"Burgers and fries and cherry pies It was simple and good back then" (Charley Pride) Walking into VBS is like walking into a time machine and popping out in the 1950's. I met my brother for lunch today and we LOVED our visit. Nothing fancy here, no goat cheese or duck fat or boba tea in sight. Just good old-fashioned chow like burgers, dogs, fries, rings, chili, sandwiches, wings and fried food. Not a salad or vegetable in sight except for the hash brown potatoes and the lettuce and tomato slices on a few sandwiches. I ordered a Red-Hot dog ($3.99), Onion Rings ($3.25), and a can of soda for under $10. How was it? Man, it was freaking great! I asked for ketchup and diced onions on the dog, and it came out perfectly - a big spicy link on a soft roll with plenty of flavor. And those onion rings were golden brown and excellent. My brother went for a burger and fries, and his food looked just as good -a big burger on a kaiser roll with gorgeous tomato slices, and some of the most perfectly cooked fries I've seen in a long time. We grabbed a table for two in the small dining room and watched the steady parade of take-out customers walk in and leave with their paper bag prize of food. The young lady who took our order, and the gent on the grille were friendly and super-efficient and professional. Bottom line is this -My bargain priced lunch was made fresh in front of my eyes, and the portion size was generous, piping hot and delicious. PRO TIP This is cash only, so don't expect to use your credit card here. There is an ATM in the back of the dining room.

Apps great, drinks even better service by Ace the bartender. You rock! Great ambience.read more

Tuesday night my boyfriend and I were going out to celebrate our anniversary. We picked this place…read morebased on the pictures and reviews on Google; the food looked phenomenal. We started with fried mozzarella and lamb lollipops. Both were just OK. While the mozzarella was fine the sauce was very sweet and the mozzarella was not hot (like it sat while they were waiting for the lamb to cook). The lamb was too gamey for me but my boyfriend ate it, definitely frozen not fresh. We ordered several drinks, and when the fourth one arrived there was lipstick on the glass. The server and bartender were very apologetic and remade the drink. Understandable, sometimes these things happen. For an entrée I went with the pesto gnocchi with a chicken cutlet and he got the skirt steak with chimichurri. Except it didn't have chimichurri; he didn't say anything and just ate it. The gnocchi was so overcooked it dissolved when you tried to stick a fork in it or put it in your mouth, the pesto cream sauce was broken as if it had cooked too long. Gnocchi only takes three minutes to cook because it's made with potato... I'm not sure that whoever was cooking knew that. The chicken cutlet looked nothing like the other pictures, I would assume the pictures posted are from the previous owners or different chef. It tasted very sulfur as if the chicken wasn't fresh, I couldn't eat that either. My boyfriend and I go out to dinner 2 to 3 times a week. I never send food back, but disgusting. Our waitress did come back and say they could remake it which i said no, I was so turned off I didn't even want to eat anything else there because I felt sick to my stomach. When it was time to leave our server brought over the digital machine to tap and pay that shows the total. As my boyfriend went to pay I said it sounds like they charged for my dinner (total was $155, my dish was $34 that I didn't touch, I insisted he not pay for it and asked for a waitress. When I asked her if we had been charged she said she had asked her manager if she could take it off and he said no. WHAT?! I told her to send her manager out because I was not paying for something I didn't eat because it wasn't cooked properly. She left and said she would go ask him again, and I hate to say this seemed like something she's had to do before. At no point did we ever see the manager, not over the lipstick on the drink cup, not over the food, not even in passing. Mind you we were the only couple in the restaurant. When she did return she said she got it all taken care of and was able to take it off and honestly I pity that poor server because she was excellent and God knows what she has to go through with her "manager". She doesn't deserve that. My family owned a very successful restaurant for 40 years, there's a saying in the restaurant industry... "The customer is always right". But even if they are wrong how can you even try to charge them for something they did not eat? Was I supposed to force myself to eat it? It's my guess that they figured no one looks at the bill because it's all digital and we were dumb and just gonna pay for it. I don't leave one star reviews very often, but given the circumstances that was generous. Horrible restaurant, horrible management. We left and went down the street to Relish Wine Bar. I had dinner and we both enjoyed drinks and dessert. Thank God that saved our anniversary from being completely horrible.

I order dinner and they were out of the hanger steak. My boyfriend ordered and they were out of the paella. I ended up getting the chicken cutlet board. The chicken was very dry, it was like a fish fry batter, not what I think of when I hear "cutlet". Over cooked, salty. My boyfriend got the salmon. I tasted it at the end of the meal, I couldn't even believe he tried to eat it. It was very overcooked and so fishy. Also it said that his potatoes were Lyonnaise potatoes, Definitely not, they were thickly sliced, lacked seasoning, just a miss. Drink service was very slow, forgot a drink too. The waiter mentioned they're in between menus; i'm hoping my feedback can be helpful to the restaurant. Also it is my pet peeve when servers don't tell you upon seating you that they are out of an item. Being they were out of both of the entrées we wanted we may have chose to leave and come back another day and possibly have a more positive experience.

