   The experience was wonderful. We were a party of 5, first time for all of us. Our waiter, Lorenzo was very good. He explained how the restaurant operates. The food was very good. We all enjoyed eating out while supporting Hands On Hartford. The vibe was quiet, the room is very attractive. The menu is small and changes monthly with the rotation of chefs. There is an option of a Prix Fixe, or Ala Carte. The servings are generous!! We went right at 5 when they opened since we had been at a matinee at a local theater. I can’t speak to the vibe or noise level after 6:30 or so! For our group we have found our new spot for dinner after we see an early show!! The monthly menu changes fit in with the theaters changing shows!!

   We had a great time at Gather55. The place was busy. The food was delicious. I had Chef Lapat’s vegan dishes. I am not Vegan and I loved them. My spouse had the pork chop again and as usual it was perfect. Our service was impeccable. Andrea is great. She’s knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about Gather55. She really added to the overall experience. If you haven’t been to Gather55, you should go. You won’t be disappointed. We will be back next month.

   It was a filling dinner. The reason to go is to support the charity and cause. At $70 I wouldn't do that every week, but I would go again. Very nice place and lovely staff.

   Delicious way to support the community. Excellent food, great service and profits support all the wonderful programs of Hands on Hartford.

   I took my family for a vegan dinner with guest chef Lapat and we were blown away. Not only did we feel truly blessed to be part of such an amazing organization helping people in need, but the quality of food and the experience in general was exceptional.

   This is a wonderful restaurant. The menu changes frequently but every dish I have had has been amazing. The value cannot be beat serving a 3 course dinner for $55. The restaurant also provides food for the underprivileged in Hartford. If you need a meal it will be provided with no cost. In a day where food quality is dropping and prices are increasing this is a hidden gem that serves fine dining food at moderate prices with amazing service. It has been the only spot I have gone out with my wife on a date for the past year. I can't recommend this restaurant more.

   This is a best-kept secret that we all should know about. The mission is as incredible, as the food! The Beef Bolognese is the best I have had. The Pork Chop was divine, flavorful, and tender. The Yucca salad was fantastic and not what I expected! The desserts capped off the meal! The PreFIXX is a great value. I have already been back and will be again soon!

   the food was delicious, and the mission of the restaurant is one to be emulated-it trains folks in the culinary arts and serves a very underserved community. a place to treasure

   Great choices on the menu to please everyone in our group of 4. We all got something different and all were happy! Served in a very pleasing manner and delicious. Everybody was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Not at all rushed and prix fixe was offered which 2 of us chose. Best meal ever!

    This is our third time here and it does not disappoint. Food is delicious, staff is wonderful and they got us in and out with plenty of time to get to the theater on time. So easy to have a conversation with our guests at the table without straining to hear. We love the concept of community awareness too. This has become our go-to restaurant with friends.
