“Kibbeh was good, feta and spinach pie leaves a lot to be desired I couldn't taste any feta inside and dough was very dry.

“We ordered the vegetarian spring rolls, pan-fried pork dumplings, chicken and broccoli, and roast pork with broccoli — and were pleasantly surprised by how good everything was. The chicken and broccoli came with plenty of broccoli (which we appreciated), and the roast pork had great flavor without being fatty. The dumplings were nicely pan-fried, the spring rolls were crisp, and everything traveled well for takeout. Generous portions, easy pickup, and solid value. We’ll definitely order again.”

“I absolutely love this deli and will always go out of my way to eat there.
Their creative menu offers so many delicious choices. They’ve got everything and then some. A perfect choice for a catered breakfast and lunch.
Tony’s staff is so accommodating, polite and friendly, often addressing customers by name and always with a warm smile.
It’s a very popular establishment but even when it’s crowded they’re quick, patient and have never gotten my special orders wrong.
If you haven’t been there yet add it to your must go list!”

“Met some out-of-town friends here on a Sat at 11a for brunch. The atmosphere is incredible, not very crowded, with lots of outdoors covered seating. I got the farmer’s omelette which was nothing special. However, the ceviche was outstanding and flavorful. I highly recommend. My wife got the Fennel Avocado salad and octopus appetizer. She loved both. She only wished the fennel pieces were cut in thirds. The portions are average in size and prices more akin to NYC than Rye. But overall we were happy.”

“There are places you stumble into for convenience, and then there are places that feel like they’ve been waiting for you all along—quietly perfecting their craft while the rest of the world argues about trends and fusion nonsense. Cinco de Mayo is the latter.

You smell it before you even sit down. Not the timid, sanitized version of “Mexican food” that gets paraded around strip malls—but the real deal. Warm corn tortillas hitting a flat-top. Meat sizzling with purpose. Cilantro and onion cutting through the air like a sharp knife. There’s a faint hum of spice—cumin, maybe a whisper of chili—hanging low, like it knows it belongs there. It doesn’t beg for your attention. It earns it.

The room itself? No pretension. No curated “aesthetic” dreamed up by someone who’s never eaten standing at a street cart. It’s alive. Conversations bounce off the walls. Plates clatter. There’s an easy rhythm to it all—like everyone in the room is in on the same secret: this is what it’s supposed to feel like. You don’t come here for ambiance in the Instagram sense. You come here because it feels honest.

And then—the tacos.

Simple. Dangerous word, “simple.” Because when something is this stripped down, there’s nowhere to hide. The tortilla is soft, fresh, doing exactly what it needs to do—nothing more, nothing less. The meat? Tender, deeply seasoned, the kind of flavor that doesn’t shout but lingers. You get that first bite and suddenly you’re not in Connecticut anymore—you’re somewhere louder, warmer, more alive. A squeeze of lime, maybe a hit of salsa if you’re feeling bold, and that’s it. No gimmicks. No distractions. Just balance.

You eat one, then another, then you stop counting because counting feels beside the point.

Five stars? Sure. But that doesn’t quite capture it. This isn’t about stars. It’s about walking in hungry and leaving with something that feels a little closer to satisfaction—real satisfaction, the kind that doesn’t need explaining”

“My husband and I recently hosted our baby shower for our first baby at Flinder's last weekend (3/21/26), and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. We hosted roughly 55 people and utilized the entire restaurant for our private event (restaurant buyout). From the onset, Ross and Eric (Mgr. + Assistant Mgr.) were incredibly friendly, responsive to all my questions via email, and agreed to meet not once, but TWICE in-person to ensure all details were accounted for, and that our requests would be accommodated. The event ran smoothly because of their professionalism and attention to detail. During the event, the kitchen, bar, and wait staff were incredibly attentive, kind, friendly, and honestly felt like part of the party the entire time. Our family and friends raved about the entire experience, including the service, the food, and the configuration of the space. We left smiling from ear-to-ear, and are incredibly grateful to everyone at Flinder's for helping to make our baby shower a great success!”

“Raphael's Bakery is the absolute best! I was in town from NorCal and I stopped by to meet a friend in Greenwich. I had some time to kill so I started asking Charlotte about why my homemade sourdough bread wasn't successful. She called Raphael over who, while he didn't share his secret receipe, he helped me understand the reasons why my bread wasn't full of air and getting any "oven lift." They were both so gracious with their time and experience......I hope they will consider offering cooking classes at some point. Absolute class act people!”

“I’ve dined here a few times… the vibe is pretty awesome, laid back and welcoming. The family owned restaurant offers a great selection from Chef Adrian’s awesome vision of French and south East Asian cuisine ! Pretty cool combo. When you arrive you’re greeted and seated. I recommend reservations as it can fill up quickly. On our first trip there we tried the lobster shooters which are a must try. Basically you get a piece of lobster in a shot glass with a coconut curry concoction.. take the shot and boom 🤯 what a creative amazing app! We also had the salt and pepper cod over garlicky fried rice and their shaken beef dish! Both dishes were prepared with one thought in mind! perfection. They have a pretty neat dessert collection that you won’t find on most menus, you can say it’s unique to this restaurant. The coco panna cotta, key lime pie, passion fruit pavlova and my absolute favorite the coconut tapioca pudding! All prepared in house. Other must try’s are the Rockstar shrimp which is fried popcorn shrimp, iceberg lettuce, sweet chili sauce, lime. Both shrimp and veggie pan fried dumplings, the rooster wings and the late great lemongrass mussels. My hands down favorite dish had to the steak frittes which comes szechuan maitre'd butter, french fries, spicy mayo! Honorable mention on their lunch menu for me is the Bahn Mi sandwich My wife loves the Vietnamese crepe - This is a must try if offered, this was made famous and can be seen featured in one of the episodes of Beat Bobby Flay! Where the chef took down the world renown celebrity chef to beat Bobby Flay! In short a great spot to have a nice date, or even celebrate a birthday! And on nice days you can sit outside in their outdoor patio area.”
