Best Seasonal Restaurants in East Hartford

We went early, so the noise level was fine. Does get louder as the evening goes on. Food and service was too notch as we’ve come to expect. We were not disappointed and will be back.

Went for Christmas. The mushroom ravioli and braised short rib was absolutely delicious.

Treated like they really wanted you to visit and enjoy yourself. Our waiter, Christian, could not have been more accommodating. The food was delicious, so much so that every bite was pleasant for both of us. Very imaginative preparation and presentation. You go to a place like Max’s on a special occasion hoping to get your money’s worth and we always have. And it seems we always comment the next day how much we enjoyed our night out at Max Fish. The ONLY thing I’d change if I were king: Max Fish always provides delicious rolls/bread in a nice basket, but the tiny pad of butter they provide is rock-hard, unspreadable and not even enough for one person, and we had two people. Would love spreadable butter or olive oil for dipping. Still, that minor irritation is nothing that would keep us from a return visit.

Excellent meals for all three of us, prompt service, waiter was attentive, and atmosphere was fun - everyone seemed to be having great time.

My friend and I went for our yearly Christmas lunch. It was packed with several other office parties, and yet the service was still great. Food is always outstanding. Give it a try.
