My second visit here, following a business training/meeting/dinner earlier in the year…read more Love the vibe here...dim lighting, just right background music, old dark wood, and stellar service! The team said it was a quiet Thursday evening but plenty of buzz at the bar, with seat turns... Beer choice nice, Craft Old Fashioned was really unique, entree was top notch. Once again, service team was excellent! Thank you, I'll be back!

We stopped in for dinner and it was great! Our server Liz did a good job of taking care of our…read moredining experience. She was quick and efficient, very attentive. For starters we had the crispy pork belly. It was delicious, it came with a sauce and some cabbage, it was really good, personally I would have liked it a bit more crispy but it was really good. For our entrees I had the short rib served with veggies and it was so tender and flavorful. I was really impressed. My girlfriend had the gnocchi jambalaya and it was served with spicy sausage and chicken. Again an entree packed with great flavor. Overall, we really liked this place and will definitely go back to try other items on the menu.

This is an eclectic old world style bar and restaurant, easily visible from I-84 in Danbury near…read morethe NY border. The place is built around memorabilia from Danbury's history including a model train that runs around the bar ($0.25) and other interesting oddities. Service is super fun and friendly and our server Natalia was outstanding! Pub food was great- our wings, potato skins, and spinach and artichoke dip (served with veggies and chips and garlic bread strips) We had a great meal and a great time!

Five stars all the way. This place is family owned and operated for more than 40 years, and you can…read morefeel the pride the moment you walk in. The walls are covered with relics from the old Great Danbury Fair, and the 100-year-old bar gives the whole place a warm, lived-in charm that feels real, not staged. We tried the SouthWest Eggrolls with the guacamole ranch dipping sauce and they were seriously good. The Mushroom Panini was packed with portobello mushrooms, fresh mozzarella, red pepper pesto, tomatoes, and greens on rustic crust bread. Add Rosy's fries and you're set. The Pastrami on a Pretzel Roll was another winner with sautéed onions, Swiss, and whole grain mustard. Also came with Rosy's fries, which we happily demolished. Rebeca, our server, was awesome. Friendly, quick, and on top of everything without hovering. Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Can't wait to come back.

Visited on Sunday before ST Patty's. Went to see Piper Dream to see Coryanne with her bag pipes!…read more Excellent music and dance area. Decided to have Irish food since that was the menu for the night. My friend had the shepherds pie and it was HORRIBLE. If you could find a carrot you were lucky never mind any of the other veggies. The potatoes were little scoops plopped around the top, no cheese. Bland and horrible. Worse Shepherds Pie ever. I had the corned beef reuben and the corned beef looked like scraps that should have been used on nachos instead of a sandwich. There were some strips of CB with sauerkraut and the swiss made the rest of the sandwich OK. Would go back for the music but would not have food here. Waitresses were not as attentive as they should have been as we had empty glasses of Guiness and needed refills and had to wait along time to get them to swing by. Excuse twice was the Guiness kicked? I can see 1 time, but not 2 in a short time. If you want authentic Irish fare go somewhere else.

Love the corn beef and cabbage inside. Regular nachos were OK, they were missing key elements of nachos. No jalapeños, no salsa, no guac. Pretty lackluster.

First time here today. When I arrived about 2:30 Saturday afternoon we were the only table and…read morethere were 2 people at bar. We were seated and given menus and water. There was a bar tender and 3 waitresses. We ordered and sat waiting for our drinks? Then the appetizer was delivered at same time as lunch....really? After food was delivered we didn't see our waitress again, the bar tender left and someone else took over the bar. She was so busy chatting up the now 3 people at the bar she never glanced over at our table. We had an empty pint glass and empty bottle at end of table signaling for drink refills but that went unanswered. After waiting about 15 minutes I decided our waitress must be on break and forgot to let the bartender know? Another couple had been seated behind us and I heard them complaining some of the food wasn't hot and where was our waitress After 20 minutes unattended I stepped up to bar and asked for the check Poor service is inexcusable when a place isn't busy!!! Won't be coming back Shame as menu seemed to have good selections

In Danbury we stopped by Square One for lunch. We were all pretty hungry by the time we arrived…read more It wasn't very busy when we were here, it might get more popular during the evening hours. The bar area seemed fun, with the string lights and their cocktails seem like the reason to return. On this occasion we all got mocktails, it was hot and the drive home was long. I typically don't do mocktails, but this one tasted like the real thing. It was only $6, many places charge around $10. For my meal, I got the fish tacos. These came with three corn tortillas, filled with grilled cod, avocado and slaw. On the side there was rice and beans. This was so filling, fresh and tasty! I also enjoyed the rice and beans. I could've had just two tacos, but I had all three. Our waitress was fast and efficient. Everyone else was happy with their meals. The restroom featured just one stall. It is a bit confusing to me, that a not so small establishment would have just one restroom. Aside from the restroom, the food was very tasty. I would return here again.

