“We ordered 4 different appetizers and 4 different entrees, everything was AMAZING! Food came out perfect, cocktails were deliciously balanced, great atmosphere, and Samantha did an outstanding job taking care of us. Definitely going back, highly recommended. 10/10“

“4 of us had dinner last night, food was excellent! The eggplant rollatini was stuffed with ricotta, tender eggplant and delicious sauce. My husband had sausage & mushroom pizza. Nice crust, just enough toppings and again, that sauce! Fried calamari was tender & crispy. 6 nice size shrimp in the cocktail. If I had anything to complain about it would be the cocktail sauce was a bit wimpy for my taste. More horseradish, guys! Lol Service was super, empty glasses and plates were removed after we finished. Cozy atmosphere, nice music at a good volume. I highly recommend the place! <3“

“Great breakfast and coffee“

“I have had multiple delicious lobster rolls and tacos from this place. Great bisque too!“

“I’ve been a regular here since Day 1 and I can’t believe I didn’t post a review until NOW!! What can I say, it’s the best seafood in West Haven HANDS DOWN! The oysters are fresh, the lobster rolls are the best, and the mussels for 2 is so flavorful. The staff are like family and welcome you with open arms. For drinks, I recommend the manhattans, old fashioned, espresso martinis and dirty martini with the blue cheese stuffed olives (YUM!). Their Moby’s lager is delicious and there’s a great selection of tequila. The bartenders are the best around! My favorite dishes are the lobster Mac, Lobster Rolls, Tuna Sushimi Oysters, Oysters Rockefeller, and tuna tartare. Trust me, you will not be disappointed with your dining experience! Nick and the crew will take good care of you. I’m a customer for life ❤️“

“Been here a number of times for lunch. Fried clams are very good, soups good. Tartar sauce very mild, very disappointing-ketchup works but why such a continuous let down?“

“Absolutely love this restaurant! The staff is super friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. Santana helps pick the BEST dishes!! The environment is cozy, chill, and relaxing — it’s just a place to go when you want some good food and a calm night! Now the FOOD is FIVE STARS!! Never had an issue and I’ve been here many, many times. Always cooked to perfection. The dessert is yummy and their special coffee is the best I’ve ever had… If you have never been, don’t walk, but run… (:“

“876 Sky Level is by far one of the best in Bridgeport. This establishment is always clean, and the presentation of the various types of dishes is absolutely inviting. Portion sizes and prices are among the best in the area. My taste buds are always satisfied whenever I eat here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ✨️“

“literally the BEST lobster roll i’ve had. The seafood is so fresh, we also got a soft shell crab sandwich and it was delicious. The place is small, but spacious parking and right off the highway. Not only was the service quick but the cashier was super friendly!“

“some of the best shrimps you'll buy short of going to Jimmies of Savin Rock“

“Been wanting to try it for a long time and Covid made it difficult. Finally got a great seafood queen item- fast delivery , amazing taste, and flavors. Definitely be ordering again“

“11.3.24 My 1st time visiting and eating Portugese food. The service was excellent. The food was flavorful and delicious. It was a bit loud with the screaming kids around us, but that just added to the atmosphere. If I loved closer, I'd be here again very soon.“

“The chicken with a side bogo is an undeniable banger! Mac n cheese is so good and don't forget the banana pudding 😋“

“made reservations and it took 30 minutes of not even having our drink order taken and having to say something before getting service. Two of our party had their chairs collapse (and no, they were not obese). Waitress was lovely, however, walked into the restaurant to use the bathroom to find several other waitresses loudly talking about how annoged they were by our table. Went back in to let my son use the restroom and they were speaking badly about another table. needless to say, wont be back. which sucks because our boat is there.“

“The Banderas Latin Fusion cater for my mom repast this past week and the food was delicious. The chef himself delivered the food he came right on time so yes if you haven't tried or came to the his spot you need to come and try it.. BELIEVE me you won't be disappointed Thanks Michael“

“The sushi is very fresh, the staff and sushi chefs are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place, this was my 5th time here.“

“5 ⭐️We went here to celebrate my daughter’s graduation from Sacred Heart University. Their location in Trumbull near the college was over an hour wait. Found out there was a second (original ) location in Stratford, On the phone they told us to come right over, they were waiting for us. When we arrived they welcomed us with open arms, were super friendly and super attentive. They treated my daughter like a super star. The food was delicious and the cocktails were so creative and tasty. Would highly recommend and will definitely return.“

