“Zaytoon Lebanese Restaurant in West Hartford with Ty. My first experience with Turkish coffee and it was superb. It's strong just like New Orleans coffee and Right up my alley. Our server was attentive, courteous, and efficient. He had a smile and a pleasant personality and was very helpful with the ordering. The food was hot and delicious. The lamb was a gift from the Greek gods. It was tender and seasoned and most flavorful with no gamey aftertaste. Everything you would want from a Mediterranean/Lebanese restaurant.“

Parking: Parking garage is right around the corner and easy to get to. Street parking is all parallel parking and it's usually hard to find a spot on busy times“

“Olli is amazing and goes above and beyond to serve her customers. The manager Liz is more invested in her employees than most places I've been. The atmosphere inside the dining in of very lackluster. But, at least in nice weather you can sit outside.“

“Menu was tough for some of our guests. The beet appetizer was good but I wish it had been served as a warm appetizer. Entrees took a long while to come out and some of our meals were cold or lukewarm. Liked that we could see the happenings on the street. Somewhat cold decor.“

“A good hang out spot!!! I highly recommend this place❤️❤️❤️“

“We had our wedding at The Pond House Café and it was absolutely beautiful. The ceremony and reception were everything we hoped for. Our guests loved the food, the décor, the music, and the warm, welcoming vibe. The staff went above and beyond—Charlene, Diana, and Alissa took care of us with so much care and professionalism. Everything ran smoothly and felt special. We’re so thankful for the whole team. This will definitely be our go-to spot for future celebrations! 1000000/10 experience!!“

“Been coming to Pho Boston for a while now and they are always spot on. The food is amazing and the staff is awesome. The gentleman in the black shirt (I believe he is the manager) is always hustling and super kind. The entire staff is fabulous. Highly recommend Pho Boston!“

“my boys & I went to SONG this past Saturday. We ate everything we ordered. The food was super tasty. The depth of flavors was absolutely delicious! We tried the pancake roll which had beef & vegetables inside. OH MY GOODNESS! I could literally eat that every day for the rest of my life! I'm totally serious. I'm not sure why they have only a 4.0, which is a good score. Honestly? SONG is deserving of at least a 4.6 but I'm giving them a 4.8. our waiter was a sweetie, polite & attentive. it wasn't crowded, actually none of the restaurants were super crowded. we were there around 630pm. so maybe it was a bit early. The atmosphere was welcoming & comfortable. This was my 2nd time there & I'll definitely be going back. 4.8! ❤️“

“Hey Mike! The Branzino was amazing. Loved the sampler appetizer too. See yah soon!“

“Good food,super quick and nice service
In a very lively area.
We got the :
-Cowboy burger itg side of fries - good burger,the bacon was super crispy
-Ahi tuna burger with a side of calslaw- surprisingly juicy and the seasoning was delicious.And the slaw was very tasty
-Buffalo shrimp - just YUM
-Egg plant fries - not my favorite,was a bit too oily,the bayter is too heavy for the eggplant
Washed it ll down with a vanilla milkshake
Sorry that we only photographed the shrimp and fries,we were starving after a 6 hour drive“

“Food is delicious! Highly recommend the Brussels sprouts, salads, truffle fries, pizza and meatballs. The drinks are really good too! Great place!“

“What a Amazing place to dine.The staff was so attentive. Our food and drinks were absolutely decadent. I will be back.“

“The momo’s were excellent. The dishes we got were chicken with Palow rice and matt paneer. They were decent but not great. The salad that came with the chicken dish was filled with nasty browning lettuce. Hard to understand how they could serve that.

The atmosphere inside was tired looking. Kinda felt like I was still in an IHOP.

I might get the momos to go next time.“

“Great vegan options! Delicious and fresh food 👏👏“

“Excellent service, ambiance, menu selections, and individualized meals made this a wonderful place for five friends to celebrate a birthday. We will return!“

“There food is very good. I order online for delivery a lot. The food is always here quickly, nice and hot. The delivery is awesome. He has a great sense of humor.“

“The Food is Delicious and the service is good. Done in or take out, you will not be disappointed!“

“This is a Hidden Gem in town. It's been here for a while, the prices are reasonable, the service is always attentive, and the food tends to be pretty fresh.

The portion sizes are quite good for Thai food, the meat is always tender, and the vegetables always seem like they are fresh, which is not always the case with the vegetables in Thai restaurants.

Parking can be a little bit of a challenge when they are busy, but it's well worth a visit.“

“The food is always delicious no matter what we order! The service is friendly and responsive; fast but you never feel rushed. Their food is fresh, rice is fluffy, vegetable are my favorite. When we ordered a shrimp dish, there were so many shrimp it made splitting the dish with everyone very easy. I highly recommend this restaurant, it is a pleasure going there.“

“Overall, Ben & Jerry’s is a great spot to stop by for a scoop of ice cream! it’s been a staple of W. Hartford Center for many years now, and I’m grateful that it’s maintained such a long-term presence. The staff are always friendly, kind, and very efficient! The price is a little steep, but so is everything in West Hartford these days.

Overall, there’s a good selection of ice cream! I consume only dairy free ice cream, and usually they will have at least 2 to 3 flavors. The selection of dairy ice cream flavors is more expansive, and they truly have something for everyone in terms of taste. Their shakes and smoothies also looked delicious as well!

Unfortunately, the line is usually extremely long in the summer. The last time I was there, in late June, the line stretched all the way out the door. There were only two employees working, and they seemed quite young. They were doing a wonderful job, but it looked like a lot to juggle. In the warmer months, it may be helpful to staff more people due to the sheer volume.

I wanted to mention something that occurred at my last visit that concerned me. The line was extremely long. The couple in front of us had two medium-large sheepdogs. The dogs were extremely anxious and nervous being in such a long line and in a small and cramped space. They were clearly not doing well. A staff member kindly asked the couple to bring the dogs outside. They were obviously not service dogs as they had no vest or badge and were clearly not trained to be calm in stressful situations. The couple then proceeded to lie and say they were service animals. The staff dropped it, but I feel that a sign may be helpful for the front door stating service animals only. It was uncomfortable to see these dogs in distress in such a small shop, they were whining and very anxious.

Just wanted to give my feedback! Keep up the good work (-:“

“I used to go to this Chinese restaurant 20 years ago when I was a teenager and lived in CT. Fast forward 25 yrs and I still will only come to this place for Chinese food after moving back! These guys make some truly yummy food and they're extremely kind. Thank you Triple Star for still being here!

Vegetarian options: They have lots of vegetarian options which they allow you to customize.“

“We were told of Blue Plate Kitchen by a friend. My son attends Univ of Hartford and every time I fly east to visit - at least 1 breakfast is here. Food is great and the people are attentive and nice.“
