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!

The place is small but they have parking and the waitress was very nice. Prices are reasonable. If you're not looking for a fancy WeHa Center kind of place and just want good food this is a good option.

NOT PASHA! wow. The complimentary bread and butter, which they serve you a mountain, is soft and fresh. Almost like a foccacia mixed with a fluffy pita. Sigara borek was phyllo rolled with feta inside. Any cheese lover would enjoy. The flakiness was perfect. Gozleme patato could have used more filling. I didn't really taste for feel the cheese. It did have peppers in it and boosted the flavor! Mixed chicken platter had A LOT of flavor and it was a great way to showcase each individual chicken dish. My favorite was the juicy kebab chunks. Shoutout to the doner as well! It was very flavorful and juicy. For dessert we ordered the knafeh. Cheesy, buttery, sweet, and crunchy. Very comforting and worth the 20 minute wait

City Kebab is a Middle Eastern kebab restaurant that opened in Hartford, Connecticut in September…read more2023. It was founded by husband and wife Uzbek immigrants Timur Rakhimov and Aziza Djalmamedova. The couple immigrated to the United States from Uzbekistan in 2010. After over a decade of education, training, and hard work, they decided to try their luck as restaurateurs. They found a space that used to be home to Hook & Ladder Restaurant (right next to Hartford Fire Department's historic South Green Station). The couple hired Turkish immigrant Hasan Korkmaz as their head chef. Together, they curated a menu full of traditional Turkish and Uzbek cuisine that is all prepared in accordance with halal dietary laws. Some of the menu items include kebabs, samsas, falafel, gyro, and mezzo platters. I recently dined at City Kebab while I was in Hartford to see a concert. I checked Yelp to see if there was anywhere good to grab dinner before the show, and Middle Eastern/Mediterranean cuisine sounded fantastic to me. When I entered, I was greeted by the very friendly co-owner Timur, who said, "I work for my wife. She's the real boss." After being seated, I began to look over the menu. When Timur returned, he tried to recommend that I get gyro. I told him, "Oh no. I know exactly what I want. I'd like to order a variety of small plates to sample. I'm a local food blogger and I want an authentic experience." Timur was just ecstatic and quickly went to give my order to the kitchen staff. I started off first with a small "Mixed Cold Appetizer" (combo of hummus, babganush, haydari, soslu patlican, antep ezme, avocado ezme), the "Falafel" (mixture of chickpeas, parsley, onions, garlic, Middle Eastern spices, deep fried) and a small teapot of "Turkish Black Tea". Timur brought me some complimentary "Ramazan Pidesi" (Turkish Bread) as well as a glass of "Fresh Squeezed Lemonade". He said, "You need to try this!" So far, everything was excellent! For the main course, I had the "Mixed Grill" (mixture of chicken shish, beef shish, kofte, lamb adana, beef & lamb gyro, served w/ white rice, bulgur rice, Mediterranean salad). It was a symphony of Mediterranean flavors! Timur surprised me with a "Pumpkin Samsa" (pumpkin filling in crispy pastry, seasoned with spices, served w/ tomato sauce) and said, "You can't leave without trying this. It's an Uzbek specialty!" It was very tasty! Before the meal was over, he said, "Save some room. I have another surprise for you at the end." He brought me "Künefe with Dondurma" (Turkish ice cream). I had never tried this before. Stuffed with melted mozzarella and then topped with pistachio and almond crumbles, it was simply divine! I repeatedly thanked Timur for his hospitality and for sharing his culinary cultural traditions with me. I had enough leftovers for both my wife and I to have for dinner the following evening. I'll definitely be returning with my whole family. If you're looking for an authentic Middle Eastern culinary experience in Hartford, then look no further than City Kebab!

The portion sizes will surprise you (in a good way) compared to anything else around. The quality is so fresh to where you wonder how this place makes a profit at the end of the day?! I tend to use their user-friendly website to order the gyro for pickup. When I head over there to pick it up the staff are always friendly and quick turnaround. The restaurant itself is clean and well maintained. I've had gyro at other restaurants and fairs. At the end of the day I'm always comparing to this place to where my family and I always end up back here for more!

The flavors were outstanding on everything and the toast points for the soup instead of soup crackers was just a perfect touch! The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the fries on the gyro and not on the side. They came a little soggy because of it and I really thought I'd have a side of fries. Oh well, now I know and I will ask them on the side going forward. Otherwise solid place for gyros if you're having a craving. Thanks Gyro Love!

While in the mood for Greek food, we stopped by Adriatik in Glastonbury. When we first arrived,…read moreoutside the door was marked as "Adriatik's Catering" I wasn't sure if this is where Catering orders come out of, but it turns out it's all one place. The inside was entirely empty, a few people stopped by to pick up their orders, but no one was dining inside. On the wall they have awards they've received from 2011 to 2025, all for being in the top 10 restaurants. It was a bit awkward being the only ones here, but there are bigger issues in the world. Their menu offers pizzas, pasta, gyros, salads and more. We first got an order of their sautéed calamari. This had a nice tender and chewy texture. This is unlike what most places offer. The sauce was also very flavorful, we actually ate it by the spoonful like a soup. Their garlic bread was great for dipping into the sauce. Not a very garlicky garlic bread but not bad. We all got some variation of the gyro, with salad, fries or rice. Mine was with the Greek Salad. This Greek Salad was very fresh and the feta cheese on it sealed it all together. Unfortunately the lamb in the gyro was very overcooked and dry. It wasn't good at all. The tzatziki sauce is always a favorite. Overall I wasn't super impressed with my meal. I might stop by sometime in the future and try something else.

Central Connecticut. Glastonbury to be specific. Fifty pizza places in a three block area. (…read moreseems that way anyway). But as we know this IS the spot on the map for the best pizza, not the south end of the state, its up here in the middle. And Adriatik blends right in. Got that greeky crust going on, thicker than that lame thin New Haven stuff. A decent sauce, not too sweet, not too much 'zing'. You wont be getting heartburn from it. Works for me. You looking for a pasta dish, you'll find something worth checking out. Baked Manicotti was good. Prices are getting up there, as they are everywhere. Plenty of tables inside, has an old school pizza place vibe. Staff is always friendly and happy to see you. The place around the corner in the same mall ( starts with a G) always seems to have more cars, must be the booze cus the food over there sucks. Adriatik, go there.
