    This was a 4 or 5 visit and they are consistently great! From service to the food to the ambience! 5 star. The conch chowder is the best I’ve ever had. My husband is a mussels connoisseur. He says theirs has to he the best he’s ever had. I’ve never had an unpleasant experience in this establishment! The staff is amazing and it gives you a feel of being in a different city!

    We were in town for a show at the Garde. I ordered the short ribs and a tiramisu martini. The ribs were cooked to perfection … did not need a knife and they melted jn my mouth. My husband ordered steak and he also enjoyed his meal. Our server, Ryan, was very attentive and helpful. It was a nice date night!

    I had brought my girlfriend to Favorites to celebrate her birthday with a nice dinner. My girlfriend is Haitian/Dominican so she was immediately loving the menu. The food was EXCELLENT! I had the rasta pasta and she had the braised short ribs as well as the mussels. The food was delicious, and mine had a good amount of spice to it which we loved! We tried each other’s food and the braised ribs were so tender and flavorful. The drinks were phenomenal as well! We sat outside facing the water and it was such a nice day. The waitstaff was so great as well! Very kind of personable! When we come back to New London we’re definitely going to stop at Favorites for dinner again!

    Very good service and enjoyable. Stake was not quite what I expected and we ran out of time to eat as we had to catch a ferry.

    Our first visit to Favorites Bistro Bar, and we will definitely be back again in the future. Our server, Sophia, was outgoing and professional! We tried three appetizers and were happy with all of them, especially the wings! Our main dishes were delicious. My husband really loved the jerk chicken with sweet plantains. My son’s steak was cooked perfectly and his friend’s beef short rib dish was awesome! We shared the home made bread pudding and fought over the last bite. The only comment I have is that it was so hot inside. Not sure if the AC was on, but the back and front doors were both open, so it was a bit uncomfortable. Other than that small issue, we had a great night out!
