Treva Two Ways

Treva opened a year ago on West Hartford Center's main strip.  I went past the restaurant in the morning and again at night.

So far I have not yet tried Treva.  I hear that it is good and it gets good ratings on Open Table, Yelp, TripAdvisor and other rating sites.  Knowing that the owner is a former chef at the Max restaurants -- my favorite local restaurant chain -- is the best recommendation.  Here is a link to a bunch of photos that ran on the Hartford Courant's website showing Treva's food and other stuff.

    The night shot is so pretty with the fairy lights Jack - I'm sure the food will be a treat!

    Love the "day and night" shots and I hope that on your next stroll you will be able to tell us about the food and ambiance.

    Bises,

    Good, locally owned restaurants deserve our support. Otherwise, we will homogenize our restaurant choices to chains.

    Your two photos show why I prefer evening photos of urban scenes. They seem to have more charm.

    You will have to give us your rating once you give it a try. It does look like it might be a good place to dine.

    The "before" and "after" of the day.
    I'm pulled to the night one- and I think you should go and review it for us.

    As others have commented, the evening shot looks quite inviting. I can't help but wonder, though, how much curb appeal it would have sans Christmas decorations.

    Great shots! I really love the night shot with the warm color and with the lovely Christmas wreaths and twinkling lights more visible! Looks like a great place to eat! Have a wonderful day, Jack!

    Great shots Jack. I am always driven to the night shots. But the day one looks very nice. I went through the photos of the food. You need to go try it and let us know.

    I am the odd person out - I like the white & red of the day shot although the lights look so pretty at night!

    It looks good on the outside. I would have to check out the inside.

    Those two photos clearly indicate how light affects photos. Nice shots!
