    Two Eggs, Smashed Potato, Rye Toast, and Sausage ($12.50).
    David L.

    That Breakfast Place is an absolute neighborhood dive, but whether you're a local or just passing through, it's a great place to get a very filling breakfast served by a really friendly staff. The plate consisting of two Eggs, Smashed Potato, Rye Toast, and Sausage ($12.50) was pretty good, though I probably should have ordered the home fries or hash browns - my bad for trying to make a healthier choice in a joint like this. Speaking of trying to be "healthy" - I love that the Avocado Toast is smothered with a heaping serving of bacon. Our server was friendly and helpful to us first-timers by offering suggestions.

    This place has a nice parking lot with ample spots. The inside is a typical local diner. Bright, clean, plenty of booths and counter seating. Huge menu with lots of options which I appreciated. Service was quick and efficient. I got the smoked salmon Benedict with home friends (opted for the sautéed onions) and it was pretty good. We also split a pancake and it was just ok. Overall very decent spot to eat. Prices where a little higher than I would expect but the portions were very good. I love a heavy pour of hollandaise sauce and was not disappointed!

    Good diner grub but pricy On the hunt for good French toast, saw that this place was rated a great hole in the wall breakfast joint. So I opted to make the trek here to try them out. Place is designed to be a diner, with the old school booths and the bench seating. Server was very nice and accommodating. The menu was huge, lots of choices in a small font. Instead of a special, I opted for the cinnamon Toast crunch French toast. Food came out very rapidly. The coffee is Omar's, not great but functional. I don't usually associate strawberries, Nutella, chocolate sauce, and bananas with cinnamon Toast crunch. But I was intrigued on the flavor profile. The fruits were ripe and sweet, the whipped cream was fresh, they used a huge amount of Nutella and chocolate sauce. To the degree that I had to scrape off Nutella to get to the French toast underneath. The actual French toast was underwhelming. Not soaked enough, more bread than custard. There wasn't a lot of cereal and the cinnamon was overwhelmed by the other flavors. Pricing is a little high for the area and for breakfast. They know they are one of the best places around and they charge accordingly. Two pieces of French toast with a coffee came to 18, which isn't cheap. As a local diner breakfast place, it's pretty good. Given that I need to pass five other breakfast places that offer similar quality cheaper or more quantity for the same money, it's not worth a trek. But if you're in the area, it's a good option

    The food is great. I mostly love the Eggs Benedict, and the sandwiches are delicious. The people here are super nice and the device is very well. The atmosphere is chill and it's super busy on the weekends, but I do recommend this place. I love coming here big time.

    Eggs over easy, toast and grilled smashed potatoes and bacon.

    Service was great. My 1st time here. I got 2 eggs over easy, white toast and grilled smashed potatoes with bacon. Food was delicious eggs cooked perfectly, bacon had great flavor. I enjoyed my meal very much. They also have a great menu of lots of options. They also have a lunch menu. I want to try them for lunch sometime. Definitely doing another breakfast there to try something else. If you're looking for some place to get breakfast give this place a try. The grilled smashed potatoes were very good. I had never had them like this.

    4.5 stars. Came here for Sunday breakfast at 7:59 am and got the last table for four. Old timey diner with friendly waitstaff and a great menu selection.our turkey cali Benedict was superb! Love the shredded hash browns too 1/2 a star off for typical weak diner coffee and underwhelming smashed potato --but in many ways it's what to be expected. By the time we left there there were about 8 people in line so good thing to get there early!

    Stopped in for lunch today to enjoy the great food and customer service. Restaurant was not busy so we were greeted immediately and told we could sit where we wanted. Our server, who was very pleasant, arrived quickly and took our drink order. When she returned we placed our order. Two eggs scrambled with cheddar cheese, two fried potato cakes, Irish eggs Benedict with home fries well done with onions. Also ordered a blueberry muffin and corn muffin both grilled. Order came quickly with the eggs being cooked as requested and the muffin grilled to perfection. Potato cakes were nicely fried, crisp and golden. Eggs cooked perfectly with a nice coating of cheddar cheese. Eggs Benedict was a large portion of corned beef shredded under two perfectly cooked eggs sitting on English muffins. The whole dish was covered in a rich hollandaise sauce with excellent flavor and a hint of lemon.home fries were well cooked as requested with plenty of onions added. The eggs were soft and the yolks ran all over the beef and muffins once they were cut open. Between the eggs and hollandaise sauce there was plenty of delicious tasting sauce to run through and coat the potatoes. It all made the dish one of the most memorable I've had in a long time. This is a great place for breakfast. Menu is very large with plenty of options to choose from.

