Best Bars And Lounges in West Haven

Our first server was okay but then Anthony came over and he was exceptional. So polite, attentive and professional.

The drinks and food were excellent! Our waiter was lovely and the atmosphere is a very cool and invited vibe.

Another perfect experience. Our waiter, Stamatis, was polished, knowledgeable, charming, helpful, intuitive to our needs, and personable. The entire serving team worked smoothly and seamlessly filling water, bringing bread, clearing empty plates, and performing other necessary tasks. The specials menu was surprisingly reasonably priced and every dish was plentiful, artfully arranged, done perfectly, and absolutely delicious. Again, small things matter. Lemon for our water was brought promptly, appetizers and entrees were brought out at a correct pace, coffee was hot and delicious, leftovers were graciously packed and returned to their corresponding people. Sometimes restaurants excel in only a few dishes. Our orders included stuffed lobster, pork chop, a seafood pasta dish, ribs, as well as a variety of appetizers, and two different desserts that our party shared. Not one of these items was less than stellar. Spending an evening with old friends we hadn’t seen in sometime was exceedingly enhanced by the entire treatment we received at Spiro’s. Anxiously anticipating our next visit.

We have brunch at Atelier Florian every Sunday morning for over a year. We have had a delicious meal from a varied and enticing menu in a quiet, intimate atmosphere every week. We have gotten to know our favorite waitress, Trinity, and all the other waitstaff, from the chef (SO glad he's back!!) to the busboys. Everyone does his/her job pleasantly and professionally. The Bloody Marys are the absolute best! Every item on the Sunday Brunch menu is worth a try, from the Eggs Benedict to the "Homerun." The atmosphere is impressively understated, casual, and comfortable. Background music is pleasant while being hardly noticeable. (We miss the live guitar and piano music of the past that made the experience even more special.) The fact that we continue to go back week after week says it all. Whether we go alone or meet friends or relatives, Sunday Brunch at Atelier Florian is one of the highlights of our week.

GERARD greeted us most cordially and offered us prime seating by the window. As we enjoyed our cocktails, I reviewed the menu for something I hadn’t tried in the past… of course we had to have the Lobster Shooters first… but instead of one of the many seafood offerings which I usually enjoy, I decided on the Duck served with Lo Mein noodles…fantastic! Chef Adrian never ceases to amaze. We will be back soon.
