★★★★☆ 4.0 Suparna Banerjee · Feb 2026

We visited to celebrate a special occasion and really loved the cozy, welcoming environment. We sat at the bar and quickly noticed how many regulars they have—it definitely feels like a neighborhood favorite. Ken, the bartender, made a special impact with his friendly service; chatting with him was a highlight of our visit. The food was okay overall, but the atmosphere truly stood out. We enjoyed the beers on tap, and the service was good throughout. Mediterranean board-5/5(loved it) Pesto pasta-4/5( bcz it was runny and the basil over powered the pesto sauce) Veg stir fry with shrimp -1/5( not at all good and it was runny instead of being fried) Mashed potato with garlic -4.5/5( liked it) They also host live music and bingo nights, which adds to the fun vibe. A great place to hang ou

We stopped in tonight on a total whim — and wow, are we glad we did! Everything about this place deserves 5 stars: location, price, food, atmosphere, and staff were all incredible. I ordered the Marry Me Chicken that’s been all over social media, and it did not disappoint. It matched — if not exceeded — all the hype. Perfectly cooked, rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. My husband went for the Chicken & Waffles, and let’s just say he destroyed it. Between the maple syrup, hot honey, and maple aioli, it was impossible to pick a favorite. He loved it so much he couldn’t stop raving to the manager, Tyler — whose smile quite literally takes over a room — about his idea for a Chicken & Waffles Benedict. Our waitress, Melissa, was just as wonderful — patient, friendly, and so attentive.

Great food,focus on vegetarian choices. I had the Mediterranean Board, plenty for sharing! Foccicia bread was crisp, feta cheese as fresh as fresh can get. Lunch, I had the Grilled Peach salad 🥗 so flavorful and fresh. For starters I ordered a French Martini-new favorite martini-well made and not overpowering. Service is top notch, actually the best I've had in years-she never rushed me and it was easily the best lunch, so I will be back for dinner 🍽. True hidden gem in Ellington.

I visited this place when they just started with an old foreign friend, so, honestly I dont recall what we order and eat, lol. Due my friends and I like good quality food, I recommend to do our bro time here. When we arrived were received just by smiles, and an amazing service. We waited for one of my buddies and I ordered a gin cocktail that was espectacular meanwhile next guy was coming. Menu is just amazing got on my eyes 3 different things, 1 burger, pasta, and steak and when for the burger due was with jalapeño related, im Mexican so love spice in my life. The food is out of the world, quality, flavor and presentation are in any dish that they serve, after some time, seems that manager/owner approached to ask us how was everything going. I do recommend this place 100%, I'll defin
