Best Casual Restaurants in New Britain

This was my first time dining here, and I can see why you need to make reservations days in advance. What impressed me the most was the service. Our server was extremely attentive and knowledgeable. Also, the culture of the service harkens back to fine dining experiences of the past. It just feels like a special treat or indulgence that justifies the prices. Right down to the glassware, and change of utensils with each course. The decor of the restaurant adds to that feeling. Our steaks were cooked to perfection. I also loved that you can make healthy choices with the main entrees, sides, and dessert, especially! How nice it was to have something simple like fresh berries with creme fraiche to choose over heavier desserts. And I appreciate that the berries were the star of the plate, and the creme fraiche was just an accent. Although, the decaf cappuccino I ordered could have been a dessert in and of itself...it was that good. Our cocktails were also perfectly crafted and offered some unique options.

One of my favorite restaurants to eat at that is accommodating to gluten allergies. I can order almost anything on the menu.

Me and my family came here after a show at the XL CENTER. I am so glad we found this spot. The food and service was fantastic! We wanted something kid friendly but also great food and vibes and it checked all of the boxes! Will definitely go back when we are back in town!

The sushi was excellent. The fish was extremely fresh. The sushi/ sashimi appetizers were creative and flavorful. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The place is very clean, the service was great, and the pizza was delicious. Only criticism was the music was kind of loud and it was quite pricey. Compared to actual New Haven pizza the taste was there , but it’s way more expensive.
