Wood-n-tap - Hamden

I haven't been to this location before, but I am a fan of the franchise. It couldn't have been better. The server was pleasant and attentive, the food came out quickly and was fantastic, just as we had requested. The highlight was when our waiter quickly cleared the table and brought us the check so we could continue on with our day (it was lunch time and we had a lot to do). I will definitely consider returning when I am in the area. Overall, a great experience and a good value.

We were passing through the area and decided to make a pit stop at this restaurant. We were seated promptly and found the hostess and waiters to be friendly, but unfortunately, the service was a bit slow. Our food arrived lukewarm and not hot, indicating that it had been sitting out for a while before being served. The chicken platter was overcooked. On the plus side, our drinks were good and the food only tasted fresh when it was served hot.

Great place for Tappy aka Happy Hour drinks and appetizers!

I was just here once and I wish I could go back. I went with my family and we were full and happy when we left. The food there is really good, I had nine Cheeseburgers and one thing with Fritten. The meat was high quality that my neighbor, a cook, could not stop talking about it. They were the best cheeseburgers I ever had in my whole life. They had a lot of taste, tenderness and juice that they melted in my mouth. The chefs have not added much to the meat at all, so it naturally tasted well without additional spices/bottles. The servers were nice and they even gave a special desert recipe to my neighbor when they asked.

I decided to order online, show up early, and check out the restaurant. It was for 7:30pm, so I arrived at 7:10pm. As I was parking I noticed a lot of parking spaces for curbside pick-up, along with it's own side entrance. Very impressive. As I walked inside of the restaurant I was greeted by a friendly hostess who already had my prepaid receipt available to sign. I was offered to sit at the bar while I wait for my order. I explained that I was doing a Google review and she was okay with my taking some photos to post. The decor is very nice, the atmosphere is calming, and the guest all seemed pleased with their meals. All great signs in a restaurant. My food reached my hands at 7:23pm. Quickness is great, unless errors are made. I ordered a bacon burger medium well and a hickory burger medium. With a few minutes drive to my destination I considered carryover cooking. To my delight the temperatures were perfect. I definitely tip my hat to the cook. I bit into the hickory burger and immediately noticed the dry taste of brioche buns. There was no bbq sauce on my sandwich. Everyone who is educated in culinary arts know a sauce makes a meal. Only took away 1 star instead of 2 because everything else was on point. I haven't decided yet if I'd return back to the restaurant. If you want to give them a try they're a minute away off Route 15 (Merritt Parkway) Exit 60 on Dixwell Ave.
