“First time for everything and first time for trying this local spot. Food was fresh and excellent. The bacon egg and cheese on a roll is on par with the other amazing delis in our humble town. The service was very good to top the cherry. Might be worthwhile to become a full time customer on the way to work. Only downfall is they open at 7am could improve opening times for the working crowd men.“
“LOVED THE FOOD!! I got a salad here that was very yummy and all the other food was a hit too! Love coming here because the environment is really refreshing. The people working here are always nice and the manager seemed very friendly and down to earth. 10/10“
“Solid 5 star dining! Lovely little diner style building, very affordable and a great selection of food, awesome staff. Highly reccomended and I will absolutely eat there again. We came in with a large group and they managed to accommodate us at short notice.“
“Went her for happy hour sat down very quickly got water and the menu we went for the calamari and pretzel stick appetizer the pretzel stickers were perfectly season and tasted amazing the calamari was perfectly cooked and the sauces were amazing I got the chicken sandwich which was amazing chicken was juicy and the chipotle sauce was so good!!!“
“If you’re a foodie like me, you’ll love this place! The menu has an array of both traditional and eclectic southern style dishes.My guest was hesitant to sit on the side by the window, so I took that seat (well insulated)and was very comfortable. We were promptly greeted by our server Chris G. He took He took my drink order, however, my guest was undecided, so she proceeded to quiz him incessantly about everything on the menu from the cocktails to the dinners and appetizers . I was a bit embarrassed. Thank goodness he was extremely patient, he literally accommodated her every request with grace!!We tried the shrimp and grits and it did not disappoint. The shrimp was plump, tender and fresh, we chose the cheddar grits! They were creamy and complemented the dish perfectly. I went with a short ribs. They were so delicious I took the last piece of bread in the basket to “sop” up the sauce. For dessert she had poached peer . pair and I went with an espresso martini.I just spoke with her yesterday , which prompted me to finish my review. She has eaten there now three times friends and she looks all the way up in Milford.hats off to proprietor AND chef-Kudos to the entire team!“
“What a cute little place. With snow on the ground the setting could not have been more picturesque. We shared the Warm Brussels Sprout Salad, a Pasta with Eggplant and the Salmon. All were very yummy. If I was to pick nits, the Salmon could have used a little more zing.“
“We had the mediterranean bowl to share it was fantastic! The lobster skewers special with lemon-butter, were delicious, flavorful and well cooked. For our entrees we had the filet mignon, once again super delicious. We tried the gnocchi with sausage and chicken with vodka sauce and the cajun penne pasta. The berry berry crisp and cappuccinos to top our meal off. The server was attentive. We'll keep coming back.“
“Awesome that they are open for brunch/lunch as we have always been wowed by their food but used to only go for special occasion dinners. Everything we have tried on the menu has been delicious. The food is innovative and always amazing. And the atmosphere is fun, love their space. We always pop in to the British product shop next door after lunch to grab treats which is an added bonus.“
“I recognize that almost everyone rates this place 5 stars. We ordered two roast beef sandwiches for lunch and while they were good, they were a little too fatty and we were disappointed that they did not have the option of putting horseradish sauce on the sandwiches.“
“The service, the atmosphere, and the ambience of this establishment was 5/5. Our waiter paid much attention to our table and guests, making us feel very welcomed. He offered his professional opinion on drinks, specials, dinner options and dessert. The restaurant was extremely busy for a Saturday evening but the staff never missed a beat. They mingled with every table, making sure everything was up to expectations. From appetizers to wine selection, from entrees to dessert, nothing was less than perfect. As for us, we will definitely return! Thank you, Ridges for a lovely evening!“
“From the moment we arrived, to celebrate our 40th Anniversary, the staff couldn't have been more gracious and friendly. Our celebration began with a congratulatory glass of prosecco, compliments from the manager. Our dishes, appetizer to dessert, were delicious and cooked to perfection. Kudos to the staff at Flinders Lane for making our visit so memorable. We look forward to our next visit!“
“My wife and I just moved to downtown Stamford and were looking for a quick breakfast within walking distance from our new apartment. Came across Season's which is a quite small but quaint diner/restaurant. Liz our server was so nice and welcoming. Food was great and will be definitely going back again.“
“The first time we visited Boss Burger was last summer. The AC must have been stressed that day because it was uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant. That colored the experience and we were not impressed. It took us another 8 months to return, but I'm glad we did. The ambience here, with the small dining area, self serve drinks, TV sports, and tight tables is not the greatest frankly, but the service is friendly and the sirloin burgers and assorted fries are truly exceptional. And the burger presentation is great, with top quality meat and buns, and a terrific assortment of options to customize your burger. We will definitely be going back.“
