Overall experience wasn't the best but definitely worth another chance.

I recently tried Ideal Tavern. There were some things I liked, but my experience was mixed…read more I arrived a bit before noon on a Saturday. The building is cool both inside and outside. It was also well decorated for the Fall Season. There were a few employees that were visible at times, but they weren't organized in such a way to provide a typical lunch experience. The person who was working the bar also served as hostess and my server in the main eating area. So I waited a minute or so at the host stand to be greeted while she finished a drink. There was also hammering in the kitchen area for a decent part of my lunch. My server was very nice though and hustled to try to meet everyone's needs. I believe Ideal Tavern recently won the Southington Wing Fest. So I wanted to try the wings. I asked my server what the most popular wing flavors are and she didn't have an answer. I ordered the Sweet Chili Gorgonzola because it looked like the most interesting option. I also ordered an Ideal BLT Burger. The wings and burger were brought together, which I didn't ask for. That obviously defeats the purpose of ordering an app. The wings were meaty and had great texture. They were more glazed than sauced. I thought the Gorgonzola component would be more of a sauce but there were actual pieces of Gorgonzola cheese. The Gorgonzola was good quality. The burger was big and cooked to my requested medium rare. I didn't note any seasoning. The burger came with cheddar, which isn't the best melting cheese. You could tell they tried to melt the cheese, but the cheese broke off rather than stretched when I pulled at the side. The bacon seemed like it was probably high quality, possibly uncured bacon. The texture of it wasn't great for a burger. It was hard in parts and too difficult to chew. I also wish the LT part of the BLT had a bit more focus. I didn't think the Truffle Aioli worked for a BLT either. The fries had kind of a unique wide swoop cut style. I think Ideal Tavern could pay a bit more attention to the details of what makes a good customer experience. They have some good things to work with though. 3.75

We had planned to go somewhere else but it was late on a Saturday night and that place was busy so…read morewe last minute pivoted to here. Upon arriving we'd realized we'd eaten at this restaurant before (when it was in a different location) and eaten in this building before (when it was a different business). Caesar salad appetizer was excellent. Kids Mac and cheese was maybe one of the best Mac and cheeses we'd ever had, kids or not. And it was great as a pizza topping. My wife and I split a wagyu burger and The Craft Pie. The burger we believe we got someone else's, it was missing the espresso aioli and prosciutto jam. It wasn't until we finished it that we realized it was way different than we expected. The pizza was excellent however. I could have done without the pears but so many other flavors that were excellent, though the real winner was the sour cherries. I'd come back again just for this pizza.

A friend of mine and I went to Craft Kitchen for lunch on this Thursday…read more There was plenty of parking to the right of the restaurant, and the side entrance was right there. As I walked through the front doors, I noticed kegs alongside on the floor. This was kind of a turn off, kind of reminds me of a dive bar. So my mentality kicked in that we were going into a dive bar serving food. I kinda get the sketchy feeling. Once we were seated, and menus placed, we were served iced water A few minutes later, the server came back and took our order. My friend ordered a cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, and some string french fries. I ordered the 1/2 smoked chicken, which came with two sides. I chose the rattlesnake beans and the creamy macaroni and cheese. Also include included was cornbread I originally wanted the street corn, as a side, but it was not available. Our lunches came quick, and my friend only ate half the french fries and cheeseburger, as she wasn't really turned on by them. The smoked chicken was fairly dry, with a very interesting smoked flavor to it that I can't put my finger on. I eat about 1/3 of it. Left the rest on the plate. The creamy macaroni and cheese was out of bounds top-notch. I could've eaten this all day. The rattlesnake rice and beans were just OK. The rice was cooked pretty good, and was seasoned well. The beans had a weird taste. Now thinking of this side dish, I was hoping for raw onions to be on top, but they were nowhere to be found. It'll be nice if there was chopped raw onions to go with this. The cornbread was delicious. I ate about half of it. It was a generous slice. While the server was fairly attentive, as she only checked in to fill the water glasses and ask how lunch was. She didn't ask us if we wanted a desert or coffee. Being old folks this would've been a great up for us, but it didn't happen. I had to ask for the check. I'm not sure if I would come back. I think this might be a one and done. The vibe just didn't hit it for me. Restrooms were clean. The restaurant was clean; the silverware clean. I don't know. It just was like a funky type layout and those beer kegs kinda sent the wrong tone to me as a guest. Lunch for the two of us was $40 and change and I left a $10 tip. We didn't have any cocktails or mock tails, we didn't have coffee or dessert either. From what I understand, the owner was near the exit when we left, not even a smile or a thank you for coming in...

