“We come here almost once a week with our two elementary schoolers. The staff is always kind, solicitous, and patient, even when one of our kids wants a number of "customizations" to her mac and cheese order. We always look to find a table near the one tv that isn't playing sports but rather is playing funny videos to keep our kids engaged so that the adults can catch up on our days. The cocktails are good and filled to the rim. And, we always appreciate the rotating specials menu so there is something new to try each time for the adults. Can't ask for much more in a go-to neighborhood restaurant.“
“An oldie but a goodie! I first went to this place in 2013 and really liked it, and recently checked it out and still think it’s great. Love the ambiance, the food is fun and adventurous and the service is attentive. One of my favorite spots in downtown New Haven!“
“We recently had the pleasure of getting a bite to eat at the Country Corner and it became more than just lunch. I was up in Bethany before COVID and had a wonderful meal then but upon walking in this time I was reminded that when you come here you will be welcomed like family. Between Cassie, Sandy and Moe they run a wonderful place. The place is beautiful and the food really does stand out. I had a Chef Salad which I was able to eat all of it. It was very big and very fresh. I truly enjoyed it. My wife ordered a Pistachio cake for dessert. ( I don't care for Pistachio) Well I ate half of hers. It was AMAZING! I was told it was made by Mom. She is so incredibly talented! You really could taste the love. I was told that Sam (dad) passed away a few years ago. You can clearly see and feel that his spirit lives on through their love and pride for this place. I look forward to returning and seeing especially what Mom has baked. ❤️??“
“Dangle's is a black-owned business in well established downtown. The restaurant is nice and quaint giving you the feels of being connected to the owner and staff. The food was delicious - delivered hot and fresh. The staff were friendly and accommodating. It behooves anyone reading this to try this place out. You won't be disappointed.“
“Easily accessible and in walking distance of the New Haven green. Got brussels sprouts and a large pizza. The brussels sprouts were cut and fried in a unique way I had never seen before but it was quite delicious. The pizza was also quite good although a little too much garlic for my tastes (and i love garlic)“
“Literally just left after having the best lunch! My fiancé and I are new to CT and we’ve been desperately trying to find a cool spot with great food. We got the miso and lime mussels and poutine with our beers and it was SO GOOD! Simple but delicious. The portions were huge. The service was great and the beer was even better! So happy to finally find a great restaurant close to home!“
“I 100% recommend this is the best place for dinner I've ever went to and trust me. I've been to a lot of places their service was just amazing, and their food was just out of this world, especially what they give you at the end this Oreo purée it is just such a good choice for dessert, if you want to go to a nice restaurant with very hot food and very good service I hundred percent recommend this restaurant. I am a very satisfied customer.“
“2024) Even better service than when I first visited this diner. They serve all of the classic diner offerings. They have plenty of space for gatherings, meetings, etc. Plenty of parking spaces too.2017) I live nearby and I've wanted to try this place. It has easy access to I91. The food presentation and quality was great. The service was also good.“
“Yesterday we celebrated my daughter’s baptism at home, and Cody was simply amazing through the whole thing! She answered all my questions as well as set up decorations I had and provided great service throughout my event! The food was delicious and all came out hot and together for our 25 person party! The Space was separated by three large bookcases so it felt private enough, but wasn’t completely secluded. We had an amazing day and will definitely come back to home for our next events! I’m“
“Nestled away from North Main Street is this hidden gem of Italian food. Their marinara sauce is delicious and their portions are just right. It can be a little noisy but it's a good dinner spot for the area ( even if it may take a minute to find parking don't let that deter you.)Parking: Not a lot of parking but worth the effort.“
“Great place. I’ll have to make it a point to work it into the calendar more. Beer was excellent. 24 different beers on tap I believe. Burger was great - big and delicious and my wife enjoyed her wrap. Bonus points for the King Diamond and Rob Halford photos on the wall. I didn’t get to check out all the prints. Cool spot. We’ll be back.“
“Hidden gem on the water in a boat storage yard. We went for brunch Food was fresh and well prepared staff was pleasant, attentive and well informed. I travel with a vegan and a vegetarian this place was perfect for us lots of options for all. The layered dip had just the right amount of heat with great flavor highly recommend sharing this dish to start Avocado toast was brought to another level with a pesto base under the avocado and tomato’s with a balsamic drizzle on top. Cali burrito has the fries inside tasty and unexpected. Lobster roll perfectly grilled bun heaped with fresh lobster meat they happily substituted broccolini for the fries that usually come with it. Looking forward to returning and trying the outdoor dining area looks great was a bit cold and dreary outsideVegetarian options: Great vegetarian and vegan selections the layered dip is a must try. Everything was super fresh“
“We just did take out and it was great! My husband had the salmon, I had the short ribs and we got an order of the hush puppies. Everything was hot and tasted great at home. We also had an order of the cheesecake egg rolls which were a great sweet treat. Definitely will be back!“
“Honestly can't beat how delicious the burgers are, and for such a fair price..! We used to order from Prime 16, but Christopher Martins does burgers better. They seem to have a better handle of how to actually cook them right, so we have switched!4/5 on atmosphere but only due to inside smelling strongly of beer (fair enough). Attaching a picture of the cajun fries – absolutely delicious. The onion rings are a little different (think "shoestring" onion rings) but very tasty“
