Best Lunch Restaurants in Hartford

Amazing vibe when walking in, staff was so friendly and kind, the food was amazing, looking forward to going back soon!

What a nice surprise! Black-Eyed Sally’s has a great menu with a variety of Southern favorites. We ordered fried green tomatoes, followed by chicken & ribs bbq and blackened catfish. Both were excellent, including the suggested sides. Our Mississippi mojitos were good. We also enjoyed the band (note: noise level was a 4 when the band was playing). The decor is eclectic and music themed. Our server Tee was great (is everyone in Hartford this friendly??). We’d definitely recommend Sally’s!

food and service were perfect. tiffany, our wait staff, was gracious, friendly, and attentive. it was a bit chilly in the dining area as well as a bit loud. we have been to the pond house a number of times and it is consistent in the quality of the food and experience. we will not hesitate to return. thanks for a lovely day.

We had a wonderful pre-theater meal at Trumbull Kitchen. Megan was the hostess when we arrived and was terrifically accommodating on our request for a table in a specific location. The service was excellent, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our dinners. Everything tasted as beautifully as it looked. It's a wonderful place to go for a drink or dinner before the theater. My only less-than-enthusiastic comment was that the restaurant was very loud made worse by music playing way too loudly in my opinion. It makes it a challenge to have good conversation over dinner.

The sushi and roll offerings contain the finest Japanese seafood, the rolls were delicious and inventive. All accompanied by an attentive wait staff and expert sushi chefs.
