    Two eggs special is excellent & just enough , baked apples are the best :)
    Jennifer P.

    We are definetly regulars here for breakfast every Sunday! Open till 2 pm . Great clean restaurant right next to Tasca Jeep dealership on Hartford Ave! We love the staff always super friendly & can recite our orders even if we skip a few weeks great specials daily that my husband always tries :). Huge room in the back too for overflow ! Excellent service too! I hear lunch is great too.

    Food is excellent. Service is great. One of my favorite places for breakfast . Very friendly staff always makes you feel welcomed

    Kielbasa then Linguica
    Ravuth O.

    They didn't do a good job checking on tables. I brought my dad there since I was getting repairs done for my Jeep next door. They did a good job letting people know the waiting time when walking in. Food was decent. The linguica looked like Kielbasa with the color then the regular close to red linguica I'm use to. Food was ok. Service was a little less then desired. The waitress did not check on us. Had to yell when she walked really fast to pass by us. My dad wanted water with his coffee and I had to share my water due to lack of attention or service not being provided. The only time I saw her was getting drinks and place the food on the table and that was it. Disturbing was that we waited too long for the check. I walked to wheee the register was to pay there and while I was signing my credit card payment the other waitress, my waitress that never paid attention to us, throw the pen right at where I was. The pen cup was next to me. She could of placed the pen there and said excuse me! Rude! I won't be there again. Service not my cup of tea. Never had an issue with Homefries restaurant in the same area.

    Super quick service and pretty good food! What more can you ask for when it comes to breakfast right? From the outside, it seems like there is slim pickings for parking...even inside seems small until you walk into the back. I ordered the hash and eggs (scrambled soft with cheese) and cinnamon apples. I liked the hash, it was good, nothing super special. I think the eggs could of been softer and seasoned but it tasted good. I wouldn't order the apples again it was very bland but overall I was satisfied with my meal and I would go back next time if it meant being in and out with a yummy breakfast in less than 45 minutes.

    Food and service was great. Nice and clean. Everyone was very nice and what great team work ! Young man was really making it work for the servers. He kept the coffee full in the pots and cups, tables were cleaned fast! Great job guys we will return!! Highly recommend! Only wish they had name tags .

Waiter ended up being the bartender with assistance from a very green employee. Our 2 appetizers, Stuffiies and shrimp cocktail were still on the table when our entree's arrived. It was very rushed service. Couldn't get the young employees attention for small things like more water, and another drink. He tried taking away the shrimp cocktail with a shrimp still untouched. When the waiter/: bartender finally stopped by again he tried taking the shrimp also. It was kind of funny but we felt very rushed. I had the Veal Parmesan. Huge. Awesome as usual. I ordered Angel hair and got a huge plate of mushy over cooked pasta. Big demerit.I only eat half of the Veal ,it's so big.The new guy took the leftover veal, with the big bone still attached, and when he returned the boxed up veal , he had cut the bone off and it wasn't in the box. Didn't see that right away, but thats a huge bone with a bunch of meat still on it. So no one was supervising this kid. No proper server would ever do that. I didn't say anything because it was already in the garbage, so what good would it do. So overall rushed, unprofessional service. Mushy angel hair and I got shorted on mybveal. For the price we pay, everything ought to be perfect. Has been every other time. Not so last night. Still love the place.

What a hidden gem!!!! Food: - It's a breakfast/brunch diner with a big menu but I was so surprised to see pupusa on the menu! I have been craving it! Pupusas are a thick griddle cake or flatbread from El Salvador and Honduras made with cornmeal or rice flour. So I ordered the red beans and cheese and herb and cheese one (it came with 3 pupusas). All I can say was wow! It hit the spot and it tasted so authentic and delicious! - I also ordered a side of fried plantains and home-fries which were also cooked just right! - for drinks I ordered the hibiscus juice drink which was so refreshing. Service: The service was great. Our waiter was friendly and very attentive. Our orders came out pretty quick too. And the place was closing and they didn't rush us. Ambiance: It looks like a typical cozy diner. Lots of seating. A big screen tv near the door. There's also a parking lot right in front, so it's an easy spot to find parking. I would definitely go again!

Our whole family can't stop talking about how good everything was. That says a lot. First, the space. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the acoustics are genuinely impressive. My grandfather wears hearing aids and he had zero trouble following conversation all night. That's rare and it meant so much to us. We had a reservation and they sat us early, which immediately set the tone. The bread and bread oil kit they bring out? Do not skip it. Just trust me. We had kids with us and their food came out so fast I actually laughed. Our food followed shortly after and the pasta was truly exceptional. Just genuinely high quality, generous portions, and completely worth every penny. We were shocked at how affordable the bill was for what we got. Our server Envy was an absolute gem. Friendly, attentive, and so kind. But honestly the whole staff was like that. Other servers who weren't even in our section came over just to joke around with our kids. The table was never cluttered. A dirty dish sat in front of us for maybe ten seconds before it was gone. I travel for work domestically and for pleasure domestically and internationally and can say that Bar Lino is the only flawless restaurant experience I have ever had. Flawless from start to finish. We will be back. Bring everyone you love!

When we arrived there was parking available and no wait, but by the time we left, the tables were pretty full as was the parking lot. The Cozy Grill is quite literally cozy inside... the menu features breakfast classics but also an impressive Benedicts menu. I'm a Benny girl through and through so this was very appealing to me. I tried their most popular option, the Fig, Prosciutto, and Goat Cheese. It sounds like a bizarre combination for Eggs Benny, but let me tell you, it really works! I was very happy with my choice. The home fries were also quite good. My friend had eggs and corned beef hash. She is a huge fan of corned beef hash and was really impressed by how it was served (more elegantly than is typical). I, never having had corned beef hash in my life, tasted hers and thought it was really good! All in all, I'm so glad I finally discovered this spot. I can see why it's so popular and can imagine much longer lines on the weekends. Arrive early for your best chances at parking :)
