Diner reviews of City Fare
A diner from Andover, CT
Oct 10, 1999
City Fare's not just a caterer, it's my favorite Hartford restaurant! Don't be fooled by the outside; it looks a bit like a garage, but once inside, there's original art on the walls and you're surrounded by wonderful food and sophisticated crowd that appreciates fine lunch fare. Standard offerings include sandwiches, salads, soups, but there are more substantial daily specials. Believe me, the standard offerings are NOT standard fare -- the food's fresh, delicious, and artfully arranged. My favorite sandwiches include veggie on foccaccia (they make their own), grilled lamb with radiccio, and fresh mozarella with roasted red peppers and tapenade. Salads are beautiful to look at and unusual works of art that taste as good as they look. Try noodle with grilled steak (Asian-inspired), antipasto, or the balsamic dresseed salad with barbecud lamb. For that matter you could probably try anything here and be very happy. My only complaint? They close at 6 p.m.

Good comfort food in large portions. Veal dish was very good but the shrimp dish seemed a bit overdone. Sausage and peppers were fine. Service was attentive, prompt, and pleasant.

I've been here three times and all three times were bad. The service is horrendous. Salmon was dry and overcooked. Mixed drinks are undrinkable. The ambience is okay except for the other diners who are low class. I will
