15 Best American Restaurants near Hartford

“I had the pleasure of dining here while on a work trip. I sat outside to enjoy the amazing weather but the inside looked very welcoming. Welcomed with a smile from all of the staff. Gary was great at telling me about the dishes and a little Thyme history. Food was delightful, perfectly seasoned and fresh. Make sure you save room for dessert and if you didn’t like me and they have bread pudding grab one to go. You won’t be disappointed! Hope to see you next Thyme!!!“

“Chicken Carlo was good. Large portions. Came with fries and half of a fried chicken. Chicken was delicious and juicy but the fries were overcooked. My wife had spinach and black bean lasagna it was overcooked and dry out crispy and not tasty. Should have sent it back but it was long in waiting to be served. Portions was small.“

“This was definitely a good choice for us! The food was absolutely amazing and the chocolate lava cake was wayyyy to good. Our server, Ilena B. was so sweet and nice, very friendly and was right on top of things without being in our faces all the time. We enjoyed talking to a Buckeye fan! O-H… she knows what’s next! 5 stars for everyone and the food and service. Everyone was pleasant! Thank you for making our trip from Ohio great. Deana and Melony“

“I always appreciate 110 Grill. We have a family full of allergies and they are fabulously accommodating. Tonight we had service by Mira in West Lebanon,NH and she was the best waitress I have had in so long! Constantly clearing wrappers from the kids, brought drinks before we asked and was so sweet.“

“I was a regular here for almost five years before the rebrand. There was a period where I used to eat here twice a week for lunch. I primarily ordered on the app and occasionally ordered in person. I don't think much has changed since the new owners took over. The food is affordable and comes out quickly when you order over the app. The quality is pretty consistent and the rewards program is good. There is one thing, however, that has prevented me from being a regular like before.

The lack of explicit, easy options (like the old elote style, modern mexican style, etc.) has been a big reason I haven't been back often. I recognize that in rebranding, the new owners likely cannot use the same ingredients and names that Boloco used to. Still, easy options help when I am tired and hungry during my short lunch break and want to order without thinking, whether that be on the app or in person. I don't want to punch in everything on the app or have to remember my order in a line with twenty other hungry people behind me rushing to get their food. When I had gone in after the rebrand, neither the menu nor food containers had labels saying what my choices were, so it also made it hard to tell in a rush what everything was. This was also made more difficult because some options that existed before the rebrand were no longer available.

My suggestion is to have a few basic bowls or burrito styles that can be ordered at a glance. It's standard practice at every other place I've been to that serves customizable bowls. Doing this would remove my reason for not returning often.“

“Pine is the restaurant for The Hanover Inn, Dartmouth’s charming hotel located in the heart of downtown Hanover and overlooking The Green. Pine’s location, elegant atmosphere, and service were excellent; the food was just alright. I enjoyed my salmon dinner, but my dad was disappointed by the size of his scallop dinner, given the high price. There are not many options here for kids, either, so beware. Overall, I would recommend this place for an elegant meal out, but be prepared for a high bill and small portions.“

“I work in a restaurant so I know that reviews are often flat-out wrong. Usually the only people that are going to go out of their way to leave a review are the type of people who like to complain and need to be heard. So, you don’t have to believe me but this is my second time here and this place is great. Go ahead and give it a chance. Good vibes, great menu, a flavor that Woodstock desperately needed. They’re open daily and have a parking lot- also a rarity in this town. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten free options, and the staff is nice, outgoing, and efficient. I wouldn’t take a star away for this but the only thing they’re missing is Long Trail Ale on draft. Just saying.“
