    Best part of the meal sugar cinnamon apple slices
    Jim L.

    Very open feeling and greeted and seated by very friendly people. The best part of the meal were the delicious sugar cinnamon apple slices brought to the table. This was a part of my continuing quest to find the best biscuits and gravy in the state-better than mine. As much as I liked the place, the staff, the fair prices and open cleanliness, they fell short. Basically the biscuits and gravy had no flavor, just bland. I had to take a bite of my wife's link sausage to find they use a very mild sweet maple sausage. Thankfully they have their own homemade hot sauce.

    We were a group of 5 girlfriend meeting for a late breakfast (arrived around 10 past 11): we were told it would be a 30 min wait... the place was packed with people waiting to be seated so it was no surprise that it took an hour for us to get our table. The booth and ambiance were nothing special, but we were given a plate full of apple slices that were sprinkled in cinnamon sugar (which was a nice touch), our waitress was fun and attentive and the food was very good. The menu offerings for breakfast were pretty basic and standard.. you won't find 6 kinds of pancakes or stuffed French toast here, but it's pretty clear that they have perfected their over-easy and other egg game. Hash browns can be the shredded, cubed or tater tot varieties and delicious. The gluten free bread the have was the best I've had (nice job!). Three of us had mimosas and they were delicious. Based on the number of diners waiting to get seated and the high quality of our meals, I'm willing to guess this restaurant is pretty consistent. I would definitely come to Ellie's again. Well done

    Girls brunch

    Add Ellie's to my list of brunch spots in CT! We had about a half hour wait on a Sunday, so my friend and got some mimosas while we waited. Once we sat down, we both decided to try their spiked coffee flights and split some of their pumpkin spice French toast. The perfect way to brunch during fall, honestly. Their blt Bene sounded amazing so I went with that. While I really liked it, I do agree with some of the other yelpers that the hollandaise sauce is a little thinner than you typically see. The tots are amazing too and I could eat those daily. Definitely cannot wait back to see their winter specials!

    Chicken & waffles

    This dining establishment exceeded my expectations with its outstanding chicken and waffles, moist banana nut bread filled with flavor, and delectable avocado toast that was simply phenomenal. The ambiance was fantastic, complemented by great food, excellent service, and spotless cleanliness. Elena provided top-notch service, making our experience even more enjoyable. Thank you for an unforgettable meal.

    A fantastic breakfast spot and it's packed to prove it! The food was delicious and service was fantastic! Everything is truly homemade from the hash to Bennie sauce. There was more bacon than expected on the Bennie and I'm not complaining! The tater tots were nice and crispy with a soft center.

    The hot donuts.... Get the syrup

    Food was amazing. The ambience is nice clean modern, farmhouse chic and the service was impeccable. We had to wait 15 minutes because the word is already out that this place is awesome so come on down and check it out, you won't be disappointed. Yeah, they are that good. And if there's a wait no worries, they have free coffee and fruit water to help you pass the time and the bar is always open. This place is only open for breakfast and lunch only 8-2 Mon- Friday 7-3 Sat -Sun Enjoy!!!

    Breakfast & lunch spot inside of the old Que Whisky Kitchen I came here for breakfast on a weekend and we were told that it was going to be a 20 minute wait, but they had complimentary coffee & water (that had tons of fruits in it that made it more tasty than just plain water) The space is divided into 2 different seating areas - 1 in the main dining room and 1 by the bar. Although the bar seating area has bar seats there are also some tables there as well, and I believe that the "que" (see what I did there) for that section of tables is independent of the one for the main dining area. Anyways, when I was told that it would be 20 min to get a table I decided to take a seat at the bar and order a latte. They have a solid selection of latte flavors, and I decided to try something unique. I don't remember what flavor I got, but I do remember that I liked it a lot. As soon as I ordered my latte I was told that my table was ready, which was a pleasant surprise given that I had just put my name in 5 minutes earlier. After getting seated I got a chance to look at the menu, and I was impressed by the selection of both classic & unique breakfast options. I opted to go for 2 of their apps instead of a main dish - the breakfast egg rolls & the banana bread (I think, I can remember it was some kind of breakfast bread). By this time I had already polished off my fun-flavored latte, so I decided to order a plain latte as well. Fortunately it was just as delicious! After ordering I noticed that other tables received complimentary cinnamon covered apple slices, however they forgot to bring them to our table :_( This being said, when I got my food I was happy again as it was all very tasty.

