun and engaging Beautiful décor – warm and inviting atmosphere”

“Annie was very friendly and patient, happy to explain any questions I had. She helped me choose a size and design, and was knowledgeable in all things cake! I really appreciated her patience and follow through. She made sure to write out the full request and triple check! Before beginning the cake. It was delicious!!! I got three different flavors, all were perfectly moist and flavorful! My guests enjoyed the cake as well, and our birthday girl thought it was beautiful (it totally was!) Thank you so much Annie!”

“Not only is their entire menu delicious, but the entire staff here is amazingly friendly! They always answer any questions you have, provide the best customer service and always have smiles on their faces. Highly recommend!!!!”

“Was there last night. The ribs and pulled pork grilled cheese was amazing! Good beers and the bartender was attentive and charming!”

“It’s christmas day and they were able to make our huge order with care, all the food was delicious. They were very nice while taking customers in between with how busy they were! incredible”

“Incredible food! The spot is small, but that’s ok.. it’s perfect for takeout. I’ve had both stewed chicken and curry chicken.. the food is very flavorful. I will be a regular here”

“I get my coffee here routinely and have never had a bad cup! I have always had a pleasant experience here. I enjoy trying the new flavors of coffee. I highly recommend this place.”

“They consistently give us great food! One of the local go-tos!”

“Matt and Jonah know how to put a chili dog together. Great service. Quality food for the price.”

“Fue de vacation con mi Familia y nos Encanto la comida estaba muy Rica los recommend que vayan comer alla.”

“Karaoke night is always off the chain!I am a rotating KJ. The house sound system can be very finicky, but when we get it on point, the music and sound is incredible!!! Megan is such a wonderful bartender and support!!! Drinks are flowing, and music is bumping. What more can you ask for on a Sunday night? The Tiger does not disappoint!”

“Typical bar/restaurant with rustic decor and limited seating. Pizzas are typical New Haven style. The specialty pizzas are unique and tasty. We ordered 3 large, with two of them half-n-half. The waitress made a mistake on one. So, although we agreed to eat it rather than wait for the correct one, it wasn't what we wanted. Not saying it wasn't good, just not what we wanted. No harm, no foul.”

“Legendary!! Forever a Manchester staple! Recently on their website and can’t believe everything that they have to offer: weddings, parties, graduations desserts in bulk …you can always get some of their favorites at Highland Park market in Manchester…I recommend a chipwich …Im sure most people would but also their spumoni slices, so good!”

“Ok so here it is.. the 411 on Cheeks Chicken And Waffles. This place used to be sub par at best. The service was horrible and the food was usually overcooked or undercooked. It was a roll of the dice... But it is under new owners and I keep hearing how they do amazing things for the community so I decided I'd give them another shot.
So today of all days (2/8/26, Superbowl Sunday) I went in on a whim at about 1:00. No reserved pick up time or anything. Just walked in and placed my order. About 20 minutes later I get my order. Two 16 piece orders. I spoke with the owner briefly and he is an amazing guy. Amazing customer service, and just a really nice person. They give all profits from the chips to local charities as well as other things that I've seen and heard of. As a member of a fraternal organization that does a lot of charity work that meant a lot.. back to the food.. OMG IT WAS AMAZING!! The wings are huuuggggeeee! The buffalo is good, it has a nice flavor. Not just like red hot tossed over wings. Then the garlic Parmesan are equally awesome! Just amazing flavor!! So there it is.. ginormous wings cooked correctly with amazing flavor. With amazing customer service and your supporting a local family owned business that gives back to the community.. it's a win win all around!! I went on on what is probably one of the busiest days of the year for anyone who sells chicken wings and I had an amazing product with amazing customer service at a decent price. I will absolutely be going back soon. I highly recommend that you do yourself a favor and get down there and get some wings. To the Ahmed family, thank you for all you do and for an amazing product with amazing customer service. I can't wait to come back down and try other flavors.”

“Why would you put a new bartender on ALONE on a Friday night?!? We were finished with our appetizers before our drinks even came. Very poor staffing choice.”

“Shout out to Thomas Smokey Pit Stop. The food is absolutely incredible, perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of flavor. You can really tell everything is made with care and passion. the sides are delicious, and the portions are generous.”

