Amazing! This is one of my favorite spots and it's close by. The only thing I order every time I go there are the Goat Cheese Balls, well because I am in love with them, however I try to order something new every time I go and am never disappointed. They also change up the menu from time to time with an appropriate amount of time in between to allow you to binge on a favorite. Drinks are amazing. I highly recommend a Wild Cosmo Martini. Service is always Iike an episode of Cheers, where they make you feel like everybody knows your name. 50 West is one of my staples and I have turned quite a few on to this place.

Vegetarian options: My sister was pleasantly surprised on the gourmet options for vegetarians other than a salad. She completely enjoyed her monstrous veggie burger and sweet potato fries and hoping to try the veggie stuffed peppers. Also we ordered the Caprese Flatebread....which was utterly amazing to the point we ordered again 2 days later for Takeout.
It was awesome. I showed up to go next door but they were closed so I came into 50 west. Don’t regret it. My come to place on Friday now.
I enjoyed the service and food at 50 West. My bf and I went during the week and were the only ones there. The birra tacos had a lot of favor and the Brussel sprouts were cooked perfectly. My bf enjoyed the chicken sandwich.
Parking: Big parking lot in the back
Food is great and drinks are great but sometimes the food takes a long time to come out after ordering
(Last visited 12/22/2021.) Want to see a video review instead of reading? Head on over to "The Hungry Road" on YouTube and search for this restaurant! On our way to see House of Gucci at the AMC theaters in Plainville and we stopped off at 50 West nearby to have a bite before seeing the show. A friend of ours in the Wingaddicts Facebook group recommended this place to us because of their braised wings, which I had never had before so here's how things went!Atmosphere/Appearance: This place delivers an excellent, chic and rustic vibe, but with an upper-scale tavern-like twist. There's a nice outdoor section for the warmer months and the restaurant has plenty of seating split into several different sections. One of my favorite aspects of this place was the high-top bench booths. You could sit higher up off the ground, but let your feet swing at the same time. It's not often that I run across something like that. It was a Thursday evening and the restaurant was quiet around 5:30pm, but I'm sure business picked up later.Service: Our server was actually the bartender and she was awesome. Because it was so slow she was able to run the bar and take care of us. She was sweet, asked us a lot of questions and made it seem like she really wanted to get to know us. We appreciated that. The owner even came out to talk to us when he discovered when I was filming. Regardless, we appreciated the hospitality.Food: We were here during happy hour so we took advantage of it! We started off with their Goat Cheese Balls. They're lightly breaded panko balls served with an orange jalapeno marmalade. They were soft and CRAZILY tender. Like, you didn't even need to chew. They just melted away right in your mouth leaving behind plenty of flavor and some good spice. So the first flavor of wings we had were the Garlic Parmesan. They're a wet sauce and described as "slow-braised". This creates a fall-off-the-bone sensation and it works so well. They were a little on the smaller side and the flavor was light, but they were very good. Next up was Buffalo and they're cooked in the same "slow-braised" manner, all the wings here are cooked like that. The Buffalo was creamy, medium and pretty straightforward. Spicy Thai J*** was next and it was very intriguing. It tasted exactly how the name describes. It was a great balance of Thai flavors and j*** flavors. Last, but not least was "Spicy House Sauce". There wasn't even a description for this you just have to be adventurous. Lol. There was a bit of spicy Sriracha, red peppers, some sweetness, garlic and black pepper. Very good flavors, likely my favorite of the night. After that we went for the cheese quesadilla with short-rib. Let me tell you somethin'. It was SUPER cheesy, succulent, savory and DELICIOUS. To wash it all down, the owner gifted me a White Chocolate Peppermint Martini. It tasted exactly like a candy cane, but if a brown stripe were added. It was sweet and has that distinct "twang" of peppermint. Delicious.Value: The wings were about $11.00 per order and each came with 7 wings. Like I mentioned, the wings were small, but the quality was there. The goat cheese balls were $5.00 and they came in an order of 3. I could've ordered 26 of these and been in absolute Heaven. They were that good. The short-rib quesadilla was $8.00 and absolutely worth it. Granted, this is my perspective of happy hour so I recommend coming at that time, because you know the real menu prices will naturally be more expensive.In conclusion, I really enjoyed myself here. I'd certainly come back to try out out some real entrees or just hit happy hour hard before going to the movies again!If you made it this far in the review, I appreciate you reading.

Great little place. I had steak, it was great. I didn't need to add anything to it to give it flavor. Everything is reasonably priced. I will Mos def be coming back again.
Drinks were great and food was awesome. Place had such a good vibe, nice outdoor seating and they even let my dog join us too!!! Our server Jamie was really great!!! Highly recommend!!
We went for our anniversary and we both loved everything that we ordered. The food was excellent and so was the service. It’s our new favorite restaurant and we can’t wait to go back. It’s definitely a five star place.

The service was Amazing! For me it’s always about the customer service. The owner came out to meet us, that was classy. Alicia our server, bartender, etc. she makes the place run like a well oiled machine. She was on point, treated us like she knew us for years and made us feel welcomed. She made our night! The food was really good and the drinks were PERFECT! The place is a hidden gem. We will be Back!
Love, love, love that seasonal cocktails! Great food and prices too. I do wish they were open later though... 9pm is a big early to close on a Thursday. Still an easy 5 stats though!
We have visited this place probably a handful of times since December and the food has always been good, the mixed drinks are always strong, and the servers are friendly. The owner changes up the menu a bit for the different seasons and everything we have tried has been great...you can tell he takes pride in the quality and presentation of his food. We will keep this place on our date-night dinner rotation. We're looking forward to enjoying the patio when the weather warms up a bit more, too.
Amazing food and atmosphere. Drinks are amazing. Definitely a spot to try. Never a disappointing time.
Great themed brunch menus
