Ah, so THAT's what the eggplant fries look like--more like actual fries than like chicken tenders, as they do at Mondo. Glad you shared (or not really, you ate the whole box, right)? KIDDING. +1 on Plan B over JG's for burgers, too. »
West Hartford has probably got the most/best burger spots, and a few more in Glastonbury ain't gonna change that. »
I'd definitely call Bricco top end, for the area anyway. Prices are right around Cavey's. Another thought came to me, Amici's in Avon. The more I think about it, the more I think it's exactly what you're looking for. It's right near 167 on 44, and has ... »
The 25 minute boundary was 3rd on the list meaning if there was a place slightly outside, I'd still throw it into the mix. I just didn't want to get a list of places in Manchester or New London that I wouldn't be able to use. Basically, Danburyish to t... »
Ok I guess I'm dating myself - don't even know what the Oakdale is called now. Need a restaurant on a Saturday night somewhere between West Hartford/Farmington and Wallingford. Any decent suggestions? Not looking for cheap, (so no pizza or steamed chee... »
I go to the one in Avon, it's a convenient stop for me on the way home. I agree with Tinkerbelldee, steak and turkey tips are good. Meats are o.k. They are over the top friendly, but I have no complaints about that. I think their strong suit is the sel... »
or try this place, 987 New Britain Avenue West Hartford, CT 06110 (860) 953-1122 smal place but authentic foods + sandwichs »
I second Anthony Jacks in Southington or try Treva in West Hartford. »
Not that my age is of any consequence, but I am comfortably over 40. »
I will not get into a debate about OG, as this board is not for chain discussions, but they do not cook food there. It is the same as heating up a frozen dinner. So many great local places for italian food that is cooked to order. »
WAIT! Did you really say Olive Garden and good old fashioned food in the same post. There is nothing good or old fashioned about OG. Pre-cooked food is not good. Colony has been a bit of an institution on the Southern end of the state and I will welcom... »
Agree Tinker. The good restaurants survive the economic downturn. Good food, good service, reasonable prices.. they'll be around for a long time. It's much easier to blame the economy. Look at some of the places that have been around for ages and they ... »
Head over the mountain to Harry's Bishop's Corner. Great dough. »
Yes, I know the Farmington Valley is packed to the gills with pizza places (and more to come!); but does anyone know which ones sell their dough? Time to improve the homemade version! Thanks! »
