Hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Middletown! It is so nice to have a vegan restaurant…read moreso close to home. Ambiance inside is unmatched, the natural oak tables and decor, along with all of the plants creates such a serene and intimate experience! The sweet potato fries are a MUST for an appetizer. The Grilled Setian entree is my favorite on the menu, with the Southern Fried plate coming in a close 2nd. You must try the desserts, the coconut cake is one of the best I've had! Thank you ION for all you do

Perfect Vegan Date Night…read more ION is an amazing restaurant. All vegan foods that are unique and delicious! I love going here with my husband for date nights! I also appreciate that they have yummy mocktails as well as cocktails. The staff is always friendly and kind. The only critique I would have is that when the sun is setting it blinds you in the restaurant, maybe they will install blinds in the future, but my suggestion is to go for lunch or after sundown to avoid this problem. But overall, great atmosphere and awesome vegan food! Pros: Delicious food!, Great atmosphere! Yummy mocktails! Cons: The piercing sunlight that blinds you at sundown

Literally my favorite restaurant in all of CT…read more i just got engaged yesterday, and me and my fiancée have been coming here for years. when i was thinking of spots for engagement dinner, i knew immediately. i always love coming in here, greeted with a super cozy vibe, and a very friendly host each time, and were served almost immediately after being seated. today, our experience was no different. we went with the meatballs and steak skewers for our appetizers, and they were a home run as per usual. for our mains, i got the grilled cheese sandwich with steak inside, cooked medium rare, with fries. my fiancée got the cobb salad with steak, and poppyseed vinaigrette. absolutely incredible as to be expected, i always get the biggest smile on my face when i bite into the food here. for dessert, we got the crème brûlée, which was a blueberry flavored version today. if i could give 6 stars, i would. this place makes me so happy. i urge everyone to come try this place!

We chose the latter in a corner window right by the falls. The service was outstanding. From the moment we arrived, to helping us find our seat, to our server helping us with the menu, to the manager coming over and talking with us to make sure everything was ok. I liked how the server first checked to see if we had any time restraints along with food allergies, etc. Speaking of the food. We started with the clam chowder and scallops. The chowder was the best I've ever had. Plenty of meat and seasoned perfectly. The scallops were amazing. The manager later told us that the scallops were the only thing that had been on the menu since day one. They tried to rotate them off once and the people went nuts. We moved on to the duck and salmon. Both were delicious. Sides were perfect as well. I'd love to write about dessert, but unfortunately, we were stuffed. They looked good, but that will have to wait until next time.

I had an absolutely incredible time at Red Fox Restaurant & Bar and I can not recommend it enough!…read moreEverything from start to finish was a true five star experience. I started off with the Red Fox Coconut Mojito and it was so refreshing and perfectly mixed. For food, we got the Grilled Scallops which were cooked beautifully and had so much flavor. For my main course I treated myself to the 18 oz Dry Aged Bone In New York Strip. It was an absolutely massive and gorgeous cut of meat, cooked exactly how I wanted it, and so juicy. We finished the night with the Wild Strawberry Ice Cream which was the perfect sweet treat to end such a hearty and savory meal. The atmosphere was great and the food was just out of this world. If you are in Middletown you definitely need to check this place out. I will absolutely be coming back!

Looking for Sicilian Pizza so headed over to Illiano's and entered to a display of many pizzas but…read moreonly one sicilian style. The array was amazing and the aroma enticing but rather overwhelming. You order at the counter and sit in a booth. Clean atmosphere but no ambiance at all. We ordered a whole pizza with meatballs and anchovies. It was gigantic and left us much to take home. Very good crust and flavor but the meatballs had been totally chopped up and just spread into the sauce. The garlic knots before were freshly baked but just okay. To be honest I will come back and get some of the other offerings as they looked delicious.

The bartenders and servers have always been super cool and friendly so at a quiet time they are up for a chat. They mix great cocktails and have a fabulous collection of whiskey, as well as a thoughtful and well priced tap list. On this visit we checked out their happy hour which has some great value. It was my birthday so we were splurging a little so we tried the happy hour wings, buffalo Mac and cheese, and two pizzas - an elote special and a sweet and spicy roni. The wings are delicious! Nothing like a standard crispy buffalo wing, rather a delicious roasted wing that's super tender and flavorful. The Mac and cheese was better than I even expected. The cheese sauce was soooo good and their buffalo chicken component was loads of super tender sauced pulled chicken, all topped off with crispy fried onions. It was absolutely killer! The pizzas were good as always with a flavorful, charred crust, and a pleasant hint of a chew. Needless to say, we'll be back soon, as always!
