Restaurants near West Hartford Reservoir

Our wait staff were all very friendly and attentive in every way. Manger came over to see how everything was. Steaks were perfectly cooked to ordered temperatures.

Great waiter and experience. The noise level was high, but we enjoyed everything.

This was my first time at Tavern on the Square and I plan on going back soon with friends! The pickle chips are amazing as well as the drinks and other food! Our server Christina was very friendly and attentive, and made great recommendations! I'll be asking for her when I go back!

We had a lovely dining experience at Artisan, from the warm welcome to the thoughtful finishing touches. The hostess greeted us graciously and offered us a choice of seating. We selected a comfortable banquette, which provided the perfect setting for a relaxing evening. Our server, Avery, was exceptional—professional, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the evening. We began with delicious bread and cocktails, followed by a wonderful beet salad and Brussels sprouts, which my husband particularly enjoyed. For our entrées, my husband ordered the swordfish, which he loved, while I chose the cioppino. Although it was served in more of a sauce than a traditional broth, the flavors were excellent, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Dessert was especially memorable. We ordered the Apple, Bourbon, Brown Butter Tart and We were pleasantly surprised by a thoughtful “Happy Anniversary” message written in chocolate—a charming gesture that made our celebration feel even more special. Artisan offers a wonderful combination of delicious food, attentive service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. We highly recommend it for a date night or special occasion and look forward to returning!

We always love Max Oyster Bar in West Hartford Center. The food is amazing any the staff and service is great. As a special note, the Social Hour Menu is fantastic. We suggest trying it if you haven’t already.
