I attended my sisters wedding in Groton and was apprehensive about the food that would be served at…read morethe branford house. Mainly because our side of the family has a lot of food allergies especially my wife and kids. My sister reassured me that the vendor they booked takes these things seriously and curates a menu that offers many options especially with people with diet restrictions. The food was amazing. No complaints. My wife was more than happy and she even went up for seconds. They even offered special kids meals for my son and daughter. My kids ate all their food to the point where they ended up falling asleep right in time for the dancing to start. Allowing my wife and I a moment to step on to the dance floor for a nice couples dance. The staff was also incredibly friendly and attentive. They even had this guy walking around in a hot dog costume handing out hotdogs at the end of the night. It was awesome and hilarious. All in all, a huge thank you to Brasato for making the night just that much more special and smooth. 10 out of 10 service!

We booked this caterer a full year in advance for both our catering and wedding planning. Just…read morethree days before our wedding, they canceled both services. We were told they had three weddings booked that weekend, and it seemed they had taken on more than they could handle. They also used our final payment as a reason for canceling, even though they had previously agreed to let us make the payment two days after the contract date. They canceled at 9:01 that morning before we even had the opportunity to contact our bank to increase our transaction limit and make the payment. Being left without both a caterer and wedding planner just three days before our wedding was incredibly stressful and disappointing. Thankfully, we found another caterer who stepped up for us at the last minute. To make matters worse, after canceling on us three days before our wedding, they refused to return our deposit. When I contacted the owner directly, I was shocked by his attitude. Rather than showing any remorse or concern for leaving us without a caterer just three days before our wedding, he came across as smug and dismissive. He even said, "I hope I didn't ruin your day." The way he said it made me feel as though he was actually hoping our wedding had been ruined. It was an incredibly insensitive response from someone we had trusted with one of the most important days of our lives. When you book a company a year in advance for one of the most important days of your life, you expect professionalism, reliability, and someone you can trust. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. I would never want another couple to experience the stress, disappointment, and uncertainty we went through just days before their wedding. No couple deserves to be put in that position, especially after trusting a company with such an important event. Based on our experience, I would highly recommend staying away from this company. There are plenty of other caterers who will value your business, honor their commitments, and treat your wedding day with the importance it deserves.

First time going to Trattoria Toscana an Italian restaurant tucked away in Manchester …read more I must say I had a fabulous time , our waitress was amazing she got us everything we needed and checked on us constantly and was very sweet ! The ambiance was nice and cozy , good music playing in the background , not to loud and easy to have a conversation . To start off we got the Italian meatballs which were amazing highly recommend. We also ordered the mozzarella sticks which I loved the cheese pull was perfection and nice crunch on the outside , highly recommend as well . For my entre I got the NY strip . Served with mashed potatoes and green beans and topped with mushrooms and gorgonzola ! The sides were good but I really enjoyed my steak ! It was cooked medium rare , and the gorgonzola cheese on top was perfection ! I highly enjoyed it ! For dessert I got the tiramisu which was fantastic ( small portion) but very good ! Highly recommend ! Overall 5/5 ! Good atmosphere , good service and great food ! Perfect for family gatherings , eating with friends or even a date night ! Can't wait to be back !

We happened upon this restaurant on our way from Maine to Connecticut. We started with nicely-done…read morebrussel sprouts that led to splitting a beet salad. Big portions even split to share and we enjoyed it very much. My wife had the cacio e pepe pasta and enjoyed that with a side meatball (raved about it). I followed Tamra D's suggestion and went with the Grandma Leena's special sauce with pasta. Wow. Excellent sauce and big portions such that I took half for the road. Tamra D was excellent. Compared to a lot of places we have done over much of the U S this was a nice surprise. Good food. Very reasonable pricing. So took two nutella cheecakes for the road as well. Overall, we will be back if we get close to this area.

Still one of my favorite options for gifts and home decor!…read more (And candy...shhh) I came in with a friend today to pick up some summer entertaining stuff soooo I'm now the proud owner of a plastic cactus-shaped thermos with loopy straw, some 50% off pillows, yet another lamp, a jar of pesto, and a bunch of other miscellany that has nothing to do with what I came in for. Have I mentioned how great the staff are here? I had no less than 3 friendly employees offer me help or give me a heads up on a 20% off coupon I'd been overlooking. Pro tip: join their rewards program!

World Market is such a beautiful store. It has so much nostalgia for me, because here I can find…read moresome delicious German treats that I'd have as a kid that I'd never know still exist if it weren't for World Market. There are isles of international cookies, chocolate and other goods. There's also beautiful furniture, pillows and kitchen items. I personally wouldn't invest in a couch from World Market because it's typically very expensive, and you can find similar items at other retailers. But they have unique accent chairs and small attractive furniture items. My favorite thing to get here, in addition to the chocolate, are the Christmas ornaments. They are so, so beautiful, and so unique. There is so much detail in each one. Now that it's after Christmas, they are all 50% off, making each one around $2.50 - $4.00. If you have a World Market in your area, I'd encourage you go and check them out. While some items are more expensive, the unique items, hard to find items and the nostalgic items are what it's worth stopping for.
