“I had the pleasure of meeting chef Santiago in New Haven a few days ago and all that I can say is that this man overflows with passion for great food, creativity, and a mind for hospitality.

I have not yet had the chance to dine in at River. But I am planning to do so the next time I'm in the area.

We had a great and jovial professional exchange about how nurturing ingredients both animal and plant increases their flavor profiles and textures. From free roaming pigs and chickens to wild herbs and naturally fertilized starches.

This man knows his craft and above all sees it as an ART. Which it is. My hat off.“

“Stumbled across this place after we got out of a concert, and seriously they have amazing food. The best fried pickles I have ever had. The food does take a minute to come out but its because they cook real food. Where we were sitting you could see the kitchen and you just knew the food was going to be good. The drinks were strong and the atmosphere was chill. The owner was walking around and just was super welcoming, the staff was attentive, you can't beat what you get for the price. Me and my husband are from out of state and we already said we would take a day trip just to go back here to eat.“

“We were in CT from SC for a wedding! We went in on Saturday to watch South Carolina Gamecocks football game. The manager and Kasha were awesome! The manager put the game on two of the big TVs in the bar area so that all of us from SC could watch. They were so attentive kind and supportive of the Gamecocks even though we lost. The manager don’t know his name sorry, and Kasha were amazingly kind! We went back Sunday morning for brunch. Food and service were spot on!!! I don’t know that I’ll ever make back to Connecticut, but I highly recommend going to red heat Tavern if you are in that area! Come to SC Red Heat Tavern!!! Thank again y’all for making us feel welcome!! ♥️♥️June and Jim Charleston, SC!“

“I made a reservation here on a Saturday for a date night with my wife and we had a great time. The atmosphere was cool. The service and food were all very good. (We had Cuban Sliders, Calamari and loaded plantain nachos). It was nice to have a unique restaurant experience for a change. It’s the type of place that everyone in the area should do at least once.“

“First time going to Stryker’s - came to see the fabulous duo/ band- had a wonderful meal with fabulous service- honestly not a place I would have normally gone to but everything was wonderful and we will definitely be back- great food, amazing service and fun night of music and really good food“

“If you go to Mancora and don’t get Julio as your server… you’re doing it WRONG. 💯🔥

We went to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday and Julio turned it into a whole EXPERIENCE. The energy? 10/10. The service? ELITE. The vibe? UNMATCHED.

He was on point the entire night—attentive, fast, super friendly, and just knew how to make everything feel special. It didn’t feel like regular service, it felt like VIP treatment from start to finish.

He made sure the birthday celebration hit different 🎉 and honestly, that’s the kind of service you don’t forget.

Mancora is already amazing, but Julio takes it to another level. If you see him, just know you’re about to have a great night.

We’re definitely coming back… and asking for Julio every time 🔥👏“

“My first time dining experience was excellent! Food was delicious, waitstaff very attentive and friendly.

“First time here, but I was very impressed by the food and service. I'm trying to eat a more plant-based diet and the veggie quesadilla was not only delicious, but extremely satisfying and filling. One of a few places that actually have blue cheese stuffed olives for martinis! Will definitely stay here again!“

“Club house on Main in Glastonbury has been a new spot that I have ventured to from time to time and found it always lively with staff that is equally lively, pleasant and attentive. Though there has been one server Nicole W who stood out during my last visit when I brought my kids to watch the Uconn game. I found her very attentive, caring and available before during and through out our time there. While our team Uconn lost we still felt as we won with our experience there under the care of Nicole. In fact we look forward to future visits in hopes we have Nicole W working with us again or someone with the same demeanor and even took the time to take a picture with us to seal the night!! Great experience!!
Thanks Club on Main
Jermaine and Family“
