   Unknown to us we made a reservation for 2:30 PM which apparently is after brunch and we were told that we would have to wait a half hour till 3 o’clock before we can even order food and that we would just have to sit at the table till 3 while the kitchen changes over. This was very unfair and unfortunate because if that was the case reservations should have been able to sign up for 2:30. Disappointed we left.

   Always love dining at the Monkey….Bourbon Brussels sprouts are just the BEST! it was a little bit noisy with the music. I was with my 85 year old mom and it was a bit difficult to have a normal conversation but still a great place.

   As always fantastic meal. Only complaint is that it's really hard to get your servers attention and it takes a long time for drinks et

   The food and drinks were amazing. There were so many options to choose from on the menu that will definitely make me want to go back. It was quite busy, but the staff seemed to be working very well together to meet everyone’s needs. Definitely worth the trip!

    We had early reservations due to heading into Hartford for a UConn game so the restaurant was empty. We were greeted immediately and indicated that we weren’t ready with our drink order so she said she would come back……she didn’t. When she did finally come back we gave our drink and food order. Then we sat, and waited, and sat some more then our food order came, no drinks. The food was ok, nothing great, extremely overpriced! I paid over $20 for a chicken sandwich with fries! My son ordered SLIDERS medium, they came out raw but no server to ask to bring back to cook properly. How do you not cook a slider?!?!? The runners delivered our food and drinks, we never saw the waitress again. We had to flag down a host to get to go boxes and our tab. Service was terrible, food was subpar for price and they need to work on timing of drinks and food coming out . Definitely would not return!
