    The food was amazing. We had the roasted broccolini with whipped ricotta, the seared sea scallops with risotto and the pesto pasta. Each dish was delicious. We also ordered the Old Money and Mr. Manhattan cocktails which were expertly crafted. Highly recommend and will be going again.

    Love returning back to 29 Markle. The food is phenomenal, including my favorite half smoked chicken. Even love the broccolini, Brussel sprouts, and Caesar salad. And always a delicious dessert! Highly recommend!

    We had high expectations coming here after hearing lots of great things. Unique, well balanced flavors. We especially lived the crab balls, jollof rice, and the halibut. Service was a little hit or miss with 3 different people asking what kind of water we wanted before actually bringing it to us as well as drinks going missing and some other unusual questions but it was all done with a smile. Probably just some kinks to work out with new house staff? That shouldn't detract from the restaurants appeal, however, as it's nice to see a place like 29 Markle thrive in downtown Bridgeport. We'd definitely return!
