Tuskers is truly a hidden gem. If you didn’t know about it, you’d easily pass by without a second thought. They do not have a sign out front and the building has tinted windows. But once you step inside, you’re greeted with an intimate, lounge-like atmosphere perfect for a cozy date night or a low-key evening with friends.
The vibe is sophisticated but laid-back. The dim lighting, music, and plush seating make it a spot where you can easily unwind and enjoy a nice evening out.
I started with an Old Fashioned, and could tell it was made with quality ingredients and care.
The food was just as impressive. The crab dumplings, which I regrettably forgot to snap a photo of, were light and flavorful. For the entrees, we had the surf and turf sushi roll, which had shrimp inside and thinly-sliced steak on top with a slight kick of spice. This was recommended by the bartender. We also got a cheeseburger and fries. The burger was average and the fries were crispy, golden, and perfectly seasoned.
All in all, Tuskers is a spot I’d definitely return to and make sure everyone knows about. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a place to enjoy quality cocktails, well-plated food, and a chill, intimate atmosphere.

One of the most intimate lounges I’ve ever been to! Such a great vibe with unique dishes that have a southeast Asian flare. They have an amazing cocktail program as well. The staff was friendly and attentive during our time there. There aren’t many places like this in CT, let alone New London! A great spot for a date night or to come see the live music they offer on the weekends.

The vibes here are off the charts. My husband and I had such an amazing dinner Friday night in the dining room. Every single thing we ate and drank was ridiculous. Started with the wasabi cucumber wings (yeah just get them) and spring rolls. For dinner I got the coconut curry salmon and he got the burger. OMG I can not rave about this place more. Will 100% be back.

Not a bad place for a nice late night snack and a cocktail! Kitchen is open until 10pm, bar closes at 11.30pm. I’d prefer Mido Sushi near Mohegan sun but this was close to home. I had Surf n Turf roll. Just wish the steak had more of that nice grill flavor!

We went to the restaurant based on the reviews and the food was quite good. I ordered the veg thali. Half of it was served and then I was totally ignored while people who came after me were attended to. We had to flag waiters for every item that was to be served with the meal. It was a degrading and unpleasant experience.

We loved the comfy lounge atmosphere, the food, the cocktails, and the service at Tuskers. The KBB roll pictured was one of the best sushi rolls I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a lot of sushi!) It was so fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back!
