    The service and food were absolutely exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with warm smiles, making us feel genuinely welcome. Their friendly and accommodating demeanor stood out, as they happily addressed all our requests and thoroughly answered our questions about dietary restrictions. The food was outstanding—made with fresh ingredients and featuring unique flavors and recipes that impressed us all. We were particularly thrilled when the chef came out to greet us at our table—a truly special touch. As we left, nearly the entire staff shook our hands, leaving us in awe of their hospitality. It was an unforgettable experience with incredible food and service. We’ll definitely be returning!

    Three Stars Michelin Quality Food at 29 Markle Court with its New American Cuisine is outstanding in City of Bridgeport, CT. Dinner for four, two couples. The oysters 🦪 🦪 were unique and delicious. Our international guest said they were best she has ever eaten! My husband’s entree was lamb 🐑 chops, which was a small plate, One had scallops in risotto, another ate the house made 🦐 shrimp ravioli and short rib for me! Two had oysters to start, one had the beets and one the huge Cesar Salad. Yum! Complimentary chocolate cake to celebrate a birthday. Wow! What a great night.

    The food and service were excellent. The dining room was incredibly loud. A young woman at the table behind us was cackling so loud, it made it difficult to hear. There was a little kid watching cartoons at such a high level that it was difficult to have a conversation. A suggestion is to require headphones if listening to an iPad or other device.

    From the music, to the service, to the food, everything was absolutely perfect. Everyone was very kindly attentive and the food was worth all the accolades(ordered the Papas Rellenas, the charred broccolini and the incredible Fried chicken sandwich. Wish I had room for dessert). Already looking forward to my next visit!

    Always a favorite place for dinner. Great food, friendly staff, good vibe. You always feel like a regular or family on a visit the 29 Markle. Menu is off the usual offerings. My top pick for a night out.
