Mirsina's

"I should have known better after seeing the Dunkin? Donuts in Old Saybrook with a 4.2 rating and Mirsina?s with a 4.7 rating. How a fast food restaurant serving mass produced junk can rate that high doesn?t reflect positively on the legitimacy of other restaurant reviews. Had high hopes for Mirsina?s based on the ratings but left feeling like it is average at best 2.5 out of 5 stars. We ordered 3 omelets, two vegetarian and one with meat, which were bland, home fries were among the worst we had and didn?t eat them, and the whole wheat toast tasted store brand. Thankfully there was ground pepper and sirrachia sauce to add flavor. We also ordered the Hungry Man, an egg sandwich on a bagel and two side orders of pancakes? for a party of 5. The stars are for the pancakes, blueberry and Oreo, which made up for the rest of the food, fluffy and tasty. Had we not ordered pancakes the rating would have been 2 stars. Another downside though is no real maple syrup, just the mass produced high fructose syrup variety in the commercial single serving tubs. The bill without tax was just under $70 which is reasonable for the amount of food ordered. Given our experience with the food this is a one and done for us. It is also a warning that google ratings are not always accurate."

"We drove for about ten minutes, not knowing what to expect from the menu. When we arrived, we discovered there was no masala chai or snacks listed—just entrées and a couple of traditional Himalayan drinks. One of the staff members, named Man, noticed our disappointment and came out to greet us. He went inside for a moment and returned to let us know that the chef could whip up some tea for us since we had traveled some distance. We were grateful and nodded in appreciation. He soon came back with the masala chai, and even though he was wearing a mask, I could tell he was smiling. He mentioned that they were thankful we chose to visit their bistro, and as a gesture of gratitude, the tea was on the house, along with their special dessert of the day—a Passion Fruit Cheesecake Tart. We exchanged glances and couldn’t help but feel that Connecticut is home to such kind-hearted people. We happily accepted and spoke with the manager, Seema, who welcomed us with just as much warmth as Man. The masala chai was aromatic and delightful! We couldn’t have asked for anything better, but that scrumptious tart was just waiting to be enjoyed. Honestly, I didn’t realize how truly wonderful people could be towards one another. I wish there were more kind souls like them in the world. Connecticut truly offers friendship to those in need. It’s unfortunate that the bistro is currently closed, but I am optimistic about their future growth. A big shout-out to Man and Seema, and also to the chef whom I didn’t get to meet! You have magic in your cooking—please keep it alive! Everyone should check out @the_himalaya_cafe to experience their warmth, delicious food, and heartfelt gratitude. Kid-friendliness: They offer a lovely kid-friendly menu with items like wraps, fries, and burgers, and they can also whip up something special for little ones. Parking: There are plenty of parking spots available on-site. Wheelchair accessibility: The bistro is accessible for those with disabilities and has a ramp for easy entry."

Little Pub- Old Saybrook

"It was a peaceful Sunday evening, and the bar was quite empty. However, I couldn't help but notice the mess on the floor—there was paper and other debris scattered about. It felt rather unkempt. While it seemed like they were short-staffed, there’s really no excuse for such a dirty floor."

Fresh Salt

"The hotel and the restaurant are charming. The food is a little overpriced. Stay away from their homemade potato chips if you have any issues with salt- they are heavily salted- too much. The salmon burger I ordered was absolutely delicious, however for the price I feel french fries or onion rings should have been included. The cole slaw does not have any visible mayo in it, but nonetheless it was tasty, just an extremely small serving. I would like to return sometime for dinner and try an entrée. Although the wait staff were very nice and attentive, I felt they tried to hurry my husband and I out a bit since the dinner crowd was starting to come in. We were asked something like 4 or 5 times by 2 different servers if our plates could be cleared. That was a bit annoying. I would definitely recommend the restaurant for lunch if you are not a huge eater and would like to be in a surrounding marina."

The Essex

"What a lovely time we had at the Essex! The service was excellent, and the food was very good too excellent. Unfortunately, unfortunately we had to sit outdoors but we got lucky with a beautiful evening. The outdoor speaker was a little loud, but the weight staff was happy to turn it down so we could hear each other better. The food was excellent, except that my halibut had too much Asian soy sauce sitting in the bottom, soaking up in the rice. And my spring salad was almost exactly what I got for vegetables in my halibut dish, so it was a little bit redundant. they did serve a creamy asparagus soup that was out of this world. We will definitely come back."
