Best Contemporary American Restaurants in West Hartford

We went on Valentine’s Day, so it was very busy, but service was still pretty decent! A great place to o shareable small plates- especially the risotto tater tots! Expensive, but not the priciest thing in WeHa. Overall delicious food and a delightful evening.

The food and service are always excellent at Gather 55. The ambiance is very relaxed and welcoming and the staff is great!

Great food with wonderful service! Our waiter - Leighton - was very attentive, but not over-present. He timed inquiries perfectly between courses and conversation!

We had a wonderful pre-theater meal at Trumbull Kitchen. Megan was the hostess when we arrived and was terrifically accommodating on our request for a table in a specific location. The service was excellent, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our dinners. Everything tasted as beautifully as it looked. It's a wonderful place to go for a drink or dinner before the theater. My only less-than-enthusiastic comment was that the restaurant was very loud made worse by music playing way too loudly in my opinion. It makes it a challenge to have good conversation over dinner.

We thoroughly enjoyed both chicken entrées. Who knew they could be so different and yet both extremely delicious. The Peruvian chicken and the chicken confit. The shrimp was the best as an appetizer. Absolutely perfectly cooked and delicious. Would love to see the chicken confit join the menu, not just a chef special it was that good!
