I pulled up…read morea seat by the bar and ordered the "Corned Beef Reuben" (w/ sauerkraut & Swiss on rye bread, served w/ hand-cut fries & thousand island dressing) with a draught pour of Guinness. The sandwich was so delicious and the beer was so refreshing. There was a festive crowd and the staff were very helpful; it was a sea of green apparel and flat caps. Before leaving, I also enjoyed a "Black Velvet" (Guinness mixed with Magner's Cider) and a "Guinness 0.0". Trinity is an Elm City treasure and I hope it is around for many more years to come! Sláinte!

We sat inside and waited for someone to greet us. They did not have a large amount of options so we stuck to their offerings. We ordered a large tray of nachos with chicken and several appetizers.

The place was okay but I don't know if I will come back here on a weeknight.

Between Frank Pepe's and BAR, my friend, a Yale student, prefers the latter, and as a mere tourist,…read moreI deferred the decision to her. Man, so glad I did. We arrived on a Monday around peak dinner time, but there was essentially no wait (apparently uncommon according to my friend -- just a delightful consequence of dining at a college town during the summer). We split a medium pizza (1/2 elote mexican street corn and 1/2 bbq brisket), proving to be more than enough for two plus a more than ample amount of leftovers. Recently, I've gravitated toward thinner pizzas, a far cry from the typical Detroit (foccacia-esque) style pizzas I used to prefer, and BAR's pizza is akin to a flatbread yet very thin, another fallen angel to the GLP's. The undercarriage boasts a brilliant crust, almost cracker-like. However, it should be noted that the pizza is indulgent all the same. The elote pizza is quite possibly the most memorable, unique pizza I've ever had; it arrives almost crimson-red with a generous layer of corn and takis atop. It's still incredibly well balanced despite the hodgepodge of varied toppings. It's hard to pick a favorite between this and the bbq brisket though; while one is incredibly unique the other is simply sumptuous, nothing pedestrian about either of the two. The service is also impeccable, almost rivaling that of southern hospitality. I always thought Californians were friendly but something is in the air every time I visit New Haven. Incredible!

" Y se formó la gozadera... Miami me lo confirmó... "…read more Valentine's Day with my favorite guy (my son ) started at IKEA and somehow turned into a full-on gozadera at Prime BGR in New Haven -- completely on a whim. We walked in with no reservation on Valentine's Day (bold), and the manager couldn't have been more welcoming. Super friendly, got us seated quickly, and set the tone right away. That kind of hospitality matters. The vibe? Cool, modern, slightly moody -- perfect accidental Valentine's dinner energy. The service was on point all night. Attentive, smooth, and genuinely warm. Now let's talk about the moment that activated my Dominican DNA. I ordered the Sweet Plantains with Cilantro Aioli as an appetizer and when I saw plátanos on that menu? República Dominicana presente. . I felt seen. For my main, I had the Temple Salad and added a burger patty (because balance is important ). Fresh, flavorful, satisfying. My son ordered a burger with truffle fries and I am STILL thinking about those fries today. Crispy. Perfect salt. That truffle flavor hit just right. Those fries deserve their own review. And because it was Valentine's Day and I believe in celebrating myself too, I had the Pineapple Express. Divine. Tropical. Smooth. The kind of drink that keeps the gozadera going. From IKEA chaos to Prime BGR glow-up in under an hour. Great food. Great vibe. Great service. New Haven confirmed it. We'll absolutely be back. #PrimeBGR #NewHavenEats #LaGozadera #DominicanApproved #ValentinesWithMyFavorite #TruffleFries

We tried 3 different wing flavors: buffalo, cajun dry rub, and garlic parm. Overall, the wings were somewhat disappointing - the meat was a bit dry (still decent for the price though). The buffalo flavor was my favorite as it helped balance out the dryness out and it had a nice kick. The garlic parm and cajun dry rub were on the saltier side but nice with the blue cheese and ranch on the side which helped to mellow these out. The star of the show was their Bar Burger - perfectly cooked, juicy and topped with BBQ sauce, grilled onions, bacon, and cheddar cheese. The portion of fries was generous too. Though they do offer a large variety of food on their menu, their burgers. in particular are delicious. Drinks were great, service was attentive and quick, and the atmosphere was laidback. Overall, a solid option for grabbing a draft or a late night bite!

From what I gather this is a smalll local chain in the Applebees/Chilis style. Only the food and service is much, much better. From the moment we walked in we're seated promptly and the hostess set the tone m, warm and welcoming. We had the artichoke dip appetizer and this was definitely one the best versions. The tortilla chips that came with it were definite fresh and up to the job for this dip. For mains I had the ribs and these were really good. Fall off the bone good. We also had fish and chips and burgers and absolutely no complaints. Burgers were cooked as ordered. The fish and the sweet potato fried and regular fries were al very good. Nothing was greasy at all. The coleslaw was mid. But honestly that's ok. It was definitely fresh like everything else. Our server was exceptionally nice and attentive. She really wanted to make sure we had a positive experience. My son summed it up best. This is a solid place and if we're in the area we'd definitely go back.
