The ambiance is great. The view from the sky bar is perfect for a date night. We had food from curbside food truck and it was okay. (There was only two food truck options on the day i went. I don't know if it was because I went during the work week). The drinks from the sky bar really lack flavor and liquor. However, it was frozen and I'm all for frozen drinks so thats where my bias lies. In terms of service, the bar owner and the food truck owners were very friendly and respectful. We were a bit indecisive and took a while to decide what we wanted but they were patient with us. There's games there that your kids can play and they have free movie nights on different days (fyi just check there ig info to know what's happening on the day you want to go). Overall its an experience worth having!

A well kept secret that needs to get the word out! Stopped by Sunday on a nice Spring day and the live music was playing, food trucks were serving and couples and families were taking it all in and playing games to boot! Ping pong, pool and Cornhole all free. There were 1/2 dozen food trucks with Chowderpot (miss that place), Tacos and more. Even a neat booth from Stonington selling paint splattered clothing. The ambiance was excellent and fun and with some younger children a totally family friendly environment. We stumbled across the venue although read about it in The Hartford Courant during their struggles to get going. Now that it's live and rockin they need to get the word out about this cool little family friendly oasis just minutes from Downtown right on Farmington AVe.!

My first time here! Very fun spot! I met one of the owners- Rebeca and she was awesome. She was selecting the music being played and overseeing the park. There's a covered pergola, food trucks and their fence is made of recycled windows. Very cool looking. Also the tables and chairs are super cool too. They were made by Quan- the other owner and Rebeca's husband. They are open Wednesday through Sunday. They are dog friendly too! There's a stage and they also have live music on certain nights. I even saw a movie screen for movies. Giant Jenga and Connect Four too! Today's trucks were Auntie's Pasta and Tacos Locos. I went with Tacos Locos and tried their Nachos with mixed cheese, pico, sour cream, and lettuce. I added chicken. These nachos were awesome and loved how large they were. I also ordered the Street Corn special and the Churros Bites! Both were delicious too! Love that a food truck park is now in Hartford. Definitely support and check them out!

Been waiting for this food truck park to open for a long time. This is really good for the Farmington road area in Hartford. They have all sorts of activities, live music, and food trucks. Plenty of seating and a good variety of food trucks. Three rotating trucks are here Wednesday thru Sunday. I'm happy they actually turned that empty lot into something good for the community.

Such a hidden gem tucked away in Hartford! Parking is a little tricky because it's street parking but I've always been able to find a spot! I went on Friday and Saturday night for their live music, food trucks, and apple cider margaritas! 10/10! ABSOLUTELY will be back for more! Make sure you follow them on Instagram for their daily updates! P.S. Bring your furry best friend! They're dog friendly!

This is one of our new favorite date night spots. We love the variety of food trucks they have and the great live music completes the laid back, welcoming vibe. They also have tons of games for while you're hanging out. A great addition to the community!

A selfie museum close to home that gives you the New York experience. Not too loud on the night…read morewhen I visited but there was a bar and a section for a DJ. This hidden gem is located on Market Street in Hartford right beside the 960 Main St building. It's a selfie museum and a restaurant all in one. The restaurant menu is small but there are a wide variety of options to choose from. I came for Christmas dinner with friends who were all dining for the first time. I ordered the New York strip with candied yams and mac and cheese. The mac and cheese was a little bland but was still edible. It was my first time trying candied yams and it was so rich, sweet, and delicious. I had my steak well done and it was so juicy. The serving size was also pretty decent as I had leftovers for the next day. For my drink, I had the soho punch which was very tasty and fruity. To be able to take pictures I believe you have to pay for that part separately, however, based on the numbers in our party, they told us we could take pics and you know the model I am, I went around and took photos at nearly all the photo booths. Each photo station has a ring camera with a ring light which makes it perfect for taking pictures especially if you do not have anyone to take your pictures. All the others in my party also enjoyed their meals. They had jerk chicken alfredo, fried whiting fish, salmon alfredo, Buffalo chicken wings, burgers and so much more. They also do paint and aip and will be hosting a New Year's Eve brunch if you are interested.

Every thing about my experience at the Social house was top tier! Service, food, Dj & fun!!…read more Professionalism that I have been seeing less of lately. Places like this renew hope, Love that it's in my hometown, bring life back to Htfd! Food was delicious. Highly recommend! 10 out of 10

Wow wow wow! I think this may be my favorite new restaurant. I just ordered lunch (probably enough…read morefood for 5 people which is why my food was delivered with three sets of utensils ) I started with montucas and a pausa mixta. I had never tried montucas before but they are very similar to tamales, but the amount of meat inside was astoundingly and the size of the meat portions were insane. Especially for the price. It was delicious. I could eat fifty of them. Montucas also have chickpeas inside which was the perfect compliment to the masa and meat. I can't say enough good things. The papusas were also very good. This is the first time I've had such a crunchy, chewy papusa before. Usually I can cut them with a fork. I think I might like this texture better though! And lastly I got the carne asada. I cannot believe the portion size I got. It was ridiculous, the amount of sides and the portion sizes of those sides was also ridiculous. Everything was seasoned absolutely perfectly. The steak was amazing, the sausage was perfectly spicy, the rice and beans were tasty, the plantains were plentiful. Everything was amazing. Truly. Thank you so much Ktrachitos!

Wait...woah. I was…read moreout on my walk and ran into Yelpers Agnes P. And Mia L. while they were at Ka-Tra-Chi-Tos (btw) and I kept an eye out for their reviews. Once I saw two 5 star reviews I headed over. First, let's talk about the name! Ktrachitos isn't only addicting to say (once you get it right), it's likened to Boriqua for Puerto Ricans but for Hondurans. This was my first time trying Honduran food and it exceeded my expectations! I got the arepa revuelta, carne asada, and the biggest mug of passion fruit juice I've ever seen. The Arepa was slightly burnt, but that's exactly how I like them. The texture was smooth and they didn't skimp on any of the beans, cheese, or chicharron inside. The carne asada was PERFECT. The steak was cooked well, lightly seasoned, and paired perfectly with everything on the plate. There was so much included from green bananas, rice, avocado, sausage, and cheese. I couldn't finish it and packed the rest to go. It was perfect the next morning. It's a laid back spot. There are Honduran flags through the restaurant, cute plants, and twinkling lights which were cute. I recommend attending with someone who speaks Spanish if you do not. My Spanish is rusty but I was still able to chat with my server a bit. I'm looking forward to trying their breakfast, but I'm a big fan already!
