I've been frequently talking online about hot dogs this year, and people kept bringing up…read moreBridgeport's Merritt Canteen and their "we don't give refunds for our spicy chili" hot dogs. Curiosity got the better of me and I finally visited, just for a chili cheese dog. They also have breakfast, burgers, wings, sandwiches and fried seafood etc. The first thing you should know is Merritt Canteen is one of the very few CT places to score a Guy Fieri Diners Drive Inns & Dives visit. That clearly means something. The atmosphere was clean and classic. Service was friendly and efficient. I believe MC uses Hummel Hot Dogs, which is a quality dog. It was well cooked. The bun was fresh. The presumably American Cheese slice was melted over the top of my chili cheese dog. This part was way above average. Which brings me to the chili sauce. I don't have the recipe for this sauce. So I'm giving you my impression and not stating facts. The sauce, tastes like a thick meat gravy, with a generous amount of hot pepper sauce such as Tabasco added. There wasn't really a noticeable meat component. Maybe that gets electrically blended into the sauce. I don't know, but I didn't get a classic ground beef vibe here. I understand some people love this sauce. I suspect those same people are big Tabasco fans and liberally add it to most of their meals. Me, I'm one and done with the chili sauce. I like nuanced spice. This was not that. I did finish the dog, but my resolve wavered. It's hard to discount the impact of the chili sauce in scoring this review because it was the dominant force of the chili dog. But the truth is, the dog, melted cheese, bun, service, and atmosphere were all good. So I'll score this a 3.5 and round up to 4 Stars.

Service was good and quick, but one of our orders was forgotten about so that was a bit disappointing. We ordered their pierogi, wings, onion soup, lobster roll, and a burger. Everything was actually very good. The pierogis were flavorful and comforting. The french onion soup was perfect for the cold weather. Wings were also pretty standard and good. And, I absolutely loved their lobster roll. Not a bad spot for dinner!

Located within Bridgeport, a much needed addition to local authentic cuisine! A large variety of…read moretasty meals to choose from. Prices are similar to Restaurant meals. I would suggest calling in your order for take out, instead of waiting, as there are minimal street parking within the location. Over all, I was very impressed with the food, but due to location and lack of dining area (restaurant style), I may be slightly remiss how often I may be returning. Again, great for take out or catered events!

NEVER AGAIN! We have been patrons of the Galaxy Diner for…read moreyears, having eaten breakfast, lunch and dinner and stopped last night for dinner. I ordered Roast Beef Au Jus, with mashed potatoes and apple sauce. They don't serve rolls, salad or anything extra, and when the roast beef arrived, it was slices of DARK GRAY BROWN with NO pink, floating in a cup of over salted "au jus" and was inedible! I tried to eat the meat, gave my husband a piece, he said, "don't eat that!" When I told the server, she brought over a guy who I assume was the owner or manager. I told him the meat was not fresh, tasted old and, instead of apologizing, he started BULLYING ME INSISTING HE WOULD CHARGE FOR EVERYTHING BUT THE BEEF, and LOUDLY kept repeating the meat was "fine" and that I "just didn't like it!" Well, NO SIR, yes, the MEAT WAS HORRIBLE and he kept arguing and insisted "is it fair?" to charge me for the potatoes, applesauce and salad. GUESS WHAT? He charged $7.25 for a side of mashed potatoes, $4.50 for a tiny dish of applesauce, and $4.95 for the salad! The salad was bagged mixed lettuce which was thrown into a bowl, bits of wet spinach and wilted lettuce mixed up, it was just AWFUL! So, my "dinner" cost $16.70 with no meat! Now, Galaxy Diner WAS one of our favorite diners but NOT ANY MORE! Unless that owner changes his attitude and cleans up the diner, business will continue to shrink! And IT HAS shrunk! Now we know why the diner isn't HALF as busy as used to be! GOOD LUCK AT ATTRACTING AND KEEPING NEW CUSTOMERS!

It was really tasty, though I wished it had just a little more crab. For my drink, I ordered the Summer Sips: Purple Haze and really enjoyed it--refreshing and flavorful. My entrée was the Lobster Pappardelle Pasta, made with Maine and langostino lobster, asparagus, and fresh tomatoes in a savory garlic sauce. This dish was a standout! The pasta was cooked well, and I was impressed with the generous portion of lobster. Service was just okay--it wasn't busy, but things moved a little slow. Thankfully, we weren't in a rush, so it didn't affect the meal too much. Overall, I'd definitely return. Great food and a nice atmosphere!
