“I've been a regular at Nardelli's for a couple years and have never once had a bad meal. It's always phenomenal and service is always excellent as well. I've had half their menu and would recommend any of it, but in particular I'd recommend the shaved steak and cheese, the barbecue bacon chicken and the pulled pork sandwiches, as well as both their seafood salad and macaroni salad, and any of their parfaits and cheesecakes.“

“We dined here on Sunday evening for a special occasion. We live so close by but haven’t tried this place so we decided to give it a go.The restaurant is cozy and the host and staffs were nice.We each got two different special menu which were roasted duck with blueberry sauce($27.99) and tuna steak salad ($29.99).They tasted decent.. we both finished the dish. To be specific, the blueberry sauce was too sweet for my taste and it overpowered the whole dish. It tasted like a desert- infact, I tried with a piece of bread and it was exactly like blueberry jam.The tuna salad was cooked properly, my husband was satisfied with the quality of food but he needed more food after that as the portion was too small.Overall, I feel like the portion could have been bigger but I need to try their regular menu and see the portion if we ever go back there in the future as we needed more food badly later.“

“I hadn't been to Dolce since they enclosed the patio area. The food was excellent as ever and lunch was reasonable. Excellent fresh salads and my chicken parmigiana was excellent, a large portion of tender chicken with a nicely browned layer of quality cheeses. The sauce is not the overly sweet red sauce in so many -laces these days. It had a nice garlic flavor and was big enough for me to take half home. My friend equally enjoyed his sausage & ziti. A top notch tiramisu followed w cappuccino for both of us. Had a little trouble getting the waiters attention at times but he was competent and pleasant. Dolce is also quieter than some of its raucous competitors. Recommended.“

“We eat here about once a month, and the food is always fabulous. The father is in the kitchen cooking, and his sons are in the dining room serving. The sons are always very welcoming, helpful, and entertaining. We were there last Saturday for another great meal. I told Nori, I want to take my time and relax between courses, he said of course, no problem. We started with drinks from the bar. I ordered a Double Angels Envy bourbon, and Sue had a slightly dirty martini. The drinks were great pours. For an appetizer we both had the Cacio e Pepe, prepared table side. Nori always does a great job making the pasta, and it is very entertaining to watch him. Wow, so much flavor it just jumps off the fork. I think this is their best appetizer. We then moved to salad, which they also made a fresh Caesar salad table side. The fresh ingredients made right there, provides flavors which were amazing. I had some extra Anchovies on the side, Sue was happy with hers just as it was.For Dinner, I had the King Filet Mignon, which was like 13 ounces. Flavorful and tender. You didn’t even need a knife to cut it. I usually order a ribeye when I go out, but this steak always has more flavor than a ribeye, and cooked just how I asked, medium rare. This was a better steak than I have had a great steakhouse. Sue had the Chicken Scarpariello, which was spicy, tender, and flavorful. Another good choice. On other occasions I have had the twin Pork Chops (not sure if that was a special), and Veal Chop. Again, excellent. This time, we didn’t have desserts as we were too full, but other times we have had their desserts, and they are delicious.I would highly recommend this restaurant. Parking isn’t the easiest, but we have never had a problem and it is certainly worth it.“

“Food price / quality (value) rating 7.5. The atmosphere in the bar area is kind of 70's disco, but tasteful. A large bar , about 24 seats, surrounded by about 8 four seat tables. The two dining rooms are more formal. The menus are really cool, they are electronically backlit so that the pages light up for easy reading. They offer a wide variety of Italian dishes and several interesting specials. The wine prices were reasonable. They have about 8 or 10 draught beer choices, but half of them are too common. A bruschetta and fresh bread are included with dinner. I had the halibut special, which was good, but $45 was a little steep for the dish. The wife had the shrimp and scallops over risotto, which was good. Neither dish had anything unusual as far as flavors or presentation. The service completely fell apart towards the end of the meal, our waiter didn't check on us for about 20 minutes after finishing our entrees, and I had to ask three times for a draught beer list. I was going to have dessert and a cappuccino, but by the time we saw our waiter again, it was time to go home, so I skipped those. The bill was $135 for two entrees and four glasses of wine, which seemed a bit steep for what was received.“