“We ate here last night and the food and service were wonderful! What was even more wonderful was the customer service when I left my purse at the restaurant. I called later that night to see if it was there. They were so kind and kept my bag and made arrangements to get it to me this morning before they opened. Would definitely go back!“

“Simply the BEST Mexican restaurant in CT! My go to is either the enchilada combo … the best MOLE sauce ever!! OR, the carnitas plate… everything is excellent!!!“

“Overall good and we will be back, probably not on Sat. or at least at a different time. Place was mobbed and without OpenTable would not have had a chance. Got last table for two, unfortunately where the doorway made it cool. And really noisy. Took 45 minutes for entrees. But all that said, both our meals were tops and I can see why it gets high ratings and is an Oxford favorite. First timers but not the last.“

“Last night we were there for an early Birthday dinner for me! It's been a long time since we've dined at Ralph 'n' Rich's, but I will say that our food was delicious, & the service was superb! Brittany was our server, & she was awesome! I can't recall our busboy's name but he was great with bringing bread to our table, & refilling our water glasses as needed. I had the baby arugula salad special to start, & it was so tasty & the perfect beginning before having an old favorite of mine, linguine with white clam sauce. My hubby really enjoyed the Spiedina Romano which is a kicked up mozzarella appetizer that if he fully polished it off, he wouldn't have ate his Chicken Piccata then tangerine sorbet afterwards! Don't worry, we brought home leftovers to enjoy! Topping off things was a surprise singing of "Happy Birthday" when my tartufo came out! Reservations are strongly recommended especially for dinner, but Ralph 'n' Rich's is a gem that's had staying power in Downtown Bridgeport for many years. Go there & enjoy!“

“They were so accommodating in changing an appetizer to an entree and a specific sauce on gnocchi, when we brought some quarantined relatives appetizers, entrees and deserts, last week. They raved about everything and the price was fantastic!“

“great fresh seafood.. ordered a whole belly clam basket..good portion size and cole slaw very fresh...can't wait till next visit!“

“I drove to Connecticut for a 3k walk/ 5k run on a beautiful Sunday. I looked for a place to have lunch afterwards and stumbled on this gem. I did not have a reservation and the hostess was very nice and gave me a table without any hesitation. The views were stunning and the food was absolutely delicious. My waitress and the rest of the staff were so attentive, I did not feel rushed even when the restaurant was starting to get busy.“

“The place is awesome. The crab and shrimp is amazing. I recommend trying the Du Jour family catch for $49.99. I gave 5 star⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food is absolutely delicious and the help is extraordinarily polite and helpful. Our new favorite Italian restaurant!“

“Nice couple of hours there today on a rainy Sunday. Delicious food, awesome staff!!!!“

“Very delicious food and good service“

“Family Flamez is the GOAT. I live in Philly now and have tried to find other restaurants that make a better oxtail and it’s no comparison. This is the best Jamaican place on the eastern seaboard. When you’re here you’re family. Give them your money now! It’s not too spicy it’s called flavor. The meat is fall off the bone. Fried chicken is mind blowing, portions are plentiful. There is an Artist at work in that kitchen and we should all bow down. Period.“

“Went last night for the first time to celebrate my birthday with my granddaughter. The food was great and we were treated to the best waiter and manager. The service was the best that i have had in a long time and made us feel so special. The veal dish I had was wonderful, Large portion for the price and my granddaughter had the chicken parm and she couldn't finish her dish. I will definitely go again and tell my friends about this gem of a restaurant“

“🥦 Rabe & sausage..THE BEST ❤️“

“Best restaurant ever. Every visit was great! Food Great! Service great! Atmosphere great ! This is our go-to restaurant. Highly recommend !“

“Best hot dogs in Ct“

“It’s my go to spot. Grill master is on point, grilling street side. Jerk pork to die for. Tastiest Jamaican food in Bridgeport area. Great staff. 5 ⭐️“

“I stopped here for dinner after shopping at Bass Pro Shops/Cabelas, it was a good little find. I had some clam chowder and steamed clams, both were very good, they had good beer on tap too. Place had a good blue collar New England fisherman feel to it, great bartender, and its location felt like the kind of place which may be next to the dock the seafood is unloaded at. I’ll be back especially if riding my motorcycle on the CT turnpike as this place also appeared very friendly towards bikers.“

“I have zero complaints about this establishment. Great food, great service, great atmosphere.“

“My favorite summertime go to place for amazing lobster rolls! Love everything about Dock 34.“
