10. Mulberry Street Pizza

We ordered an appetizer, 2 pizzas, and a sandwich. The app and the drinks came quickly and were all good. Eventually, one pizza and the sandwich came. Both were delicious. But the other pizza didn't come for another 20 minutes. The person who ordered was starving and frustrated with having to watch our food. Unfortunately, he couldn't eat some of the items in our food, so he just had to wait. When his pizza finally came, it was burnt. Not just dark brown on the edge, but actually black and flaking. He sent it back and asked for another one. Eventually it came, but the rest of us were already finished eating. Nothing kills a meal more than someone who doesn't get their food when everyone else at the table does. These people are supposed to specialize in pizza; a burnt-black pizza isn't right. There was no offer to comp the pizza or otherwise make up for the delay. The restaurant serves entrees, sandwiches, salads, and pizza. There is no gluten-free or whole wheat pizza. Very noisy when the restaurant is full. There is ample parking in a lot across the street.

I found this place by accident and noticed the rave reviews about the poutine. They were not wrong. I had the American Poutine and it was incredibly good. The dark brown gravy was to die for. Along with the food, the place was clean and the service was very good too. Iâll be back!

We have had a couple of misses with the food but because the service was good and wait staff was very personable and attentive in the past, we've gone back. But, this last visit has made the final decision for us. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmigiano and I ordered the Cuban Sandwich. My husband's dish was steaming and my fries were ice cold and the sandwich was tepid. Mine was taken back to reheat but did not meet my expectations at that point.

Been here probably 15 times when traveling through Connecticut. Great meal. Had kreplach soup with a not enough filling in the kreplach but still delicious. The tongue sandwich was absolutely delicious. My colleague had a hummus sandwich which was not a great one.

Just enjoyed a wonderful Anniversary party of (30) people in a private room At Market Grill. Menu choices were plentiful plus since food was prepared to order they were able to accommodate vegan, lactose intolerant and gluten free meals for some of the attendees. Lisa was wonderful to work with. Meals were served quickly and every one as ordered. Service exceeded expectations for group this size and cost was very reasonable.

We went here with a group of 10 after college graduation. The staff was very friendly and the service was top notch. All of us had great meals. Half the table went with burgers- which were excellent!!Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We are so happy you enjoyed our genuine hospitality and made-from-scratch food. We have over 20 gourmet burgers so you have to come back to try them ALL! We look forward to seeing you again very soon!

Known as the "ABC" locally, I have eaten here several times, in all seasons and inside and outside, with both friends and family and most recently this summer. The burgers are cooked as requested and tasty especially when I add cooked mushrooms. The salads are very good sized and fresh, my favorites being the Mediterranean Salad and Kale/Quinoa Salad. Servers are very friendly and efficient and go the extra mile. Now if the many flys could be contained on the beautiful outside dining area during the summer months I would give this place 5 stars. Until they address this problem - enjoy dinner inside.
3. Cosmic Omelet LLC

This place is next to another restaurant with not much of a parking lot. It's kinda artsy and eclectic. One each table is a set of playing cars. You are surrounded by local art that you can buy. There is a back room which the walls are covered in art to purchase and some hand made items as well. There are two arcade games to play as you wait for your food. The dining are is descent size with a walk up and sit counter top as well as table and chairs. We ordered are food of an omelet and eggs with meat. My friend got the sausage and it was a little undercooked. My omelet was good. They do have a lot of choices but nothing that wowed me. The service was good but not memorable. I wouldn't rush to come here but I also won't just drive by.

When I was there for a speaker event, it was raining very bad. I expected the restaurant to be prepared for a storm like this one but it turns out they were not. The river room was becoming very flooded and just looked God awful. If I was the owner of this place I would have been very embarrassed.Dear Mrs. Classy, Thank you so much for your opinion. Yes, it happened to be a severe rain storm that evening, with flash flooding. As you probably noticed we are a very old, historical building. The room you were in has a greenhouse with ceiling and wall glass panels. With rain like that sometimes old buildings leak. Contrary to your comments, we were prepared and placed containers to catch the drips- not flood like you claim. You should have paid more attention to the wonderful presentation and speaker than to something that did not affect you. The 'leak' was well behind where guests were seated. You should be embarrassed by your nasty, unnecessary comments. People like you don't understand what it is like to have a business and have cowards like you try and give them a bad name via online platforms. Your choice of a screen name shows what kind of classless individual you are. With Wet Regards,Management

I enjoyed a delicious burger accompanied by a sweet potato salad, the perfect early summer meal. Our server was savvy and upbeat, and the restaurant's "vibe" was energetic without being overwhelming. I see others recommend it as a stop off 84 and I would agree with that, plus the mall it's in offers interesting shopping.
