“Nicer hotel restaurant that I thought. Good selection of food still has your premium on the price but if you're in a jam, it's not a bad place to go. Stays open late so it's easy to grab a bite. I had the wings and was pleasantly surprised.“
“My first adult job was in Windsor Locks. I wasn't from the area, and being the new guy, I didn't have much of a say in group lunch spots. Bart's was in rotation for dogs, burgers, fries, etc. Until this week, I hadn't been to Bart's for over 20 years. Since I was in the area, I decided to drop in. I quickly noticed that the menus referred to "New Bart's". Since I hadn't been in over 20 years, the changeover could have been at any point. I asked. The ownership change was "about a month ago". I missed the old team by a month. How crazy is that? Given the ownership change, I'm not sure how accurate the 3 Star Rating is for New Bart's, but it is what it is. I ordered a classic -- Bart's Famous Dog with chili, relish, peppers, ketchup, mustard and Mayo. It's an eye catching dog. The grilled reddish dog extends from both sides of the bun. There are strips of white and yellow. Dashes of red and green. Brown chili. I'm sure it sounds like a mess, but the sweet, sour and salty flavors were well balanced. The dog, the brand of which I did not recognize, was cooked through and medium dense. The bun was pretty good. I tried to isolate the chili sauce to see if it was good. It didn't really pop for me, but it worked fine with the other ingredients. Bart's also has sandwiches, some seafood, chicken nuggets and fried rice. They have inside seating in an old school, no frills dining room. You can also get takeout or order delivery. This was a nice trip down memory lane. 4 Stars“

“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!“
“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“
“I've been to other Capital Grille locations; decided to try this one. Visited on a Saturday evening. Ordered wedge salad and clam chowder as an appetizer. Both were good and consistent with food I've ordered at other locations. Dinner was tenderloin with lobster and seared tuna. Both were cooked well. Potatoes au gratin were quite good. Service I felt was average; dessert took quite a long time to come out unfortunately. Atmosphere is consistent among locations generally and this one was enjoyable and no different. Overall, this location was good and I would return.“
“If you love fresh seafood dishes prepared well and a great bloody mary, this is the place. I like a lot of horseradish in my bloody marys and that is what you will find here. They know how to treat gueats, they willingly split our salad and our entree.“
“First time here at this location 2nd time eating at Hook & Reel. I will definitely come back here. The manager was amazing and very attentive to everyone. my waitress was great. We chose the all you can eat. There were lots to choose from. The food was fresh and tasty. I would recommend this location. The atmosphere was nice and chill. The place was clean . 5 stars from us.“
“I had been wanting to try Coracora for years and finally had the chance. The empanadas were the best I've ever had - delicious fillings, but a dough like the most amazing light pie crust. Creative, authentic menu, beautiful decor, reasonable prices, excellent service -- all came together for an exceptional night out.“

“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“
“We were definitely under dressed but stopped here on a whim and it was a good experience. We will definitely be back. My son had a dairy and soy allergy and I don’t eat dairy and they were beyond amazing with allergies. They can really accommodate anyone with an allergy! We will for sure be back. It was also very big portions and reasonably priced. Kids meal is only $8!Dietary restrictions: They are great with any allergy precautions!“
“Four friends enjoyed a great dining experience at Portobello West Hartford. The manager and staff were very welcoming, and we found the restaurant comfortable and quiet enough for conversation. Drinks, salads and entrees were all good. Generous portions. Recommend the Veal Portobello, clams, lasagna -- delicious and attractively presented.“
“We came to celebrate our son becoming a state trooper. What a wonderful dinner we had. First and foremost our dinner service and server was wonderful. (Wish I remembered his name) first time and we will be back. Love everything about the place. ❤️❤️❤️thank you so.“
“We were travelling back home (a couple of hours) and drove about an hour out of our way to pass by and pick up the Birkin Bag, we drove another 2 hours home and enjoyed the meal very much. I would suggest anyone passing by, even if it's out of your way to make the stop, very nice place and great food! Wish you guys were closer to Jersey, maybe on our next trip eastwards.“
“Nice atmosphere not like others which can be quite loud. The owner is the host and waiter and was so helpful. For the 2 of us, we had the hot pot combo plus 1 added hot pot and it was enough. They tend to be light on the protein servings but you can add more. It was less than $70 for dinner for 2 plus 1 additional side, 1 alcoholic beverage each and an appetizer. Very affordable. Will definitely return.Dietary restrictions: Highly customizable for all restrictions.“
