Hall's Restaurants

Nice price and great place to take grand kids. Plain and simple you wont be disappointed if you go according to your wallet and what's in it at the time lol. WHAT'S IN YOUR WALLET?

Quite good for the money. I live in fl and had to stop for one of my old favs, the Chicago burger.  It did not disapoint!

I have eaten in this restaurant over 100 times, all throughout my childhood and into my young adult life.  I've experienced breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even a little dessert here, as it was very close to my childhood home.  Reviewing this restaurant proved difficult - even though my knowledge is complete, it holds a certain sentimental or nostalgic feeling for me.

When Fort Wayne, Indiana enacted their ban on public smoking a few years ago, Hall's in New Haven was the beneficiary - as one of the last remaining safe havens for avid smokers, the air in this restaurant became even smokier (yes, it was possible).

The restaurant, covered from floor to ceiling in old dark wood, has a definite old, dank feel.  Best for breakfast, often the entire dining room is packed with elderly, Conservative, after-church Hoosiers, and you may find yourself waiting for a seat.  

The quaint restaurant makes good home style food, nothing fancy, just good eats in a home-town environment (even if that environment is a smokey one).  Dinner options range from burgers, Liver & Onions, and steaks, to the ever-delicious Turkey Manhattan (an open face turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy on top).  For the price, you can't beat the results.  That's not to say the food is fantastic, it is just VERY affordable.

If you're in the area, its worth trying once if you're looking to save a little money, but want to eat outside the home/hotel.  Don't come with high expectations, and you'll be satisfied, if not pleasantly surprised.
