First time here, stopped by with my daughter for lunch. I ordered the half rack of St. Louis style ribs which were so good and the meat just fell off the bone. Sides were mac n cheese (good but could use a bit more sharp cheese) and hot deviled egg (very good). Daughter had the Smoked Chicken which she said was excellent along with the backed beans and garlic mashed potatoes. Our server who said she was new there , made a few good drinks for us and did a great job both handling the bar and the seating section on the right by herself and in a timely , friendly fashion. Was very happy with everything. Will try a few different things next time.

Best BBQ in CT, hidden away in a small spot like this, with a nice welcoming feeling. Everything was just really great.And a free billiard table for fun and drinks!

We really enjoy Tavern on the Hill both for take out and dining in. The food is always tasty and hot. Potato Skins are excellent and the smoked chicken is delicious. The onion rings are great and my wife loves the veggie plate. They poor heavy drinks and the staff is always nice, even when busy. They often have music and we are grateful to have a local eatery that is dependable and consistently good!

At 6:30 tonight we went there for dinner. And very glad we did. My baby back ribs with the sweet sauce was delicious. My husband loved his meal, as well—St. Louis ribs and beef brisket. Our meals came with cornbread and two sides. We both loved the coleslaw.Definitely plan to go again.

Another great find while we were out cruising on the bike Saturday afternoon. My husband and I both had the pulled pork with chips and onion rings and the food was great especially for the price. The sauces were delicious and so was the Coleslaw that had a nice little tang. Unfortunately we don't live that close or we would pop in for taco Tuesday and trivia on Wednesday. The outdoor tented area is also really nice to sit out in the open air.
