“Hop has probably the best Philly cheesesteak I’ve had in the 50 miles around, not to mention their wings slap.

To the one star below me, you’re a 🤡 for the review. You pulled up to Hop, on of the most hyped nights in sports history, to write a review about how much of a nerd you are. Stay home next time. KNICKS IN FIVE!!!!!!“

“Just wanted to thank you for serving the most tender (cut with a fork) and flavorful Berkshire pork chop I have had the pleasure of eating. This compliment on your quality and preparation is unequivocal as I have eaten pork chops in more than 200 restaurants throughout the USA, Mexico, South America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Philippines, Japan, Spain and France. My absolute favorite brined pork chop is served at Castelli’s Ristorante in Palm Desert CA. Inasmuch as my brother lives in Stamford I will be back. BTW my wife’s Braised Short Ribs were melt in your mouth as well. A great big thank you and hat’s off to the culinary team.“

“Casey’s Tavern is a fantastic local favorite that absolutely deserves a five-star review! From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed by a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that feels both classic and inviting.

The food is excellent—simple, well-made, and full of flavor. From hearty comfort dishes to perfectly cooked bar favorites, everything is prepared with care and consistency. It’s the kind of place where every meal feels satisfying and dependable.

The drink selection is great as well, with cold beers and solid cocktails that pair perfectly with the laid-back tavern vibe.

What really makes Casey’s Tavern stand out is the service. The staff is genuinely friendly, attentive, and makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit.

If you’re looking for a comfortable neighborhood spot with great food, drinks, and atmosphere, Casey’s Tavern is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“Surprisingly family-friendly for a bar! It’s our go to weekend hangout. There’s a whole separate area away from the main bar where you can let the kids loose (not literally… unless you’re into that). Tons of games: darts, table games, and enough fun to keep everyone entertained while you sip on a perfectly poured Guinness. The food? Ridiculously good. Wings and burgers hit the spot, and my husband swears by the Reuben-it’s basically his soulmate. Just don’t expect fine china here. Everything comes on paper plates, because the food’s too good to waste time on dishes. Bonus: the owners are the kind of people you’d want to have a beer with-friendly, down-to-earth, and clearly doing it right. Highly recommend if you want a place where the whole family can eat, play, and pretend it’s not a bar. 🍔🍺🎯“

“Meringue in Stamford is hands down one of the most underrated spots in the area. The food is consistently amazing every time I go — especially the wings and burgers, which are always a solid 10/10. Everything comes out fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right.

What really sets the place apart, though, is the atmosphere and the people. The owners are genuinely great individuals who take pride in what they do and really take care of their customers. You can tell they appreciate every person who walks through the door.

It’s a cozy, welcoming spot that deserves a lot more recognition than it gets. Once you go, it’s the kind of place that keeps you coming back“

“Wings were perfectly cooked (both bone-in and boneless), beer was ice cold. Great atmosphere, although a bit on the smaller side, the wings were probably the best ones I’ve had in Stamford. Pictured are buffalo & garlic parmesan boneless, side of fries, teriyaki bone-in, beer and a Dirty Shirley.

Update: another visit another 5 star experience. She had the chicken Fajitas and I had a smash burger with waffle fries. Excellent! Service by Joe was on point!! Definitely visit if around!“