The host was attentive and gave us the royal treatment. We put this gem back on rotation and we are definitely returning!!!

The man behind the bar and a very polite server told us there was another entrance but brought us through and seated us at a table. Our son insisted on starting with the wings. I tried one and was impressed. It was cooked crispy and the chicken was juicy. We ended up finding a few pieces with issues and they were quickly replaced with a new batch. We tried the pulled pork & brisket. My son and I preferred the brisket while my husband liked the pulled pork. Many great sauces were shared.

The pork belly burnt ends with collard greens and cornbread has become my favorite. The flavors of each item is stellar but together in one bite? Explosive in the best ways. Strong family vibes and friendly staff give you a real sense of south/western hospitality. I've personally been there a half dozen times and the consistency of their amazing choices never disappoints. The prices are VERY reasonable as many great options (like my favorite) can be scored for under $20 a plate. We also didn't wait long for a seat and our food came out quick and obviously fresh and made to order. Load up the family and bring a big appetite! This is a great place to make yourself at home and "sit a spell."

My family came here recently during the first week of Aladdin theme and the kids were over-the-moon happy. They couldn't stay seated too long because they wanted to explore anf take pictures of the Aladdin decorations which was so thoughtfully layedout with so much detail. Brittany was our waitress and she was amazing as a server and a photographer! She helped my family take many pictures during our short stay here. I believe if you are a family of 4, you ca. stay for 2 hours. We stayed the whole 2 hours and did not feel pressure to leave. Note that even if you have younger kids (I have a 4 and 7 year old) you will have to order entree per person even if your kids dont eat that much. Consider it an admission fee which I still think is worthwhile. We live in NYC and we drove here just for this restaurant. The food however isnt the best but it isnt bad neither. So for the food I would rate it 3, maybe 3.5 stars. The decoration was phenomenal so that's an easy 5 star. I would come back here before they take down the Aladdin theme which I was told might be up for about 8-10 months? Reservations are highly recommended and you do have to mention that you want a specific room since theres other parts and themes throughout different parts of the restaurant.

The omelette was delicious. It was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The toast was exactly how toast should be: perfectly crisp and buttered just right, not drenched and not dry. The home fries were fine, but pretty basic, more like simple fried potatoes and nothing particularly special. That said, everything else made up for it. The coffee was good even black, which says a lot because bad coffee can't hide without cream and sugar. I can't believe I forgot to even take a photo of the food! Service was great, the place was clean, and water and coffee refills were always on point. I also appreciate their system: they bring the check with your food and you pay at the register on your way out which is quick and convenient. One of my favorite things is the location. It's right next to a walking trail, so you can eat and then walk, or walk first and grab food after. Super convenient and a nice bonus. I'd definitely come back.

Then came this past Thanksgiving weekend where it required traveling on I-84 from Cape Cod to get to Danbury and my mom, sister and I decided to try you out. Now, I am in the dog house because they want to know when the next time that we are going. I had the chicken club and it was absolutely delicious. A huge piece of chicken with plenty of flavor. My sister had the short rib sandwich and was raving about it once we continued our drive saying she was so glad she had it even though she had short ribs herself for dinner the previous night. I don't know if that's an indictment on her cooking or what, but she loved it. The star however was the cod dinner that mom had. It was one of the flakiest and freshest pieces of fish she had ever had. We got a very late start to our trip, so by the time 2:00 came on the Saturday afternoon came, we practically had the whole place to ourselves. The only gripe that we had ( not that we necessarily would have changed anything ) was that we noticed after we ordered that the table next to us got a specials menu and we didn't. It was nice and quiet as our waitress let us have a quiet late lunch and if we were ever in the area ever again, we would make a b-line back to the restaurant.
