Arancini( my husband makes a really good one so we were hesitant to try it but were pleasantly surprised) , bacon wrapped stuffed chix breast and jambalaya. Finished up with a slice of cake. 5 stars! Well done JRego’s“

“Awesome place to take a step back in time.
Waitresses dressed in uniforms with little caps. Terrific hamburgers,cheeseburgers and wonderful ice cream?

Kid-friendliness: Good spot for kids. Very nice relaxed atmosphere.“

“I'm visiting from out of state, and I like to find places to eat that I don't have back home. I love loaded fries, so this was a no-brainer for me. I ordered the taco fries without jalapeños. The service was great, the presentation was gorgeous, and the taste was excellent. The fries themselves, aside from any toppings, are thick-cut, earthy-tasting, legitimate freshly-made from handcut potatoes. The toppings were generous and flavorful, and didn't taste generic or store-bought. 10/10 would recommend, and I hope to eat here again on future visits to the area!“

“5 Stars – A Hidden Gem with Amazing Vibes and Even Better Bartenders!

The Trophy Room in Storrs, CT is hands down one of my favorite spots in town. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a long day or kick off a night out with friends, this place never misses. The atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between cozy and lively, and the drink selection is always on point.

What really sets Trophy Room apart, though, are the bartenders—especially Olivia and Allison. These two are absolute stars behind the bar. They’re not only incredibly skilled at crafting top-notch cocktails, but they also bring such good energy to the place. Friendly, attentive, and always down for a quick chat or a solid recommendation, they make you feel right at home every time.

Olivia and Allison elevate the whole experience, and honestly, they’re a big reason I keep coming back. If you haven’t checked out Trophy Room yet, do yourself a favor and stop by—just be ready to make it your new go-to spot!“

“So this is definitely a small town local watering hole buuuuuuuut… the minute you walk in, whether you’ve been a regular for 20 years or it’s your first visit to the eagle you will feel welcomed by staff and patrons alike. The staff is top notch (and honestly a great steal for the locals to enjoy in the cocktail mastery of this place)! They create their own drinks like master mixologists, and the good ole regular drinks are stiff and reasonably priced. There’s always a friend to be made and a good time to be had!!! 5+ stars!!!!“

“My daughter and I stopped here on our way back from a UConn tour - I’m vegetarian and the Mediterranean pasta was one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had - highly recommend!!! My daughter ordered chicken and a side of fries, the fry order was huge for $5! I helped her eat the fries and we both couldn’t put a dent in it! Friendly staff, beautiful sunset view - if we are ever back in the area we will definitely stop back in!“

“Just wonderful ! The beet salad with red quinoa and blackened chicken is so paleo healthy and the burgers high quality delish. Great cup of coffee too. Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned perfectly. Gorgeous old house with fireplace. The home made clam chowder is a such a surprise - best we have had since we were children in Mystic !“

“We were here for wing night, and the wings were delicious! We got Buffalo Hot and Sweet chili, with an order of fried mozzarella, which was also very good.

Our server, Sue, did an excellent job keeping tabs on us and was very friendly. The food arrived in a timely fashion and was just what we wanted.

We'll definitely be back.

PS we enjoyed the choice of music playing too!“

“I came here last night for the first time after a recommendation and so glad we did cause they did not disappoint. The decor is a little dated however we have the nicest waitress Natasha who made the evening so great. She was very prompt and friendly and really funny. The food portions were a generous size and everything we had was really good. We never once asked for water refills, she just kept them coming. Amazing staff. Amazing food. Will be returning to our new local favorite spot in the very near future and hopefully will get the same amazing waitress.“

“I'm very disappointed. Yesterday, we chose Bond 124 to gather with family after a family members funeral. It was not our first choice, but the other restaurant was closed for vacation. We had remembered attending a grad party at Bond in May that was fabulous, so we thought we would give it a try for lunch. It was about 12:30 p.m. on a Friday. There was one other table occupied and maybe one or two people at the bar. Our waitress was great at first, came right over, brought waters and provided menus. We ordered drinks, which she quickly got confused with, but we thought nothing of it. We placed our order and began our wait. About 20 minutes later, Sam came to the table and asked if we wanted our food orders brought all at once or as they were made because the cheese buger and chicken sandwich ordered was already cooked. We said sure, bring them out as they are made, assuming they would just be a few minutes apart. Nope! First of all, she brought out the cheesebuger and not the chicken sandwich. At least 15 minutes later, the deep dish pizzas ordered came out. At this time, she informed me my soup (which I ordered as my meal) was not available. I asked Sam what soups she did have, and she responded, "I don't know" (Not let me check). When I pushed to know, she huffed off and went to look. Now we had to ask for the chicken sandwich that still hadn't been brought out, at which time she said it was coming soon. We are now at least 30 minutes since the first meal hit the table, and I still didn't have my bowl of soup. Finally, the chicken sandwich came out, and still no soup. When my soup finally came out, everyone else at our table had already finished eating. Due to the sad event that brought us together in the first place, I didn't bother complaining, but to say we will not be back or recommend this restaurant is an understatement. With so few guests, how does this happen. Where was the manager??“

