Best Casual Restaurants in New Britain

The Flying Monkey is a great place and fun! Food is delicious, a very cozy ambiance—one side of the restaurant host great bands and musicians on certain days and the staff’s very attentive! This is a must visit for any food lover!

Perfect restaurant, food & experience:) I love coming here for the gluten free food!!

The manager is amazing! Staff is very tentative. Love it!

An absolute exquisite dining experience with incredible service, fine wines, and a wonderful cozy atmosphere. This is absolutely my favorite restaurant! Is the only place that I go where I never put anything on the steak. No salt or pepper or anything. The way it is seasoned and the way it comes is perfect every time. I’ve been going to J. Gilbert for 25 years and it’s amazing that I’ve never had to send anything back to the kitchen. They are so careful in their preparation and so precise. Such high-quality food. It’s also the restaurant I go to for every one of my birthdays!

slow to start but good thereafter. arrived early for reservation but had to wait until the arranged time. no drink menus given when seated, and that slowed our start. waiter then distracted with others as we had to wait to get them and then to get the drinks. after that, all went smooth and efficiently.
