Modelo Bar & Grill

Easily a 9/10 restaurant. The food was amazing. Highly recommend garlic bread with the meat ravioli. The pink vodka sauce is just too good to waste. Portions for the ravioli is a bit small, but still definitely worth the price. Great job overall. Loved it and the atmosphere.

I'm not from the area and was super tired from travel and work. I sat at the bar and had the Best service. Perfect martini and great penne primavera. Much needed after a long day.

Easy parking right in front of the building. Just a couple of blocks away from Mohegan Sun Casino. We just happened to arrive during happy hour which was a lucky move on our part. The specialty martini's were half off ($6) so we each got the Margarita Martini and it was the cat's meow. Served in an ice filled shaker it was basically a good amount of tequila with just a splash of lime juice. It was "to die for" good. With our meals we ordered a couple of glasses of red house wine, ($5 happy hour) and the wine seemed like a cabernet mix, but it was also very good and they gave us a good amount. I ordered a large cheese pizza and all I can say is WOW! They serve a very thin crust oven fired pizza and I believe the crust was seasoned, and boy was it a great pizza, perfectly cooked with just the right amount of ingredients. They provide, red pepper and cheese shakers on the table. I usually prefer to also have oregano but with the seasoned crust I didn't really need it. My wife got the shrimp scampi which was also very good. Pasta tasted homemade and it was perfectly cooked. The scampi was served in a seasoned olive oil sauce with 4 jumbo shrimp which were also very good, (but for $29 they should serve it with more shrimp), but it was also a very nice flavorful meal. We also got a side of bread and it was interesting as the bread seemed like it was made the same way they make the pizza crust, never had a side of bread like it. If you like eating the crust of the pizza, (which I absolutely do), then you will enjoy it completely, especially with the table olive oil and condiments. While we visited in the afternoon and it was a bit slow, we loved the set up on the Modelo side of this restaurant. The bar is a complete oval with plenty of seating around it (like Cheers). They have a nice dance floor and even some outside seating. All in all this is a great place and I bet it get hopping on Friday and Saturday nights so beware. We will definitely make a return trip to Modelo's.

Stopped in again this past week and we were not disappointed. We got the Margarita Martini's and they are still the best drink out there. Ice cold goodness. We each got a special of Linguini with Scallops and my wife substituted for Shrimp. Both dishes were fantastic and they serve the best pasta I've ever had. Fresh and perfectly cooked. Once again this restaurant is definitely on my list of must visit's whenever we are in the area. You will not be disappointed.

One of the best pizzas I’ve had in a while! Visiting town to ghost hunt and decided to pick this up. I got the 4 cheese and added pepperoni and roasted garlic. Wish I’d gotten a larger one, as it was a hit with everyone!

This place is attached to Bella Fiori great for grabbing a late night snack on your way home after dancing and drinking

I’m new to town and this is One of my new favorite places to eat, drink, and relax.

One of me and my fiancés favorite place to go. Always the best service. The staff are so personable. Wonderful experience every time!

Came here with a friend and the service was OUTSTANDING. I have never been to a restaurant where I was treated this well. Every individual including the waiter and hostess were exceptionally kind to us. The food was also amazing, I got shrimp with my risotto and let me just say- it was well seasoned and so fresh. My friend got pasta primavera and it was also exceptional. This spot has become my top local restaurant. Definitely a hidden gem in the area.

This spot it’s amazing and great to go and have (SÚPER FUN) great food great staff friendly service and great NIGHT CLUB every Saturday night it’s damn good 🫢🔊🎶🎵🔞🚭🆘… 🪪ID is required in the entrance if you don’t have it on you, you will not be able to go in and have some fun, nothing else to say about this spot other than you will have a great great time there…

We had our daughter's wedding reception at Modelo/ Bella Fiore Restaurante. I can't say enough good things about our experience. The owner, Harvey, was in charge of the entire operation assisted by his 2 sons and a great staff. In this day and age of fast food and careless service, Harvey and his staff provided us with delicious food, caring and outstanding service, attention to detail, a lovely facility and great pricing. The facility was soacious, clean, well furnished and allowed us to decorate, bring in our own non-alcoholic bubbly for toasting as well as family special deserts. The DJ keep the reception on schedule and kept us dancing till late in the nite with great music and a wonderful light system. The bartender was attentive and kind and expert at their job. The chef was the best providing us with appetizers, salads, 5 choices of main course and an alternate desert...all so delicious!!! The staff served the bubbly and cake with finesse and unobtrusively. We also had our rehearsal dinner at Bella Fiore Restaurante. Once again excellent service, delicious food, beautiful atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant for ALL of your upcoming events. You will be impressed with this fine facility and Im sure you will go back again and again. I know that my family and I plan to make this the place for all of our special occasions! Thanks Harvey. You helped make my daughter's wedding so fabulous and memorable!