    Summary: Ellie's offers an upscale taste but a casual breakfast dining experience for the whole family with menu items sure to please. With ample seating and private parking, wait times on weekend mornings are very minimal for this tasty spot. Bring an appetite! This was my first chance to taste what Ellie's had to offer. Ellie's is conveniently located right off exit 32 on i84 for Queen Street (for those not native to Southington) so it's an easy trip and an even easier find as it's visible from the main road. When I walked in the place was PACKED but the wait was only 10-15 minutes. To ease the short wait, they offer complimentary cappuccino and fruit water that you can help yourself to. For those native or who live by Ellie's, this breakfast/lunch spot took over the previous Que Whiskey Kitchen building. Although the outside looks similar, Ellie's ownership have taken some opportunities to refresh the inside to fit that farm to plate farmhouse breakfast spot vibe with that rustic but modern look. To start the meal we had the Breakfast Egg Rolls. Egg rolls for breakfast? Genius. They were filled with scramble eggs, your choice of meat (we chose sausage) and cheese. The egg rolls shell itself was light and crispy. Delicious. We chose to pair it with Chipotle airli over the Sriracha alternative. The dip really makes the app. The plate is decorated with some greens. You get 2 egg rolls diagonally cut into 4 large pieces. For my main meal I had their Hangover Burger. This towering masterpiece of flavor comes with a mixed beef burger, fried egg (they ask you how you'd like your egg), bacon, melted cheese, crispy fried onion, crinkle cut pickles and a glorious layer of hash browns with Ellie's own hot sauce. The combination of textures and flavors inside the burger really deliver. Best of all, the burger wasn't overly greasy and messy to eat. Staff was super friendly and our server, Kendra was very attentive and thorough while running through questions about menu. This was my first time at Ellie's but it will not be my last.

    The concept of this restaurant has a lot of potential . It takes hard work to make a restaurant successful. The most important aspect of having customers return to your restaurant is the ability to adapt and listen to suggestions. Consistency is also key to repeat business. The food, the service, and the ambience is mediocre at best. Perhaps in time, things will improve. Parking is easily accessible.

    bathroom was super cute
    L.A. K.

    Hostess was friendly. Servers were friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. My vegetable barley soup was good. My caprese chicken sandwich was good, but the chicken was a bit dry. I cut it up as opposed to eating as a sandwich. fries were very good, BUT I wouldn't get with the cheese again, as it was pretty chilly in the restaurant, so the cheese wasn't melty by the time it got to the table. My husband really liked his reuben and the coleslaw was really good

    BLT Eggs Benedict

    Awesome breakfast spot! The menu was huge and so many great breakfast / brunch choices. Also love all of the breakfast cocktails! Everyone loved their food and I was a huge fan of my cold brew flight! I also loved that I could do call-ahead seating for a busy Saturday morning! I appreciate that they had that available. It was a little loud inside, but overall the inside was spacious and well-decorated. I love what they've done with the building. It's great that they have outdoor options, too. Will definitely be back!

    French toast with berries
    Marjorie M.

    When we first arrived, I was a bit nervous that there would be a long wait given it was a weekend on a nice spring day. The rather large parking lot was packed and there were already quite a few diners enjoying the outside patio and bar. Despite all of this, we were seated pretty quickly in a corner booth which was nice. There was a variety of items to choose from on the menu which I appreciated. Loved the donut hole breakfast app. The mimosa flight was great to share with another person. Service was great and our food came out quickly. Our server was friendly and nice. The meals are nice portion sizes and we were happy with our selections. The complimentary apple slices with cinnamon sugar was not bad, it was just interesting combo. I also appreciated that all though they were busy, we did not feel rushed to eat and go. Overall, we had a good dining experience.

    Fresh Veggie Bowl
    Nicole M.

    We were in Southington and were looking for some breakfast, so we stopped here. We were not disappointed. Our server was super friendly and helpful when we said it was our first time here. Very cute place inside too. I got the veggie bowl with over medium eggs and it was fantastic. The quinoa hash browns were so unique and flavorful. The platter was excellent as well. The hot sauce was also awesome and packed a lot of heat. Overall, this place was great and we would come back again.

We couldn't wait to come back. Several months later on our second visit, we arrived well before their posted closing time - 9pm. It was around 7:45pm, the lights were on, but the door was locked and the staff seemed to be cleaning up. One of them looked up, saw us standing at the door and then went back to doing whatever they were doing without bothering to engage with us. It was incredibly frustrating having driven almost an hour with the expectation of getting some delicious food, only to be ignored by staff at a time when they were supposed to be open. Many months later (giving them the benefit of the doubt that the early closure on our last visit was a fluke) we made the trip up again. We arrived to find the place was locked up and dark - again during a time when they were supposed to be open. Today I was with some friends and we stopped to have lunch at Smokin' With Chris next door. During our meal, I mentioned my past experiences with The Lab, but also said how good the food was. So, we walked over to look at the menu and possibly pick up dinner for later that evening. It was around 1:30pm, the lights were off and the door was locked. I double-checked their website, and they were supposed to be open at 11:30am. While I was on my phone, an employee came up, unlocked the door, turned on the lights and began his shift - two full hours after they were supposed to be open! WTF?! Apparently, the owners of The Lab seem to believe that their food is so epic that they can just operate their business whenever they like regardless of their posted hours. This total lack of consideration for their customers is beyond insulting. It's really too bad because the food is good, but not good enough to offset the unprofessional manner the owners are running (or in this case, not running) this place. There are way too many other great dining options available nearby that actually adhere to their posted hours to put up with this nonsense.

How can you not toast an English muffin? So the sandwich itself was not solid whatsoever.

So just a quick note to the owners and the chef and the cooks, toast, the damn English muffin, please!