“I have been here a few times. The food is always fresh. The service is excellent! I will recommend it...just try it! My favorite is the Rhode Island clam chowder, the mango & BBQ salmon & lobster rolls.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access“
“The waitress was great. Attentive but not too much so, friendly, and competent. Three of us went for breakfast and had different meals and all were delicious and the prices were very reasonable. We also liked that the booths were high back so you have some privacy. We will be back!“
“Hands down the best Mexican food I have had in CT. My husband and I ordered the elote( off the Cobb) and the steak burrito. Everything was was seasoned to perfection and tasted made to order. Bonus: the customer service was superb. Can’t wait to visit again!“
“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!“
“I have ordered both in and had food delivered. I love the food. I’m partial to the salmon, shrimp pasta and the j*** chicken pasta. That is also the three things I have tried from them. I first ordered the $5 plates to try them and have not stopped going since. It’s not your typical pasta. I love the combination of flavors and the subtle punch. I get tired of food easily but Ravi’s has definitely added some variety. I have recommended them to my family and friends. Love supporting a small business in our community. Pray prosperity over them.“
“This was our first time trying Alexia's. We ordered a plain, cheese pizza, and it was excellent. The sauce was tasty, full of flavor, without being too sweet or too acidic. The crust was wonderfully crisp, without being charred. I'm not an expert by any means, but I would describe the pizza as "Detroit style." The staff were very friendly. Gluten-free is available as well.“
“We ordered tostones (flattened fried green plaintains) as appetizers. Then we had shrimp fried rice (a generous portion) and fried chicken with white rice and side salad... they were amazing! We definitely recommend this spot, especially if you have time before attending an event at The Bushnell. It is just a quick walk down the street.“
“Brazilian/Portuguese food and sounds and tvs and music give it a cool ethnic vibe. Great place to hangout and enjoy yummy tasty food. Whether eating, playing pool, watching "the game", chatting, or chilling it offers something for everyone. Great Owner!!...feel free to strike up a conversation. THE BEST expresso in the state...just try it!...beats Dunkin or Starbucks Expresso 10 out of 10 times. Highly recommend.“
“The good is great!! Is my go to spot been coming here since I was a little girl. Hands down best Puerto Rican restaurant!! The taste, service, atmosphere EVERYTHING is great.Parking: Street parking all around. Is free no need to pay.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy for anyone to come in. No stairs“
“One of my favorite Indian restaurants. They have a wider variety than many area restaurants, and I've enjoyed everything I've ordered. The staff is really friendly and attentive, and it's a place I bring friends to. Love their samosas, samosa chaat, the saffrani pulao is one of my favorite dishes ever, anywhere.“
“La comida excelente todo con un sabor único. Lo único que me quejo es que pedi una bolsa para llevarme lo que no me comí y la mesera me dice que se le acabaron. Sin embargo le compré otra orden para llevar y si tenía bolsa. Cosas pequeñas que dañan la reputación de un buen negocio. El servicio al cliente es más importante que la calidad de la comida.“
“It was ok overpriced for the quality of food, asked for a cheeseburger hot a hamburger asked for fresh jalapeños and got pickled canned jalapeños, had French onion soup was to much oil from the cheese and the was bland. Be thinking twice before heading back there.Parking: It's a big parking lot, and there should never be an issue parking here.Wheelchair accessibility: They are wheelchair accessible“
“I have always loved this place can't say enough good things about it food is usually excellent and you have large portions bartenders and cooks and owners have owned this place since I have been going there for the past 25 years keep up the good work j&G's I just wish you stayed open a little later kept those ovens on for at least pizza and or grinders“
“For our main course, I tried the margherita pizza, and it was amazing - the crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. My friend had the chicken parmigiana, and it was equally fantastic - the chicken was tender and juicy, and the marinara sauce was rich and savory.“
“We made the reservation based on reviews from TripAdvisor and we were very happy. The food selections varied between seafood, salads, comfort food and steaks. I am alllergic to dairy and the chef made substutions that allowed me to enjoy the sea scallops over delicious spinach rather than risotto. My steak salad was fresh and the steak pieces were melt in my mouth. My husband had grilled salmon and he said it was one of the best meals he has had.“
