“Gino’s Original Pizzeria solidified itself as a classic for my go to pizza cravings. Gino’s recipe for their Sicilian style pizza is not only flavorful, but never disappoints as the taste is consistent throughout each visit. To top it off, a slice of pepperoni or cheese cost 3$, and one slice is more than enough to satisfy. Definitely a recommendation to others.“
“Great atmosphere! Came for pre-turkey day trivia which also was a blanket drive-- good cause! We like ciders and sours so did a flight with Sucker Punch'd and Scorpion Bowl being our favorites! Service was fast, friendly and helpful (the keg of scorpion kicking with my pour so they have me another of my choice, which was awesome). Would def stop in again!“
“One of my favorite go-to breweries in New Britain! Have only had good experiences with the service here, everyone's always very friendly and personable! Great spot for big groups, as it's super spacious. Also, dog friendly!! My little guy loves to join me and my friends for a night out, enjoying his own special dog beer! The human beers are great too with a large selection, highly recommend!!“
“Could this spot be any cooler? I grew up knowing all the lore around Dudleytown so this brewery was a must-try. They have food trucks but you can also bring in your own food/snacks. The beer is...wow. So good. The stouts are especially delectable. The place is huge and the outdoor space is beautiful but it was January when we went so we didn't sit outside. But I can't wait to go when it's warm. This place is a vibe for sure.“
“We hired Blue Chip Creamery for an employee appreciation event and we were not disappointed. The ice-cream was delicious and the driver (unfortunately forgot her name, very sweet blonde woman) did a great job keeping up with the orders. The pricing was very fair and the flavors were very unique, people loved the different options! The staff were also super accommodating to our last minute attendee changes. Would 10/10 recommend this truck for any event.“

“My favorite is the salmon and Rasta pasta (spicy). Food is great and service as well.Located downtown Hartford. You can take it to go or eat in. Cozy little place. I come from New York at least once every two months to get my food from this establishment“
“Super cute business and they do a lot of different events inside of the room. They have a lot of different beers on top and very friendly staff. I love the little pop-up events that they do. I think it's a super unique spin to having along with the beer and everything is just a fun vibe altogether definitely recommend this place has good prices and everything.“
“Hidden in the corner, somewhere in Newington. Tokyo Cafe was a pleasantly delicious and wholesome surprise. My partner and I decided to venture out and try somewhere new and we may have just found our new regular spot.The dining room doesn’t have too much seating (6-8 tables max) and I would definitely consider it an intimate but cozy vibe. We frequent sushi of all calibers, this isn’t meant to be compared to Nobu or other establishments of the sort. It is an excellent neighborhood sushi restaurant.The food was fresh and delectable . My partner really enjoyed the Kani Salad as an appetizer. She said it was unique in taste and refreshing. I had a house salad with ginger dressing and the miso soup which was just what I wanted and what you would expect. We also shared the Pepper Tuna Tataki ??? absolutely delightful. I must mention all from the dressing to the consistency of the kani salad, this wasn’t the generic all you can eat, run of the mill spot.The very nice lady that waited on us was very attentive and put care into her work. The Sushi Itamae delivered with a beautiful presentation and construction of the “Sushi Sashimi Combo 4 Us”. We finished the meal off with some fried ice cream and left happy and full. I would recommend this place and we will be returning.“
“Went before a Wolfpack game and they did a great job handling the crowds but happy we had a reservation since there was a wait due to multiple things at the XL center - great to see Harford so busy ! Had the rice bowl and hubby had the chicken wrap - wish everything was just a bit spicier since i ordered the spicy port with the spicy chili sauce. Started with a chicken appetizer with a honey mustard sauce - that was good too (no photo). If you have an option, don't order the fries with your meal. Seem to be just frozen steak fries that aren't cooked well enough Never went downstairs but heard the bathroom situation is strange from others in our group -can't even put TP in the toilet ? SMH“
“One of the best food places in west Hartford. Truly impressed with the chef’s talent. The flatbread was phenomenal- we got the wild mushroom which is drizzled in truffle dressing. An absolute must try, one of the best flatbreads I’ve had. The couscous is a staple and delicious but the prize went to the duck confit and wild mushroom ravioli. So much flavor, and the ingredients compliment each other very well in this dish. The only somewhat down side is that it is a smaller space, so you may require a reservation“
“I'm back in CT and love love love ice cream. Woke up craving some so I found this spot in Wethersfield. I had Blackraspberry Oreo with Campfire Smores it was deliciousssss ???. Like so freaking good!! As soon as I finished I couldn't wait to go back. Def will be trying everything they have especially the milkshakes. Next time I'm def getting marshmallow fluff as a topping. If you live in CT and haven't been there yet you're sooo missing out!!“
“I came in here on a Saturday afternoon when I was in town for the Hartford Marathon. It wasn't too busy and it was easy to find a seat. I ordered a flight and a half order of nachos. The half order was a large portion and they did not skim on the toppings!“
