We were going to go to Sherkaan tonight and treat our fancy friends, but it’s closed! Quick, another comparably-priced restaurant with similar atmosphere??

Tavern on state.
Best place in town.
Resurgemus t1_jd53xqb wrote
Yes. Or Shell and Bones. Do not fall for Florian which seems so conveniently located downtown. They use poor quality ingredients. Don't let the decor fool you. Trash.
Resurgemus t1_jd540f9 wrote
This would be my first choice.

Tavern on state or Consiglios

How is it? Tavern on State is good but that spot on Front Street has had a lot of turnover.

It's fantastic! I went in the Fall. There is really nice seating along the deck and also inside. The food was fantastic, really well executed very much a high end farm/sea to table!

I hate to be a dick but shell and bones missed the mark both times we went. I wanted to like it so much. First time the pasta I got was so overdone it was mush. Then we went with husbands family. Was meh.
ETA grammar

We were at Shell and Bones around the time this was posted, pretty good atmosphere and views

Good to hear, I hope they do well!

I’m a sucker for their steak frites.

I agree. Shell and bones (and the rest of their restaurants) has great ambiance, but their food should be much better, especially considering how expensive it is

Tavern on state is our favorite restaurant! Camacho garage is a fun atmosphere and the food is good. Adriana’s is delicious and classic New Haven

I hear The Luke is phenomenal
numitoke t1_jd5wt2e wrote
Tavern, Union League, Olea no particular order.

I've had more bad meals than good at shell and bones
lolaya t1_jd60qnk wrote
Definitely a lot more expensive than sherkaan

This list is tragic

Humble them bring them somewhere bad

Agreed. So expensive and so inconsistent and underwhelming.

I’m too late, but these always impress guests: The Luke, Rockfish, Nolo, Tavern on State, Fair Haven Oyster, Camacho, Hachiroku.
curbthemeplays t1_jd6jkhs wrote
Fair Haven Oyster is much better.

I cannot believe no one else mentioned Union League.

This is such a good list.

It’s excellent. Wouldn’t expect much less from Emily and her team.

I’ve been very impressed by what she’s done with Tavern and provisions. Always good to see small businesses do well!

Union league cafe or ZINC kitchen

Right? My time to eat nice is limited, so it was a huge disappointment. We stick to Ralph n riches in bpt. Never had a bad meal and got engaged there 🖤

lol I just looked up tavern on state bc a bunch of people recommended it…. That was the most pretentious menu I have ever seen. And I’ve watched top chef since S1. Did they just throw a cat at the keyboard?
