   This was a celebration for my son’s birthday, and he was highly disappointed. It look almost 15mins to see a waiter, and when they did arrive it took over 30mins for us to receive our drinks (there was only 1 bartender in the whole restaurant). When she finally came back with our drinks she forgot the “birthday boy” drink. The food was also not great. The one good thing was the music. If it was not for that we would’ve probably left.

   First time at JAR & Bar! Very good food and cocktails! Our server Jonathan was excellent very attentive. He never made us feel rushed. We were celebrating 2 birthdays the restaurant sent over two complimentary slices of tiramisu candles included! The cake was excellent very fresh! We’ll definitely visit again!

   Date night with wife. Had her pick the restaurant and surprised me with jar and bar. Apparently stands for just another restaurant and that’s exactly what it was or even worst. The service was great but when it came to the food , it was bad enough for me to never step in there again. We ordered the steak medium rare and the salmon ossoboco which didn’t make any sense to me but was intrigued to say the least. How on earth can you cook a steak medium rare and it be dry , the brusslesprouts were burnt and raw at the same time. The salmon was dry and it came with scallops which I wish didn’t. So easy to sear them but yet failed miserably. Don’t know where ossoboco came in the dish. I originally gave it a 3.2 but after a couple days of post drama I down grade it to a 2.2. Pretty bad experience .

   Thought this place would be cool to try out based on a TikTok I saw. Very underwhelming in person. Seems to be still new inside, pretty dead on a Thursday night around 6:30pm. I’m always a fan of live music but there was no area to sit where you weren’t yelling across the table to your partner to conversate. Food was just okay, not a whole lot of flavor to the corn risotto at all, not worth the overpriced meal.

   Was excited to check this place out. Was disappointed by the time the check came. The drinks weren’t good. The food wasn’t good. The waiter didn’t come ask how we were doing or if we liked the food. (Maybe he already knows their food is trash). He just took away our full plates each course. The food wasn’t well seasoned. Ordered the lamb. It was supposed to be medium, it was well done. I had to request for a steak knife to cut into the dry meat. The chicken tacos were extremely soggy. The Brussels sprouts were just dry and salty. I got a crème brûlée for dessert. The sugar was barely melted (unmelted sugar can be seen all over). I won’t be back. And I won’t be recommending this place to anyone. We ended up going to bar taco after so we could have a real dinner and drinks. Service was bad and the food was bad.

   Took my family here for the first time and we enjoyed everything. The waitress was very attentive, the drinks were very refreshing and the dinner was delicious. It was our first time and we will definitely be returning.

    We LOVE coming to JAR + BAR for date night! The atmosphere is so cool, but feels like a place we can relax and hang out for a while. The food and drinks are AMAZING, and really gives my husband and I a chance to split a ton of fun things! It’s our new favorite place to recommend to all of our friends!

    Wonderfully fresh fish served in bountiful quantity that was perfectly cooked. Kitchen was slow, but well worth the wait.

    Great atmosphere, great server and staff. We did have a bit of delay with out meal but staff was upfront about it and handled it well. Taste of Hartford menu was on point, can’t wait to go back on another day to tackle the full menu. Bar service and recommendations were also on point.

    The food and atmosphere were amazing. We are parents, and wanted to grab a bite at a nice place for New Year’s Eve and decided on this place from their Instagram presence. What a great choice from the food to the service to the environment. This is also a great place for after work get togethers.

    The food was delicious and our server friendly and attentive. The music was current and on trend but a little too loud for the dining room. Would have been perfect if we were sitting in the bar area, which looked like a fun space. We were there 4 days before Christmas and the restaurant was decorated with lights and many poinsettia plants throughout. Unfortunately, most of the plants were shriveled and dying, dropping leaves into the booths, which was not a good first impression. Luckily the food presentation and creativity overcame my misgivings.

    Our server Mariangela (Mer/Mary) was absolutely amazing ! I would go back just for her to be my server. But overall the food was good and the ambiance was perfect. It was a good vibe and the staff was friendly. I was greeted as I walked into the restaurant and it was a welcoming vibe..

    Menu was too limited. Need to have more items on the menu with more variety.
