Showed up at Tunxis Grill on a busy Friday night with a party of 7 - we were seated in about 20 mins. Continuously updated on the readiness of our table - we were not forgotten, rather - we felt like valued customers. Our waitress was patient, kind and accurate. We ordered Pizzas, large salads, pasta and grinders - all the food was delicious and came as ordered (thank you for the attention to detail). Saw the restaurant manager "rounding" several times during our visit, good leadership! The restaurant has an older New England vibe with exposed brick and several TV's to watch sports. Our family really enjoyed the Tunxis Grill and would highly recommend it when you are in the area. Keep up the standards! read more

This has always been a good spot to eat. No matter what you order it's delicious! I had to do a review because their potato pizza stole my heart lol. Also please bring back your shepherds pie. Our waitress was a gem, my friend and I were cracking up after a year, not ready to order and she was patient with us and attentive. Parking is limited, I had to park on the street, but no big deal. Try it out, you will not leave hungry or disappointed. read more

We stopped here on a whim after visiting the air museum. Everything was delicious from appetizers to the main course. We had rueben eggrolls and beef skewers that literally just melt in your mouth. Both delicious starters. For my lunch I got the spicy chicken sandwich which was a letdown in the spicy department considering it mentions a hint of ghost pepper, but otherwise a really delicious sandwich. There was not one complaint about the food at our table! The pizza also was delicious here. The customer service was excellent here as well, they packed up our food for us, and even helped promptly with a water spill at our table. It was a happy accident stopping here! read more

The highlight of the meal was our friendly waitress Harley. The pizza took over 45 minutes and although the toppings and crust were good the sweet sauce made it less than stellar to me. I could only eat one piece. Luckily we also shared a steak salad. I had asked for honey mustard instead of balsamic and only after I had used dressing to cover my part did I realize they never switched the dressing. The place was crowded and they accommodated my request to sit early to wait for my guests. So five stars for staff.. 3 for food. read more

This is some of the best pizza in the area - and that includes their gluten-free crust! The flavor combinations they have are absolutely delicious and the gf crust is nice and flaky! The only small issue is that this little haven does not have gluten-free bread, so the sandwiches that are probably also delicious aren't quite accessible to me. They do have gf pasta though and the penne al a vodka is phenomenal! The bar is also so beautiful, it feels like sitting in medieval English pub and the atmosphere is so lively fan fun! The service is always super fast too - even when the bartender is super busy, they are so attentive! All in all - definitely worth a visit! read more

I swear I have been to this restaurant since I recognized the odd parking arrangement along the creek when their tiny lots are filled. Inside is cozy and homey with three seating areas, on either side of the bar area. The building is obviously built on the side of a hill since the seating area are on 3 different levels. Once inside, I was seated right away in the bar area, likely where I sat last time too.... but this time at a high-top table. After looking over the menu, they have a nice mix of choices from apps, salads, entrees, sandwiches, grinders and pizza, of course. They even had mashed potato pizza (one of my childhood favorites) and clam pizza (which I recently tried in another nearby state). This visit, I settled on a nicely priced steak tip salad and a French onion soup. Soup - pretty good and hearty with lots of caramelized onions at the bottom, then a layer of breadcrumbs, then the 2 cheeses melted all over the bowl. Steak Salad - a nice-looking salad with tender steak (tenderloin) pieces which taste like they were cooked over charcoal. I admit I did have to cut a few larger pieces of the steak since it was cut against the grain which made it unnecessarily chewy. Service here was great. My server, along with a couple of other employees, stopped by regularly to either take away trash, remove empty drink glasses or just check on me. I ended up adding a peanut butter pie. It's not homemade but it's passable. It has a mint layer toward the bottom which I wasn't a big fan of. read more

When I first arrived it was around 11:30am. The restaurant looked closed but after someone walked in I decided to order food. Ordered two salmon salads that were delicious. Wish I had found this place earlier. Was traveling on business and would have eaten there sooner. Service was friendly even when saying I had to pay extra for additional dressing. I had to wait for my food to be cooked but it was well worth the wait. read more

I've been here twice in the past week, first w nephew / Godson Joey (in from California, on his way to Italy), and then, a few days later, with friend, Karen. On both occasions, the joint was jumping, parking was a challenge, and the noise level was a bit high, BUT... service (Noah on Saturday, Katie on Thursday) was exceptional, as was the food. Joey and I split an order of eggplant fries, perfectly cooked, lightly dusted w parmesan cheese, and came w a side of very good marinara sauce. Very fresh (definitely not frozen from a bag). And generous portion. Highly recommend. I also had Reuben rolls (very good), while Joey went w a salmon (blackened) salad. We both rated everything 5 stars. With Karen, I took a cue from Joey and had the blackened salmon salad (shredded Brussels sprouts, craisins, candied pecans, bacon, in a light vinaigrette), while Karen opted for the steak tips salad (romaine, red onion, other salady type things). We both enjoyed. Overall, great service, really good food, reasonable prices (although $7 for a glass of Stella's is pushing it). 4.5 stars read more

