User Reviews of The Silo

Salmon is great!

I guess I am not the only one that likes the salmon. I signed on as "salmon" and had to go up to "salmon5" to get an ID. It tasted great, with all kinds of spices and fruit on it. Like I said, it tasted great....

Poor service and cold food

We had high hopes my girl friend and I went back and were not surprised at the sub par service and cold food. We did have a 10 min wait and were placed a dark area in back corner. It took for ever to be waited...

Lobsters

Stopped in with my wife and a friend who had just left work. We ordered the lobster special. Also the seafood bisque. Both were excellent. Drinks were priced reasonably. The owner stopped by to ask if...

Good food and a place to take friends.

We went there 2 weeks ago with friends. They had been there one time before with us last year. They wanted to go back when they came to town. We were happy with the service. Greeted us on arrival and did not...

Don't waste your money

Just a huge let down. Like the others my steak was tuff and hard to cut. Wife and I even live on Yarde Drive and know the family that owns the place. They are nice people. The quality of the food was school...

Meal was poorly prepared, steak was not a good cut of meat.

I periodically review restaurants within Hartford and New Haven County. I certainly had higher expectations of the Silo. The meal wasn't properly prepared and although I returned my steak for another cut of...

Avoid if you remember old days

What happened? Please its all about the food and service and thats the problem here. Something is wrong here. Need new management is the way I see it. This is a trend with many of the old places. Work on the...

Why all the bad press?

We just moved back to CT and we checked the place out for old times. The food was fair but something was missing in the menu . The chicken dish my wife had was over cooked and my pasta was also over cooked. I...

personal vendetta

As far as the past reviews, it is obvious that this person, under several names, has a vendetta against one or all of the family members of the Silo Restaurant. To critique of "spoiled kids get a real job",...

Avoid

The reviews were right on the money. The place is a run down and needs to be sold. This family has taken every dime out of the place and has put nothing back. Its time to sell and have these spoiled kids get a...

Service and food were disappointing

Table was dirty, food was average at best. Service was subpar, We won't return. Ownership certainly doesn't take pride in this bar/restaurant. This was our second and final trip to the Silo. I don't understand...

Simple Consistancy

In a world of ever changing fads and choices it is always interesting to reflect on how good consistancy and longevity can feel, let alone taste. The Silo Resttaurant certainly knows about longevity and...

Wonderful Dining Experience

As they say, don't judge a book by its cover, as is so true in these reviews. We recently visited this restaurant and found it to be OUTSTANDING! From the moment we arrived to the time we left the food was...

Wonderful food and very attentive wait staff

After having read the reviews of the Silo on this site, I was skeptical about going but some friends talked me into joining them last Friday night. I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised! We ordered a...

Gambling joint

If you like gambling places, bookies, and running numbers this place is for you. A real mans bar. Very Italian

Filthy unfriendly depressing dive

The man that manages this place has really driven it into the ground over the past 20 years. A little spoiled brat that inherited everything from mommy and daddy however never worked an honest day in his life....

Unfriendly, and dirty

This place is a cheap meat market. Save yourself the headache. Every time we ordered drinks they arbitrarily charged us a different amount. Unprofessional.

Sleazy bar, I won't return

I went to this bar after getting out've work a few years back, with a few other girlfriends. That was a mistake. The pudgy little owner wouldn't leave us alone, he kept hitting on us despite the fact we showed...

Subpar food, and customer service.

Such ludicrous and nonsensical diatribe posted by this owner and her friend here in Citysearch. I see two people both taking part in the denigration and agreement of something indiscernible. That aside, during...
