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

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

“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 is great, atmosphere is nice, service sometimes spotty, but Brandon is the man who makes up for it! To be transparent, I had been waiting around about 30 minutes past when my food was supposed to be ready to get my order, but Brandon was the only person on the staff who had checked in with me and apologized for the mistake, WHILE he was already busy working on his own things. I wasn’t even trying to bust chops, but I was told another 8 minutes and it became another 20 for the pizza, and then my pasta was forgotten when the other staff initially handed me my order. Brandon held it down and was able to get complimentary carrot cake for my girlfriend because of the long wait, which I appreciated. Check in with Brandon, he’s great along with his service, and so is the food.“

“My wife and I finally got to try HRP. We actually dined there. We tried their famous spinach specialty pizza. It did not disappoint!! One of the best pizzas I’ve had! Make sure to bring your appetite because the large pizza is massive! The people are very friendly! We will be back!“

“Kids had a great time!!!!“

“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 ?“

“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!“

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