“I wanted to visit my ex coworker Zach @ J Gilberts and maybe get a Burger cuz that's what I had my only time there and its one of the best burgers I've ever had. Plus I didnt want to go too crazy. But when I got there Zach told me about the 16Oz Dry Aged Kansas City Strip Steak Special that they had. I decided to go all out cuz I wantedto see if their steaks measured up to their reputation. Zach recommended a Pinot Noir from Washington that was a perfect pairing for the steak. I gotta say the green beans that I had with a jam and crumbled pecans were insanely good with the garlic mashed potatoes. AND the steak had a nice charred exterior with a perfect juicy medium rare interior. I decided to treat myself and if you are ever thinking of doing the same go to J Gilberts and ask for Zach....you won't be disappointed....you will have one of your best restaurant experiences of your life!”
“I was surprised when we got there, looks like a super typical town-y pizza place tucked in a somewhat dingy plaza. The inside is bright, clean, and not at all what I expected. The service was friendly and very fast. There was a steady stream of patrons but staff kept up well, all seemed to be having a good time. The meatballs in vodka sauce were delicious. Fettuccini Carbonara was flavorful and well balanced. I personally would have had more sauce, but I will just request that for next time. Ravioli are huge and generously stuffed. Highly recommended for a high quality Italian experience in an unassuming location.”
“Stopped in during happy hour and had the most delicious bowl of pasta with a pork ragu. Way better than I expected! Server was great and there was a reasonable selection of wines by the glass.”
“Everything is delicious!!! Everything!!The wait staff is the best!Waiting in line is worth it!Remember one line only!! Don't even try to cut! Lol!Wheelchair accessibility: It would be very tight but doable!I'm sure they would help get it done if needed. Its just crowded and the hallway is narrow.”
“Just found this Birch Hill two weeks ago and we've already been twice! Absolutely love the food, atmosphere and staff they are so friendly (almost forgot to mention the drinks. .excellent) Cassie especially made our evening great by accommodating our large group!”
“I have been a faithful Tapas customer since their West Hartford/Elmwood location. Food is delicious and always so fresh. Can't speak about the desserts other than the baklava, which is also always delicious. The only downside is the takeout only option.”
“First time I went to this restaurant I was blow away. But the last few times it's been a disappointment. Great culinary ideas with bad execution. So sad. I hope things can change around for them.”
“100% one of the best mexican restaurants in the state. The margs and tacos are special.Be prepared to wait a long while to get a table regardless of when you go (they don't take reservations)”
“This place is a hidden gem! The quality of the meals are excellent and the pizza is good too! When possible the owners use fresh veggies from their garden. Oh and the prices are reasonable.”
“This place is a hidden gem. Food is always good. Service is fantastic -- K, K and A are always awesome!This is a great spot in the summer when the deck is open to have a drink or appetizer outside.I also have to give ten stars to their Winter Brunch menu -- we went here just the past weekend and it was hands down the BEST brunch we've ever had in town or when traveling. Everything was excellent -- highly recommend the frenched toast. My husband said the Bacon Egg and Cheese he had was the best ever. They are doing it all right!”
“Scrumptious pizza. Hearty and nourishing. Foxy was recommended to me by a neighbor and I now recommend it myself to both family and friends. Thank you for feeding us such delicious food with a smile ? Do I wish it was cheaper? Yes, but you get what you pay for.”
“Pizza is so incredible. Stumbled across this place on the way home from a trip and was not disappointed. The owner Shannon has extraordinary customer service! The Big Mac pizza is to die for. We drive thirty minutes to come to this spot. Hot, fresh, and quality pizza.”
“Quirky, but neat layout. The arrangement does allow for a quiet atmosphere. Impressive wine selection. Ahi Tuna was perfectly prepared. Definitely will return.”
“I love El Polla Guapo. I usually go to the Newington location close to home, but met a friend here. I love the space in the back and it was easy access. Will come back.”
“Solid food and great atmosphere. The fish really was cooked beautifully and the staff was top notch. Yummy fish and chips.Today we had a couple of apps and they were quite tasty. Calamari was really solid and my buddy got the Buffalo shrimp. They had a special swordfish entree with Lobster risotto and it was really quite tasty. Solid work per usual.Delicious clam soup and salmon dish. The spetzel (sp) was fun and unexpected. Also decent pours for your gin on the rocks. Bombay would be proud. A little heavier handed would be appreciated but better than many places. The burger looked great and the chicken parm was large and tasty. Some of my buddies shared some bites at today's group lunch”