“ZSTRICT (GolfZon) is truly a hidden gem! The staff has consistently been friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. The golf bays feature innovative movable floors that adjust to mimic the terrain of the course you're playing on, offering an engaging and impressively realistic golfing experience. Additionally, ZSTRICT offers a variety of game types and hosts weekly and monthly tournaments, providing a wonderful opportunity to meet a vibrant community of local golfers. Whether you're picking up a golf club for the first time or you're an experienced player, I highly recommend visiting ZSTRICT. It's a unique experience that shouldn't be missed.“
“I have said it before and I will say it again. Olio is far superior than any other restaurant in the area. Everything from the Octopus and the yucca fries to the chicken parm and the pork chop are some of the best I have ever had. This restaurant always pushes the limits of innovation and always has fresh quality products (including the ingredients) on its menu. What puts this restaurant over the top is the home feel that you get from Steve the owner and chef. From the moment you walk in till the moment you walk out you feel like you are family.Highly highly recommended.“
“Honestly speaking I would eat here before I eat at chick fil a. The customer service is awesome. The harmony within the business is amazing. Everything is very clean and fresh. Good music definitely a place you want to take your family to get a burger.“
“I came in after a great movie, Dune 2, feeling like a badass Rebecca Ferguson, Jessica the a Benne jesuit. The waitress, Ashley, our waitress got my vibe. She got some great calamari first. The burgers, yum! But Ashley. Ashley makes this place a badass landing spot for 65 year old women who really just want to be seen, heard and respected with a sense of joi devivre.“
“This diner just happened to be close to me when i was hungry. I was blown away with how clean it was and the customer service was amazing! Never once was i looking for a server! I had a breakfast burrito that was really good! I will definitely be back soon!“
“The did was fantastic!! We enjoyed the French onion soup, the hot dog and the smash burger!!-absolutely delicious!! For dessert… wow! The pretzels with chocolate syrup were great! Not too sweet, just right!! And the hot chocolate lava cake was wonderful! A great time to spend with friends!!!“
“Match is one of our favorite weekend spots to have great food and great ambiance. The service is generally friendly and great.The steak tartare is fantastic as an appetizer or main course. The pizzas are good for anyone from kid to adult.Parking: A large paid lot is located behind the restaurant.“
“A cute cafe located off the Main Street of Westport, but an absolute MUST try for anyone visiting. The ambiance is immaculate - very photo friendly with funky decor you can lounge on as you contemplate buying.The menu is Spanish tapas. I ordered the tortilla Española with goat cheese and arugula. It came with a well dressed side salad. Everything was delicious and fresh, and the service was upbeat and prompt. I didn't get coffee this time, but I will absolutely be back!“
“Best Family-owned business in Norwalk! Great people, great food, nice place to sit and eat.I HIGHLY recommend their chili dogs, chili burger, anything with chili on itParking: Parking lot is right behind the building. Plenty of spaces to park.“
“This is a local Springdale, favorite, and a tasty little bistro. We love the creativity that the chefs have, and each time we go back we enjoy a different meal. The wait staff is fantastic. if you are on Hope Street and find yourself hungry, stop by have a drink enjoy.“
“Unassuming place, personal attention from owners of this family-owned business. Huevos rancheros and everything else was delicious. Including grilled chicken and pancakes (with a mound of mango) for kids, Huge portions. Inexpensive. Love it. Will go back for dinner next time.“
“Very good quality food for a concession stand style burger sandwich shop. Definitely a huge few steps above your average park/beach stand. Has outdoor chairs with umbrellas and a large playground for kids next to it. Ball fields, tennis courts, the manager is kind and professional. Real bathrooms with running water not a beach cafe by any means! They offer kids meals with whole wheat bread, hummus for vegetarians, avocado to add to sandwiches. The fries are good. Ice cream for kids. Nice family friendly place.Kid-friendliness: Anything for kids here! Whole wheat bread options. Great place and playground and fields on site.“
“What a wonderful establishment! From the outside you are greeted by the old world Norwalk charm and continues on into the interior design. Wood trim, early twentieth century looking bar with modern touches, and a funky old floorplan that only exists in old cities.We were greeted by a server who was incredibly friendly and had the overwhelming task of working the bar and waiting tables at lunch time. She handled it with ease and charm.I ordered the BBQ rack of ribs which were absolutely amazing and gigantic! They came with a side of coleslaw, great, and shoestring fries, average fries. I would grab a rib and it would just slide out of the meat, now that's what I call tender. The ends were nice a crispy but moist inside. The BBQ sauce was unique and full of flavor.My mother had the Cobb salad which was one of the best I have seen in years.For dessert my mother had a cappuccino which she said was the best she ever had. We shared the ricotta cheesecake, if you are a true cheesecake aficionado you know ricotta makes the best cheesecake. This did not disappoint. It's probably been 15 years since I had one as good.“
