“So glad we stopped here on our drive from NYC to Boston—it was absolutely worth it. The food was outstanding, and the service was both attentive and kind. The owner’s warmth and gratitude toward the community were truly heartwarming. It feels wonderful to support a small business run by people who give their all every day. I hope this becomes a little tradition for us every time we pass through.”

“I drove 2 and a half hours down I-95 from Boston to check this place out. I was pretty apprehensive about the whole thing, but it ended up being worth it as the small pizza was almost as big as the large. The pizza plus the orange juice ended up costing $13 and the employee that greeted me when I walked in was so sweet I wanted to give her a hug, though I made her a little nervous doing this. The combination of the pizza and the orange juice was perfect for the pill I had to take as well! My waiter Chris came and took my order with a clipboard and even let me eat and told me to have a bite while he got my review. He even had a full camera crew filming me while I did it, meaning I was going to end up being on TV! I might have gotten a little too horny with my review though, as I might of came off as a dishonest dirty person to him lol. He was so nice though I even offered him a slice of my pizza, but he politely declined. After I ate, I got a police escort to get the full story as there were about 14 cops that saw my review and wanted to know if I was serious about it. I told them this pizza was so great, that if I ever got married, it would be at this place where I would also sign the contract. I didn't get to go back to this place for about 30 months afterwards (no reason behind it) but I never forgot how great the food and experience was! My friend Sonny Derek Porter will tell you how great it is too! Totally recommend it to y'all! This pizza is worth going to prison for!”
“Visited SDW last week for lunch with a chef pal who has several restaurants overseas. When he is Stateside, he always searches for staple foods done right. Gary and the crew delivered on all fronts. My go-to is the New Englander, and it never disappoints. My buddy had the Chicagoan and loved it. We both got a burger as well, which was cooked perfectly and impressively juicy. We were both taken aback by the hand-cut fries with S&P. We commented on how hard it is to consistently turn out such high-quality, short-order potatoes, and Gary gave us a detailed rundown of their process. After a lengthy discussion, including the merits of whole-belly clams vs. strips, Gary even gave us an order of hand-battered onion rings to try, which were also stellar. Super Duper is the real deal, from the menu to the people!”
“I had the pleasure of dining at Esh Restaurant for the first time, and it was truly a delightful experience. The restaurant offers a wonderful Mediterranean menu in a beautifully decorated atmosphere. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly and received amazing service throughout our meal. The food was exceptional! Each dish was bursting with authentic flavors and made with fresh ingredients. I particulary loved the hummus & flatbread selections, branzino with sweet potatoes. The sparkling water & cocktails were delicious. The presentation was also impeccable, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. The ambiance of Esh is captivating, with intricate décor and cozy lighting that transports you to the Mediterranean feels. The attention to detail in every aspect of our visit, from the decor to the service, truly enhanced the dining experience. Overall, I highly recommend Esh Restaurant for anyone looking to savor delicious Mediterranean cuisine in a charming setting with top-notch service. I can't wait to return! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Excellent stop on our road trip. Everything we had - Mack burger, Santa Fe salad & rigatoni- was delicious. Service was super friendly and nice pour on the wine.”

“A really nice restaurant with a great vibe. They have outdoor, indoor and bar seating. We ordered several appetizers: octopus, calamari, fried smelts and some sort of feta cheese party. All of it was delicious. For our entrees I had the 20 oz. Robert served with mushrooms, we also had a beet salad as well as a Chicken kabob. The food was really good. The service was excellent as well. We will definitely come back to try other items”
“Catering Party @ Sally’s Apizza Fairfield On Saturday September 13, 2025, we celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary. The food, service and staff were phenomenal. We all know how great the pizza is, but the appetizers and salads were equally great. I can’t say enough about the wonderful servers, Dan and Brandon. There were efficient, kind, friendly and polite. They went out of their way to insure everyone was having a great time. The bartenders and other staff went a long way to help make everyone enjoy the party. I also want to thank the General Manager, James Layfield and the Catering Manager, Helen Blanchard for their exceptional service and hospitality. Sally’s Apizza @ Fairfield deserves a 5 star rating for making our event the success it was. Thanks so much”
“Il Pellicano has quickly become one of our favorite spots because of the delicious food and amazing service. I have a gluten allergy and I absolutely love that the pasta isn't the usual GF penne pasta. The GF cacio è pepe is made with your choice of garganelli (or spaghetti I believe) and it's absolutely drool worthy. People at my table who are not GF thought it was equally delicious, as it's perfectly made. Also, the menu has a nice variety for fellow GF people. Highly recommend for quality eats. Thank you to Cooy and Ozzy for making our dinner so special.”
“Once again last night you did not disappoint me. Food was great, Service was great, Drinks, well, Espresso Martini, I can drink them all night. I don't have a unpleasant thing to say. Was there with some friends of mine and their daughter who's back from school for a long weekend. No pictures of food, you know what your food looks like. Probably 50% cheaper than some of the restaurants a little further down the Post Rd in Fairfield Center that I drove by. I never feel rushed at your place. Thanks again for making a special night even more special.”
“Great food in a small cozy atmosphere where you feel so welcomed. Personal interactions with the staff make you feel like family. Lemon lava cake is to die for!!!”
“My wife and I just ate here on Saturday night and had a fantastic meal! We both ordered the scallop, shrimp and crabmeat pasta dish which was the special. The service was very friendly and beyond outstanding. Jerry makes terrific cocktails! Smaller place so it can be a bit noisy when some patrons talk loudly. Our only disappointment was the desert we ordered to go. It was this very small sour cherry tart with hardly any cherries and it was overpriced at $15. Otherwise I highly recommend this Mediterranean restaurant.”

