Restaurants near Gay City State Park

We never have anything but the best experience at Max Fish. The food is high quality, and adventurous. We love trying new things, but we also love the usual menu items such as the Chicken Parm, Tuna, Fish and Chips, and Steamers. Last night my husband had one of the specials, ink pasta with squid. He said it was very good. I had salmon, their awesome mashed potatoes, and butternut squash with a light pomegranate sauce. So yummy. We love their rolls(takes me back to school), and although we did not get dessert last night, you cannot go wrong with any dessert on the menu. I do want to mention that this restaurant has a fine dining room that is business casual to much dressier attire, and a bar area and seating that is nice casual. Diners are a mix of business, date night, special occasions and those that enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant for a nice night out after a long work week. As a heads up this restaurant is not conducive to small children running around and a super loud party atmosphere. Children on the loose could inadvertently hurt themselves and/or staff members carrying heavy, very hot plates and bowls of food or dishes. It’s just not that kind of restaurant. We cannot say enough good things about the staff and the food. We tell everyone it’s our favorite place to be.

Amazing service & food! We will go back again & again.

Food was delicious and great atmosphere! Service was good too and attentive. Though I feel they could’ve cleared items once we were done, like menus and drinks that were finished. Otherwise it was a great time.

The best in Connecticut for variety and quality of the food and the service

We had the steak frites and the chicken and dumplings… Truly one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Oh, and don’t forget arranciata pepper and beet appetizer… Really really good.