We wanted to have…read morea celebration dinner, but didn't want to go far, so we decided on Uptown since it is close to our house. We entered the establishment and we were seated right away. My daughter and I ordered the Hot Honey Wings for an appetizer, and my daughter had a Cheeseburger with French Fries, and I ordered the Meat Lovers Paella. I ordered the paella because I have always wanted to try it, but I don't eat seafood, so I'm glad they had a meat paella. If you're ordering the Pallea, it will take about thirty to thirty minutes, so I would order an appetizer. The wings came out, and they were good, and the sauce was good. My only problem is that many restaurants that make wings seem to miss the seasoning, and the wings were missing flavor. It was fried well, but it was missing flavor. I loved the Meat Lovers Paella, which was packed with flavor. The paella came out in a cast-iron pan, and the meats were cooked well. The steak was moist, full of flavor, and cooked well. The rice was full of flavor and delicious. The Paella had a rich flavor profile, with the prominent tastes of saffron and smoky paprika coming together to create a satisfying and aromatic experience. I would definitely be back for the Paella because the presentation was on point. The customer service was great as the waiter was friendly, outgoing, and very knowledgeable about the menu.

By FAR the TOP wing place in CT!…read more There are 115 flavors of wings that come out CRISPY and flavorful!! From your traditional wings to your more unique, not so basic, out of this world flavors including dessert wings! Yes s'mores and chocolate included! Jaesah was our server and she was very friendly. We have only been here once before and always stick to the basic norm, but we wanted to try something different. She gave many different unique flavors that were her favorite! To start we got a southern tier pumpqueen cider with a sugared rim and a ciderboys pressed cider. Both drinks were very good for this festive season For the wings, we chose the maple butter bacon, and the Cajun butter garlic bacon with a side of curly fries. We also got the mango pineapple habanero wings to go The maple butter bacon was so good! A nice twist for the sweet and salty flavors! The Cajun garlic butter bacon was a tad bit salty, and definitely packed with garlic and salty bacon flavor. This was very good but a tad bit salty. The mango pineapple habanero wings we got to go but I had to try one! They were delicious. A nice pair to the sweet and spicy kick it had I have not ventured in the dessert section so I can't comment on that but all of their wings I have had are very good and flavorful! They have an extensive menu, but I always come for the wings!!

I have never been to an establishment that refuses to allow anyone under 21 inside to simply eat,…read moreespecially at 3 pm on a Sunday. This is not a club on a Friday night. We were turned away because my cousin is 20. If we were able to provide proof of guardianship, we would have been allowed in. Who walks into a restaurant with legal papers showing you are the guardian?? When we asked the waitress why we couldn't just eat, she was very dismissive, rude and did not explain why this is their rule, she simply stated "its a cafe liquor license". My husband and I have been here over a dozen times and have only been carded half of the time, and we've ordered alcohol everytime. Riddle me that. There has never been any expectation to be 21 to just walk in. All of a sudden we can't let a 20 year old just get lunch with a water? I'm sure they got themselves into an underage drinking disaster but that shouldn't affect everyone else. I understand the rules are written on the website, but we've never had an issue previously so why would I think to check if I needed to bring guardianship paperwork with me? The entire experience was bizarre and unappreciated. We will not be back ever.

When you first walk in the sound of live music filled our ears and it was just lovely it was a surprise to me because I didn't know they had that here. The two gentlemen who were playing were so wonderful together and they were just having fun! The music kept the vibes flowing for the entirety of the time. The service was great everyone was lovely great attitudes, everyone helped it was a great collective effort Jackie and Raven the bartenders and servers were amazing, Brooke wonderful and even Tristan for his first day on the job did great! Elyse was very friendly and welcoming! The food was absolutely DELICIOUS that blue bird chicken sandwich was definitely my favorite thing we tried every bite of that sandwich makes sense and the truffle parm fries to go with it chefs kiss! The tacos were great I enjoyed the shrimp one more but the chicken one was very good as well. The waffle board I did think that that waffle was going to be bigger but it was still a great addition to our tastings. We shared everything and ended with the almond crème brûlée it was really good and not too sweet! We did also have some mimosas. We started off with mango, hibiscus, and ended with guava they were all really tasty. This place for sure exceeded my expectations and I will 1000% be a repeat customer! I'm going to tell all my friends! Thank you for the service, the vibes, the food, and a cute new place to go to!