“The best quesitos I ever had .. and I grew up in Puerto Rico. Service is amazing. The cakes are not only good but the prices are the super amazing. One gets a win , win, win !!! Everything is great 👍”

“First time going here today and me and my son enjoyed our meal. Food is good and fresh. Its made right in front of u also. Great service from Torey who is so sweet, and kind.very clean too. I will go back there again. Bye bye to Chipotle. Hello to Fresca.”

“Absolutely the best frozen yogurt I’ve ever had! I love that they offer low fat and sugar free options, perfect if you’re looking for something lighter. The cheesecake flavor was my favorite, so creamy and delicious! Tons of topping choices too. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“This may have been the best service I've ever gotten at a Chick-Fil-A ever, and CFA has great service in general. Jazzmalie brought our order to us in the drive thru line, read through our entire order to make sure they got everything, gave us wet wipes (so thoughtful!), and even grabbed some extra salt packets for us when we asked. Absolutely amazing experience and we appreciated the extra effort and personal touch! Thank you!”

“I had my first Amazing Ackee experience years ago at the Ellington Farmer’s Market, and I’m still enjoying alllll their offerings today. What can I say about all the great food?? Well, I’ve never not liked anything, and I thoroughly enjoy anything I’ve eaten. I love to stock up on the patties especially. As a busy vegetarian, they’re a great way to have a satisfying, healthy, quick meal any day. Beautiful people, beautiful food! In fact, I’m going to stock up again soon. Highly recommend you try them out!”

“Excellent food, innovative menu, & very reasonable prices. Also the "Taqueria" setup where you are prompted to build your own. Yeah like Moe's & Chipotle but this place is a million times better & a genuine family owned hard working small busuness.”

“You seem to be among the growing number of establishments that asked for a tip for takeout service. Whether I ate in or takeout I still ordered my food at a counter I'm not being served by a waiter or waitress. I work in retail like many others don't get tips either.
Testimonials on your cup are 10 years old.”

“Highly recommended spot for the crispy orange chicken! Rice and low main are good but the chicken is best if found in the area besides wok on the wild side by the airport!”

“Food was way better than expected for a movie theater restaurant. However, the fries were over cooked and the chicken was nothing special. I wouldn’t stop if I wasn’t going to the movies. Everything came out fast and the waitress was great.”

“Based on today’s experience (lunchtime on a Sunday) my pizza slice was freshly made. I was amazed at how soft the crust was! Had a pleasant experience with both workers behind the counter- both friendly and helpful. Keep up the good work guys ?”

“excellent pizza, friendly staff and love the owner!”

“Swung by today on a whim, and so glad that I did! Food was fresh and tasty - employees were kind and helpful. We enjoyed everything we tried and we cannot wait to be back.”

“Friendly staff, good portions and changing breakfast specials. Nice atmosphere. I go here 3x a week.”

“Dinner with my daughter and grandkids”

“Great environment. you can tell there is an adjustment here from management.”

“Ordered a delivery for two of us which was actually a lot of food, and drink too. We cannot say thank you enough for the kindness of the staff members who prepared our order tonight. It was packed carefully, and nothing was forgotten. The beverages were delicious as was the temperature and deliciousness of the food. We want to encourage everyone to contact this KFC too. Thank you KFC for being so careful and thoughtful and Happy Holidays to all of you !! God Bless!”

“I think it's a grate Restaurant and the service is excellent. The food is on time and it's in a nice calm area.”

“I visit this shop twice a week. The staff always messes us my order. Decaf, light, 5 Splenda, with caramel. Yet every time it gets messed up somehow. Today I ordered a toasted multigrain bagel with cream cheese. What I received was a multigrain bagel with butter, which had melted and proceeded to run down the front of my new shirt, leaving four nice big grease stains. When I went in to get this corrected I was met by a manager who reminded me everybody makes mistakes. Upon ordering, a print out is generated to help the employees with the orders. I would imagine these are used in creating the orders. My order for today was $11.89. I gave the young man a ten and two singles. He told me I didn’t give him enough money. I told him to please count it. He looked at me like I was from another planet. I think I should have been treated a bit better in this shop. Gee, I am sorry, we will fix this for you. Your brand is represented here, and I love your coffee, but you need to spend, perhaps, a little more time in customer service and how to treat customers. I can always get my coffee somewhere else.”

