“11/20/23. Just can't wait to go back. The owner, Chelo and bartender, Frank are great people. The food is unbelievable. THE BEST bacon cheeseburger I've had in 10 years or more. The atmosphere is fun. Great crowd. 6 tv's. Chelo has really fixed the place up and is still making improvements. This is my new "go to" restaurant. I wish I didn't wait 2 years to finally stop in. Porcetta sandwich was great, too. Very reasonable prices. See you THERE! GaryD1/1/24...been back 6 times in the last month. The patrons are great too. Have made some friends that seem like I've known them for years. Every meal I've had is incredibly.“
“Party of 3. We shared 4 appetizers which were all exceptional. Calamari, octopus, crab cakes with Brussel sprouts and a salad. Followed by dessert. Presentation of food was terrific. The service was prompt and attentive. I'd definitely return.“
“Filets tips were amazing. The eggplant stack was good. It was a little loud but nice atmosphere. Service was ok little slow with drinks, they were just ok not amazing. I think he was new but very polite. Food came out fast.Above all I would totally go back!“
“They let us in and were so kind to us 15 minutes before closing when everyone else was already shut down for the night. We were on a roadtrip from Boston home to NJ and very hungry. The place is modern, new, clean, and welcoming. The food was very good. We had fried artichokes, steak tip tacos, stuffed clams, Caesar salad, Buffalo wings, and meatloaf. Everything is made fresh. Nothing was frozen. Portions were large so we took home leftovers. Pricing is affordable. The waitress was so gracious and attentive. She even brought us drink refills before we even asked. If you find yourself in the area I recommend you try this place.“
“Looking for a truly enjoyable dining experience? Visit Housatonic House! The warm, welcoming atmosphere, friendly service and tasty food make this place one of my favorites. Having eaten here a handful of times, I can tell you that their food is fresh and delicious. The burgers, salads, entrees and daily specials are fantastic. The servers are very attentive and pleasant (shout out to Ris, who always goes above and beyond!), and the owner, Mike, goes out of his way to walk around and check in on the customers. I highly recommend this restaurant - it's top notch.“
“Through he grapevine I heard Dew Drop Inn had the BEST wings in Connecticut, so I made my way here to try them out myself!Atmosphere/Appearance: Let me tell you. It's a windy road to get here. Lol. But set right at a very non-traditional intersection of North Avenue & Roosevelt Drive is this gem. The outside doesn't look like much at all and there's maybe 6 parking spots to the left of the restaurant then there's another business across the street that MAY allow you to park there. At your own risk of course. Once on the inside the spot looks super modern and energetic. The back wall is all brick, the walls are painted with solid colors and there's a lil' easter egg to the right of the front entrance of The Incredible Hulk busting through the wall holding a plate of wings. Lol.Service: We sat right at the bar and the owner Jason was there so he was serving us directly. He was funny, accommodating and just was a genuine good time. Hiba, Meghan and Rachel were also very accommodating.Food: So while here I tried 7 different flavors of the 126 that are offered. I'll break them down one by one...Pink Peppercorn Lemon Thyme: They came out of the kitchen SO HOT. Lol, so be careful not to burn your mouth. They were AMAZING. Deliciously salty from the Himalayan sea salt, lemony and rounded out with some good Earthy flavors.Pink Peppercorn Lemon Curd: This is basically everything I described above, but with a delicious sauce on top. The sauce was a little honey-strawberry-lemon sweetness that complemented the wing excellently.Cilantro Lime Tahini: The cilantro flavor was an excellent base, but this may sound strange... but it almost tasted like refried beans. There was also a good cheesy flavor involved as well. It was so different and executed very well. Not a spicy wing for those that can't handle it.Cajun Garlic Butter Bacon: These were easily the tastiest "looking" wings due to all of the bacon pieces on top and they smelled simply incredible. Again, temperature hot, but these tasted like they were cooked IN a garlic oil. My goodness. The bacon added a meaty, hearty, salty, bacon-y flavor that just went well with the garlic and Cajun seasoning.Truffalo: This one is easy. Truffle and Buffalo mixed together. Excellent. I'm truffle-biased so of course I'd love these, but I could've used more truffle if I'm being honest.Strawberry Habanero: These were refreshing.. The strawberry flavor was very prevalent and it reminded me of a sweet & sour from a Chinese restaurant, buy elevated. I didn't get a lot of heat from these despite the name, but I loved it.Ghostly Habanero: While I didn't find the heat in the last flavor, it was all here. This was the hottest flavor on the menu at the time and rightfully so. These wings were gritty, sweet from the peppers and the heat was INSTANT. The habanero gave that initial jumpstart of heat, but the ghost pepper is the one that ramps up over time. It took about 3 minutes for the heat to FULLY kick in, but it definitely did. I