    I love stopping into parkville market, But it's not often that I am in the area. I had to stop in today, since I was going to be 5 minutes away. I was very excited to try the meltdown grill. I got the Big Mac and truffle Parmesan curly fries. I've never had curly fries with those toppings, usually just French fries. They were both delicious. The lady working was nice and hard at work! It seemed to be a popular place when I was there!! I can't wait to go back to try a burger!

    Smash Melt
    Kelly P.

    Love the whole place at Parkville market first off. Nestled inside there, is meltdown grill. They have really good sandwiches and burger combinations. I got the Smash melt and a side of Mac and cheese. The melt was Savory with gooey cheese, and a rich flavorful sauce. The Mac and cheese was good, but just basic. I'll definitely be getting them again.

    The Meltdown Grill is the perfect place for a guilty pleasure cheeseburger. They are huge, hot, and cheesey. They are located in Parkville Market, and you can see the food being made after you order. You do have to wait by the window for when they call your order, which sometimes is superceded by a Doordash or UberEats. But the food comes out in a reasonable time, you don't have to worry about anything being undercooked! I could think of no better place for warm comfort meal, especially on a rainy day. If you get toppings, like Mac and cheese, grab a fork because the hamburger patty is pretty considerable.

    Philly Cheesesteak
    Melissa C.

    They have a lot of large portion food options , would like to try their hot dogs at some point. I tried the Philly Cheesesteak and thought it was relatively low quality, particularly for the price of $18. The cheese was soupy and melting off, bun tasted similar to McDonalds. Service was quick. Parkville in general is a good atmosphere with lots of things to try.

    Triple Cheese Steak & Cheese
    Kevin W.

    Visited Parkville Market in Hartford CT and Meltdown Grill caught my attention. I tried the triple cheese steak & cheese from there which i recommend getting if you really like alot of extra cheese on your steak & cheese's. Although it is on the higher side price wise around $18, the quality of the food was good and the service was excellent. Ony had to wait about 10 minutes for my meal. If you havent checked out Parkville Market in Hartford CT I definitely recommend it. They have many other food options and the atmosphere in there is always lively.

    King Kobe Reuben Dog

    I tried the King Kobe Reuben Dog to try and step outside of my comfort zone... Well.. it was delish!!! I can't speak highly enough. It didn't have a thousand island dressing and there was so much flavor that it didn't need it in the LEAST! The bun was fresh and yummy -- a potato bun. The corned beef was juicy and not overdone or too greasy... just flavorful. The cheese crisps (there were three) were off to the side and crunchy. They seemed fresh and maybe homemade. I ate this hotdog in like 4 or 5 bites and I wish that I would've taken smaller bites... but I couldn't help myself. Ate almost all of those curly fries too!! Then I called it a day!

    Look at them hot-diggity dogs.

    I was back in Connecticut in December visiting friends and family when I ended up at the Parkville Market in Hartford for some lunch. This was my second time at the market so it was my job to give another one of the vendors a try and that vendor was the Meltdown Grill this time around. This place has a stacked menu of hot dogs, cheesesteaks, melts, and burgers with an insane amount of options for all of the above. I was feeling a little feisty and self deprecating, so I ended up order the two hot dog combo with curly fries and it was a decision I would reflect on for months to come. For hot dogs, I ended up ordering the Mac Attack (Macaroni & Cheese + Bacon) and the chili cheese dog (self explanatory). Both hot dogs were absolutely delicious and everything I could possibly want out of a hot dog afternoon (some days just need to be hot dog afternoons). The curly fries rounded out a pretty good lunch and were exactly what I was craving, very very good food. Overall, Meltdown Grill is a wonderful addition to the Parkville Market and I very much look forward to trying a burger from here on a future visit to Connecticut. Hungry? Get over here and dig in.

    Parking: you might miss the entrance but it is on the left side of the building and marked for the marketplace but not specific restaurants since there are a ton in this one location. When you pull around the back, there is a HUGE parking lot with an overflow section as well. Decor: Not Applicable as they are in a marketplace foodcourt type set up with bench seating down the center of the location. If you had to say, it would be a converted factory look with exposed beams. Also a very large outdoor seating area as well. Staff: Very friend and fun to place orders, the guys on the grill are hard workers turning out fresh hot food very quickly. Food: Mostly unique grinders and hot dogs, I had the chili cheese and it was very good...get extra napkins. Also side note, the deep fried Orie's are AMAZING!!! Price: About average for what you would expect. Overall: Great place to bring the kids or take a break from work and get a quick bite to eat.