“Not sure why but we hadn't been here in years. Last night's dinner was fantastic in terms of the staff, the food, the service, the environment, everything. Definitely will be back on a more regular basis. Cannot recommend the food quality enough.“
“This is one of the top three bars in New Haven. The owner takes pride in sourcing the most interesting and delicious wines. The ambience is mystical, intimate and charming, all at the same time and the music selection is always on point. Additionally, take a look at their menu as they have tons of tasty offerings on small plates. This is a must try!“
“A tiny take out only shop. There is no place to sit, no WC. The salad is very good though, fresh, ample size, great mix of vegetables and lettuce, flat bread, dressings. The drink menu is very good as well.The place is expensive, though. 12$ for a salad is a bit high. 6$ for a drink. But the food is healthy and tastes quite good.Service was fast, but a line forms faster. Expect to wait. Service was terse, not friendly, but that might be the pressure of the line.They is only street parking. The place is close to Yale, so there is lots of traffic. Order ahead if you can.“
“Nice clean place, very good service and delicious food with good price.Coffee could have been a bit stronger ???Vegetarian options: I didn't look at the vegetarian option, but I'm sure there's plenty if you just don't order meat ??♂️Kid-friendliness: I saw parents with kids eating there. They have tall chairs for kids.“
“I love this place! Papi is the sweetest and so is the lady that works there! I’ve been coming to this restaurant for about 15 years. Papi has seen my children grow from little kids to full grown adults!! Hidden Gem I tell you!! I recommend it 100% I promise, you will come back!! :)“
“South Bay is a favorite with very good food & drinks, attentive service, and a convenient location in downtown New Haven near parking and theaters. The ambience is generally great but I gave it only 3 stars due to the extreme closeness of the tables and restroom shortage. But we still love it and will be back.“
“This was hands down one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. My special guy's father is friend's with the owner & we brought family visiting from Italy for dinner. This was my first time trying the food, everything was delicious, portions huge. You can order larger, family style meals several days in advance & it's BYOB (love it). I was very surprised by everything as the outside along with the name of the restaurant doesn't remotely sound like an Italian restaurant. I would definitely take the ride just to eat here again.“
“We had a great time at this fantastic diner! We stopped in while at the flea market and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service. I had the best pancakes I’ve had in a long time! They were huge and fluffy with just the right amount of crisp on the outside. The very helpful and kind waitress made my delicious coffee perfectly. Others in our group ordered the grilled cheese with tomato, the hamburger platter, the steak burrito, the parmesan wings, and a bagel with cream cheese. It is a tough group to impress and they were all very happy! My husband wants to come back ASAP for more wings! Very friendly family owned diner that made us out of towners feel very welcomed!“
“Super cute place in New Haven CT. Feels like home. With home cooking.Owen and I ordered pulled pork platter, We both got the sweet potato casserole. I personally got the collard greens and he got the mashed potatoes.No complaints from either of usDash got the chicken and waffles . They looked so amazing they also had fresh strawberriesAgain no complaintsIf I ever get back down to New Haven I would definitely from the ground revisit here.“
“I’m sure this is a nice place otherwise, but when your tone of voice screams “peon” with every breath, you really need to snap out of it. After watching several people peon voice all over a lady sitting on the stoop who just learned that her sister died, I’m personally over whatever Skull and Bones caché you think you’re engendering as you forget that you have no idea what other people are going through.“
“The food was great. Beet salad was fresh and well dressed. The honeynut squash ravioli and the pappardelle Bolognese were delicious and the portion was just right. The service was very attentive, although a bit too much and to the point of being somewhat intrusive. The server seemed to rush us to order when we were not ready and were at the table every few minutes filling our water. They replaced the silverware from the 1st course which was again, very attentive and were there right away if we needed anything. Also didn't like that a drink was more expensive in the restaurant than it was at the bar upstairs. That seemed odd.“
“Wow! Was heading elsewhere and saw this little place. Small place but what amazing food! I had the Hungry Man sandwich. All meat cheese and potatoes on bread! It was very filling!! The staff were very friendly the place is very clean. Haven't been? I highly recommend it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“
“Great family restaurant. It is my favorite diner in CT. Great service, food, people and clean.Vegetarian options: The NancyDietary restrictions: They have a healthy section unheard of in most establishments. They are conscious of the obesity epidemic which I appreciate.“
“The bartender, Stefan, THE BEST. His personality is a vibrant concoction of charm and wit, infusing the bar with an infectious energy. With each pour, he serves not just drinks but a side of banter that keeps patrons engaged and entertained. A maestro behind the bar and a captivating host, his charisma turns every visit into a memorable experience. You'll find yourself not just savoring the wine he ever so carefully selected, but also savoring the delightful moments he effortlessly crafts throughout the evening. This place is a gem!“
“My husband and I enjoyed a delicious breakfast overlooking the beautiful green and Yale university from the hotels 19th floor restaurant. Christine was our sweet and efficient server, she even looked up exactly who John Davenport was and when as cofounder of New Haven. We’ll be back!Parking: The restaurant stamped your parking ticket making it free!“
“Nice place for a morning. Great food, good service, good atmosphere. I ordered a hot chocolate (not a coffee guy), a Belgium waffle, and a side of bacon. All of that food was amazing and I highly recommend this place if you're bored and hungry in the morning! Good cafe!“
