Best Fun Restaurants in Norwich

My visit was perfect! We were going to see a show and needed a quick dinner and the waiter made sure we were done in time.

The presentation of the food is first class. I’m not an adventurous eater but I always find something on the menu that I like. Today I tried the filet mignon with marrow and the crisp lobster roll. The filet was done perfectly and the lobster with avocado was a taste combo I would never think to pair, but was outstanding! DJ got a little rowdy on us. The music was better suited to a dance club. Great tunes but too loud to allow dinner conversation. Service was perfection and I think we had a total of 5 waiters buzzing about like bees refilling the water glasses, asking how the meal was, etc. Just now I realize that it is a similar feeling that I get on cruises in the main dining hall. You’ve got one guy seating you, another guy getting you bread and water, another one taking drink orders, etc. Very attentive but not intrusive. The prices are high, as one would expect from a fine dining establishment, but probably worth it, based on the quality of the food and the visible effort that had to have gone into it. I would consider this restaurant any time I was celebrating something special.

Everything was wonderful from the moment we walked in until we left. The check in crew knew we were on a date and even sat us in a cozy booth away from other families because we noted that we left our kids at home. It wasn’t necessary but it was so thoughtful. The salted caramel espresso martini was out of this world, the filet mignon was cooked perfectly at medium and so flavorful with the garlic butter. The rigatoni in vodka sauce was “absolutely amazing “ according to my husband. Then we actually ordered dessert which we never do. The brownie sundae was so delicious, we almost finished the whole thing! Our server was great, he was funny and checked on us often but too much. Unfortunately, I don’t recall his name but he was wearing a Cowboys Parsons jersey and he was the best! Highly recommend this place and will definitely be back!! We are sports ppl and the variety of games on the walls was awesome.

Although in a Casino, Ballo's is definitely a refined, lovely respite from the gambling areas. Never rushed, no hustle bustle - even in busiest (Holiday) times. We are seniors and use points and perks and save them just for the purpose of using them at Ballo for all of our special occasions - birthdays, holidays and our anniversary!! The servers are always well versed, friendly, social and attentive to one's needs/wants. My husband must use a walker and everyone has always been so accommodating and helpful. And, most important, of course, is the food - which is always wonderful. Never, ever have we been disappointed. Thank you.

Christmas Eve Brunch. Huge selection of breakfast & luncheon dishes. Omelets, Waffles & Pastas made to order. Beautiful, creative sweets. Service was attentive. Our favorites were the Eggs Benedict, Breakfast Sausage, & Pancakes. Will definitely consider returning for the Weekend Brunch.
