First visit this past weekend and I look forward to returning. Immediately loved the atmosphere…read more The large bar with several TV's. We sat at a booth and were quickly greeted by our server Krystle(K no A). She was amazing the entire evening. Checked on our table often and was very engaging. She asked my IPA preferences and without asking supplied me with samples that fit my taste buds. The Sweetwater Half Gummie was a hit. My wife enjoyed the Fontina Vodka Penne and my Whiskey Burger w/Truffle Fries was cooked to perfection. Needless to say we will return and we will request Krystle as our server. I highly recommend this establishment!

This Yard House location is attached to the SONO Collection Mall, on the Bloomingdale's side; no…read moreaccess from inside but just a short walk. Parking at the mall is convenient - pay by app or a link sent by text (we paid $3 for 3 hours so $1/hr.) There is Happy hour from 3-6pm like at other locations: 1/2 off select appetizers and pizza, discount on some alcoholic beverages. Great deal - our app orders came out to about $5-$7 each. Still enjoyed the sliders, tenders which came with fries; more generous with the calamari here; fried cheese curds are like mozzarella bits; liked the crispy brussell sprouts, well more burnt than crispy but liked them anyway. I know we ordered mostly fried food but there were other options for HH. We just didn't feel like having nachos, boneless wings and pizza. Blackened ahi tuna sandwich was good although some found the sauce a bit salty. Added $2 to change fries to onion rings. Mac and cheese had fried mushrooms and oil which we had on the side. We went on a weekday, so not as busy. Service was friendly and fast. Food came out pretty quickly and got drink refills when needed.

A fantastic find in SONI. Trendy, warm, and welcoming space. Our party of five was seated right…read moreaway at a great high-top near the bar. Michelle, our server, was excellent--personable, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food was outstanding from start to finish. Highlights included steak tartare, scallop crudo, sardines, and sourdough bread, followed by swordfish, chicken, steak, pasta ragu, and scallops--all delicious. Definitely order the bread!! Amazing experience--we'll definitely be back!

ORIGIN: Chef/Owner Jeff Taibe initially opened Taproot in…read moresuburban Bethel with wife Steph Sweeney (Owner/Manager), but found a good percent of their innovation-seeking customers travel from Connecticut's shoreline to visit. After they became aware of the availability of a large space restaurant in the city of Norwalk, the restaurant migrated to its present spot. LOCATION: The restaurant is in a lively location, with a movie theater across the street and a convenient parking lot in the back. ATMOSPHERE: The space, which is divided by walls into three dining areas, has a "shabby chic" aesthetic and is lit by tall and wide paned industrial windows. EXPERIENCE: I've visited for brunch and Happy Hour with friends who live or work in Norwalk. Chef Taibe is creative and skillful, and I'm forever impressed by the dishes he serves. As a result, it comes as no surprise that the restaurant was recognized as best in Fairfield County during the Connecticut Restaurant Association's 2023 Crazies award ceremony. (Chef Taibe was finalist for best chef in all of the state the very same year.) The pimento cheese starter topped with Benton ham jam (happy hour/dinner) and smoked brisket hash (brunch) highlight how Chef Jeff Taibe transforms and elevates common menu items into ones that are memorable and crave-inducing. TIPS: Adding to the menu variety, specials are available between 5-9 pm as follows: Tuesdays: Burger plus Beer combo ($18); Wednesdays: Seafood discounts and specials; Thursdays: Smoked Prime Rib ($65); Fridays: Fossil Farm Game specials. It appears that walk ins are always seated in bar dining area, regardless of whether the central dining area appears free. If you rather not sit on a high top bench or stool, a reservation is recommended. The restaurant is also accessible via a back parking lot entrance.

The service was the best part of the experience. I came for my birthday and our waiter was just…read moregreat; attentive, friendly, and professional. I greatly appreciated how he even pronounced my name correctly when he sang happy birthday!! The portions were plentiful for the appetizers, entrees and sides. We left comfortably full and all fit very reasonable prices!! Aside from the main dining area they had a bar section in the back that was very popular amongst other clientele. The separation allowed for a more classy and intimate setting in the mainly fining area and a more casual spot by the bar where you could catch a game on TV. Will come back!

Blackstone Steakhouse has amazing food, good service and a nice upscale ambiance…read more The main dining area is in the front, and the bar is in the back. You can have a romantic dinner for two, or you can bring a large group. Blackstone can handle both well. The bar has bar stools and high top tables. You can enjoy your meal in the bar if you want. The service, regardless of where you sit, is really good - friendly and attentive. The food is incredible. - Sizzling Bacon as an appetizer - a must have; always a favorite - Bone in Ribeye - great flavor and always prepared and cooked to perfection - The sides are for the table to share, and they are so good I always try to visit Blackstones when I am in town. Highly recommended!