teared up, I was sweating and this is not a wing I could eat a whole bunch of. Delicious though!Peanut Butter & Jelly: These were the hottest temperature wings we've had. Lol. Peanut butter is so incredibly dense so it just held all of that heat in. These were served with fluff as a dipping sauce. They were savory and sweet. Done very well.Value: Chicken wings are already expensive on their own, so adding this level of skillset to cook them, the materials and all brings an order of 6 to $10.99 for "Basic Flavors". "Not So Basic" is 6 for $11.75 and "Basically Ridiculous" as well as "Dessert" wings are 6 for $11.99. You can of course order them in bigger denominations, but there are 100% worth it.In conclusion, sadly, I haven't been back here since June of 2022, but I want to come back SO BAD. It's just literally an hour away from where I live. Lol. I will be back Jason! Thank you for everything.“
“I recently visited Crazy Horse Axe Throwing…. what a great night! There were six of us and we opted for one of the virtual lanes so we were able to choose different “games” and throw axes at zombies, ducks, etc. This was my first experience with axe throwing so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. The owner/instructor, Lenny is amazing… he took his time to show us how to properly handle and throw the axe; I felt comfortable asking for help as a first-timer. Even our friends who have axe thrown many times, learned a few tricks! When you visit, make sure you wear closed toe shoes. Not thinking, I wore sandals - fortunately one of my friends had sneakers in their vehicle. The place is in a small plaza and may not look like much from the outside, but it is really nice inside. Very clean and the bar is gorgeous! They also have a billiard area if you’re interested in playing pool. Everyone had a great time and we can’t wait to go back!“
“This is an amazing restaurant! I had the Sammy Salmon and the food was amazing. Super fresh and seasoned to perfection. The kids meals are also a great portion for kids, my daughter is 8 and wasn’t able to finish her plate. For dessert we had the Tres Leches Cake and it did not disappoint, super moist and just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely recommend for the entire family!“
“Took too long to get noticed at the bar 1st time 25 to 30 min and only after gestures were made more apparent to get noticed was the party service, and the second time attention had to be made clear service was needed ? shouldn't have to press to get attention to spend your money. Overall, I loved the place ❤️ had a fun time. didn't try the food this time , but I'll be back for a Smurder next time I'm there. Lots of very pretty women in the house ? ?“
“This was a first visit to House of Naan for my wife and I, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We ordered onion bhajis, naan bread, and chicken Madras and Jalfrezi. The level of heat is to order, and my wife had the mild Jalfrezi while I upped the spice a bit on my dish. Both were excellent, and the bhajis were crisp and well seasoned. The portions were large enough to leave enough for lunch the next day. I'm sure I would have enjoyed the kheer or a mango lassi, but I left more than full. Next time!“
“My friend & I were in the area and stopped in for the first time. The staff were super friendly & attentive. We were able to be cozy on the couches and ordered wine flights - loved the variety! The cheese box was also so good to pair with the flights. We were full on wine & cheese. Such a cozy vibe for local drinks & a wine down. Will definitely be returning!“
“It’s a “ Different “ pizza can’t compare it to other Pizza’s places it’s in its own league! Taste WAYY Better if you eat there . Very thin so gets cold QUICKLY. If Taking home “ If ordering to take home ,have them cook it half way then finish cooking at home in “
“We visited My Bar & Grille for the first time with friends a few weeks ago. Was a great atmosphere, the food and drinks were all good, and the staff was friendly and courteous. Would certainly recommend My Bar & Grille for anyone visiting downtown Milford.“
“This is a great place to host a private event. The restaurant had plenty of space for our group of 30 in a private room. The brunch platters were large and fairly priced. Overall, the brunch food was good, but average. We would recommend visiting Stonebridge for their lunches and dinners, which look amazing. The coffee was on the weaker side, so I recommend skipping it and going straight to a mimosa.Parking: Parking is a bit of a nightmare due to the limited lot sizes and the extreme popularity of the restaurant.“
“Amazing food and people, Sam and Wade are the best in the bizVegetarian options: Gluten free crust also!Dietary restrictions: Open to all modificationsParking: Open lot, at night they are the only business to use itKid-friendliness: Pizza and pool tableWheelchair accessibility: Ramp and ground level, large restrooms“
