The staff had a lot of customers to serve for the seating and the provided outstanding service. The restaurant manager was personally greeting customers and ensuring they were happy with their meals. Keep up the good work!“

“Had the best time and food! Our first time here and we sat at the bar. Drink special Simple Plan was tasty with a spicy finish so just right! We loved Tuna Tartare. Best tartare ever and we are not kidding. Poached Shrimp Tostada was good too. Spicy Caesar Salad delish to the last bite. We finished with Salted Caramel Crème Brûlée which was well balanced sweet and flavor tasty. We talked with others at the bar about their dishes and those got good reviews too. So we are looking forward to coming back.“

“So happy a fun, late night bar opened in GB! Great drinks, adorable patio, and chill atmosphere. Friendly bartenders, which I love. Definitely recommend.“

“I used to love coming here pre pandemic! I brought my friend with me from out of town and we were having a GREAT night with the bartender Dustin (who literally was excellent), and at the end of the night it was just my friend, the owner, and I. The conversation was calm and civil and fun and suddenly out of NOWHERE the owner proceeded to verbally assault us, calling us expletives and making us feel unsafe and unwelcome. We decided it was no longer for us and stepped outside, at which point he FOLLOWED US OUTSIDE and alternated between apologizing and cursing at us and begging us to come back inside until we left. I’m glad we didn’t go back inside as his behavior was erratic and potentially dangerous, considering we were two women and he is a much larger man. We were afraid and felt safer walking home (in Hartford that says something) rather than staying put. I’m bummed because I used to like this place, but it’s come to my attention we are certainly not the only women with this experience. Please be careful y’all.“

“Our bartender John was great~conversational and made a mean margarita The wings and pretzels were exceptional ~all reasonably priced, too!“

“The Southern BLT is absolutely delicious and the Two'fer with French Fries and Onion Strands is also!! Tatyana J was exceptional as our server and the outside seating was really nice. Highly recommend!! We will definitely be back 🙂🙂“

“Tasty food, but the service is lacking. My food came out wrong (the sever admitted it was wrong) and then she didn't key in a new entree so I had to wait 20 minutes before a new entree arrived. All of the other guests at my table were finishing up their food and they cleared everyone's plate as they put my fresh plate down. I felt very rushed. The service really took away from the dining experience.“

“The food here is delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The owner is very friendly and the staff make the dining experience here a pleasure. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.“

“Wow! Thank you for opening a wonderful restaurant! My wife and I ate there last night and were raving about the food all night. The lemon dry-rub wings and stuffed pork chop with delicious sauce were out of this world. My wife has a allium allergy (garlic, onion, shallots, etc), and the chef specially prepared a salad dressing for her Harvest salad and salmon dish that she thoroughly enjoyed. Service staff (Candace) was also very attentive. We were heading to a show in Hartford and she worked with the kitchen to get us out the door in time. We will be back soon.“

The edamame, and mushroom dumplings were awesome appetizers and the Pho was awesome. I had the Pho King with the recommended greens and Thai chilis and it was the best lunch I've had in a long time. The limeade was soooo good. I can't wait to go back!“

“EXCELLENT SERVICE ABOVE AND BEYOND! Kudos to our server on Sunday, 6/22 and Carlos in the kitchen!! (Sorry I forgot our servers name but she was a tall blonde) I brought my friend’s son who has special needs there because he said it was “national onion ring day” and he wanted onion rings. Our server was so sweet because they don’t have onion rings on the menu, but she went in the kitchen to ask if there was any way my friend could have onion rings. A few minutes later, Carlos came out with a plate of onion rings for my friend who celebrated and said they were so delicious! What exceptional staff both our server and Carlos were to make my special friend’s day! THANK YOU! Highly recommend Hop Haus in Berlin!“

It’s the type of place that everyone in the area should do at least once.“

Our meal was terrific. Our server Jenny was outstanding, attentive and very personable. The managers took special attention in bringing out my meals themselves. We really appreciated the effort and experience we had at this restaurant. Highly Recomended. Brian G“

“Came for bday brunch reservation with a group of 8. Food and drinks were delicious! Loved the Sugar Cookie Martini, Jalea Roll and rice bowl. Service was a little slow, considering we were one of few tables on a Sunday afternoon. Music was super loud, but that's the vibe.“

“We went to Wethersfield location for my Grandson's Birthday. I loved the sauce. Although they stated it had minimal cheese, I would have liked just a little bit more. I would definitely go back and recommend it. I like the way it was served and the way it was sliced. I liked the big, clean open space.“

“Great spot for classic Connecticut-style pizza. We tried the tomato pie with pepperoni: perfectly thin crust, chunky tomato sauce, and just the right crisp. The potato rosemary pizza was a pleasant surprise and ended up being a favorite. The garlicky white base was incredibly flavorful and paired so well with the rosemary and potatoes. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend checking this place out!“
