“Wonderfully fresh delicious seafood. Generous portions and gracious owner. She gave us a sampling of all their clam chowders and shrimp cocktail as we waited (not very long) for our whole belly clam dinner and scallop dinner. Perfect and the clams were the biggest anywhere including the coastline restaurants. Do not put off a visit…it won’t be your last.“

“Best Chinese food in Cromwell!!! Love the friendliness of the people and the food is fresh and delicious. We order here at least once a week. My favorite dish is the Singapore Mei Fun with extra curry. My dad is a picky eater, but he absolutely looks forward to his weekly orders of Beef & Broccoli and House Fried Rice.

This place is great for takeout. Most orders are ready within 20 minutes of placement. While I have never dined in, tables are available to enjoy your meal. I would not expect a full waiter/waitress experience if you do decide to dine-in.“

“Fantastic clam chowder! Generous portion sizes that leave you feeling satisfied. Very friendly staff and service. We ordered Christmas platters that were perfect for our family celebration. 10/10 recommend“

“Food was very good! Garlic knots were delicious!“

“*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.“

“Excellent pizza. Thin crust, good red sauce, tasty toppings. Great central location too!“

“Excellent food.. great gluten free options! Placed an order for takeout today and received a surprise dessert! Little do you know, I ordered this meal for my mom who spent the entire day in the hospital with my grandma. Seeing this little extra treat after a very busy weekend just reminded me of why I love this restaurant. Thank you for being so good to your patrons. Will continue to recommend this restaurant to all. 🫶🏼“

“Last week my family and i had dinner at Flair which is one of our favorite restaurants and Hector the owner told us his family bought Fratellis. 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“

“Food is really good, but even single time I go, I call in to see if my absolute FAVORITE person is there, and that would be Taylor, she is so sweet, kind, and talkative, but at the same time, not annoying at all, and when it comes to drinks, bartending is obviously her thing! So next time you go, make sure you ask for Taylor, but if you’re a regular, you already know how nice she is, but for those who are looking for a good place to eat or get a little tipsy, see if Taylor is there, also a quick little secret is to TIP GOOD! But yet again, make sure the best bartender is around, but don’t worry, the others are good too, if I could leave Taylor a 10 out of 5 star rating, I would!“

“Well the atmosphere is ok even thought it looks like from the ghetto still that fried chicken taste real good which went last week didn’t know there was one in Bristol. Love the biscuit and in the future will go again. The owner was very professional. The lady behind the counter was nice but needs to smile at least for the customers. But other than that it was too delicious!“

“Delicious food! Great service!“

“Homemade EVERYTHING!!! The restaurant and staff that make you feel like you’re home!!! My favorite hometown diner!“

“I can’t decide what’s better.. the food or the customer service.“

“I love their bento box. Especially the beef or chicken teriyaki bento box. It comes with delicious teriyaki meat with a bit of vegetables, a side of white rice, shumai, sushi (California roll) with a side of ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce, a side salad, and a bowl of miso soup. You get a little bit of everything, so you definitely can't go wrong with it!
Everyone is always very kind, pleasant, and welcoming, and give great service.“

“Always a great meal with good company, my favorite local go-to.“

“Very clean“

“The food was absolutely perfect! All white meat in the sweet and sour chicken. The pork fried rice is delicious, and the pork is good and plenty! They also have the best egg rolls of anywhere I've gone! I go back at least once a month!

Vegetarian options: The broccoli in garlic sauce with veggie fried rice combo is phenomenal, if you need a vegetarian option!“

“So far, I’ve only had the chicken and broccoli which is very good, but I have to say the real star out of the two items I ordered was the hot and sour soup! They’re hot and Sour soup is the best I’ve had in the area hands-down however it is very spicy so if you don’t want it spicy, ask them to alter it. Update I tried the curry shrimp and it was the best curry shrimp dish of any Chinese food establishment I’ve ever been to.“

“This place has the BEST mac & cheese!! So much so that it was my first pregnancy craving last year. 😂 super creamy, flavorful, and a huge portion that lasts me at least 2 meals!!“

“My first time here was a month ago having dinner in the steakhouse! If I could give 10 stars for the food, servers and atmosphere I would have. Last night we returned to dine in the tavern, food was absolutely delicious, Mariah our server greeted us with a friendly warm smile that she never lost each time she came to our table. We will be back very soon to sit on the balcony this time ! CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!“