I dined in here recently when catching up with a friend. The service was great, and the food... amazing! My friend tried the strawberry lemonade and I tried the blueberry lemonade. Both are delicious! They ordered the blackened salmon, which came with seasoned potatoes and string beans. I had the blackened chicken pasta with creamy cajun sauce topped on linguine, minus the mushrooms. Each entree came with the choice of a house salad or caesar salad. The portions were generous and good quality. Maybe a basket of fresh hot garlic bread would pair well with the meals. I am not certain if bread is given on the house, like other restaurants. We didn't opt for dessert because the meals were filling. They have about 5 selections to choose from including a key-lime pie, a layered cake, and a cheesecake. There are restrooms that are away from where diners are seated. The designer was very thoughtful in selecting where to construct the washroom. The restroom was clean. There are multiple entrances and handicap parking for accessibility. There is outdoor seating available which can be great to drive outdoors during warmer summer months. There is parking on both sides of the restaurant. The parking lot might fill up pretty quickly, especially on a weekend or holiday. We went on a weekday and when leaving, one parking lot was filled. Overall, I think you won't be disappointed if you decide to dine here. read more

Service was deplorable ! I was told by the waitress since I was last seated ( I was not ) that I would be served last which I was. She never offered a adult beverage menu never came back to offer desserts or coffee. We had called a week in advance asking for the lower are for a large family gathering and even checking the day before we were assured. They had no idea. Offered after everyone was seated we could move. Why bother. McDonalds has better service the the Tunxis Grill!!! read more

Had a nice meal here passing through as we try to avoid chains and hit local spots! The pizza was very good! Crispy thin crust ! The meat skewer app was also very good with a nice glaze ! My friend got the Parmesan chicken unfortunately it was pretty well done and was pretty dry. Overall though it's a nice spot with great service our waitress was very sweet made conversation and was attentive to us! read more

Tunxis Grill is a hidden gem that delivers on both flavor and hospitality. Their corned beef egg rolls are absolutely amazing--crispy on the outside, packed with tender, flavorful corned beef, and paired with a dipping sauce that takes them over the top. It's the kind of appetizer you order once and immediately want again. Beyond the great food, the staff here is incredibly friendly and welcoming. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth, and the service is attentive without being overbearing. Order these pieces of heaven before they sell out! read more

Service was good. From the host who seated me, to Lindsay our server, service was friendly and responsive. There were a few healthy options and I chose the quinoa bowl but wanted to add grilled chicken and salmon. I was happily surprised that an avocado was standard for the quinoa bowl since I was trying to decide between that and the superfood salad which listed it on its menu. However, I was very surprised to find out that they did not scoop the avocado out of its skin?!? Not sure how clean it was to have the shell placed in the middle of a bowl, but I'll have to have faith that they cleaned it first! There was also some issue with the salmon in that it was overcooked, but gratefully, they took it back and prepared a new one. The food was good and I would likely give it another try, but there was nothing that I would consider outstanding. read more

I celebrated my girlfriend's birthday here last week. We had a great time. The food was very good. I had their special for the day. It was seared sea scallops with fettuccine with spinach and garnished with bacon. It was so flavorful and delicious. We ordered the chicken and avocado roll. I would pass. It was very dry and bland. They have a great cocktail selection. I had the "Flirtini". It's my favorite. The bartender got it perfectly. Our server's name was Courtney. She was awesome. She gave us good suggestions. When you walk inside. You are greeted and you are seated promptly. It's a very nice ambiance. I will be returning. To all my yelpers. Let's continue to eat our way through the world. read more

Negative star rating based on lack of service and rudeness and total disrespect of our server. I had reserved space on the lower room for a luncheon to celebrate my father's life after his funeral. I park below to allow the other guest to park closer. When I get there they have no knowledge of the reservation and the funeral director had called from the cemetery to let them know we we enroute. Then they told my husband who walked in with me that he came late and would have to be served last. When I questioned the room they came back 15 min after we were seated and settled and said we could all move to the previous arranged room. The server did not introduce herself Every time for over an hour and a half I tried to get her attention to order the toast in honor of my dad she purposely looked away and didn't even ask what I wanted. Then as we sat waiting for the dessert menu people started leaving and I was told that s non family member was given the bill and paid it . Guilted into it When I confronted the ms ager he offered a free desert no apology. So disappointing and disgusting to be insulted repeatedly and then to try to placate me with dessert I'm not a five year that needs a lolly pop to make a booboo.feel better. And the insults never stopped read more

We are in Windsor Locks on our way north and saw the reviews for Tunxis. Wow! What a great find! I had the chicken parm and it was delish and enough for 3 people! The linguini under the huge chicken breast was perfectly Al dente. Loved it. The photo was taken after I'd eaten not even half! Diner number 2 ordered Edna's lasagne. It was scrumptious! Diner number 3 had penne a la vodka. Yummy sauce! It was great! All the dinners came with large salads and rolls were served for the table as well. The service was friendly and the place is nice looking. Large portions and really good tasting food! If I ever find myself in this area again I will definitely be back. Lucky for you if you live near here!! read more

