    One of my favorite places to eat in Danbury. I love how small and intimate it is. The food is absolutely amazing. The kimchi that is made there is delicious. The lobster rolls are super tasty too. I've tried the kimchi jjigae, bulgogi, galbi, and a few different rolls. I love it all. The workers are very friendly and helpful as well! Love the service.

    My 1st time at Maroo for a later lunch on a Monday. The location is an odd spot (behind other businesses) with a slanted parking lot. But the food is Excellent. My beef dumplings were obviously homemade and excellent. I really liked how the food and sides were separate on the plate so You had the option to mix. Or the option to not try the portions You know you dont like. The beef bulgogi also delicious. I hope they are on the take out apps because I need food from their again & soon.

    I'm surprised they're still in business with this attitude on top of how mediocre the food is. We ordered a poke bowl, a sushi set, bulgogi and japchae. Poke had spicy tuna in it that was SO spicy that I barely was able to finish 1/5 of it and had to polish it with milk and spoonfuls of sour cream. BTW that tuna was aggressively red in color (think flamin hot cheetos red). Japchae was probably the worst I have ever had - bland noodles with barely any veggies in it. Sushi and bulgogi were fine but nothing to write home about. Regardless of the food quality I would never go to this place again considering how nonchalantly rude the service was.

    Good food as always and generous portions. It's a nice place to have a quiet lunch on weekdays. Husband and wife team and they're both very nice. Yukgaejang is a huge bowl and generous portion for the spicy pork rice bowl. They give you so much side dishes and the wife makes the best kimchi.

    Wow wow wow. The food was amazing and so well presented. I love sushi. So it was great to find this so near Burlington Coat factory stashed back behind some buildings. Friendly staff. One star lost for not having hand soap in the bathroom. Lots of sanitizer but still.. the place was clean enough and I know they wash up in the kitchen but still gives me the uh o vibe.

    I love this place~the Korean food is superb and the owners are very kind. The fish is super fresh (had salmon sashimi), and the side of kimchi that came with my soon dubu was so good I had to order a side to go. You can tell that the owners really care about the quality of their food. Oh-and I missed the drinks you can grab when you walk in. They do provide hot tea when you sit down. The place itself is really clean and has a calm vibe. Even my spoon came with its own little spoon bonnet ::sigh:: Regarding the service; if you need something just ask; they are not going to be constantly coming to your table to check up on you; just relax and enjoy the food. Highly recommend and I plan on visiting often.

    Wanted to update my review with some more recent pictures. Once again, a wonderful authentic meal. My seafood soup Sunbudu was fabulous and the sushi was amazing. So clean in here. Quick service! Try it out!

    Coming back weekly. Food is much better than Edo, and you get more for side dishes. Just look at the pictures. Can't eat sushi anywhere else. Fish is always fresh and he gives generous portions. Best time to come is the afternoon when it's not as busy. It's just a husband and wife, so patience when it is busy. With that said all the food is homemade and authentic..

    Our first visit was November 2023 and we really enjoyed the food. We ordered the spicy tuna Poke, and the deluxe California roll. Both were big enough to satisfy our appetites. Quick service with complementary tea. The food seemed very fresh.

The bulgogi was good, but it maybe needed a little more salt or something extra? It felt like it was missing just a tiny something. Still very pleasant overall! When I got home, I had to try the kimchi jjigae. Have you ever had something so insanely good it could make you cry?!? It tasted like it was made with so much love. There were so many different flavor profiles happening at once. It was a truly magical moment. I already know what I'm ordering next time I go, and I really hope the same chef is there. 10/10!!!

