Manager didn’t want to hear me out, she told me not to come back after explaining to her that the service was nonexistent, bar staff prioritized serving his girlfriend than a big group of people celebrating a birthday. As a whole group of restaurant industry customers, we were appalled to see that they automatically add 20% gratuity to each check. When addressing the customer service , I was rudely taken aback by the managers response.

Really good time at Pompano. Loved it when it was Evaritos and excited to explore the new seafood menu. We sat up on the roof for dinner and were concerned about being too hot. They got a great breeze and the roof top is also sheltered from the sun in the evening by the building behind it. Tuna nachos with the taro chips were the highlight. My hubbie and I both got lobster rolls with butter (CT style). The lobster was good but my roll was a little too charred and I ended up not eating the roll, only the lobster. For $36 for a lobster roll you expect perfection which is the only reason I did not give them 5 stars. Will go back and try one of the other entrees.

Would not recommend eating here or at any restaurant Christian Burns owns. I was assaulted in the elevator of this space back when it was Evaritos. He was completely heartless and was not compliant with police to protect the attackers who he and the bar staff knew. Protect yourself and your family and do not visit this establishment.

What a fantastic place! First, the parking is easy which is usually hard to come by in SoNo. Second, the cocktails and food were amazing. Service was warm and friendly and we had drinks on the rooftop which have great views of downtown Norwalk and the Sound. Highly recommend!

My first experience was great. The Lump Crab and Shrimp Salad was a fantastic surprise. The Calamari was incredible. The rooftop gives great views of the city and waterfront.

The rooftop was beautiful! However the food was limited and subpar, it felt like they were trying to give a fancy vibe but the food was just cheap and not good. So disappointing. Wouldn’t come back.

I had high expectations for this place and I was very let down. The menu on the rooftop is completely different and limited from the menu downstairs. Weird… the drinks are also very bad. The food quality is comparable to my college dining experience. The prices they charge for this mediocre food is ridiculous. Also the “view” is dirty old buildings and trains passing by. Don’t waste your time.

1st time for a date night reservation As soon as you walk in the door you r greeted beautifully with an Italian that knows how to pronounce your name beautifully Our waiter was very attentive to our needs with apps dinner veggies deserts. The owner came by the table a couple of times with a very informative conversation! My first time dining experience was great all around! Definitely making a Reservation Again because aside from the great menu crab salad app steak tar tar and red snapper dinner was so tasty and we shared all courses definitely a place you could be drawn to especially when the roof top opens and that seats 100.

Highly reccomend this new spot! Everything we ordered was phenomenal. You have to order the sardines appetizer and Sole entree. Also the cocktails and mocktails were delicious. Was perfect for a date night and will definitely come back for other special occasions. Definitely note the rooftop has a diff menu but is a good stop for a drink before dining.

Very pleasant surprise. Menu was interesting and well presented. Sushi Rolls were interesting but the main menu is worth the trip. One might argue that 3 sea scallops for 42 dollars is a bit skimpy, but it was made well. Rooftop is more casual and lighter faire. This also comes with a younger and trendier client. A bit noisy on the roof which adds to the vibrant nature. In the main dining room, the feeling was a nice relaxed vibe with a sound level able to keep up a conversation. Lovely seafood, made well with some interest. A suggestion: Some interesting Cocktails off the beaten path. A real step up for the Norwalk food scene.
We had a great experience at The Pompano! The service was great and the food was great! A liiiiittle on the pricey side but that is to be expected as it is a predominantly seafood menu. A few callouts included the lobster mac and cheese, the signature sushi rolls and the salmon. Creme brulee and Key Lime Pie were also very good! Highly recommend checking this restaurant at.
We rate this new restaurant a perfect 10 out of 10. The hostess was exceptionally friendly, and the ambience, service, and food were all outstanding. Enrique, our bartender and waiter, was exceptional; his recommendations were spot on, and he was incredibly attentive despite having other customers. We look forward to dining here again.

I really hope this place does well and stays for a long time bc it's so cute, classy, great food/drinks and service was good and professional. My husband and I got the hamachi sushi and tuna tartar to start and For dinner I had the Sole and he had the steak. Everything was so good and we'll definitely be back. A little on the pricey side but expected for the area and type of restaurant.
