Sahadi's Hotties — Restaurant in New Britain

I started frequenting Sahadis when the owner started with a hotdog cart. I believe that was over 30+ years ago. Now his children are pretty much running the business and they are very user friendly and down to earth. They are good with getting you on and out with your order and the food is always tasty and the price point is reasonable. Although it all started with hotdogs, it has progressed over the years with a variety of other breakfast and lunch ideas. I love the names they come up with for their menu items, very creative. They are pretty much a breakfast and lunch spot but it works and most people know to get there before it's too late. It's a walk up location so your waiting at the counter or outside the establishment for your order. They do have outdoor picnic tables for dining. If you haven't eaten here or your craving a hotdog, burger, soup, cookie or more, don't walk, run and give them a try, you won't regret it! Oh yea, I've had breakfast and lunch either one...

I'll start by saying the staff were very nice. Service was prompt, unfortunately what I had wasn't good. I ordered the fried dough with marinara and a cannoli. The marinara on the fried dough was not fresh. It was dark in color, hard and clumpy. I would say to date I've had better fried dough from the local amusement park (Lake Compounce). The cannoli shell was very thin almost like a waffle cone and the filling had additional sweet garnish which i just ended up scraping off. The filling itself was decent but overall didn't match the price tag. I had been waiting some time to visit the place as my schedule didn't permit so in the past. Having finally gotten to try it, I was pretty disappointed...

Great little place! This is about as hometown as you can get. Super friendly service makes you want to come back for more. Crispy chicken sandwich rivaled the national chain next door. Nothing fancy about it, but you can tell it is freshly made. French fries could be described as perfect. Just the right amount of salt and crunchiness. Apple fritters were large and tasty. A bit too much oil and a tad soggy, but the size, flavor and apple pieces were right on. Less one star for the sogginess on the fritters and for too many bees around all the picnic tables while you try and eat. Overall a nice place for a quick bite, great service and...
