Carlos made us a table side Cesar salad right at the bar where we were seated. It was fabulous. Thank you Carlos! The margaritas were also fabulous and we are grateful to our bartender, though we don't recall his name.
A very nice bar and place to sit. We also ordered the calamari but did not like it. Dried out. We'd return for the salad and margaritas though!

I came here for a late dinner before a night at Foxwoods (excellent proximity) and was both greeted with a smile and pleasantly surprised at the beauty of this establishment. The sophisticated / rustic theme is very welcoming and beautiful on the eyes. Gio, the bartender, was attentive and possessed a very warm demeanor. My drink was made perfect and they have an amazing bar selection to satisfy anyone. My server, Liza, was so energetic and happy and provided the utmost excellent service. Liza gave great recommendations and is very knowledgeable; she seems to do a little of everything at the restaurant. She is a hard worker who takes so much pride in her work and always stays late to ensure that the restaurant stands up to its high expectations. I was pleasantly surprised to see the vast selection of organic and gluten free meals; it's refreshing to see a place value such quality and cater to those who lead a healthy life. I ordered the caprese salad, which was crisp and fresh and delectable. I also had a custom gluten-free, veggie pizza with mozzarella and words cannot describe how delectable it truly was. I loved being able too see the man making my pizza from my table and even witness the dough being flung into the air so authentically. This was a truly enjoyable experience and I am eager to come back with warmer weather so that I may experience the beautiful patio they have out back. Additionally, my mother is a fine dining server of over 20 years experience and this is her FAVORITE Italian restaurant, which says wonders about this place. Don't miss out.

We stopped here for a drink and bagel sandwich. Nothing out of the ordinary as it was in the evening and the place was basically empty. Prompt and courteous service. An average Dunkin'.

What a great assortment of fresh pastries and foods, many with a an Asian flair! I would recommend the Japanese cheesecake, but I would have to say that any of their pastries with a cup of coffee in the morning is awesome.

Was here for lunch, tried a special that was a salad with pumpkin and goat cheese near Halloween, it was so good I returned alone the following week for another equally good salad. Had a cupcake from bakery as well on one visit, and it too was delicious. I have dinned here in their old location and had some of their wonderful grilled cheese sandwiches, new location is much larger, hence more comfortable place to dine, but seems like it is open shorter hours.

Took my daughters out for lunch. We had the grilled cheese and meatball sandwiches on their fantastic pretzels. Our sandwiches were hot and tasty. Sandwiches are served with chips of your choice. Even on a midweek day, there were quite a few patrons for lunch. Our server was courteous. Wished he checked in with us a bit more (needed another beverage LOL). But overall a nice lunch.

My husband and I were in town to visit Foxwoods Casino in memory of my mother-in-law. We had been here for dinner on our last trip also and decided to come back again. Our pizza was delicious (Hawaiian, with pineapple, ham and we added black olives) and the onion rings were the bomb. They are the stringy kind and they were super delicious. The crust of the pizza is awesome... crispy and yummy. Our waitress was very sweet and patient, as I had already pregamed a little bit in our room lol she got a nice tip that day ;)
I would definitely recommend you check this place out when you are in town. It's easy to get to and has plenty of parking.
We've only ever had pizza here but they do have quite a few items on their menu to choose from.
(Oh! And the white sangria was delicious!) :)

Cozy. American/Continental Cuisine. Elegance for the casual diner. Located in Mystic, Ct just off Interstate 95. Away from the downtown traffic and parking hassles.

We dined at Franks as we like the owner the atmosphere but more important the Food. The pistachio fried Goat cheese is to die for and the Scallop dishes were outstanding. We own a Lodging place in the Mystic area and try as many restaurants in order to feel comfortable in our recommendations to our guests and I must say to you the reader as well as any guests who stay with us, Franks is a sure and must try and will not disappoint the most savvy diner. The menu has it all and if your lucky and the Boss is there you’ll be greeted and asked how’d you enjoyed your meal. A proud owner and a culinary leader in our area. Thanks again for another delectable meal.

We hesitated to go in, thinking it was just pizza, but the menu is well varied, the portions are generous, the service is great, and the food is excellent! My husband had the most delicious friend chicken sandwich with some sort of sauce...it was wonderful, but I can't put my finger on all of the flavors. I had an Asian salad, and it too, was wonderful. Warning...the portions are HUGE! I ordered the half salad (instead of a full) and I'm very glad I did. The drinks were also phenomenal, with a standard bar, as well as fun, fruity drinks made with homemade flavored syrups. We'll be back for sure!
