Best Casual Restaurants in Meriden

The entire staff from our hostess to waitress to manager were all amazing! The food was outstanding. Four of us dined and shared apps and tried each other’s dinners and there wasn’t one thing we didn’t all enjoy. We arrived on time but there was a bit of delay getting us seated. The hostess continually checked in with us and made sure we were seated as soon as a table was available. The manager was apparently made aware (not by us) and at the end of our meal she offered us desserts on the house, which was both unexpected and very much appreciated. A great touch and ending to an overall outstanding experience. We will be regulars here from now on!

The whipped ricotta small plate was amazing! Drinks were superb as well. The grits that came with the scallops were flat but the scallops themselves had a very fresh taste.all in all will definitely go back. The sour dough had a great crust on it. The butter was cold wish it was more room temp but I can’t be too picky lol

Fantastic happy hour menu and prices, including food and drink. The happy hour cocktails were delicious and not just run of the mill. The wood-fired oven is there for all to see (and generate heat) and put out great charred New Haven style pizza. As a pizza snob, I was very impressed. With the happy hour start that we had, the dinner was unbelievably affordable. The place has a nice vibe, and as it filled up, so did the noise level. The interior is largely wood - walls, floors, and tables all made from a similar wood, allowing sound to bounce across the room. The place felt vibrant! I will absolutely be back at Krust.

I attended the brunch with my three grandchildren. The y had an event that day for crafts and How the Grinch Stole Brunch. The Grinch was awesome, and the kids LOVED it! Food was awesome and waiter stopped by often. Will definately consider going here rather than other breakfast places!!

Great experience. Food was delicious. First drink was wrong, but bar tender quickly fixed it. Service was good.
