I got the Classic Grilled cheese and dipped it of course in some savory tomato soup. Happened to go on national grilled cheese day so they had a $5 special as well as the food truck out front which you can catch at various places. Service was quick and friendly and they even have a nice selection of cheeses you can sample and purchase on the side of the register. They have some outdoor tables outside because what's better than a grilled cheese on a sunny day. Can't wait to go back!

The shop is super cute, and the cheese case is very impressive with a wide variety of fancy cheeses. The staff is friendly and they made our sandwiches so quickly! My husband ordered the classic sandwich and I had the french onion grilled cheese.

I've been a fan for many years, and now my husband is a fan as well, we shall return!

I was so pleasantly surprised from our first visit at Sakana that I had to make a return trip later…read morethe same week. It was a humble reminder that you don't need to go to a culinary destination to find good food. Cheshire Connecticut may not be known for its food scene, however, I found Sakana was a genuine diamond in the rough. My expectations were admittedly low going in. My level of skepticism is always high when I see the "Asian Bistro" moniker, as it is frequently used for restaurants to try to appeal to the masses at the expense of quality by having a "jack-of-all-trades" menu that lacks the technical intricacies and mastery required for specific dishes. Additionally, these establishments tend to follow a "cookie-cutter" menu and offer the same boring dishes you can find at every other Asian Bistro. Even when initially walking towards the restaurant, I had my doubts. The exterior of Sakana honestly looked more like a clinic than a restaurant. Once I saw the menu however, my skepticism shifted towards optimism. For a local bistro, they feature a surprisingly extensive wine and cocktail menu, including premium sake options. I was particularly impressed to find toro on the menu; although it's undoubtedly becoming more of a trend in Connecticut, I was nevertheless happy to see it offered at Sakana as well. Overall I liked their sushi selections and everything I ordered was well-prepared and tasted fresh. We ordered a chicken and broccoli for our daughter and found the chicken tender and broccoli perfectly cooked. That may not sound impressive to those reading, but you'll be surprised how many restaurants fail to execute this baseline dish correctly. The service, although pleasant, was probably the only "weak link" of our experiences here. The quality of service was noticeably inconsistent between our two visits, and they would benefit vastly from having a more reliable and experienced front-of-house team to match the execution coming from the kitchen and sushi bar. Despite this minor gripe, Sakana was a standout. As long as I'm in the area, they will definitely be among the top of my list of places to eat!

So friendly. Is the food exceptional? To me no, but my parents enjoy it. Tonight we started with crab rangoons. Pretty good. Sauce on the side not very exciting. A chili sauce would be better. I got a sushi roll with White tuna inside and cooked shrimp on top and wasabi mayo. I forget the name of the roll but it was better than the two times I've ordered takeout. Miso soup was also good. Their soup bowls are in the shape of a heart which is super cute. Dad got some sort of a mixed protein dish with brown sauce (had shrimp, chicken and beef). Mom got the chicken and garlic sauce. They both got fried rice on the side. I tried it and it was very bland. Dad also got a salad with his meal and the ginger dressing was not very good. Red coloring to it. Usually ginger dressing is more on the orange side. Dad also got the Malaysian chicken coconut soup to start and it could use a bit more flavor. Was a bit watery. Mom loved her sweet and sour soup. Nice that this place is 5 minutes away. Cheshire needs more restaurants. Def not my fav restaurant in town though. Food to me is just ok.

Mustard dressing served on a multigrain bread. I don't know that it was monster cheese for sure, but I will give them the benefit of the doubt. There wasn't much dressing on it at all, but the bread was fresh and the sandwich tasted pretty good. I also got two brown sugar chocolate chip cookies which were OK, but just overly sweet and you could feel some of the sugar on your teeth when you chewed. From an aesthetic and overall ambiance perspective, the "Mabel's Tables" is blacked out above Michael's Deli signage, recognizing the change in ownership without there being any other such signage or notification, which doesn't make for a good look or impression. The display case and product shelves were pretty sparse, again, not a good look or feeling given that they will be there a long time.

Souper Soups is a mail order business out of Meriden, CT and their website entices you with nine different soup mix flavors sold in a few different ways - Regular, Gluten Free, No Salt Added, and Gluten Free No Salt Added. Not every one of the nine is available all four ways, but they get pretty high grades for dietary sensitivity, don't you agree? And for the curious Yelpers out there, here are the nine flavors currently listed on the website - ALGERIAN VEGETABLE SOUP GRANDMA'S NOODLE SOUP MAC & CHEESE SOUP POTATO CHEDDAR SOUP SKI SLOPE SOUP (SAUSAGE & BEAN) SPICY BEAN SOUP SWEET CORN CHOWDER TOMATO CHEDDAR SOUP VEGETARIAN CHILI SOUP Most of the mixes are $10, but none are over $12. Most will serve 5 or 6, but none will serve less than 3. I bought the Vegetarian Chili Soup and it was pretty darned simple to make. Hell, even I couldn't mess it up. I just added six cups of water with their bag of the mix and let it get happy on the stove for thirty minutes. It looked great, really smelled great, and sure tasted great!

The hashbrowns were the small semi round square hashbrowns that you can find in Walmart and they tasted like they were sitting in the refrigerator, they were stale and had no flavor. I asked the cashier if we can exchange them when she went to the back the woman told her no because she had to make them fresh, which I find to be ridiculous because she brought them out in a matter of minutes first time around. I believe the manager, then went up to the cashier, looked at the register and with an attitude said, well, we didn't charge you anyway! Shrugged her shoulders and walked away. I thought that to be rude, considering that we decided to go to them instead of McDonald's or Wendy's and we probably would've had a better breakfast. On a side note, they appear to have an espresso machine, however, only offer half-and-half and whole milk.

All the service members were great, but he was phenomenal. We had plenty of space as the table was large enough to fit all of us comfortably. We didn't feel like we were on top of any other people close by, nor each other. We will definitely be back again without any doubt!!

The development there has come a long way over the last few years, making it a great destination for a quick lunch or a sit-down dinner. Plus, having plenty of parking in a modern, well-maintained square is a massive win--no circling the block looking for a spot here. While the name promises "Bao," I haven't ventured into that side of the menu just yet. Why? Because the Ramen is too good to pass up. The Meat Soup (Ramen) is my go-to. The broth is rich, savory, and clearly made with care. It's the kind of "fantastic" comfort food you want on a chilly Connecticut day. The meat is tender and the portions are satisfying. If you're in the Oxford area and looking for authentic flavors in a clean, modern setting, this is the place. It's easy to get to, easy to park, and the soup never misses.