Terra Italian • $$

“This past weekend, I ventured into Terra, nestled within the chic Hotel Zero Degrees in Danbury, Connecticut ?✨. This gem of a hotel houses an exceptional, upscale restaurant that boasts an extensive menu that will satisfy any food lover’s palate ?️.Our appetizers set the bar pretty high. First up was the crispy buffalo cauliflower, adorned with micro celery and a decadent gorgonzola sour cream ?️?. The cauliflower struck the perfect balance - crispy without being overly fried, bursting with flavors that scored a delicious 9/10 on my scale. Next, we savored the gnocchi al forno, a heavenly blend of porcini mushroom cream, nduja (pork), and lemon breadcrumbs ??. The mushrooms effortlessly won my heart, earning an easy 10/10.For our mains, we explored the hidden fjord salmon, accompanied by heirloom beans, Brussels sprouts, and a rich porcini and tomato sugo ??. While the sauce had a slightly off note, the salmon itself was impeccably cooked, meriting a 7/10. The 12 oz. C.A.B. strip steak, served with duck fat potatoes, mixed mushrooms, and sherry vinegar, was a carnivore’s delight, perfectly medium-rare with a sauce that was nothing short of amazing ??. And let’s not forget the special - fish tacos that were so delightful, I believe they deserve a permanent spot on the menu ?? 9/10.Dessert was a sweet finale with their strawberry shortcake in a cup and a luxurious chocolate cake with pistachio ice cream ???. Both desserts were a testament to indulgence, effortlessly meriting a 9/10 with their perfect pairings and depth of flavor.For those with a penchant for espresso martinis, Terra’s rendition, where the coffee taste is subtly masked, is an absolute must-try ☕?. Beyond the exquisite food, Terra’s vibrant ambiance and extensive drink selection make it a must-visit spot ??.Overall Scores:Food: 9/10 ?0 ?Ambiance: 8/10 ?Terra isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience worth indulging in. Whether you’re a foodie or just in search of a great spot to dine, Terra promises an unforgettable experience ✨“

“BEST EXPERIENCE!! PLEASE EAT HERE!! When I was 10 years old, I fell upon terrible misfortune and found myself homeless on the streets of Great Plain Road. An angel of a man, I believe he is the owner, answered my prayers and talked to me for about 20 min about the meaning of life and the mechanisms of our reality. I was STUNNED, and AFTER AN HOUR I FINALLY came to. Upon regaining consciousness, He proceeded to laugh and say “oh you’re hungry huh”. At this point he told me my pizza had 10 minutes left until it was ready. Had I requested a pizza? What was the purpose of my existence at this point, anyways? He ushered me into the platonic ideal of a pizza shop, and once arrived I asked what had been happening. The owner's wife greeted me, and did not attempt to assault me. The Saviour himself refused what little money I had on my person, and furnished to me a pizza beyond comprehension. Time distorted, and I found God. I have never had an experience like this at ANY restaurant or pizzeria or ANYWHERE. They were even willing to give me a permanent residence at their restaurant with unlimited pizzas for the rest of my life. THEY WERE VERY UNAGGRESSIVE AND THREATENED TO CALL ME THEIR SON. 5/5.Kid-friendliness: Y'all ready know.“

“Food and services are great. In my last order, I just received the incorrect salad dressing. It was still delicious, I just used my own dressing I have at home. If I didn't live on the opposite side of town, I would have gone back to get the correct dressing. Next time, I will double-check before leaving. Regardless, I still gave 5's because that's how great the food and services are. I've never had anything that I didn't like from here, and this is the first time I've received something incorrect. No big deal, I was still satisfied with everything!!!!!!!“