    I am in Hartford today and thought I'd checkout one of the great restaurants I'm always seeing on Yelp. This place lived up to its stars! Excellent burger. I tried the sunrise burger with the fried egg on top. It was juicy, flavorful and hearty. The curly fries weren't awesome- but that's not why I came. I actually had a hard time finding this place. I didn't realize what the market was- it's a space full of different food counters- like a in mall food court-but leveled up. The middle of the space is full of picnic tables and there's seating outside in a courtyard as well. There's no signage outside or on the street to tell you where the restaurant is you're looking for. But once you park and walk over to the market there's signage. Several of the restaurants inside look really good- but the place with a line was Meltdown Grill. It's an unusual place in an unusual area- driving through here I would have never thought good food could be found nearby. The buildings are industrial and it's near a freeway overpass. But good it is! It's worth the drive and a nice surprise. Now if they'd just serve Coke instead of Pepsi.....

    My office has ordered lunch from Lenoci several times in the past, and most recently today. Lenoci…read moreis located in Old Wethersfield right next to Noci Gelato. We placed orders for 12 of us over the phone today, we went to pick up the goods around an hour later. I got their Italian Sandwich this time. Previously I've had several of the salads. I think collectively my office has had their entire menu. From sandwiches, to salads, to pizzas, to lasagna and more. Every single meal has always been super fresh, where all you can hear is "mmmmmMmmmms..." My lunch was served on a freshly baked Italian hoagie roll, filled with roasted peppers, ham, tomatoes, mixed greens, capicola and provolone cheese. In addition to each and every single ingredient being super fresh, this was also a very large portion. I could have easily shared the other half with someone else, had it on another day or ate it right after the first portion... which one did I do? The restaurant it's self is little and very cute, it was full at 12:00 o'clock today. If you're looking for a quick and fresh lunch or dinner around the Wethersfield area, Lenoci's will check each of your boxes.

    What an amazing summer lunch spot!! Located in beautiful historic downtown Wethersfield, the front…read morepatio offers comfortable, shading seating while you watch the world pass by. The girls were lovely and patient with those that didn't know the menu. Offering specials and favorites alike. For me the multiple tables of Italian men eating their soup and bread lunch, while catching up on the gossip is something you do not see nowadays. Again a lovely spot.

    "Rose darling come to me All I ask of you…read moreIs make my wildest dreams come true" (Steely Dan) You probably don't need a PHD in linguistics to surmise that the Italian words "La Rosa" translates into the English words "The Rose". And if your wildest dreams happen to revolve around Italian comfort foods and well stacked sandwiches, well, do I have a place to make those wildest dreams come true for you! La Rosa is your quintessential Italian deli with dozens of grinders, paninis, wraps, salads, soups and a daily hot bar of pasta and chicken entrees. We ordered a grilled Panino Melenzani ($12) with eggplant, tomato, fresh mozzarella, basil and olive oil. It was grilled right in front of our eyes, so it was as fresh as could be. It had plenty of tender sliced eggplant, yummy cheese and fresh tomatoes. I went with my usual, an Italian Combo (half size for $14) stacked a mile high with Ham, Turkey, Genoa, Mortadella, Capicola, and Provolone with lettuce, tomato, onions, and peppers on a fresh loaf of Italian bread. It was superb, and the portion size was so generous that it lasted me for three lunches. As we were paying, we spied some home-made cookies by the register and grabbed an oatmeal and a chocolate chip to take home. Everything ran $32 for a ton of wonderful Italian goodness. We didn't get a chance to check out the hot bar. It wasn't open today because LaRosa's Marketplace was closing early for personal reasons. But I promise you, the next time we visit we'll leave with one of their chicken or pasta entrees. We love our Italian delis, and LaRosa's has immediately shot up into our top tier.

    I ordered the prosciutto di Parma panini. Bread, tomatoes, fresh mozz, all delicious. So so…read moredisappointed in the star of the sandwich, the prosciutto. It was so tough that I couldn't even get one bite without the entire sandwich getting destroyed. When I finally would get the meat separated by grinding and chewing with ferocity the meat would instantly get stuck in my teeth. So off putting. Clearly was either not fresh or sliced WAY too thick. Not a pleasant experience for an 18 dollar panini.