    I decided to come here for breakfast while visiting my kids at college. It was a very good choice. We got in at the beginning of a rush but we were seated in short order. The staff was very attentive and gave some good recommendations for the undecided. The ticket times were great, I was just beginning to enjoy my coffee and the food was served. I had the meat lovers omelette with home fries and toast. It was really good and everyone in my family enjoyed their meals. The pancakes are huge just in case anyone orders them. We will definitely come back to this place!

    TWO REVIEWS IN ONE! I apologize for forgetting to post my review of my first time here...but we're ack so you know it would have been a good one! Today I had the corned beef hash and eggs...homemade hash...pretty good (I might order crispy next time)...also had the biscuits and gravy...yum! The BF had the egg nog French toast...super delicious and a lot of work and thought went into the preparation and presentation... Busy place so prepare for a little wait...service good...we'll be back again for sure!!

    Cute dinner on the side of a highway. Small on the inside but lots of seating. Menu is pretty vast…read morein options between breakfast and lunch so no issue finding something someone would like. We were seated pretty quickly and the waitress was very helpful. The place itself is pretty quiet other than the other conversations going on. There is a ramp to get inside with or stairs. Parking is a shared lot with all other restaurants/stores nearby. My western burger was very appetizing. Usually I feel like diner burgers are bland but they had flavor plus everything else. It came with aioli, lettuce, tomatoes, fried onions, cheese, fries, and pickles! Pricing is not bad, everything is under $20

The waiter's that took my order was not nice she treated me like I was stupid thinking I didn't know what a blt was. We were looking at the Prices very reasonable come to find out I was double of what the menu said. I would never go in that place again I was charged 100 for a simple lunch for four people. I would like to say my blt was made with salami a piece of lettuce and a tomato and charge over what the menu price. It really bothers me that I didn't say anything earlier and that I tip this person but I realized that I didn't want to ruin my grandsons birthday. Not for nothing but my grandson enjoyed his meal.

    Yummy! My friend who lives in Willimantic said this was one of her favorite eateries so we had to…read morestop by! Coming from New York, I eat a lot of good pizza and am sometimes disappointed in other states. However, I've had good pizza in parts of CT and Trigo was no exception! We started out with the salad which was absolutely delicious and perfect on a hot day. The lemon vinaigrette kept everything light and fresh and the addition of feta was fantastic. I kept going back for more! We were a party of four and opted for two white pizzas: mushroom bacon and shrimp pesto. I preferred the mushroom bacon of the two. The toppings were very generous and the bacon had a nice sweet flavor to it. The crust was crispy and delicious. Shrimp is one of my favorite foods but something was missing for me in this pizza; I couldn't put my finger on it. It still tasted good, just wouldn't be my go to. These pizzas + salad was plenty and we had a few leftover slices. We capped off the meal with a brownie to share with ice cream drizzled in olive oil. I love this combo and the cold hot effect. All in all, this was a great meal in Willimantic! Prices were great and staff were accomodating and nice. I liked the aesthetics at Trigo and the fresh flowers were a nice touch. Would go back if in the area!

    Parking: street spots and also spots behind building as well…read more Decor: was suspect from the outside with a dark older brick facade but inside was done up right with a great paint color combo and open pizza area. Maybe some better lighting but a very nice interior with vintage grade school chairs!! Food: presented well and very tasty, pizza was good but had to ask for some crushed red pepper and seasonings. The beet gnocchi was excellent and the hummus was great too. The meatballs were in a skillet and were great but possibly needs more sauce Overall: 100% if in the area it's a revisit for me!!!
