Been coming here for years, and the sausage gravy on their chicken and waffles is still the best. Always hits the spot.

Cozy spot, not too fancy. Perfect for date night. Had the truffle pasta, rich but not heavy. Service was chill. A bit pricey though.

The Tom Yum had a good balance of sour and savory. I went for the 2-star spice, which was fine, but I think I&#39;d go for the 3-star next time for a bit more heat.

The breakfast sandwich was spot on, and the coffee&#39;s solid. Nice to see so many veggie choices on the menu.

The portions here are massive, honestly. We ordered the fish and chips and could barely finish it between two of us. Perfect for after a day at the beach when you&#39;re starving.

Been coming here for years. The breakfast bagel sandwich is my go-to. Sausage is tasty, bagel&#39;s got that crisp-soft thing down. Coffee&#39;s always solid. Just a good, simple spot.

The fajitas were spot on, and the server was really on top of things. The chips came out hot and crispy, which was a nice touch. The vibe was fun, a bit loud with some birthday parties, but it worked. Their house margarita was a solid pairing for the whole meal.

The shaved Brussels sprout salad here is really something. The sprouts were super fresh, shaved thin, and had this great texture. The dressing was light but packed with flavor. A solid choice.

The French fry pizza was a fun idea, and the portion was huge for the price.

Been coming here for years, and the service is always on point. Even when they&#39;re slammed, the staff remembers my name and keeps the coffee coming. It&#39;s that consistency that keeps me coming back.

The new chef&#39;s Food Network background shows. The meatballs and garlic bread were a great start. I really appreciated how fresh the ingredients tasted, especially in the tomato sauce. You could tell it was made that day.

The steak sandwich here is simple but so satisfying. I like how the space feels open and airy, with those big windows letting in all the light. It&#39;s a nice spot to just sit and enjoy a meal without feeling rushed.

The pizza here is pretty good. The crust is nice and crisp, and I liked the fresh crumbled sausage. It was a bit on the pricey side, but it&#39;s a solid choice for a casual meal.

Service got a little slow when they were packed, but honestly, the food is so good I don&#39;t even mind waiting. The flavors are just spot-on.

The chocolate mousse is so authentic. Loved sitting under that quirky painting at the bar.

Been coming here for years. The portions are always generous, never feel like you&#39;re getting shortchanged.

The private event space upstairs was perfect for our group. Marissa helped with everything, made it so easy.

The Chicken Diabla Chimichanga was fantastic. The chicken was juicy, the sauce had a nice smoky heat. Best margarita I&#39;ve had in Connecticut, hands down. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet.

The burger was hand-packed with a nice smoky flavor. Fries and nachos were hot and crispy, which was perfect. Service was quick, so we weren&#39;t waiting around.

This is a solid spot in the area. The menu is a fun mix&mdash;you can get a classic NY strip, a plate of pasta, and really fresh sushi all in one place. The vibe is definitely upscale but still relaxed.

Easter dinner here. The lamb was cooked just right, tender and flavorful. Service was on point too. Really liked the cozy vibe of the place.

The fettuccine bolognese was pretty good, especially with the ricotta. Their tiramisu was a fine way to finish. Decent dessert options overall.

Came in on Mother&#39;s Day, so it was packed. Honestly, I was expecting a wait. But the staff kept things moving smoothly, and our food still came out hot and tasted right. That&#39;s solid execution on a tough night.