“Had a bridal shower @ Gusto’s on 6/3. The food and service were amazing. We chose not to pay the extra money per person for bringing in our own dessert, so we ordered the cake through Gusto’s which was delicious! The cookies ordered by Guso’s were left by many of my guests on the table as they were stale. Being Italian, I was very embarrassed and brought it to the manager, Ellen, attention the next day and she was going to talk to the manager. She checked with the “bakery” and they said the cookies were fresh. My suggestion is bring your own cookies and pay the addional $2.00 pp, you’ll be happy you did. I have not heard back from her or the owner, as Ellen said I would hear back in a day or two. ☹️. 4.9 for FOOD, SERVICE and CAKE. 1 for COOKIES.“
“Great bar with great people!! It gives you Cheers vibes everyone is so friendly and inviting!! And the food is delicious!!! I haven't had anything that I did not enjoy yet!! You want great wings, huge chicken tenders, a lobster roll, soup, steak and cheese and or a quesadilla... they have it all!! Yes this bar has soup, amazing homemade soups!! But the nachos...top notch noone has chips like these!! Homemade, light, crunchy and fried to perfection!! You want your nachos layered right this is where you go!!!! Go see for yourself! Try the Cruz comfort bowl and add chili ?! Update: Ordered the turkey club with sweet potato fries enjoyed every bite!!! This place never disappoints!!!“
“In my opinion, this restaurant has the best food in the area. Im talking all of New Haven County and then some. Everything is absolutely delicious, the prices are very reasonable, and the atmosphere is great. Not to mention, customer service is great. I highly recommend. You won't be disappointed.“
“1st time at Hook and Reel! DELICIOUS!!! I could barely eat it all, so much food!! I had the crab cluster with shrimp and scallops and the Hook and Reel sauce. It was a combo of Old Bay, Cajun seasoning, lemon Pepper and lemon butter sauces. Yummy!! Our server was great, the host who seated us was friendly and even the guy that brought our food. Notice the picture!!! 1st on list next time I visit CT!!“
“Dive Bar is “my favorite place”, top of the list,cream of the crop. I’m a frequent regular and have shared my love for the Dive Bar with my close friends and family with “check in” pots and pictures since it’s inception twelve years ago. Chris and his Staff are top notch, so friendly and welcoming they make you feel right at home immediately. You can always catch a good ballgame or interact with Bar Bingo and enjoy some great music from talented musicians from time to time. If you know, you know ! If not? What are you waiting for? You gotta get here“
“The lodge reminds me a lot of cheers! You walk in, and everyone starts to know your name… The weight staff is always very friendly and often strike up a conversation which I find something special these days. The food options are always great, and there are always a few specials on the list that catch someone’s eye. The draft beer choices are always rotating and changing which is great; often locally sourced. The bar area is always bustling, and offers a free pool table for patrons. There is also a large covered outdoor dining area for fair weather eating.“
“Great place, great food, staff very nice. Only reason didn't give 5 stars all around was atmosphere-more of a sports bar atmosphere not really my thing and not from the area so felt kinda like a newbie. Service was a bit slow but it was pretty busy. Fries were cold when I got them but they made a whole new huge batch and they were absolutely delicious! Best drink and food prices anywhere I've found! We will definitely be back!“
“I’ve been here for lunch and dinner and I haven’t had a disappointing meal. Totally love they’re lobster bisque soup, must be made from scratch. They’re grinders I’ve enjoyed several very good. The pre meal bread with garlic oil is amazing. I could keep going, plan to keep coming “
“@Sandy B I am a Pacific Islander and a 5th Dan master belt in Tang Soo Do. What you witness was him talking to his girlfriend about her karate life. So you saying he is racist is uncalled for and insulting to a fellow Pacific Islander. I would suggest you learn the facts before you speak. My family and friends would continue to recommend Whiskey Barrel as it is a great establishment with great food and service. I want to thank the staff for all their hard work every single day.“
“The staff here make it a point to make me feel personally welcome, and other patrons are friendly as well. There are sometimes live bands, never with a cover charge, at least of the times I've been there. They have a TouchTunes so you can play music on nights there isn't a band. Kitchen is not open very late, I think only until 9:00pm (might vary by night). They have three or four table where you can shoot a round of pool. There is a large scenic outdoor patio where you can enjoy the fresh air and have a smoke. Cash only; they have an ATM if you need.“
“Really nice place. Big outdoor area with 4 separate fire pit spots and a lot of picnic tables. The inside is just as big with two fireplaces. My only issue with the place is they do not let you try a beer before buying it. I'm not sure if that is the policy or the beertender just didn't want to bother letting us (wife and I) try any. We probably would have stayed longer if we were able to try some beers I never had before. They also have a full bar area.“
“One of the best bars you can sit at. So social, a bit old school (in the good way). It’s the bar you hope to sit at when alone because you’re not alone when you take a seat here. Good food, great people and a live area.Big shout out to Mark and Laura who made my time here fun and enjoyable!“