Same to the Crab legs overcooked and tasteless. Not many seafood selection for bbq/hotpot. Pineapple very sour, looks not ripe yet. We had hotpot and bbq. There's always missing items especially the meat, not giving much veggies for you very small bunch (few strings watercress) for 5 pp(seriously!) then I figured regardless you add 1 or 5 they give you same amount, long wait too. We just end up feelin " begging for food" because you have to keep ordering to get some food to show up, unlike the experience we had in Danbury. I'd rather drive over there to have a better attentive meal. It's so obvious they failed to performe like a buffet especially there's comparison i had in Danbury and harsdale, NY and New Jersey locations. Service is slow even in a weekday. The person cleaning the table is doing good job, other than that, no one comes over unless we ask for it. Honestly in Danbury they keep coming over to either change the gril (so it doesn't get all the char)l or adding soup because they dry up quickly in small pot and no missing items. And also someone cares your experience.... It was also a birthday celebration night. Unfortunately the overall experience is not pleasant, food quality is below the standard. Hope they can improve as i do appreciate they are in the area.

    Over the weekend, my family and I had a feast at The Cue in Danbury!…read more This establishment is on the side of a busy road, so it might be tough to see at first. Luckily, there is plenty of space for parking. The restaurant has a good amount of outdoor and indoor seating. Its wood accented interior and warm lighting gives off a southern smokehouse feel, which is very on theme to the food they are serving. Ambiance rate: 8/10. They start off with unlimited corn bread which tasted okay, nothing super special. Rate: 5/10. My family and I ordered... 1. Crispy Pork Belly (from the pit) w/ a side of onion rings: This dish was delicious! The meat was nice and juicy, and the skin was super crispy! Rate: 9/10. - The onion rings were also very tasty and crispy! Rate: 9/10. One negative about this dish is it was a small portion of both meat and side for $23. 2. Table for 4: This consisted of an array of different meats from their pit, as well as 4 sides. As a whole, the portions were very generous, making it a very filling meal, and worth the cost. - Full Rack of Baby Back Ribs: This was flavorful however, the meat was very rubbery. It wasn't falling off the bone which was unfortunate. Rate: 6/10. - Brisket: This was my favorite meat! It was super tender and consisted of a good amount of fattiness! Rate: 10/10. - Dry Rubbed Chicken: This was average, tasted like your regular chicken. Rate: 5/10. - Smoked Sausage: This had a great smoky flavor to it making it very yummy! Rate: 8/10. - Pulled Pork: This was okay in terms of flavor and tenderness. Rate: 7/10. The 4 sides: 1. Truffle Mac n Cheese: This was good, except it lacked a truffle flavor which was disappointing. Rate: 6.5/10. 2. Mashed Potato-Brisket Gravy: This was average, nothing special: Rate: 5/10. 3. Baked Creamed Spinach: This was good, but it was more watery than I would've liked. Rate: 7/10. 4. Sweet Potato Fries: If you're a fan of sweet potato fries, these are right up your alley. Unfortunately, I can't give a fair rating since I don't like sweet potato fries. To add on, they give a variety of their different barbecue sauces which was amazing. My favorite was the Apricot Horseradish! The staff were very nice and helpful! Staff/service rate: 8/10. Overall, they hit the spot with some of their meats and sides, while others didn't. However, if you're in the area, it's worth trying their American barbecue!

