“I’ve now been to Casadoro three times, and this latest visit was hands-down the best yet! This place has quickly become one of my favorite spots for Italian-American comfort food with a fresh twist. Great happy hour.The new bean and garlic dip is an absolute standout—creamy, garlicky, and loaded with herb flavor. Paired with their warm, homemade bread. We also got the Bianca pizza with shallots. The sweet caramelized shallots combined with the creamy base and crispy crust made it incredibly tasty and unique. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. Casadoro nails that cozy yet elevated vibe, and the food quality keeps impressing me more each time. Highly recommend for date nights, happy hour hangs, or just a delicious Italian meal. We’ll definitely be back soon—can’t wait to try more from the menu!”

“If you’re looking for Mexican food on the Berlin Turnpike in Newington, you have choices. If you want to sip margaritas out of a fish bowl and guacamole made table side then Puerto Vallarta and Azteca might be for you. If you want fast food from chain restaurants then there’s Chipotle and Moe’s. But if you’re looking for the best authentic Mexican fare the Berlin Turnpike has to offer, look no further the Salsa 4 Taqueria! It’s a hole in wall that you would drive by if you weren’t looking for it. I had beef empanadas, a trio of tacos, el pastor, pork belly, and deep fried shrimp. I’ve never been to Mexico but I imagine this is what I would get on the streets there. Be prepared to wait for your food. Empanadas are made to order and the corn taco shells are pressed and cooked to order with a choice of soft or crunchy! The el pastor was very flavorful, pork belly with a nice char on the outside melts in your mouth, the batter fried shrimp were large and delicious, shredded beef in the empanadas was braised to perfection! Sorry for the lack of pictures, I dug in before it crossed my mind. Yes, it’s that good!”

“Really really good bowl. Ordered for pick up because I thought it might be crazy busy. It was my 1st time. Pickup was crazy but walk in was fine. Waited 25 minutes after my pick up time for my food. Still good though.”

“🍕👍👌🤌................... !”

“I just purchased cannoli for my son ! I had to call and thank to nice young lady who filled with delicious creamy ricotta cheese very generously and beautifully . Thank you so much”

“Ordered a very last minute sheet cake for a class reunion last weekend and The Kakery provided a beautiful and delicious cake. Everyone loved it!! Thank you so very much for taking my order with such short notice. Kudos to you!!!”

“We ordered our Thanksgiving Day meal from Italian Gourmet Deli and it was FANTASTIC! We have previously ordered catering from them and have never been disappointed. Their food is always delicious, plentiful and nicely packaged for easily heating it up with the instructions included. The staff is friendly and efficient. Looking forward to seeing their New Year’s Eve menu!”

“It was my first visit to Xian Noodle Factory tonight (12/6/19). I was so impressed with the excellent food and very friendly service. Thank you very much and looking forward to seeing you again soon.”

“The place is amazing!! Never had omelettes like that anywhere. Everything is excellent. And the service was great. You will NOT be disappointed. Great little spot.”

“OMG🤤 I ordered from DoorDash spectacular experience but whoever made my grinder I want to bow at their feet because DELICIOUSNESS to the 1000th power🫡 it was EVERYTHING a grinder should be I felt like a pig grunting with every bite 😩 I really need to know who made it because I want to tip them big. The Newington location Fenn rd. has me in a grinderhold 🥰 I don’t have any photos because I ate the whole thing nonstop 🥴”

“March 24, 2026. Customer service was horrible; the two ladies working up front were disrespectful, all because I asked if the order I placed went through, given how long the food was taking. To proceed with disrespect, getting my food, I was given attitude a second time after disrupting her phone time”

“I've been going to TJ's for a little over a year now and have always had the best service. Their food is always made fresh to order and never disappoints. (The garlic parmesan wings, pizza and shroom burger are my favorites so far). This place has great vibes and I'll continue to visit until I no longer can't.”

“Aquí Me Quedo is hands down the best Puerto Rican food in the area. From the moment you walk in, the service is amazing and you’re treated like family. The staff is friendly, attentive, and make sure you have everything you need.

The food is absolutely delicious and full of authentic Puerto Rican flavor. Every dish tastes fresh and homemade, and the portions are generous. You can really tell they put love and pride into their cooking.

Highly recommend! 🇵🇷🍽️”

“Bartender was on point and super friendly. I was in late so I wasn't able to get the food but I have been here before and people love them and they looked good.”

“Just started coming here not too long ago and have not been disappointed! The bagels are delicious and always fresh. We call ahead and have our order ready within 10 minutes. The donuts are delicious, my favorite right now being the Oreo one. The staff is very friendly, we were attended to by a lady who was very friendly and courteous. With 2 coffees, 2 bacon egg and cheese sandwich bagels, and 3 donuts… the total cost was about $32. She even threw in an extra donut 🩷. All staff members have been very friendly and kind. Definitely recommend this place.”

The food was top-notch, delicious, with great portions, and the price was very fair. I would recommend a morning excursion to the Sloppy Waffle #treatyourself #goingbackformore”
