I had a meatball sub, and my goodness, it was the best I've had in years; a perfect balance of sauce so that the meatballs didn't get overwhelmed. My husband had a chili dog and was gobsmacked at how they managed to elevate a seemingly straightforward dish. They used toasted bread, and the chili was the perfect amount. My son got one of their burgers and absolutely devoured it. Finally, their fries and onion rings are some of the best I've had in a while. I'm bummed that we are only in CT to visit family once a year, because this would definitely be added to our regular treat rotation.

And they make their own Bleu Cheese dressing that has HUGE chunks of Bleu Cheese in it! Yum! The service is fantastic, too! Shout out to Jocelyn, Liz, Kristen, Grace, and the others whose names I don't know (yet, lol)! Alex (I'm unsure of his title) is superb as well! And I cannot forget the people who work back of house... the unsung heroes/backbone of the hospitality industry... Busmen, Superb Cleaners of Dishes and Silverware and Floors and Such, and anyone else who has a hand in making Mulligan's such a happy, satisfying, safe, welcoming place. The owner seems to be a presence there also, which is very nice, and I saw him taking photos of the crowd enjoying themselves. They also have a dining room and another, more intimate bar area. Don't miss out on trying this place... Stop in! You will not regret it!

The restaurant is very cozy and comfortable. They had a singer with live music in the lounge area. I highly recommend people start supporting these local businesses so we don't lose them. We had the baked burrata special, fish and chips, and a burger. Everything was cooked perfectly and we had no complaints.

One word, INCONSISTENT! I called to place an order, the Marry Me Pasta with shrimp. ($30) I asked…read moreif garlic bread comes with the meal and the girl stated"yes" I even confirmed that there would be no up charge and she stated "yes". I used to go weekly to this place and I know they had some hiccups at the beginning, hence my questions while ordering. I get there and they're trying to charge me for a full sized garlic bread. I reiterated what was stated to me over the phone and the manager or owner that was there refused to honor what their staff had stated over the phone. They said they had no problem keeping the bread.... Save yourselves the time and energy and DO NOT come here! Prices are never consistent and now their customer service is less than satisfactory.

I have to say when this place first opened up it was fabulous. The food was great. The burgers were…read morethe best burgers that you could get the beef they used was perfect. The onion rings were the onion rings that you would expect when you go to a restaurant large golden crispy. I have gone there a few times within the last year and half. I have to say I do believe the quality of the food has gone downhill. The hamburger in meat it's a poor combination with more fat than beef. The onion rings are the greatest disappointment they are the exact same onion rings that you get if you go to Burger King, I wish that I could say that it was better and that I would continue to go back, but I just don't think it's cutting it any longer.

(as the kids say) It was crowded despite being early evening. The only available seats were at the bar area near the windows, which was fine because we were determined to experience the "new" place. We ordered the tuna tartare and lobstah rolls. The accompanying chips are homemade (slightly salty, but my taste buds are really close together). The host was attentive and gave us the royal treatment. We put this gem back on rotation and we are definitely returning!!!

I once attended a special Pasta Dinner at Fork and Fire in Farmington, but until recently I had…read morenever visited to order off their normal menu. Fork and Fire has an upscale Gastropub sort of vibe and offers an eclectic menu. My family and I visited on a Sunday around lunch time. Fork and Fire only offered their Brunch Menu at the time, which I didn't know. I was in more of a lunch mood, but they let me order the Black and Burger off the later menu, which was very nice. Not all cheeseburgers feature melty slices. The Black and Blue Burger featured Crumbled Blue Cheese, Pickled Red Onions, Smoked Bacon and Chipotle Aioli, on Toasted Brioche. The burger was huge and well cooked. So juicy it dripped. A flavor bomb. I also ordered the famous Kitchen Sink wings for the table, along with a side of Blue Cheese AND Ranch. The wings were super juicy. Top Tier Juicy. But the outer texture was still appropriately crisp. The sauce was sweet and savory, with a little bit of heat. Great wings. And the side sauces were terrific too. Service was very good. The atmosphere was terrific. Everyone enjoyed their orders. 4.5 Stars

How could you not like this place?! Great atmosphere, friendly staff and an awesome menu. We tried the reuben dog, taco dog and guilty pleasure dog with the Cajun fries. Dogs are messy but fun.... loved the taco dog! Cajun fries were too salty but appreciate that they are made in house! (Wish they had sweet potato fries with a fun dipping sauce though!) Can't wait to go back and try more creations!

Riley's is much nicer inside than you'd ever expect from a hot dog place. There's a lot of space,…read moreeverything is clean, and the whole setup has a trendy industrial feel that works really well. Even the bathrooms were noticeably nice, particularly for such a fast-paced lunch spot. I had the Chicago Dog and the House Dog. We've been on the hunt for a good Chicago dog that's, you know... closer than Chicago, so I was glad to see one on the menu. It was quite good, but not what I expected based on the ones I remember from Chicago. This version leaned heavier on the relish and toppings, didn't have the bright green relish, and ended up a little messier overall. It did match exactly what the menu described, though, so that part's on me for not reading it more closely. All that micro-complaining aside, I'd get it again--though I may first try to work through the extensive menu a bit. There are some great options, and you should expect to struggle deciding (maybe check the menu in advance). The House Dog was delicious, but also pretty messy--definitely grab some napkins. Prices were a tiny bit higher than I'd expect for hot dogs, but the quality, presentation, and overall vibe seemed aligned with that. Overall, Riley's is a great option if you want a nicer sit-down hot dog experience with lots of choices and a comfortable atmosphere. I'd go back, especially to try more of the specialty dogs.

I came back to this restaurant because the same seafood risotto I had previously was creamy and…read moreexcellent. This time, however, the dish was noticeably sour -- not tangy, but unpleasantly acidic to the point I couldn't finish it. A cream-based dish should not taste like this. Something was clearly off in the preparation. What was more disappointing was the response. The staff acknowledged the issue but only offered 50% off instead of remaking or removing the dish. When a customer cannot eat a dish due to a quality problem, I would expect it to be corrected, not partially charged. I don't usually leave negative reviews, but I returned specifically for this dish based on a good prior experience, so this was very disappointing.
