Craft Kitchen Southington-Plantsville

Big, open, rustic and welcoming restaurant. We came in on a Sunday evening and had a delightful waitress. Three adults brought two children seated at a spacious booth. Menu has plenty of variety to include a few vegetarian options. Specials menu has multiple options as well. The restaurant is welcoming and quiet which is nice, feels cozy and you can talk and listen easily. The restaurant is quite dark though, so if they turned up the light brightness a bit it would be perfect. Menu items were delivered and mostly as described on the menu. A few notes: the feta butternut salad was delicious but the “spice” was missing. The chunks of butternut could have been warmed a bit, served cold it just didn’t feel like a good mix. The basic burger was a great portion, but the bun was a bit dry so i

Great food here!!! First timer and our server at the bar was great! Along with my choice of smoked meats (brisket and pork belly burnt ends), she came over with two bbq sauces to try out with. The tasso sauce was the right kick needed for the meat! The appetizer of the meatballs with burrata was delicious!! Good size meatball as well. Lots of local beers on tap (always a plus) No complaints here!! Leaving with full bellies and a bit of leftovers for lunch at work tomorrow! Will be back again

. Craft Kitchen Review We had a great experience at Craft Kitchen! Dined outside on a beautiful summer day with the family, and everything felt fresh and vibrant from start to finish. We kicked things off with the lavender lemonades—10 out of 10. Refreshing, flavorful, and the perfect summer drink. The pulled pork nachos were a standout: super fresh chips, tender pork, and crisp, flavorful veggies. The Buffalo mac and cheese came in a massive portion—cheesy, rich, and definitely comfort food done right. I also tried the watermelon arugula salad with feta, which was light, fresh, and perfectly balanced. It could easily be a full meal with a protein add-on, but I was there to sample around. The street corn was amazing—full of flavor and grilled just right. The chicken was okay but a bit h

I’ve dined at Craft Kitchen twice now, and I have to say I’m really impressed with their menu and the quality of their food. We timed our second visit perfectly with the launch of their new fall menu items, and also discovered they had recently brought in a bunch of new barbecue items from their Bird Dog BBQ concept. Everything is farm-to-table fresh! The servers have been friendly and attentive both times, and the restaurant has a nice laid back vibe. I hope to come back soon to try even more menu items!

We recently dined at Craft Kitchen. This is a place we go to with family when we want to treat ourselves to a step above normal daily eating. On this occasion we left very disappointed. Scallops and risotto for $38 were terrible. First, the scallops were overcooked and very small. The risotto was not risotto. What was served amounted to rice with a ton of onions and sun dried tomatoes in a red sauce -- not in any way creamy or what you would expect in a risotto. We asked the waiter about it and he first said that it was listed as rice on the menu. We asked to see the menu again and pointed out that it expressly said "risotto." The open faced lasagna was not anything special --- nothing remarkable about it. The Prosecco was served lukewarm. We have enjoyed Craft Kitchen on many occasions
