“Very excited and pleased to see this wonderful restaurant rebrand to be more seafood based. All of their product prior to the change was incredibly fresh, well prepared, and delicious. This continues into their new identity!!

Highly recommend!!

Only big recommendation for the establishment is to include more sauce in each order.. as a lover of seafood boils and a friend of many other boil lovers.. we know this is often the most expensive part of the endeavor but we LIVE for that juicy sauce!! ..

Thank you for the change and addition to route 5 strip!

Every seafood boil lover MUST try!“

“We hosted my daughter’s first birthday party at Morava. From initial contact and choosing a menu through clean up on the day, every step of the process was smooth and stress free. It was a huge relief to know we found a space that could accommodate our group of about 20 people and also handle the food and most other supplies, rather than having to work with multiple different vendors. The food, as always, was delicious and the staff was helpful and attentive. I strongly recommend Morava, whether you’re looking for a local restaurant to add to your regular dining rotation or a place to host a special event.“

“Finally made it here after years of driving by.

We started with a Pineapple jalapeño margarita while we snacked on some coconut shrimp. We also got barbecue ribs with cheesy potatoes, and the meat literally fell off the bone, everything was so juicy and tender. The Cajun bacon chicken wrap was packed with chicken, bacon and lettuce, not your typical wrap where the end is just breading. Very filling and delicious

We came on a Saturday during the Berlin fair so there was no one there. We sat outside to enjoy the trains passing and service was prompt for the one server working

“*update: Bar Experience. The bar was very well equipped, the bartender ( Alex) was very attentive, knowledgeable and efficient. Carlos made sure everyone was tended and had what they needed. Great teamwork behind the bar. The food Experience at the bar matched that of the dining room experience. The bar and restaurant was busy but Alex, Carlos and all of the staff hustled and the food was hot, tasted wonderful and of course left me wanting desert. If you have not visited this establishment, you are missing out. Everything from their service, their extensive drink menu, their delicious "tapas", their creative specials, their daily menu to their tray of deserts is an experience. Come on by, I promise you will not be disappointed. Check out the updated Bar Experience pictures. A hidden Gem in downtown Southington. This is our second visit here and we are absolutely in love with this restaurant. From its eclectic decor, super attentive staff to its fabulously fantastic tasting tapas and entrees....where do I truly begin. The owners ( Rob, is always stopping by to say hello and check in) are visible and make you feel welcomed, my waitress Alyssa was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The food was delicious. The pictures below do no justice to the flavors that pop as you are eating them. You can't wait to come back. Oh I almost forgot....the drinks....the best Sangrias!!!! Yes! Sangrias...Sangrias!! You must stop by.“

We said we would come in this week snd try out the new restaurant. We had told Hector the we loved clams casino and he remembered and even though they were not on the menu he brought some to us from Flair. They were excellent. We also had the best chicken dish ever which was called chicken fratellis. It was very obvious that Hector and his family bent over backwards to ensure our experience was amazing and.......it was. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to have a fabulous meal and feel that you are appreciated. Thank again“