“My go to place for breakfast every time. Cute convenient spot with great omelettes and piping hot dinner coffee served in a thick white mug just as god intended.Parking: Pull right to the back and park. In the summer time you can grab a cold Greek frappe coffee and walk to the back dock to the boats and crew practicing.“
“Absolutely delicious smoked salmon platter with gluten free bun, cream cheese, hard boiled egg, capers, raw sliced red onion and sliced tomatoes .. it was so delicious I can't wait to return!Service was excellent, atmosphere good .. the bathroom is a bit creepy ..Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“They plainly spell out what is gluten free on their online and in person menu, which makes dining out as a person with celiac disease much, much easier. The food was delicious. My only complaint is that the French fry portions could be a bit bigger.Dietary restrictions: Thank you for offering many gluten free choices, especially in apps and desserts.“
“On Sunday 3/17 my girlfriend and I attended Washington Prime to celebrate our anniversary. We were met by Webster who had our table prepared and ready for us to be seated. We ordered several appetizers and meals that were out of those world. The drinks and service was by far top 10 in Connecticut. Gillian and Webster went above and beyond to make our day a special day. We will return in a few weeks to enjoy another 5 star meal and service. Thank you sooooooooo much for making our special day an amazing one.“
“We walked in early on a Saturday evening to see if they had a table for 4 (after the restaurant we had originally booked looked grim...) and were immediately greeted with warmth and professionalism. They offered to create a 4 top for us in a quiet corner and whisked us to the table. The service and food that followed were both terrific. A great lesson in hospitality. Make people feel welcome and feed them terrific, straight forward food with attentive but not overbearing service and reasonable prices!“
“We were running late and when we call they accommodated us. It’s a nice chill diverse spot. I love Norwalk!. Hubby is a chef so I am always looking for a place to impress. This place did it. It’s a decent spot for just about any event. Get the wings, get the burger, get the drinks. My hubby said the linguini and clams were decent. The bread is fresh and delicious. Everything is fresh made. I will return to try more items and try the patio. Thank you for your hospitality. ;)“
“The Cottage has quickly become one of our new favorite restaurants in Fairfield county! We had a cozy date night here enjoying our seasonal dishes! We loved the green goddess dressing and brioche croutons on our “Cottage Salad”. The wagyu brisket bao buns were also a highlight, and it was our first time trying squid ink aioli, which really exceeded our expectations! My fiancé ordered the Berkshire pork tenderloin, which was cooked perfectly and even came with a knödel (similar to matzo balls), which we thought was a great pairing! Their hand-cut tagliatelle was exceptional with lamb, labne, and a touch of mint. Desserts were equally as amazing as the rest of the meal! The broken meyer lemon tart was topped with a thick layer of meringue, and the devil’s food cake was topped with a bourbon caramel and paired with espresso mascarpone. The cocktails hit the mark as well, and I appreciated that they had a section for low/no alcohol drinks! Our experience at The Cottage was definitely memorable, and we highly recommend adding them to your list of restaurants to try in Fairfield county!“
“Oh my! As an insufferable foodie I was expecting the food to be good but didn’t think it would be SO…. WOW! The lamb ribs are phenomenal the scallops were insanely delicious The pork chop was perfection and the tuna seared to perfection we finished with the chocolate Budino of dreams the entire meal was phenomenal Serious 5 ⭐️ dining“
“We love this place!!! Not only is the food super fresh, healthy and delicious but the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Whether dining in or having it delivered - we’ve never been disappointed! So happy you are in Stamford!!Dietary restrictions: I’m gluten free and can eat almost everything here.Parking: So easy!“

“We had a delicious date night dinner out at The Spread. We sat in the covered, heated outdoor dining space and the lighting and fireplace made it very cozy and enjoyable. The food was delicious - we ordered smaller plates to share. The service was very attentive, almost to a fault. The bus staff was very on top of filling our waters the second we took a sip and taking plates the moment the last bite was taken. There were many staff members in the outdoor space that we felt that we were being watched as we ate, and they were ready to pounce and clear the table as soon as we finished something. We did feel rushed, which was the only downfall of the meal.“
“We stopped by here for a quick and casual bite. The place is reminiscent of an old English pub and the setting is comfortable and relaxed. I loved the fireplace in the bar area, which seemed cozy and intimate. I loved that the main dining area was free of TV's! It was very busy on an early Sunday evening with lots of people dining in but also lots of take out. We had perused the online menu before arriving and found the actual menu to be a tad different so be aware. The menu does offer a variety of options for everyone. We ordered the fish and chips and the chili. Our orders arrived in a timely manner. The fish was fresh tasting, flaky, and perfectly battered and fried. The chili was very good, although the cheese was melted on top---much like a French onion soup--which made it hard. I personally would prefer it not that way, but the chili itself had a slightly sweet taste and was enjoyable and so filling. Service was prompt and friendly. We found the prices to be reasonable and the portion sizes great. The parking lot was full so we had to use the adjacent church parking lot-a 1 minute walk-, but that was no problem. I would give this 3.5 stars.“