“This is a nice rest stop McDonald's. The only reason I didn't give five stars for atmosphere is because let's be real how much atmosphere can you get at a rest stop? Other than that the food was up to par the service was good and fast so high marks from me. We stop at this rest area fairly often on our trips up and down the East Coast.”
“Incredible! Impeccable friendly service and outstanding food. If you don’t go to eat here you’re insane. Delicious menu, oversized plates and just the best ambiance. Go dressed up or down and you will be comfortable. We can’t wait to go back.”

“Perfect spot for a quick lunch! Our meal today was a sausage and peppers calzone, 2 meatballs, and sweet chicken with macaroni salad. Nothing was left on our plates. The marinara sauce was savory, flavorful and I wish I could get a jar to take back to Texas! Thank you!!!”
“T-Swirl Crepe in Fairfield is an absolute gem and definitely worth a visit if you’re a fan of boba tea and sweet treats!
We tried their Mango Milk Tea with Mango Jelly, and it was hands down one of the best boba teas we’ve ever had. The tea was rich, smooth, and had the perfect level of sweetness, while the mango jelly added a refreshing, fruity texture that made every sip delightful. Truly one of the best drinks I’ve ever tasted!
We also treated ourselves to the Strawberry Nutella Crepe with Strawberry Gelato, and it was just as amazing. The crepe was thin, soft, and perfectly made, filled with fresh strawberries and Nutella, and topped with a creamy scoop of strawberry gelato. It was like dessert heaven in every bite!
The ambiance is clean and modern, and the service was friendly and fast. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick boba or indulging in a sweet crepe, T-Swirl Crepe delivers on flavor and quality.
Highly recommended for boba lovers and anyone with a sweet tooth!”