“My favorite spot to hang out. Been around a long time, very consistent.”

“YUMMY FOOD AND GREAT SERVICE =)”

“we have eaten here many, many times... the service, food, and waitstaff are all excellent and we will be back again in the next few weeks..”

“Came to the Angry Egg this morning for some coffee and a quick breakfast and it was fast and delicious! Service was excellent and everyone was super friendly! I got the French vanilla coffee and the 2 egg breakfast, it was perfect! Thank you! I’ll be back!”

“I came in yesterday Sunday and they where pretty mush closing but the lady outside having her break came up to me and my wife and told us the grill will be closing soon a s they just added a Panni press with amazing sandwichs ready to go omg we ended up getting the buffalo chicken and chicken salad warp was amazing staff was so nice they even gave us a $1 off for next time check them out 150 center st Manchester and a big thank you to the girl with the nicw arm tattoos she was the best we will definitely be coming back”

“Excellent food, and Briyani is so delicious. If you want to eat dessert after food, try double ka meetha. It is the best dessert that you won't find anywhere.”

“So, Metro Bis is a “fixture “ in town, huh? So was I told the same thing at one point concerning me. So let’s see how that goes!”

“Excellent ice cream, i just brought the coconut and birthday flavor. I liked it and would buy it again.”

“This young man Andrew is amazing, truly Amazing. I was pleased with his food, charm, mannerism and his staff. The food was excellent. He sold over 2500 empanadas today.

“Upon arriving we asked if they had gluten free items on their menu. They Had. It was a separate menu but it was identical to the original with modifications for gluten free on ALL items they served. Our meal was terrific. Our server Jenny was outstanding, attentive and very personable. The managers took special attention in bringing out my meals themselves. We really appreciated the effort and experience we had at this restaurant. Highly Recomended. Brian G”

“Lot's of option, say what not! American, Chinese, seafood, seafood,sushi bar,live hibachi,desert. Tried a few. Will go get some some more again. Price seems okay for this amount of food. Customer service was great. Taste is worth of going there. Just was a bit disappointed that they sale take away by pound, which should not be buffe style. Otherwise 10/10 ⭐”

“This is strictly for Karen. Honestly, normally the service that I get at IHOP is slow and terrible. Today it was great thanks to Karen. She got my order right away and was very friendly. Thank you Karen! I really hope the rest of the staff follows your example.”

“I had a wonderful time at Sos fried chicken The dishes were outstanding, especially the shawarma which was absolutely delicious, and the staff provided excellent service. I will definitely be coming back!😊❤️”

“📅 August 23, 2025 WRITTEN REVIEW Big Al’s Reel Reviews - Ep. 153 Filomena’s On Main Street Town of Manchester, CT 🌆 Atmosphere & Vibe We walked into a great atmosphere - families around, a warm and friendly vibe, and a beautiful interior. The crowd was very diverse, which added to the positive energy and sense of community in the room. Inside, it looks amazing, making it a comfortable and enjoyable place to settle in for dinner. Overall, the atmosphere here was top-notch. 👥 Service Our server was Joel, and he set the tone right away. He was very nice, attentive, and friendly, checking in often and making sure we had everything we needed. The whole staff gave off that same positive, welcoming energy. 🍽️ What I Ordered 1️⃣ Buffalo Wings- Hot (10 pcs) - $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Amazing, top-notch chicken wings. Cooked just right and full of flavor. 2️⃣ Buffalo Wings- House Blend (10 pcs)- $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Same deal - perfectly done, flavorful, and backed up by a delicious blue cheese dressing. 3️⃣ Calamari (Appetizer) - $16 👍🏾 👉🏾 Crispy, fresh, and cooked to perfection. Absolutely amazing. 4️⃣ Hot Honey Chicken Deluxe Sandwich (with fries) - $18 👍🏾 👉🏾 Solid sandwich. Chicken was juicy, hot honey brought the right kick, and the fries were on point. A very good plate. 5️⃣ Chicken Parmesan - $23 👍🏾 👉🏾 Delicious and well executed. The chicken was tender and soft - I could cut it easily with my fork. The sauce was flavorful, the mozzarella melted perfectly, and the whole dish came together beautifully. A great chicken parm that earns a strong thumbs up. 📝 Final Take Filomena’s on Main Street in Manchester absolutely delivered. From the welcoming and diverse atmosphere to the friendly service from Joel, everything lined up for a great night. The wings and calamari were excellent, the sandwich solid, and the chicken parmesan was a standout. And after tonight, I can finally say it… I like Filomena’s. …on Main Street. 😏 ☝🏾❤️ - Big Al Mayo “Always keeping it Real to Reel.””

