“Been looking for wings in CT for almost 2 years and finally found them here, actually crispy - finally. And the Garlic/Honey sauce is crazy good. They also nailed the cheesesteak - I love this place!!!! Now they just need to put cream cheese (instead of cheddar) in their jalepeno poppers and they’ll get a Michelin star ;) LOVE this place!“

“This place is for sure a hidden gem...A small little mom & pop place that has been around a long time...They are open for breakfast & lunch...6a-2p mon-saturday & 6a-1p on Sunday. I had a grilled ham cheese and tomato and a cup of tomato soup...it was maybe 8 bucks and delicious...a value meal from McDonald's costs more...idk how they keep everything so affordable, but im glad they do...Give them a try...help keep this place going...“

Brooklyn Cafe American • $
11 Congress Ave, Waterbury

“I ordered a filled bagel and a cupcake. The service was very friendly and warm, and quick though there was quite a queue. The bagel was excellent, great taste, with a small side salad. The cupcake was really moist and beautiful, the buttercream very creamy, and tasty all-in-all, though very sugary! I would recommend this place for the excellent bagels and kind service, and the cupcakes for the ones with a sweet tooth. Maybe an idea for the future to have some sweet products that don't pack quite as much sugar, but I'm definitely coming back for another bagel!“

“9.2.23 we got married at our hometown fair grounds and had Frankie’s cater! It was PERFECTION!! Everyone was blown away when they found out that’s what we were having for food, so fun, and who doesn’t love hot dog and burgers (especially FRANKIE’s)?! There was only a couple cooks/servers and MAN OH MAN did they crank it all out! We had around 160 people and they had a line as soon as the food was out, serving up all the goods in such a timely manor. They cooked and served for about 3 hours.. it worked out SO well, many had 2nds and 3rds, plus we had left overs 😍. Everyone was RAVING! we couldn’t have had it any better, Thank you guys SO much!“

“I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude and admiration for an exceptional individual who has truly revolutionized my trading experience. Mrs. Beth Abrams, a highly skilled and professional broker manager, has surpassed all expectations with her extraordinary abilities. In my quest for a trusted broker assistant or manager, I have scoured the online landscape, but no one comes close to her unmatched expertise. Witnessing my first successful withdrawal of $34,000 in less than a week was a moment of revelation. It became abundantly clear that Mrs. Abrams possesses a level of skill that is unparalleled in the industry. Her astute accuracy and meticulous attention to detail have earned her a remarkable reputation. Rest assured, there is no other trader online who can deliver such consistently sound and accurate results.“