“My daughter's fiance and I went to the brewery today (Monday) to try out their beer and were going greeted at the door by Ryan whom we found out was the co-owner and and head brewer of Urban Lodge. He informed us the brewery was closed but upon finding out ny daughter's fiance was from out of town he offered to not only give us a history and tour of the facility, but he said he wanted to share their product with us to take with us. After providing our feedback on what varieties we might enjoy, he offered to give us a tasting of Open Trail which we loved and gave us a 4 pack to go of Stowe Away, Holiday Hoolpa, Pop Stout and Fireside. We later sampled all of the selections Ryan provided and they are all excellent. Ryan's customer service and the hands on attention he gave us on a day they were closed turned this 1st visit into a memory my fiance and I will treasure.“
“Awesome brewery and beer. Backeast is also very creative with new beers and trying different ways to mix them. I personally like to see new things to try when I go to the brewery but still have those favorite staple beers they make. 5 stars“
“This place is one of my favorite restaurants to go out with the family enjoying good atmosphere food and pleasant service.This place is one of my favorite restaurants to go out with family enjoying good food, atmosphere and pleasant service.“
“This spot is one of my go to restaurants. The food is creative and locally sourced, there are fun specials, the cocktails are hit/miss. Service depends on how busy the restaurant is, it seems like the servers get relatively large sections so when it's busy you might not see your server for a while but they are very attentive when you can get a hold of them. The dessert and coffee is always very good!“
“Delicious homemade ice cream! I tried dark chocolate raspberry and mint chocolate chip both were very rich in flavor. They also have dairy free and Italian ice. Pricing overall was fairly standard. Staff was friendly. Both me and my friend enjoyed our ice cream. I came in the winter I can only imagine what this place would be like in the summer. I will definitely be back here. One of my new favorite ice cream places!“
“We hosted our friend’s Celebration of Life at WeHa. Cody was flexible with us about the date/timing of the party as it coincided with an already pre-planned event. Additionally, he was very responsive to our many emails! The venue was beautiful, and it was a great location to get 100 people together to raise a glass to our live who passed.“
“Incredible! Fabulous Food! Beautiful Setting! Superior Service! Wonderful Wine! Linguine was al dente and luscious with a yummy Crab Sauce! The Chilean Sea Bass was done perfectly and the sauce and accompaniments were just right! The Veal Medallions melted in your mouth and the sauce was sensational. The cappuccino to end the dinner was very creamy and smooth and I loved it!!!! It was perfect meals again at this fine restaurant. We recommend this restaurant highly.“
“Best drip coffee around here imo… I’ve also tried their iced latte a while back and that was really good. Recently had a drip coffee from a certain coffee shop in Manchester ? that I have been to many times, and was struck by how much less I enjoyed it compared to story’s drip. Bakery stuff is not bad either. In terms of their specialty drinks, the ones I’ve tasted were too sweet imo . But if you just want drip coffee, this is the place“
“I cannot say enough good things about this food truck and the wonderful people that run it! Owners are sweet, kind and caring. I had the lobster roll and clam strip roll. My boyfriend had the spicy fries and fried pickles (he’s vegan). The lobster roll was out of this world! So delicious, warm and buttery! I was amazed at how much lobster meat they included! Clam strip roll was pretty delicious and the sides my boyfriend ordered were so yummy! Cannot wait to try the lobster grilled cheese next time. Thank you Lobster Tales for a wonderful experience! Do yourself a favor and try them out! You won’t regret it!UPDATE: I tried the Lobster Grilled Cheese and wow! Wow, wow, wow! What a blessing for my taste buds! They are geniuses! Years and plenty of trips later, I stand true to my word! The food is incredible, the staff is kind and it’s an experience you won’t forget!! You’re probably thinking, it’s just a food truck, it’s not a big deal. It IS a big deal! Not only are you blessed with delicious lobster rolls that are overflowing with lobster meat along with delicious sides and yummy soda, you are also met with the kindest owners and staff who treat you like family and like one of their own! I even had a chance to talk to the owner because she decided to take time out of her day to approach me and thank me for the kind words that I had mentioned as I grabbed my food. How often do you get that?? I am and will forever be a Lobster Tales food truck fan and have been telling everyone I know about them! They truly are too good to be true! I’m just so grateful to have experienced their kindness and enjoyed their ridiculously delicious food! They are worth the drive! Please try them out! ❤️ ❤️Btw, I have driven across state lines and have taken long trips JUST to enjoy their food. They are THAT good! You won’t regret it! Dietary restrictions: When we first tried them out, my boyfriend was vegan and they were super accommodating all while serving the most delicious and fresh food for him! He was beyond pleased! They are amazing!“
“Excellent place to go to. Great views of the first hole while having a meal makes it all worthwhile. Really good food (especially the burgers and fries) and friendly staff all around. Looking forward to future visits and some of that very good sweet tea again. ?“
“I used to stop by the Hartford location often, and recently ordered from the Glastonbury location. I forgot how much I love this place, specifically the PB and J bowl. The granola and peanut butter are everything - so, so YUMMY. I used to order it with soy or coconut milk, but this time I went with the oat milk and it was perfect. I'd be in trouble if I lived close by, but I am so happy Rush Bowls is available on DoorDash!“
“Really well crafted beers. The inside of the brewery is built and decorated to give you a warm, cozy feel. You will not feel like you're on Main St in EH. It made me feel like I was in a brewery in NH or ME. Worth the trip! Will definitely be back!“
