It was a great experience. The waitress was great it was our 25th Anniversary she took pictures for us also and went out of her way to get the perfect shots. The food was great also you got a lot of good food for the price and the mixed drinks were perfectly mixed and chilled. Will definitely be coming back again and hope to have the same great waitress.

We had the best experience for our first visit to The Laurel on November 1st. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, and the food was unique and so delicious! Drinks were just as great. We visited on the occasion of my birthday, and staff presented us with complimentary bubbly and a birthday candle in an amazing chocolate cake. Thank you for serving such a wonderful and memorable birthday lunch! We’ll definitely be back to visit again.

This is becoming a favorite New Haven Restaurant. This time we went for Schnitzel Monday, one of their themed weeknights. You could order off the regular menu, but we wanted the veal schnitzel which was served with a tomato salad in a terrific dressing and a warm potato salad. The portion was huge, tender and perfectly cooked.
