27 Best Bar & Grill near Newington

“I've been going to TJ's for a little over a year now and have always had the best service. Their food is always made fresh to order and never disappoints. (The garlic parmesan wings, pizza and shroom burger are my favorites so far). This place has great vibes and I'll continue to visit until I no longer can't.“

“This bar is a fun place to go to. They have some good food. I've seen bands play here.
It is a little on the small side for that, but they work hard to make it happen. The staff here does a good job.
The area is nice.“

“Food was good had the salmon and grits. I ordered over the phone for pick up the hostess seemed pretty short tempered, I asked if I could sub the salmon for shrimp being as they have shrimp on the menu anyways and she said no, I found that weird and disappointing…but at least the taste is there.“

“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

Parking: Limited number of free parking spots (8 or so) all other parking must be paid for through the station parking lot“

“Great experience hosting a party at the Pavilion today! Beautiful location, excellent food & service.“

“The food is excellent. The owner really puts love into her handmade dishes. Fresh ingredients make this spot a hidden gem. Try the shrimp rolls and the fried rice. Banging!!! Especially in a late night where all the restaurants are closed she is still cooking. ❤️ They have a juke box that has a good selection of pretty much anything. You can hear anything from Mobb Deep to the Eagles at this bar. Nice space to host a catered gathering as well as a small outdoor patio to enjoy the evening. Super cute spot. The bartenders could use an upgrade, as our order got forgotten for quite some time and there were quite a few forgetful moments but I guess it comes with the ambience. Try em...“

“I have been going to Franks on and off for 15 years. (My father used to lived above the bad in the 1970s but that is a story for another time). This place is quiet and quick service. The staff is also appealing to the eye. I highly recommend.“

“Outdoor dining is delightful.“

“I recently hosted my son’s 1st birthday party of over 100 guests at Hawks Landing. Jeff & Paul were absolutely amazing to work with. I work with a lot of different venues all over Connecticut with my event planning business and this place is truly next level. The attention to detail and the way the entire staff works together to really give you everything you envision is hard to come by. Paul and I designed the entire event menu from scratch. Anything I asked for, he made happen! My biggest concern was that I didn’t want guests waiting too long for food but I also didn’t want a sit down meal. Paul suggested we do multiple food stations around the space so nobody was waiting. He also had his staff start with passed appetizers while everyone was mingling. It worked out PERFECTLY. My theme was “Jack’s 1st rodeo.” Paul even offered to request that his staff wear jeans and a flannel shirt to match my vibe. Every single member of the Hawks team had such a hand in perfecting the day. My guests are still raving about the food and experience more than a month later. They really made the day so special and I couldn’t be more grateful to Jeff, Paul and the entire Hawks team! ♥️“

“Had a nice snack lunch there with a friend today, always tasty and very reasonably priced. Ellie and the chaps behind the counter gave excellent service and the atmosphere is always friendly.“

“Awesome place to gather with friends and family for ANY occasion! The food, rental price, staff and environment is what makes this place to be #1 and I will definitely rent again!“

“Rasta Pasta on point. Presentation of food speak for itself. The tasting of rasta pasta has ingredients that is well let's just say open your smell senses and taste buds. Large portion but it's worth it“

“The staff is amazing so friendly and always welcoming. Always know how to make you feel part of the family!!!!! Shout out to Rae Rae my bartender/confidante lol 😉“

“Great service, very good customer service.“

“It's a great place to get together for drinks and good food. OR To have a party of any kind. They do parties well. Matty D's is definitely a place to put at the top of your list.“
