OT: Recommendations needed for Bachelor dinner spot

[I Bleed Blue]

I’ll keep it simple. My buddy is getting married in May and I’m the best man. I’m looking for a good place in Central CT to take the 7 of us to dinner.

Italian and steakhouses preferred, but all recommendations are welcome.

So far I was thinking J Gilbert’s, Carbone Prime, Carbone’s, Treva, Hot Tomatoes, Salute....

Thanks in advance!

Know a spot with a pretty good lobster tail and waffles combo.

Cavey’s?

 

[Kenny11]

Hot Tomatoes doesn’t exist anymore...the other restaurants you mentioned are nice but maybe not fun. Hibachi?

 

[superjohn]

Not sure about italian but Arby's has the meats.

 

[UC313]

Go barbeque. Smokin with chris in southington is solid.

Never been. Looks good. Solid recommendation sir, thank you.

Oh I’m living in Florida now. Didn’t know about Hot Tomatoes. That’s too bad. I’d love hibachi but the groom isn’t a fan of Japanese food unfortunately.

How do you know?

I feel like it’s a place you can’t really go to all that often, food is just ok... but every now and then you just need to slay a few liters of beer.

How do you know?

I drive by it every day.

I ate at J Gilbert's for the first time last night and had the best meal of my life. I'm not a big steak guy, and I still loved it there. Got amazing halibut, cauliflower puree and fingerling potatoes. For anyone who hasn't been there, it's so worth it.

There’s the whole best steakhouse thread... and yeah, maybe it’s not on a Capital Grille level... but J. Gilbert’s never disappoints. Love that place.

Halibut, cauliflower, and potatoes is the best meal of your life?

Hey maybe he’s Irish.

I believe nataz opened in Southington recently (last 6 months) great food can't beat the quality and price for what you get (steak, seafood, chicken etc) and it's byob

It doesn't sound like anything exceptional, but it was. Pureed cauliflower with bacon and duck fat fingerling potatoes were absolutely amazing, and the halibut was easily the best fish I've ever had.

Menu looks good... might have to try it out.