Make sure you come hungry, the proportions are huge! The ambiance was nice, good drink menus and the prices were very fair. The service was great, our server was very attentive and accommodating to our fairly large group. This place leans Italian, though they consider themselves American. Offering pizza, traditional Italian dishes like chicken parm and penne ala vodka , but also offering other options as well such as burgers, meatloaf and a range of different dishes. I had a chicken parm and substituted the linguini and marinara with penne ala vodka. The chicken portion was huge, but cooked perfectly. The penne was great though the vodka sauce was on the watery side. The bread at the table was hot and fresh. The only thing missing from the menu was a cappuccino. Overall great experience, and will likely be back next time I'm in town. read more

Great pizza, traditional Neapolitan pies made fresh . Plus it's close to our favorite breakfast joint

I recommend the French onion soup for flavor, textures, and temperature. Seating was immediate and service was attentive during the late lunch 2:30 time frame. If you prefer salads lightly dressed, ask for dressing on the side. read more

Yummy seafood rissoto!! So rich and amazing. Wings , decent . Calamari, yummy. Good dri j options and parking lots on site.

Very nice restaurant. The pizza is decent . Our service was great the veggie pizza was a bit crunchy. I will try the pasta next time

Sweatshirt and ball cap. Suit and tie??? I believe anything will work as they have plenty of seating options. Just make sure you bring your walking shoes when it's busy. Parking can be a little tricky and you may need to park down the street. Don't fret though you won't wait long if at all to be seated. Once you get in, I hope you brought your wallet as well. Just so you can leave a good tip . Service was spot on. We had a wide variety from the menu. Everything was hot and delivered with perfect timing. They also have takeout. So if you do get a front row spot, it's probably too good to be true if you look at the signage. read more

Solid menu, pleasant servers, and good food! Hard to find a good place to eat in that part of town, but Tunxis Grille is it. Nice outdoor patio with umbrellas and very spacious interior with a bar area, too. I tried the penna with vodka sauce which was tasty. read more

My favorite part of the restaurant was the drinks menu! I got the pineapple coconut margarita and it was 10/10! There were so many other drinks I wanted to get but I had to drive home. The arancini was fabulous. Cheesy, soft and the sauce on top made it fire! I also got the chicken Cobb salad which was a huge portion. They did not skimp out on anything. I was very full afterwards. The staff was nice as well. The only thing is their small cramped parking lot. I wish they had a bigger space and more spots. I took the last remaining spot in their lot. Had it not been there, I don't know where I would've parked. read more

A small spot in Windsor, we met friends here for dinner. It's a nicely decorated and inviting restaurant with a staff equally inviting and accommodating. The server was over very quickly to take drink and meal orders. The entrees were out in no time and did not disappoint. The portions were large and the ingredients fresh and well executed. I orders the Blackened Chicken Pasta and it was delicious! They managed something many others can't, getting the seasoning through the chicken and pasta evenly with just the right amount of spice. This spot is a gem, can't wait to come back to try other entrees. read more

I ordered take out. I ordered the salmon, mashed potatoes and green beans. That was good I just had to add seasoning. The eggplant fries are usually good however this time it was like someone dumped a liter of grease on top of them. The box they come in was filled with grease and they were soggy. I had to put them in my nuwave oven to drain some of the grease and pat and squeeze them with paper towels. That was very annoying. I wanted to bring them back but my husband I had somewhere to be and I didn't want to be late. I also asked them not to cut the cheesy garlic bread because I have a pork allergy and they cut it any how. I did tell them I had a pork allergy and to treat all of the items as such. Hopefully that was honored. I didn't eat the garlic bread I was afraid so I gave it away. read more

Delicious pizza , pleasant wait staff . Comfortable atmosphere. Felt like where the locals go!

How have I missed this place over all the years I have flown into BDL? Tucked away in the middle of a neighborhood on the Main Street this quaint restaurant has it all. On one side is a tavern style pizzeria bar with clean modern tavern atmosphere to enjoy a game or great conversation. On the other is a more sit-down style restaurant with a broad menu selection. Probably THE BEST Clam Chowder I have had. Great consistency, plenty of .........wait for it....... Clams and flavor. A side salad with balsamic vignette and the Parmesan encrusted chicken. No knife was needed for this chi Ken as a fork did enough work as tenderness was not an issue. Served with masked potatoes that had bacon bits in them and fresh green beans. The service also was just as good. Attentive and a group effort. read more

Tunxis Grill & Pizzeria in my opinion has the best food in WIndsor. Nothing I have found on the menu is ordinary. Every selection is creative and well-executed.; ingredients are fresh and top quality. Presentation always is excellent. I will say, they are hampered by their success. Parking is often a problem, and the dining rooms are packed so tight they can be noisy and difficult to move in and out of. The food, however, makes it worth the effort. read more