“Warm & welcoming, and a really nice meal. The turkey meatloaf is off the charts excellent, which is hard for turkey meatloaf to do but you will thank me later. The space feels in need of a modest makeover & the physical menus were a little beat up. I'll definitely be back, but hoping a few of these minor details aren't signs of complacency.“
“This place has consistently been a bedrock of good food and ambiance in Norwalk. Happy to see it's still doing well with all those things that make it great. The food is awesome ?, portion size is good, prices are fair and the table service is excellent.“
“Easy to make a reservation on a Friday night. The Hostess sat us right away and our Server was punctual in greeting us and taking drink orders. The drinks were well-balanced, not too sweet. We specifically enjoyed the White Bronco. The deviled eggs, pickles vegetables, chicken wings (chipotle honey), hush puppies, and chopped salad with chicken were all delicious. Our server was very attentive the entire evening and we felt very welcome and not rushed even towards closing. Thank you!“
“This was the best meal I ever had at a restaurant! Ditto for my husband also. The place was a bit noisy around the 5:30-6:30 dinner time, then calmed down after that. This was also the first time I had a hot fresh cup of coffee in a restaurant. It appears this is a popular place for friends and families to go. I am telling my family and friends the food is magnificent.Vegetarian options: I am vegan. The Crispy Brussel Sprouts were perfectly done and very tasty. The portion was large so I was pleased about taking some home. The kale in the salad was the most tender I ever tasted. The cranberries were slightly sweet, and there was avocado included in the Mediterranean Salad also, I added some of the Brussel Sprouts to the salad it was a perfect dish! My husband got a shrimp dish he enjoyed. The dessert was tasty and not overly sweet, I had a warm apple tart with Carmel sauce.My. husband got the chocolate Lava cake and loved it. The level of sweetness was perfect not over done. I had no guilt breaking my diet to celebrate our wedding anniversary! The staff are friendly and timely bringing your dinner and your bill in a reasonable amount of time.So go and enjoy this wonderful restaurant!“
“August 18, 2022 1st time at Trips and I thought the food was AMAZING , I should have ordered the Prime Rib, after I saw almost every table having it , and seeing friends of mine , their 3 children eating Prime Rib , I definitely know next time , but if you like chicken you won't be disappointed in the chicken francaise and their cheesecake super smooth.“
“Fantastic place with a cool oak bar. Excellent food with all kinds of meat cuts. Mediterranean forward food. Very good quality service and one of the best bar teams I've ever seen, and I'm a server and bartender. Also used to work here. They also have the coolest owner I've ever worked for. Doug reminded me a lot of Christopher Walken with a take no prisoners mentality. He takes great care of their customers and their staff. Just an instant Westport classic.“
“I luv the atmosphere from the wood burning fireplace and the exposed wood beams it’s just has a really cozy feel.There food is excellent I highly recommend there french onion soup and there burgers are great oh and there fried cookie dough is amazing I highly recommend this placeKid-friendliness: Great kids menu“
“I have have been coming here lately for the last 6 months taking my father here for lunch. Cherry Street has been a locals favorite for many years. The food has been consistently great and as advertised. The service is excellent and always makes you feel welcome and like a local. If you are looking for an excellent bar and grill this is the place.“
“Surprisingly, packed! Astonished to see how busy this place was but now I get it.Unique menu with a bunch of hashtags. I ended up ordering something I’ve never seen under the burger section but happy I did. The social burger was flavorful, juicy, and filling. Lots of different spices in the meat and it was little spicy with the sauce. The garlic fries were cooked perfectly and so tasty!Definitely worth checking out in the area but make sure to come early or be ready to wait!“
“One of the best Lamb burger I ever had in my life. Cooked medium to perfection.Fried oysters are also fresh and delicious.I wish I lived in Norwalk just because of this restaurant. Definitely going there next time I visit Norwalk and try their other dishes.“
“Lovely stop for breakfast or lunch. Kind of loud. Service was excellent. Main courses came before we finished our soup, but almost zero wait time for both courses. I had eggs, which were good. My friend had chicken pot pie which looked good. Note, signage to find the restaurant from Route one was not good. Even as I made my way inside, wasn't sure I was in the right spot. Will be back!“
“Stopped in and had the Jake burger which was great. I sampled the daily soup special which was a smoked bacon potato soup. It was one the the best soups I have had. The owner was terrific. The owner seemed to know it was my first time because the place was Full of regulars so I stood out. Great small place off the beaten path.“