“I drive a considerable distance just to come visit Bobbi the bartender. She’s the best around! Funny, fast, excellent. It’s also hard to find such a welcoming fun crowd and cheap drinks anywhere else. The new owners are regularly around and you won’t have to look hard because they’ll greet you with a smile. Great guys. Can’t say enough great things about this great place. Only thing that would make it better is if they had a karaoke night!!!!“
“First time here. I'm from out of town and stoped by. The owner Kris is friendly, welcoming and easy to talk with. Locals are friendly as well. I don't come around this area often but next time I am even remotely close, I will stop in again.“
“Sad. No one wants to attend to you. Need new bartenders who enjoy the art of mixology and people. ...,. Heavy D is in the kitchen. This season hopefully the outdoor patio will be expanded and muscle marinara mimosas could be served on Sunday mornings. Looking forward to it. I love this place.“
“This is a little pub that has been around since 2023. This is my first time going here since they've opened. I have to say I hope they stay around for a while. We got the sweet potato fries, the buffalo Parmesan wings, and wings with the water street sauce. I would highly recommend both! The wings were fried to perfection and the amount of sauce was perfect! Not dry at all. This is my new go to spot for wings!“
“I came here with my parents for Father’s Day and had such a nice experience. The place was clean and not too busy, the staff was super helpful and kind, and the golfing simulation was a lot of fun. My dad had a great time, can’t wait to come back here again!“
“a true diamond in the rough! i drove by this establishment almost everyday for the last 10+ years and finally stopped in. the owners/bartenders treated me like family from the moment i walked in and the menu is exceptionally reasonably for the quality AND portioning you receive. i cannot say enough good things about my first experience here…i WILL be back soon!“
“Magical find in an unassuming small town! I'm so grateful that Yelp steered me here when I was passing through from out of town. Perfectly seasoned, deeply flavored rabbit casserole. Excellent Portuguese wine and olive oil. Impeccable, friendly service.“
“We are staying in the hotel here.On our first night staying here on Monday, we just wanted to know we had dinner sorted so we ate here.The food was absolutely delicious.It is a little bit more than we'd normally pay for a meal but well worth it.The quality of the food and the service is second to none.We liked it so much we ate here again tonight.Dietary restrictions: We have our breakfast here every morning whilst we're staying. I need dairy free milk and every morning they get me some. It's no trouble.“
“Just an awesome pool hall! Went to watch the PPL tournament and they did an incredible job putting it together. Jayson and Ara have created a great place and you won’t find better food in a pool hall anywhere!!! I’d give them 20 stars if I could!“
“Such a neighborhood gem of a place! It continues to evolve throughout the years while maintaining the same character and charm coupled with great clientele you appreciate! Been visiting for 20+ years and always make it a must stop on my trips back to CT. Cheers to everyone here!“
“Happy hour was great! Mellow atmosphere with good music. I had wings and mozzarella sticks which were very good! I recommend trying out Strawberry Henny (you’re welcome)We had Rosa, and she provided great service! Definitely will be revisiting. :)“
“I guess ill never know how good the food is or atmosphere is... I walked into the restaurant and noticed 3 people or customers at the bar. With no bar tender to my left I saw 2 employees and walked to wait in line for a table to their and my left. To my anger i stood there for a few minutes and 1 employee was on the phone and the 2nd employee was just standing looking at her.i was hungry and remained so as I gave up being grated let alone Seated so I left the restaurant... I hope the restaurant changes their customer service soon.“
“This place is really nice. It has such an eclectic menu. All the food is fresh. The atmosphere is very welcoming. Sometimes they have live bands. Their drinks are really good too. You're definitely in the show and area. Check it out and in the summer there's lots of outdoor seating with beautiful scenic views of a river“
“Cassie is the star of the show for taco Tuesday!The tacos are cheap and her service has repeatedly been spectacular! She makes her customers feel comfortable and at home. Come grab a drink and some tacos on Tuesday with Cassie, you’ll leave smiling… guaranteed!“
“I never heared about this restaurant. We didn’t have a reservation. In my opinion this restaurant is amazing , food is great , service good , drinks good. We had Passion fruit caphirina , shrimp ceviche , angus burguer , chicken and cheese empanada. Delicious. I love the decor and atmosphere , live music , and the bar looks pretty nice. I think was a little be busy at that time but not bad at all , was Thursday I was surprise. maybe I didn’t like where we were sit or how they set the tables but was not bad at all. Yes I recommend. I had a good time there.“
