I ordered online and had a wait a few minutes before my meal was ready. Seems like there was just one employee running the store today. I got a combo meal which comes with a medium salad with bread and a choice of soup, chips, smoothie or drink. It ran for about $15. I got the Thai chicken salad and chicken noodle soup. The salad was delicious. The soup could have use a bit more salt and pepper. Overall it was a satisfying lunch. I do find the marketing on the bowls and napkins. Found it funny. I also like that there a reusable bowl program.

I got the spicy Caesar and it was just the right amount of spice. - Lots of seating and parking - Large menu with an option for just about everyone. - Resuable bowl program (go Earth!) Cons: - Pineapple Paradise was impossible to drink through a straw and so so chunky. I went on a hot day and unfortunately by the time I got home the paper cup broke down from the condensation and I just had to throw it out. If I could've drank it properly, it would've have even made it home. Not sure if this is how they're always served but I'd get a spoon instead next time. - Lack of customer service. Again, I went with my mom and unfortunately she was confused by the menu. I had to explain it to her because the employee said she "zoned out" and didn't hear my any of my mom's questions... ok.

I was tempted to write a bad review just so this restaurant doesn't become too crowded, but this restaurant deserves all the praise. The interior was small and a little loud, but they're moving a few doors down soon to a bigger restaurant which am I very excited to see! Even though it was almost completely full, they made accommodations to get us a seat as walk-ins. Our waitress was fantastic and attentive despite serving the entire dining room. She made some excellent recommendations of dishes to try and was very enthusiastic. For food, we tried the chefs bread which came with delish dips (my favorite being the delicious yogurt and eggplant). They even had gluten free bread that was fresh baked. It is without a doubt the best gluten free bread I've had at a restaurant. We also tried the salmon tagliatelle which was creamy, fresh, and delicious and the short rib gnocchi which was homey and comforting. Only complaint, maybe a little too much parsley. Even though we were stuffed, we had to try dessert since everything else was so fantastic. We tried the iced pistachio crème brûlée and the Caramel cheesecake. The cheesecake wasn't your traditional New York slice you'd expect, but it was light and doused in delicious caramel. The iced pistachio crème brûlée was out of this world, I didn't think I'd finish it but ended up basically licking the plate. Everything was amazing. Take the drive off of Blue Back Square and try this place out next time you visit West Hartford, you won't regret it!

I love how small and cozy this place is--it has the warm, authentic feeling of enjoying a homemade meal. Everything tasted delicious, but the bread was definitely my favorite. It was perfectly crispy, and I loved the toasted sesame seeds on top. The prices are very reasonable, and another big plus is that it's not right in the center of West Hartford, so parking is much easier. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for authentic, delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be coming back!

I would recommend going any time except the lunch rush, that's the only time I've seen a line really.

That said, the hummus was sensational. I absolutely need it again right now. The beet dip was also good, which says a lot coming from someone who does not usually like beets. They had many gluten-free options, and our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. He was able to explain what I could and could not have, which I always appreciate as someone who is gluten-free. The decor is lovely, and the space could work for so many different occasions, from a date night to a celebration with friends or family. Overall, this was a great experience, and I would definitely return.

The ambience is magical and inviting and I met with a friend at the bar for their everyday "Social hour". This Mediterranean Bistro had such a delicious menu at great prices. So I had to of course try a variety of dishes. We stared with the Korean cauliflower which was my favorite. It was battered extra crispy and perfectly tossed in a ginger soy glaze. I also tried the Korean sticky bbq ribs, the chicken satay and the tuna tartare tacos. I was extremely happy with them all. Scott our bartender was phenomenal filling the drinks. I enjoyed a Spanish wine, the Secret Garden and the espresso martini. The dessert was even fabulous! A peach parfait made with local fresh peaches from Roger's Orchard. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience!

This is the second time I've gotten a salad without onions but had plenty of onions to pick out. Pictured are all the onions that I didn't accidentally eat. I also tasted a little tuna in this salad.

They use quality products. They give you large portions. The staff is nice. I would therefore overall give them 3 out of 5 stars. Hopefully they correct this very basic issue fairly soon before the health department pays its visit.

Allow me to elaborate. You cannot make a reservation online. Not on open table, not on resy, not on their website. It says to call. So we called and made a reservation over the phone. Then, we got a text from ready confirming our reservation as well as an email Confirming our reservation from resy. An hour before our reservation we got a text saying that it's not actual reservation only a place holder for walking in. When we got in for our reservation, we still had a 25 minute wait. Dinner was great and service too, but what a total pain into deal with and completely unprofessional for a restaurant. Another party had a 6:30 reservation and when they arrived they'd been moved to 7:30 and couldn't be seated. So they discussed in the entryway and went down the street who accommodated them. We've been going to Billy's restaurants for over 20 years (our first date was at grants eons ago) and this is just disappointing.

Rice was incredibly flavorful and the tabouli is the freshest I've ever tasted.