    As a proud, card-carrying member of the "Find the Best Wings in Connecticut" father-son tour, I…read morehave to start by tipping my hat to my fellow Yelpers... because you were absolutely right. My son and I rolled into TK's American Cafe with high hopes and empty stomachs, ready to see if this stop could challenge the reigning champions of our wing universe: J. Timothy's Taverne and The Groggy Frog. Punchline: It didn't dethrone the champs... but the experience itself was still pretty great. First, the atmosphere is fantastic. Old wooden booths, high tops, TVs right at the table, KENO(!!!), and that perfect slightly chaotic sports-bar energy that tells you wings are about to happen. The décor fits the town vibe perfectly and the place just feels like a wing institution. The service? Excellent. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic -- exactly the kind of crew you want guiding you through 70+ wing sauces like a sommelier of poultry. Now... the wings. The chicken itself was excellent quality and cooked perfectly. Crispy skin, juicy meat, great size -- everything you want when the wings arrive. When we saw the massive sauce selection, we were ready for wing nirvana. But this is where the prophecy of Yelp reviews past came true. The sauces were delicious in flavor... but thin in viscosity. Instead of lovingly clinging to the wings like a good sauce should, many of them staged a dramatic escape and formed a puddle at the bottom of the platter. So instead of eating wings, we spent half the meal doing a sort of wing-dunking relay, re-dipping each bite back into the sauce lagoon. To be fair, the teriyaki and barbecue-based sauces held on better, but if you're a classic hot-sauce wing person like me, you may find your wings swimming more than sticking. The blue cheese was excellent, the celery and veggies were fresh and crisp... although the carrots were so wide they looked like they were cut for a horse with impressive jaw strength. Credit where it's due: the steak fries were fantastic, and the nachos were surprisingly great -- the kind that taste like something you could make at home... except somehow way better. So where do we land? Great atmosphere. Excellent service. Very good food overall. But on the Connecticut Wing Power Rankings, the crown still belongs to J. Timothy's and The Groggy Frog. Would I come back? Maybe... but on the drive home we passed about six intriguing Brazilian restaurants and a Pepe's pizza, and suddenly my lunch decision tree got complicated. Still, I'm glad we tried it. TK's is a fun spot with a great vibe -- just maybe bring a spoon so you can scoop the sauce back onto your wings. PS: if you stick blend/emulsify some xanthan gum into the wing sauce when you're making it hot... It will stick perfectly to the wings... In case improvement is something you're interested in

    I'm continuing my tour of the great CT wing places. My latest first was TK's. We visited right as…read morethey were opening on a Tuesday around 11 a.m. on our way out of CT on vacation. The focus of our visit for me was wings, but I also tried some tasty cheese topped chili with chips. And my son's steak fries. They were gigantic! As for the wings, the chicken was high quality and had good texture. The blue cheese was above average, and there lots of pieces of celery and carrots. Most of my comments are about the sauce. I tried 3 sauces. The Hot Buffalo Sauce, which I understand is a CT favorite, was good, but it didn't really stick to the wing. Some of the sauce may have been absorbed in to the skin of the wing, but it wasn't that noticeable flavor-wise. There was a small pool of sauce at the Bottom of the basket rather than on the wings. I suspect the wings weren't adequately tossed in the sauce. Or maybe it was a thin batch of sauce and didn't stick for that reason. In any event, the sauce situation was not ideal for the Buffalo wings. My favorite sauce was the Fire & Ice, which consisted of TK's hot sauce, Ranch and Horseradish. This sauce stuck better to the wings. It had a nice rounded flavor. Mild heat, A bit of tang. A very good sauce. My third sauce was the Dragon. This sauce also stuck to the wing well. It consisted of Honeyaki, Ginger, Suicide sauce and seasoned seeds. The sauce was pretty good, but it didn't taste like I expected given the menu description. I didn't pick up any Ginger, which was what I found intriguing about the description. The sports bar/restaurant itself was cool. There were plenty of big TV's. And smaller TV's at the tables along the outside. Service was very good and friendly. I'd definitely check out TK's again. Next time, I'd probably try to visit at a later time when there were a few more customers there because I wonder if some of the sauce issues were related to it being an off peak time. 4.25 Stars

The employee working the front had an extremely rude attitude from the beginning. When I politely asked about my order, she told me, "They're already made," even though I could clearly see the food was still being prepared. What made the experience even worse was watching her repeatedly tell the store manager to delay my order simply because I requested no pickles. Meanwhile, other customers were being helped while I stood there waiting with no explanation and no apology. The lack of professionalism, respect, and honesty was shocking. A simple customization should not result in nearly half an hour of waiting. Instead of helping solve the issue, the employee seemed more interested in creating problems and giving attitude to customers. This was one of the worst fast-food experiences I have ever had. If management cares about customer service, they need to address the behavior of this employee immediately. I will not be returning and would not recommend this location to anyone expecting basic respect and decent service.