“Had my future daughter in laws bridal shower this past weekend and had Layla cater the event. Layla went above and beyond for this event. The food was phenomenal! Everything was so fresh and absolutely delicious! Layla thank you so much for everything. Akram, you assisted me with total respect and kindness. I took some menus and everyone took one and complimented the food. They absolutely loved and really enjoyed all of it. Layla, can't wait for the wedding.”
“Absolutely incredible. Some of the best Italian food on the east coast. An absolute gem. Authentic Italian food expertly prepared. The pizza is unbelievable and the chicken scarpariello is the best I have ever had. Go experience for yourself. Worth every penny.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Family Flamez is the GOAT. I live in Philly now and have tried to find other restaurants that make a better oxtail and it’s no comparison. This is the best Jamaican place on the eastern seaboard. When you’re here you’re family. Give them your money now! It’s not too spicy it’s called flavor. The meat is fall off the bone. Fried chicken is mind blowing, portions are plentiful. There is an Artist at work in that kitchen and we should all bow down. Period.”
“Today was my first time stopping in, and I enjoyed the Orange Power Smoothie which was refreshing and delicious! my friend enjoyed the Booster Smoothie. It was pretty hopping for a Saturday afternoon which was great, and it's important to support small local businesses and eateries these days. very thankful for the outdoor seating which worked out beautifully as today was a gorgeous day! I will be stopping in again sometime soon!🌞”
“Love this unique place. The music was great, the cocktails were great, and the service outstanding. I had the lavender martini and it wasn’t too sweet which I love. I also had the charcuterie board which was okay.”
“Absolutely love this place! Staff is genuinely some of the nicest people and their tonkotsu ramen is my favorite because of the sweet corn broth. Come up to Fairfield just for it! Pork baos are a good runner up too! Honestly have nothing to complain about. Awesome food and awesome service :)”
Cheap Eats
“Although you can place your order via Google Maps, we chose to just go there & order. They're so fast (under 10 minutes) this is a viable option. There is a single table there but I'd say this place is takeout only. It's tiny inside but it's plenty big enough to order/pickup.”
“As an African American gay woman, in a predominantly white town. I came into this diner expecting the worst. I was met with the complete opposite. The servers were super kind and talkative , the atmosphere was home like, the cook was quick and the food tasted amazing! We waited less than 5 mins for all our food ! We spend 53$-60$ with tip, which isnt bad for what we got ! The grilled cheese was so perfect , I got seconds !”
“Once again, the designer Marlene, did another excellent cake decoration. This is my second cake with Chaves Bakery, and once again I highly recommend them for anyone looking a beautiful and delicious cake. I thank you Marlene for your service, by the way the Red Velvet cake was delicious. Good Job once again.”
“So good, best Penne Alla Vodka I’ve had in CT. Also great service and super fast. Had a great experience!”
“Good service. Friendly staff. The food was amazing. It was delicious and freshly made. It did not disappoint. The restaurant was spotless and atmosphere was very pleasant. Will be coming back soon. Best Italian spot in Fairfield.”
“Good burgers at a reasonable price. And grey service too! Would highly recommend.”
“Great place for dining and drinks, especially when you compare it to the other establishments in the area. The best quality is the service, which is surprisingly pristine considering how busy this place gets, especially during happy hour. The place can be packed to the brim with people, and you will still get served quickly without diminishing the quality of the food/drinks. You can watch the bartenders make the drinks in front of you, and they serve you within minutes without cutting corners, before moving onto the next person. I’ve seen places half as busy, take twice as long to serve their patrons.”

“what a delightful experience we had this evening! from the moment Pizza Palace politely answered the phone when I called, to the wonderful and thorough recommendations given to me when I asked about the menu, I was thrilled I called this local fine eatery. my gosh, the food! I highly recommend anything they make but the pizza and calzone we ordered were prepared to perfection. oh and the homemade sauce for the calzone was Devine! I for one am glad we had a Pizza Palace Day!! gratefully, mrs. dobeck Fairfield, ct”

“I recently hosted a surprise baby shower for my wife at the Indian Spice Club in Fairfield, and we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful experience. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect.
The food was incredibly tasty and authentic Indian cuisine. Our guests raved about every dish, and the fresh, hot naan served directly at the table was a definite highlight. The drinks were also excellent and complemented the meal beautifully.
Coordinating with Sharath made the whole process so easy. He was very accommodating, prompt, and quick to respond to every request and question I had, which was especially important while planning a surprise. He also gave us access to a private room in advance for decorations, which allowed us to set everything up beautifully for about 65 guests, including kids and family members.
The Spice Club Indian Kitchen provided a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and their attention to detail and service helped make the surprise a huge success. I highly recommend them for any special occasion, especially if you’re looking for delicious Indian food and an accommodating venue. Thank you, Indian Spice Club and Sharath, for making our baby shower so memorable!”

“The deli in the Old Post Market puts out some amazing sandwiches, that's what Guilfort Grimsly from the Radio City Bar there on Peabody road tells me every time I go there for a beer. He's always pumping up the place, so I asked him if he's getting a kickback from the place..he isn't but he smiled like he could have been. Well, I finally went to the Old Post Market, and got a couple of amazing sandwiches. 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆”
“This restaurant has been open in my town a couple of years but we had not gone as the food is outside most of my families comfort zone. We went tonight and the food is excellent and the service was great. As a guy who spent a lot of time in Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic for work they had a lot of my favorites. We had Ceviche the was excellent and our mains of beef and pork with sides such as sweet plantains were terrific. Highly recommend and I will be going back.”
“The customer service here is always great. The food is always nice and hot. Except for today when I arrived at curbside and everyone else who arrived after me got their food first… I was waiting for 35 minutes… when typically it’s 5-10 min… based off the app, it says 5-10min. The only person who checked on me was Rianna. She made my meal again & exceeded my expectations… literally upgraded my entire meal. BIG SHOUTOUT TO Rianna! ( I’m sorry if I’m misspelling it).”
“Had excellent takeout boneless chicken tikka, vegetable steamed momo (dumplings) and jhaneko dal. Peshwari naan was out of this world -- tender with a nice chew and beautiful aroma, stuffed with raisin and cherry.”
