Amazing food that is cooked perfectly and infused with tons of flavor. I had the chipotle Mac n cheese and an order of spicy garlic buffalo tenders (boneless wings). The seasonal drinks were tasty too. I recommend the seasonal drink called the "Tequila Mockingbird," that was very tasty. The mango creamsicle was a bit off, and kind of tasted like a lip-smackers chapstick. I cannot say enough good things about the beet salad! The presentation was absolutely beautiful! The beet salad tasted amazing and I highly recommend it, I got it with grilled shrimp that were cooked perfectly with tons of flavor. One of the best features of this restaurant is the front entrance that converts to an outdoor patio on warm summer evenings. They also have outdoor seating along the side of the building as well. The bartender was responsible for taking orders from the entire floor, so the service was slow, and food this good takes time and love.

This is our go to place when I am craving Fries and him Tenders, in two separate occasions we brought 8 people here and now it's there go to place. The loaded fries are absolutely divine I cannot get enough of them and I believe it's called sweet asian tenders forgive me if I am wrong my fiance orders 2 plates of them he really wants the recipe lol. When we go now we always bring a group of people and our family who lives down south tells us every time they visit we all have to go to Sawyer's. Also if you love Dart's it's a great place to play the game and chill.

Maybe the best wings in town. Great atmosphere. Relaxed. Haven't ever delt with riff raff there. But seriously, the wings are great. Id usually trek to bantam to woodspit for wings but now I dont have to travel far when I need a bone in wings craving.

The food here is excellent. The drinks are great and the atmosphere is amazing. I honestly like the drinks here more than anywhere else. The balance between taste and alcohol content is perfect. The espresso martinis are some of the best around. The bar tenders are all really nice and on point. When it gets busy sometimes it can take a while to get service, however, the bartenders do keep up as much as possible. This place is amazing and still within walking distance of downtown. There are sometimes fun events and it's a pretty varied crowd depending on the time of night.

I’m so confused. There we are, driving through Torrington on our way to NY…we’re hungry. I quickly check Google maps for the closest non-fast food restaurant near us. Whatever, we’ll go to this little bar. Walk in, my expectations are low because I’m hungry, cynical, and clinically depressed. Everyone looks like they’re having a great time, so maybe the drinks are strong at least. This dude takes our drink order - he’s full of life and good energy. Now…this man comes back with my espresso martini. I go “Okrrrr!” or whatever, to express that I’m impressed. It’s beautiful. He gave me the extra on the side too! Then the mozz sticks come out…is this a fever dream? Too much Benadryl? I thought I was at some bar, not a fancy…place! If that wasn’t enough…my dang beet salad comes out. Clearly I’m being punk’d. Kitchen staff is using, like…plating circles?? HOW IS EVERYTHING SO PRETTY AND TASTY. I lived in Torrington years ago, practically across the street…what is this? Who are you? Why isn’t there a location in Manchester yet? Is there any good reason why everywhere else can’t put in even half the amount of effort that this beautiful haven of love and food did? No, there’s no good reason. So it looks like you (we) are going to have to leave it to Sawyer’s, and keep coming back.
