Can't ask for more......Thanks for being right down the street from us!!“

“First time here, but I was very impressed by the food and service. I'm trying to eat a more plant-based diet and the veggie quesadilla was not only delicious, but extremely satisfying and filling. One of a few places that actually have blue cheese stuffed olives for martinis! Will definitely stay here again!“

“Got the garlic parm crusted chicken it was a bit salty but good the potato looked fake but was ok but again very salty and not very loaded.

“I really enjoyed my visit to Union Kitchen. The place was empty when I went so service overall was prompt and efficient. Kyle, my server, was exceptional and provided top notch service throughout my visit. I started with spicy chicken wings with the trufallo sauce. think these wings were smoked. I like my wings grilled. They were good just not excellent. The house burger was very good but it wasn't big enough to justify price. The brioche bun was sweet and soft. The caramelized onions were delicious. The shoestring fries were great. How do you go wrong with shoestring fries? I had a drink from the bar but I forgot what it was. A lot of crushed ice and not a lot of alcohol. I was disappointed in this. Overall it was a fine early afternoon dining experience before my show“

“Tried for the first time today ! I had the loco taco hot dog and it was delicious !“

“Their roast beef is amazing. Defiantly recommend a roast beef, American cheese, lettuce, mayo sandwich.“

“I would be there right now if they still had the chicken parm sandwich“

“Usually don’t leave reviews, but have to leave one for this place. Food never disappoints, great customer service, great prices. Definitely worth going to any chance you get!“

“Food, staff, atmosphere top notch.“

“Tenth Hole Tavern is the best spot for casual dining/takeout this side of Glastonbury. Their food is excellent and the staff really knows how to show the customers a good time. Kendall and Kelly are the nicest and are very accommodating. Not to mention the full bar, expansive beer selection, and wide variety on the menu. Some of my personal favorites include the chicken tenders (with their house made buffalo sauce), the buttermilk chicken sandwich, and the oven roasted turkey wrap. Don’t sleep on the brick oven pizza either. Tenth Hole Tavern has earned a special place in my heart❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Three stops here so far and always delicious 😋! We have both lived in and visited Philly, this is the real deal“

“We have never gotten a bad meal. Best prime rib around. Best stuffed shrimp also. I do think the shrimp got smaller. Prices are fair. My only complaint would be that the carpet is disgusting. It HAS to be over 30 yrs old maybe 40 cause I've been eating here for many yrs now“

“I don't go to very many restaurants except for Kimberly's and occasionally another one or two. I'm a regular customer. The food is excellent (The quesadillas are superb!), the help is pleasant, and atmosphere is nice. Kimberly's menu is so large that anyone should be pleased.“

“We took my dad there just last nite for father’s day he and I got the prime rib. It was excellent so tender and juicy just cooked to perfection. My mom had the southwest salad with chicken which she loved and my boyfriend had steak tips. Great food, our waitress was awesome, and great atmosphere. We will definitely be going back there!!!!“

“A-Z everything here is great, from service to bar to food. A great experience all around!“

“My favorite spot to hang out. Been around a long time, very consistent.“

“food was good, service was good“

“I was a little taken back at first but the setup just adds to the atmosphere of this place. The people were fast, attentive and the meatball calzone was soooo good. Huge calzone! I ate half for lunch and the other half for dinner. It tastes like it was made fresh as well as the pizza sauce. Delicious!“

“Found our next ‘excellent’ food restaurant up in this area. Def recommend.“

“First time here. Service was excellent but food was mediocre. Burger was ok. Fries were not fresh. You could tell they were frozen. Pickles were really good.“

“Red Rock Tavern is the hidden gem of Hartford—warm energy, great people, and a vibe that always hits. If you’re stepping out on a Saturday, the 90s Karaoke Sip & Paint is the move. Nostalgia, creativity, and good music in one room… it’s the perfect way to elevate your weekend.“

“My husband Jeff and I(Terry) had the best Valentine's Dayy!! Your wings, your service, Food is amazing. Our standards are very high and appreciate all you do for our community!!! Happy Valentine's Day From the Vagell's!! ❤️“

