Restaurants in Willimantic

“The food at Gallo's is by far the best I've had in the area. They took extra care with our vegetarian quesadillas, creating an off-menu special with mushrooms, onions, and peppers, all freshly cooked and packed into fresh and tender corn tortillas. They will make anything in a veggie version and also do gluten-free. The storefront restaurant is modest but has a warm feeling. Gallo's has the feel of a community favorite and the food is made with love. Can't recommend this gem enough!”

“Always delicious and very kind service! This is the closest I've gotten to my food back home, thank you!💯🔥”

“Loves it”

“Excellent selection!!!! Service was very quick and tasted amazing 😍”

“9/10 Chicken and the biscuits are a must here. I will say the chicken is a little salty for me but again I have a big thing for no salty foods. It’s still extremely juicy and crunchy. (The honey mustard sauce also makes up for the saltiness a lot)

Another important factor: The biscuits and jambalaya with red beans and rice are chef’s kiss here. It’s the best I’ve ever had in a long time. Customer service is phenomenal here too and you can definitely tell that she cares. I will definitely be going back there again!”

“Absolutely delicious Pho! Can’t wait to be back!”

“I had an amazing experience at Limberia Tropical Algarete! The food was absolutely incredible—fresh, flavorful, and truly authentic. Every bite was packed with taste and clearly made with care. What really made the visit stand out, though, was the service. It was even better than the food! The staff was welcoming, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for great food and even better hospitality. Our family will definitely be coming back!”

“We love Willi Scoops. Such a friendly staff, great ice cream, cute shop, convenient location on Main Street. What's not to like? 5 stars acrpss the board!”

“Nice spot in Willo for people watching; always a menagerie moving about main st.
Deducted a star because the bagging engineer put my hot dogs in sideways and the chilli obv slide off and was a bit of a PIA to reassemble.”

“It feels like being home. Cozy and welcoming. The coffee and food is out of this world delicious.”

“Drinks were so delicious and amazing, the paninis were extremely scrumptious. The bread they came on were fluffy, buttery and savory. Then, we had the most amazing cinnamon roll which was flaky and buttery and truly the best roll I ever had in my entire life. I can't wait to go back. The staff was also so pleasant and like they were having fun together, I always like to see everyone smiling. :)”

“Great atmosphere and owners are good people”

“We have been coming to this pizza joint for five years. We love it. Although they recently started charging for dipping sauce alongside wings. A dollar for 2 ounces. 🤔”

“This place is amazing!!!
I stopped here today for the first time and will definitely be back again and again!!!
The flavor of the conches was so tasty!!!”

“Yes, I would go there again. The staff is very attentive and friendly. Don’t recommend the corned beef hash - while it tasted very good, it was the tiniest portion I’ve seen anywhere.”

“Reasonably priced drinks, friendly staff, fun and positive atmosphere. They have a pool table and darts. Kind of a dive, but that's part of the charm. Would recommend.”

“Arrived around 7pm so they were out of some of the meat options. Food was good however wish they would put some type of wet sauce over the Overload Mofongo dish as it was dry with the variety of meat . Rice was delicious as well as the Steak. Service was excellent and will definitely return.”

“I just had the BEST lobster roll I’ve ever eaten, bar none. Not only was it less expensive, it was larger than I expected. It was fresh, perfectly seasoned, plump, juicy and delicious. I can’t wait to return for another one!”

“Amiability and kindness to the customer. Fast and cordial communication with customer, restaurant have a very high quality of clean representation. Quality of the food is excellent fresh and tasty 😋”

“One of the better buffets I have ever been to. Food was actually hot. They always brought out fresh food. Plus there is a lot of food to choose from.”

“Great food great beer great staff!”

“I’m always stopping by for food or a quick snack and they are always so welcoming! Good food quality and the workers always brighten my days when I stop by!”

“I had a great experience here, especially considering it was late at night. The staff welcomed me when I walked in and treated me just like any other customer, which I appreciated.

The ice cream was delicious, and the staff were knowledgeable about the products. They were able to answer my questions about different flavors and provide helpful information about the flavor profiles, which made choosing something much easier.

One thing that really stood out to me was the staff's work ethic. During slower periods, I noticed everyone staying productive—cleaning, organizing, and taking care of other tasks rather than sitting around on their phones. That may seem like a small thing, but it made a very positive impression.

The cherry flavor I chose had a natural, enjoyable flavor and didn't have the overly artificial taste I've experienced with some other ice creams. The portion size was appropriate for the price, and I felt the overall pricing was reasonable.

Overall, great service, good-quality ice cream, reasonable prices, and a staff that clearly takes pride in keeping the place running well.

I would definitely recommend stopping here and will be back!”

“By far, the best food we've had since relocating from out of state . If someone likes crab Rangoon and lo mein as much as I, you have to try theirs. Everything was delicious . Trust me on this.”
