   Very enjoyable experience with great food and great service. Met friends at the bar and then were seated right away. Our waiter was pleasant and patient as it took us a while to choose an entree as we were catching up with each other. Will definitely return.

   We went prior to a concert at the XL center. We had a great time, the place was buzzing with excitement. The food was delicious from start to end. We shared the Chang Mai noodles and the chicken sandwich which were all delicious. I always come back!

   Trumbull Kitchen was an excellent choice for our dinner reservation. We had a party of 11 and the staff did a great job with the group. Split into checks without a worry and accommodated any food allergies. The bill was very reasonable given the quality of the food, drinks and service. Would definitely recommend!

   Arrived on time and were seated right away. Tables were a little close together where we were; thankfully our table neighbors were lovely. Service was excellent overall. Could not have asked for a kinder, pleasant, and efficient server. We started out with some Caesar salads, both delicious. Wine was great as well. Unfortunately my one gripe is the main dish. I was originally going to order the hangar steak, but the server convinced me to try one of the specials, so I opted for the marinated skirt steak and baked Yukon potatoes/broccolini instead. Potatoes and broccolini were fantastic, however, the steak was so salty and chewy I could barely eat it. My wife also said her brick chicken was overly seasoned and salty. It’s a shame because I was really looking forward to the steak from the quality I had been accustomed to the previous year. We may wait a little while before coming back.

   Haven't been here in more than 20 years, and made a reservation for two families (total of 7 people) to dine on a Saturday night. It was loud - and maybe it's because I'm older now, but our table was right in the middle of the dining area in the back and it felt like there were speakers right above us. Food was good. Nothing was amazing or blew us away. The guacamole portion for $14 was tiny, it may have been a single avocado and was pre-mixed, so we couldn't request no onions. My daughter ordered an item off the vegetarian menu (simply because that was what she wanted to eat that night) - the cheese ravioli, and when it arrived it was piled with shrimp - which she doesn't eat. So that was disappointing, and she was grossed out. Service was fine. I ordered a second drink while waiting for our meal that never arrived unfortunately. I had to ask as we were ordering dessert to make sure it wasn't on the bill. This will not be a place we return, even if we are in the downtown Hartford area. Too expensive for the quality of food and service received.

   Everything was good. Guac appetizer was very small and skimpy. Most sandwiches and salads were good. The buffalo chicken wrap was so-so.

   Service has improved since last couple visits. Music is good but a bit too loud. Bar order was underwhelming