“I think that the concept and menu are good. The drawback from my point of view is that it smells a lot like food inside the establishment. They should solve that if it is not too much to ask and perhaps explain a little more specifically how to order and pay for the food in the establishment. restaurant, I think the young women do a good job.“

“I made a reservation here on a Saturday for a date night with my wife and we had a great time. The atmosphere was cool. The service and food were all very good. (We had Cuban Sliders, Calamari and loaded plantain nachos). It was nice to have a unique restaurant experience for a change. It’s the type of place that everyone in the area should do at least once.“

“Good food,super quick and nice service
In a very lively area.
We got the :
-Cowboy burger itg side of fries - good burger,the bacon was super crispy
-Ahi tuna burger with a side of calslaw- surprisingly juicy and the seasoning was delicious.And the slaw was very tasty
-Buffalo shrimp - just YUM
-Egg plant fries - not my favorite,was a bit too oily,the bayter is too heavy for the eggplant
Washed it ll down with a vanilla milkshake
Sorry that we only photographed the shrimp and fries,we were starving after a 6 hour drive“

“Wings were the BEST we ever had! Caesar salad w/chicken was outstanding! Stopped by randomly for lunch. So happy we did.“

“Delicious food and friendly staff!👍👍. Will be back!“

“Delicious chicken wings. You must try the smoked chicken wings with the kitchen sink sauce. WoW!!!

I'm from Buffalo, NY and am very particular to my wings. I haven't found any other place in Connecticut yet that I would mention anything about the wings. A must try. When you try, please let me know!!! 😂“

“Best latkes that I’ve ever had!“

“Five stars all around. Great, friendly staff. Tasty dishes with an artistic atmosphere!“

“I haven't been there for probably twenty years. My ex wife's grandmother would take us there. I decided to bring my almost adult children there. A very old school restaurant. You get the choice of soup af the day or salad. I was a little apprehensive ordering the chicken marsala. Many times I have let down eating it without the marsala flavor. I know how to cook. The wine has to be reduced by 3/4 to get the taste. I asked the waiter if they did indeed reduce it. He told me yes. I wasn't disappointed with my selection. My son ordered a New York strip. Me was satisfied. I was happy to see his hony mustard was only used for his fries. My daughter ordered something Italian. Not sure what it was, but it was like 3 servings. A restaurant that has been in business for many years. This tells me that they are doing something right, as with our dinner.“

“Sister’s is a small and cozy neighborhood cafe located in the north end of Hartford that feels very homey. Great food, good vibes, and friendly service. The menu is a blend of Jamaican and Black American comfort food. I started to get the ackee and salt fish but stuck with an old southern favorite my grandma used to make. The fish and grits with a side of eggs didn’t disappoint! The fish was seasoned and fried perfectly and the grits were buttery and soft. I’ll be back the next time I’m in town.“

“EXCELLENT PLACE , THERE FOOD IS GREAT N PRICE IS VERY RESONABLE. YOU GOTTA TRY THERE SEA FOOD PLATTER & THERE WINGS EXC. NICE COZY PLACE , N ATMOSPHERE IS GREAT AS WELL. COME ON DOWN YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT !!“

“Treated my sister to an excellent dinner on Easter weekend. Loved the with artic char with chef’s specialty , ginger rice and a delicious pablano sauce!“

“Jason is absolutely amazing! I have stayed here for the past 10 days and each night he delivers exceptional service, delicious food, and some of the best hospitality I have ever experienced. I am so impressed!!!! Thank you Jason! You made my experience so special!!!“

“Cute staff. Epic eats. Best food on campus hands down.“

“It was a culinary delight. I had the crispy duck leg. It was so tender on the inside. It was plated on passion fruit juice and seeds, and garnished with crispy rind of orange. It was such a joy to eat.“

“Today I decided to actually patronize this establishment after seeing many posts about it and my sister raving about it. I had the macaroni and cheese with jerk chicken and my son had the steak and cheese panini with a side of fries. All I can say is yum, yum, yum! The portions were plentiful and I only ate a third of my meal. I would like to Thank you and your staff Chef Walt, and I will definitely be back ( This time I will call ahead…lol…..although the wait was not long at all).“
