    ASIAN RIBS - so so good!
    Tanya S.

    This was our first time visiting Roberto's. We went for a Father's Day lunch. We ordered few appetizers including the Bao Buns, Asian sticky ribs and the spinach and artichoke dip with warm toasted pita. That was my favorite! Their Baked Cod was huge over a bed of mashed potatoes and veggies. My son ordered Buffalo wings. Bourbon steak tips were really good too. I had a Lavender Lemonade and they have a nice assortment of beer. We had a really nice server and the atmosphere is definitely chic and good for date nights on the rooftop area.

    So I used to always go to Jonathan pasco's restaurant here in my now hometown of East Windsor.... And when they shut down and rebranded with new ownership of Roberto's, I'll be honest. I just never tried it until the other day... And I am so glad I did!. First off, the restaurant is always gorgeous. It is in a 1776 historic home of Captain Jonathan Pasco. ( With additions) Staff was great. Friendly and fast. And with my recent health issues and diet changes, it was really great to see a menu that was laid out the way it is, especially with everything with gluten-free options, carb free as well since I am on keto. My best friend Josephine is also gluten-free so she went with the same option with her burger She also had a fried egg and bacon on hers. She can eat carbs so she had some sweet potato fries which looked and smelled delicious... I'm just happy to get out and enjoy some restaurants. Def check them out and the easy to read menu if you have allergies or on a diet. And of course the gorgeous 1776 historic home.

    I went to Roberto's for the churros. I saw a photo, grew enamoured, and thought, "One day..." The day came sooner than normally does when I found myself in East Windsor for dinner. Roberto's is part of a larger strip mall in what seems to abutt a condo community. There is a reasonable amount of parking though, and you get in and out at a light. The main downstairs has several dining areas surrounding a bar, and if the lights on the second floor are any indication, they must have high up outdoor summer seating. My waiter was a nice fellow, pretty on the ball, although I think I hurt his feelings when I was distracted playing Pokemon Go. The lobster grilled cheese was much more lobster than anticipated, and delicious. The mashed potatoes were hot and creamy. Then.... The churros. Definitely not for one person, this is a dish to share! They're covered in melting whipped cream and chocolate sauce, and the cinnamon flavor blends right in. Absolutely recommended! The women's restroom is a bit of a trip - the stall doors open into the entrance, occasionally blocking people trying to come in. But it also has a fireplace, which is neat. Makes you wonder what the building once was.

    French toast and carnitas tacos
    Kevin D.

    Another weekend, another place to try. We have gone past this location a few times and it was time for us to try them out. Servers were friendly and food came out quickly. Location is very spacious and there's lots to look at. However the food was so-so. The foods were cooked well, and they were pretty. The problem is due to the perperation. There was no salt used, and there was a noticeable lack of spices used. The wings were juicy, but there was no spice. The French toast was oddly savory due to the lack of sweetness. It needed syrup to be palatable. The tacos had a nice crisp, but it was not seasoned so you got pork but nothing else. The tacos really needed a sauce to help carry things along, or a stronger pickle. The churros were greasy and a bit dry. and weirdly enough the chocolate mole was cocoa powder with no sugar added. Lead to a powdery chocolate taste. Everything here was fresh and prepared in house. You can tell from the down still on the wings and the sauces they make. However they are not using spices to help liven their dishes up. So they are approaching food correctly, but not making it very tasty. I suspect the issue is due to the location being primarily a bar. I've had better food at bars before, so compared to those locations this one is lacking. It's got the right elements to be good though, so I'm hoping my experience is the exception to the norm. Those who got drinks seemed happy, so if you want drinks this may be your place. For food, it's functional

    Pulled pork sandwich
    Sam B.

    Very impressed with this restaurant! Upon pulling up, it looked very fancy and I was a little nervous that we should have made reservations, but it was huge inside. There was an enormous bar as well as seating downstairs and upstairs. There was also a deck upstairs that looked perfect for outdoor dining in the summer. When we sat down we were given water and a basket of bread. The bread looked freshly baked and came with some type of butter I've never seen before. It had peppers in it and was a savory type of butter - odd sounding but it was delicious! A nice touch to the meal. I ordered the lavender lemonade for my drink. It was reasonably priced, very tasty, and pretty strong - I was impressed. We ordered wings for an appetizer which were delicious - I noticed that the bleu cheese was slightly different than any bleu cheese I'm used to which made me think it was homemade. We also asked for a side of ranch which was equally as high quality, I am always impressed when a restaurant takes the time to make their condiments in house. For our entrees I ordered the Caesar salad and my guest ordered the pulled pork sandwich. The salad was good, it looked like the croutons were homemade and the chicken was very flavorful. The pulled pork sandwich looked delicious and was served with a huge side of sweet potato fries as well as another side of choice. Overall, the prices were reasonable given the quality of the food and the ambiance of the restaurant. Normally I would have taken one star off for the service. It wasn't bad, but our server just wasn't super attentive. However, we were his only table upstairs so I won't hold that against him! I'm sure it was a pain going up and down the stairs to check on us since we weren't visible from downstairs. I will most definitely be returning to this restaurant when I am in the area! I noticed there is a restaurant called 'Robertos Log Cabin' in Lebanon which is closer to my home - I think is owned by the same person. Definitely makes me want to try it out!

    Blackened Chicken Linguine

    That industrial look this place has a nice feel. They have a close family like crew here. I came in on the late night and they even let me sit down eat and relax I will be back for sure

    The food wasn't tasty. The filet mignon was tough. Slow service, barely warm food and my drink was terrible.

    We are always on the lookout for good places to go for breakfast and Oscar's in South Windsor on…read moreSullivan Avenue was a wonderful find. I think it is relatively new (change from another restaurant in the same location)? Plenty of parking, both in front & in the back of the building. There is an outside patio that will be nice to use when the weather is a little warmer. Inside, the space is good sized, with both booths & tables. Our server was very nice, friendly and welcoming. Food was very good. Stronger coffee (which I prefer). My husband & I both had omelettes. The omelettes are made with 3 eggs & come with toast & potatoes. We always ask to have the potatoes cooked a little crispier and they were good. Prices were good. I noticed that there are gluten free items on the menu too. We will be back.

    A friend recently mentioned Oscar's. He and the Mrs. stopped in for lunch…read more First of all, kudos to Oscar's for being open 7 days / wk, for B, L, and D. Ample parking. Indoor (two sides, one w bar) and outdoor seating (in nice weather). So, I tried the cheeseburger with a side of fries. Advertised as 8 ozs. It was very good, not great. Definitely a patty, and also did not have that charbroiled taste. Bun was substantial, and held the cb well. Fries were very good. For me, the price point was slightly high, more in line with what a pub might charge. Lots of choices on the menu, and some interesting breakfast options. I also liked the happy hour listings. Service very good. So, overall, I am a fan. 4 stars

In the warmer months, they also have a nice patio area. The tap room was spacious with plenty of seating and high ceilings. I'm a huge fan of seltzers and sours, so I was excited to see that they had a few to choose from. I got to try two different flavors; those were called: 1. Blueberry Lemonade Spiked Smoothie- ABV 5% 2. Raspberry Lemonade Spiked Smoothie- ABV 5% Those were one of the best sours I've had in a long time. They also sell other brand's beers as well. My family and friends ordered beer and food from the Birdhouse Coffee. Aside from the food delay, we had a great time. The beertenders were friendly. The employees kept the area clean.