“It feels like being home. Cozy and welcoming. The coffee and food is out of this world delicious.”

“The food was freshly prepared unlike the drive thru cashier's customer service skills. I ordered without stating I had a coupon she informed me I would need to reorder at the drive thru kiosk.
Although annoyed I circled back through the drive thru here's the kicker I forget to mention the coupon again, same cashier takes the coupon at the window.
What a waste of time and my Gas at $3.59 a gallon. Ugh”

“I love McDonald's. I grew up on it. And I have the same standards I'm sure Corporate has. On this visit, everyone's personality shined. The smiles were genuine, the politeness was natural. I had my food in my hand so quickly, I couldn't believe it. It was hot and tasted amazing. So what cost a star? The only thing wrong was my sandwich, the new Big Arch, seemed hastily assembled and was--I hate to say this--crooked. This hung out on this side, that hung out on that side. And because of that, it tried to fall into my lap while I was eating it. That's the only complaint. Don't sacrifice quality for speed; I don't mind waiting a few extra seconds for a sandwich assembled with more care.”

“First-time customers at Ryan’s Sports Bar and we were seriously impressed. The atmosphere was welcoming and fun from the moment we walked in. The French Onion soup was absolutely amazing, the wings were cooked to perfection, and the shredded pork nachos were packed with flavor. And those Margaritas… on point! We had a great experience all around and would definitely recommend 👍🏼👍🏼”

“I had a wonderful time at Sos fried chicken The dishes were outstanding, especially the shawarma which was absolutely delicious, and the staff provided excellent service. I will definitely be coming back!😊❤️”

“I love the sandwich his wife was so sweet even the owner cool guy I will be going back to try there mini pancakes bowl i had ham and cheese cheese was so melted into the ham yu will be seeing me a lot”

“Highly Recommended. I have ordered catering from them for 15 people. Food was amazing. Beef Biriyani was authentic Bangladeshi Tehari style which is rare to find and cooking was really good. On top, when i communicated with the management to place the order they were very cooperative cordial and easy to work with, the service received today made me even more confident about the restaurant in the future.”

“The best masala dosa in the city—I literally crave it. I’ve tried masala dosa from other local Indian spots, but Sri Balaji is best out of all— fresh, crisp and served with delicious sambhar & chutneys. I’m giving all 5 stars only because, out of the five times I’ve ordered, they truly took care of my orders.”

“Pizza Mia has excellent food! The owner and staff are so nice and welcoming. I’ve always loved their food for eating in or taking out. Now they serve an excellent breakfast. You must go there for yourself and try it. You won’t be disappointed. Easy parking in the back. Yum!!!!”

“I Went to This place to eat, And My First time eating here,The Food was Good,The Alcapurias are Really Good,The Mofongo Order w Chicharrones was Good,The Chivo Meat was not good,Too much Chivo taste I don't like it,But The rest of the food was good..”

“Nice tasting chicken fingers. Juicy nice coating on the outside. Simple place, simple menu. Not a fan of the dipping sauce. Wish they had other options for dipping sauce. Even has nice printed napkins with the logo on it.”

“These kids do a super job! The pizza was prepared & cooked perfectly, & it was delicious! It was on time & ready to pickup. In regards to the bad reviews I see here, honestly people, get over yourselves. Just because your breadsticks were cold or you happened to get a young counter person who is training & messed up your order, it surely isn't the end of the world. Also, if you're that scared about germs, & covid, please do the world a favor & stay home, nobody needs your hysterical, negative vibes. This location makes great pizza & I would go back for more.”
