“Olea, is a top tier restaurant, creative and exciting yet grounded in the Spanish way. The drinks were very good I had the signature Manhattan. For appetizer the ceviche mixto was amazing, originally thrown off my the red sauce but WOW it was such a compliment to the lemon and seafood. My main meal was the fish of the day (Black Sea bass) and it was cooked to perfection and placed on butter beans and a mild yet appealing salsa verde. Food was on par for a great restaurant in any major city. We are so happy to have one of this caliber so close to home.“
“The food came quick and it was delicious. Probably the best pancakes I’ve ever had. The music was nice and my kids cracked up at the ads on the TV. Overall it was one of the best diner experiences I’ve had.Vegetarian options: There are many veggie omelets.Kid-friendliness: The service is quick so your kids don’t wait long. There is a good kids menu with kids size pancake, and drinks like pink lemonade and hot chocolate.“
“This is the best pizza in New Haven, forget what you read from influencers and blogs. Pat is a master of the craft and there is nothing better than a cheese pizza fresh out of the oven. Do yourself a favor and eat there! This pizza is best when it's only a few minutes out of the oven.“
“Always so friendly and helpful and the cupcakes are delicious! My daughter (she's 3) only wanted the veagan cupcake because it was the only one with sprinkles so they made her a cupcake specifically with sprinkles which was very kind, especially because it was Valentine's Day and they were very busy. But they still took the time to make my little girl happy! That speaks volumes. I travel about 40 mins every special occasion as they are my husband's favourite cupcakes (and we love them too!) Worth the trip every time!“
“I live in NJ and sent cookies and cupcakes to one of my favorite little girls for her birthday via Grubhub. The staff couldn’t have been sweeter. I called and they included a birthday note and also decorated the box with beautiful ribbons. Highly recommend Kathy’s famous Cookies, their customer service was above and beyond. I work in the retail business, and this level of care is not often seen. Thank you for allowing me to share a birthday with a sweet little one from 2 states away.“
“Great pizza and sides. Should be in the New Haven Pizza conversation more often.Brick oven, Fresh ingredients, nice crunch and undercarriage/ crust. About 5 two person tables So not much for sitting in. More of a take out spot. Well worth it to go pick it up. Out of the down town city area. In Quiet East “
“Been dying to try this place and finally did, very impressed! Great atmosphere, food, and drinks. Hard working staff! Melissa was a great, outgoing, hard working bartender who was constantly hustling. Will definitely be back and highly recommend it!“
“I used to come here when I lived in New Haven! What a joy. Haven’t lived in CT in several years but this market just popped into my mind. Brought a smile to my face just remembering the really really early stages of my health journey. Thank you for being a place of not only fresh food but mind expansion. I would spend hours in there just reading about the vitamins, supplements, health foods, etc.! Really a wonderful time!“

“This is a nice little Thai restaurant tucked away in a small strip mall. The service was excellent. A number of the staff welcomed us as we entered the restaurant. They also all said goodbye and thanks for coming on our way out. I had a red curry dish that was delicious but my wife’s wide noodle chicken dish was not very tasty. I would certainly go there again and try something different.“
“Scratch Baking really came through for me on a last minute Pi Day pie order for our engineering office! I probably should have called sooner than the day before but even still they were able to whip up 3 delicious pies for me to pick up the next day! The pies were delicious! I plan to call a little earlier next year since they were a hit!“
“First time firsts. So delicious. So unbelievably filling. Next time, I'll get a mini. Huge variety...made with a view, too¡! Highly suggest if you haven't...you do. You're welcome, because if you could you would thank me...?“
“Came here for some drinks which were excellent! Happened to be happy hour so that was also a bonus. Ambiance of the whole place is super chill and cozy and not too loud for how busy it was which was great, didn't have to tell for the person sitting next to me to hear me. Didn't order any food but I watched a bunch of food come out and it looked amazing so I will definitely be back!“
“Their organic butternut squash is incredible. Amazing menu, excellent with any food allergy you can think of (dairy, nuts, fish, grain, soy, eggs...), where the food is actually delicious no matter what your restriction is. Normally buckwheat pancakes taste a little gritty, but not these! These (vegan! GF!) ones are fluffy and beautiful and taste right like your childhood. Even the free refill coffee is excellent. We tend to spend quite a bit when we come because their cocktail menu is too good.This place is making me consider moving to West Haven just so I can eat there all the time.Vegetarian options: Incredible vegan breakfast and vegan lunch menus!Dietary restrictions: Incredible selection of gluten free baked goods (the sandwich bread is delicious!)“