We visited Rebellion Kitchen + Bar on Thanksgiving Eve, so the restaurant wasn't very busy, but…read morethat actually made the experience even better. The atmosphere felt relaxed and welcoming, and the staff was attentive without ever being rushed. It gave us a great chance to really enjoy the space and the food. We started with the two-cheese crostini, which ended up being one of the highlights of the night. The bread was perfectly crisp, and the cheeses had just the right amount of richness without being heavy. I also tried their seasonal non-alcoholic Spiced Apple-Lini, and it was surprisingly delicious--refreshing, slightly sweet, and very "fall in a glass." For my entrée, I ordered the chicken Milanese, and I have to say it might be the best I've ever had. I'm usually very particular about chicken dishes, but the flavor and texture were spot-on. The breading was light and crispy, and the chicken itself wasn't dry at all. The plate came with a beautiful mix of seasonal vegetables--roasted squash, shaved fennel, cranberries, and arugula--topped with an apple cider vinaigrette that pulled everything together. It tasted fresh, balanced, and really thoughtful. We ended the meal with their cheesecake served with a house-made pistachio crème. The flavor was fantastic, especially the pistachio topping, which really made it unique. My only tiny note is that I personally prefer cheesecake a bit colder and denser rather than closer to room temperature, but that's purely personal preference and didn't take away from enjoying it. The owner also came by to chat with us, and he was incredibly friendly--clearly someone who cares about his guests and the quality of the experience. Between the great service, thoughtful menu, and inviting atmosphere, we're already looking forward to coming back and trying more dishes. Definitely a strong addition to the Danbury dining scene.

This place is one of my favorites

We come to Danbury on occasion from Atlanta for meetings and corporate events. We decided to try a…read moreplace we haven't attempted and it did not disappoint. The setting is nice with plenty of parking. The outdoor seating was a nice setup with fresh flowers blocking views of the road and parking lot. The waiter we had was super nice and helpful, not being too overpowering but checking in just the right amount. We started with the Mezze Dips which is hummus and whipped eggplant dips with a spread of fresh veggies and warm pita bread. It was very good and we all enjoyed it including our toddler. The menu is big enough to have something for everyone on any diet while keeping things fresh and not overwhelming. I went with a basic vegan burger which was absolutely fantastic on fresh grilled sourdough, it would even be good without the vegan patty if you want to avoid that. It seemed likely a Beyond or Impossible type party which I am fine with on occasion. My wife decided to go the fish route and got the crispy fish sandwich which was a huge size and she ate almost all of it. She said it had really good flavor and would order again. Our toddler got Mac and cheese and of course snacked on the appetizer and our fries. I gave the Mac and cheese a taste test and it was nice and fairly light versus the sometimes highly overpowering stomach bombs places make. Overall it was a nice dining experience and reasonably priced for what you get. I can't speak for the inside vibes from this experience since we were outside the whole time but overall I will definitely keep it on my list for the area and plan to go back. Maybe even again this week!

What sets this place apart from the rest is their service. They are extremely amenable, almost too amenable, they do an absolutely phenomenal job of working with you to make sure your get together is successful. Is 'fancy'? No. Are your guests going to be 'wowed' when you tell them where your get together is going to be? Not at all. If that's what you're looking for this isn't the place. If you're looking to have a comfortable casual party where your attendees feel like they are at home and don't give being themselves a second thought look no further, you've found your venu.

I had a strip steak for dinner and it came with potatoes and brussels sprouts. The steak was okay. It was cooked to the proper temperature. The peppercorn sauce that it was served with didn't have any kick...maybe a little more peppery would have helped boost the flavor. The sprouts were nice and crisp but the roasted baby potatoes were super bland. We had tiramisu for dessert. It was a generous portion and tasted fine. Overall a decent experience...no major disappointment but nothing that stood out to make me want to rush back.