“There's something special about the old burger stands. And the men and women who work them!! Every time I come to Toms the food is great, service is friendly- regardless of how busy they are, and they are fighting this cold before us all to get there before us so we can have a delicious HOT breakfast or lunch 😋 I can't say enough good things about this classic burger stand“

“Great pool hall and bar, really chill people and great service every time I visit... some of the best players I know play here regularly.“

“We had lunch here and the food was great. The place was clean. We found the music that was playing very loud and harsh for lunch. Other than that, I would go back.

Vegetarian options: Since they have someone who clearly knows how to cook, i feel if you wanted to tweek a dish, it wouldn't hurt to ask.“

“Just ordered take out from Hometown. Cajun Salmon , twice baked potato and a house salad with homemade blue cheese dressing. Large portion at a reasonable cost. Amazing dinner!“

“The waffles were amazing. I stopped here on a whim while I was out riding around on the bike. The service was very friendly and checked on me often. My coffee cup was always filled. I'll definitely will be bringing my wife next time to this place.“

“Our "go-to" birthday breakfast place for everyone in the family! It never disappoints! So happy they are open again! Great place for food allergies and variety. Everyone in our group has different palates and we all just love it here! Oh and if you're gluten-free, the waffles are amazing!!!! 🥞😋 #familyfriendly #foodallergyfriendly #glutenfree #waffles“

“good friendly service, delicious food in a clean atmosphere. always look forward to stop here between Boston and new York.“

“Excellent food quick service and reasonable prices“

“Went to a private birthday party in the vip room. There are 6 lanes,a bar and plenty of seating. The food was buffet style and it was ok, nothing to rave about. It was basically wings and pizza.It's a great place for a kids birthday party.“

“I decided to stop in The Vernon grill by accident About 6 months ago To pick up Lottery tickets and noticed they had a grill inside. So I decided to look at the menu and order one of their grilled signature sandwiches which was excellent. Since that day, I continue go to Go there. I find that they're food is excellent. I have never had a problem Ordering anything on their menu? It's always been delicious. The staff is very friendly and down to earth. I find that whenever I decided not to cook at home I always wind up at Vernon grill. I have found this establishment to be one that I enjoy a great deal. I continue to tell my friends and family to give it a try and they have enjoyed it very much. I have yet to have any negative experiences. I give them a 5 star rating for a fast food establishment which I have become a very satisfied customer. GREAT JOB VERNON GRILL WELL DONE“

“Hands down my favorite spot for wings. So many flavors.... dry seasoned or sauce.... whatever mood your in.... youll find wings to match it. Great beer. And a ton of different stuff bottled or on tap. And last but not least their prime rib...... brrrruuuuhhhhh. They have the best prime rib ive eaten at any restaraunti n ct. Do i recommend bidwell...... YES. Stupid question“

“I ordered a cheese steak and a six pack. I am new to the area, having just bought land and I am very pleased with this place. They took a bit long, over an hour, to deliver but I am satisfied. They included a bag of chips, and a pickle! I'm not even a fan of pickles but this was crunchy and tasty! The cheese steak was excellent! Also it was still hot by the time it got to me! I asked for the cheapest six pack and they brought me Narragansett light. I have never heard of this beer but it is refreshing and enjoyable! I am only giving your stats because it took a bit longer than expected but seeing as I only ordered a sandwich I can understand if they saved my delivery for last. In the end I got a hot delicious sandwich and cold delicious beer. I will add them to my phone book right away!“

“Stopped here for a quick lunch bite between college visits. I think it was the owner or manager who took time to welcome us and let us know about the specials and what was worth ordering. Everything was made to order, very fresh and tasty. The Veg Chili and Clam Chowder were a hit. Wish we had more time to enjoy our meal.“
