“My friend recently posted about this new Mexican restaurant on Post Road in Fairfield, and the food looked so good I had to check it out. When I saw they already had a 4.8 rating on Google, I figured it was worth a try— and it absolutely was.
I’m not a huge Mexican food person, but I do love a good taco. The restaurant is cozy, intimate, and very clean, and the owner, Carlos, was incredibly nice and made sure we were well taken care of.
We ordered the queso fundido and crunchy tacos, and my husband had the birria tacos. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the fresh-squeezed juices were SO good. The portions are generous too— we had plenty to take home.
Such a great little addition to Fairfield. 10/10 recommend.”
“amazing stunning and the best Mexican food in town. the service was incredible, the owner extremely nice, the decoration was beautiful and well put together. I give this place 10 stars for being my newest hot spot. this place is fantastic 👏 👌 🙌 😍 😀 ❤️”
“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.”
“Absolutely my favorite restaurant around. Food is always on point and service is always incredible. My fav! And don’t forget to check out there desserts!”

“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 :)”
“One of the best meals I’ve had, cooked to perfection. The homemade pasta and sauce was delicious. So many other delicious dishes on the menu to try. Waitstaff were very pleasant and Sonia and family made us feel welcome. Atmosphere is warm and inviting. Can’t wait to go back!”

“Absolutely love the food here! We do take out for all of our guests and every single one of them savored the chicken. Will keep coming back. The staff is also absolutely great. They have treated us with great care, made us feel special. The only downside is dine in place is very small.”
“we love this restaurant!! Have been here many times and we will continue to come! Great food, Spirits, and the friendliest and most courteous employees in Fairfield County!!”
“Honestly this is a go to for my family! We love it!! They are so attentive, helpful and everything is always DELICIOUS! We have never had an issue with anything and have tried so much off the belt. They are always adding more food there for people to try, and have answered any questions on what is what. This is a hidden gem!”

“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!”
“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! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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”

“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.”

“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.”
“It's good food and fish but over priced. I got Omakase for 60 dollars and small portion and no sashimi 9 small pieces of sushi soup and salad. No tworth 60 dollars”

“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.”
“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!”

“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!!!”
“I visited this crepe shop looking for their famous Bubble Waffles, and I left absolutely delighted. Unfortunately, they didn’t have the waffles available that day, but what we ended up trying was even better than expected.
My niece and I ordered two different crepes—the Dubai Chocolate and another flavor that I believe was Number 8 on the menu. Both were incredibly delicious, and by the time we finished, we were already talking about coming back to try more flavors.
It was one of those moments when you go looking for one thing but end up discovering something even better. The crepes were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared, making the experience a pleasant surprise.
Overall, we had a wonderful visit and left completely satisfied. I would definitely return and highly recommend this place to anyone with a sweet tooth.”
“Always liked this place. I love their Jack Black burger. Always cooked to perfection-medium rare. I saw they had eggplant fries and they did not disappoint. The food is delicious and the service is great!”
“we've always dined in, GREAT wait staff, superior pizza, and cream soda? hooked!”
“We had a great time here. This place set a high bar for what a sports bar could be. It was spacious, with plenty of TVs and entertainment, including foosball, billiards, arcade games, and more. The comfortable seating made it easy to relax, watch a game, or spend time with a group.
The beer selection was extensive, although the cocktail list was fairly limited. We especially loved the impressive row of taps behind the bar, which immediately put us in the right mood.
What truly stood out was the incredibly friendly and helpful service. The staff made our day and created a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.
The biggest surprise was the food. For a sports bar, the menu was impressively varied, with plenty of options for everyone, including an excellent vegetarian selection. The absolute standout was the Hot Honey Crunch Cauliflower. It was phenomenal, perfectly crispy, and served with a fantastic spicy aioli. The falafel tacos were also creative, fresh, and very well executed. Even the classic favorites, including the chicken wings, loaded fries, and pretzels, were prepared with care and tasted great.”

“I wanted to write a review because I come here all the time and I am never disappointed! I like to switch up my order and get either the chocolate hazelnut (homemade) gelato or the moose tracks (also homemade) ice cream. You seriously can’t get delicious ice cream like this anywhere else.”
“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!🌞”
“I had a fantastic dining experience at this Chinese restaurant! Every dish was absolutely delicious, fresh, rich in flavour and expertly prepared. The menu offers an excellent selection, and all our orders arrived piping hot packed with authentic tastes.
The service was equally impressive. The staff were warm and attentive, checking in regularly to ensure we had everything we needed during our meal. The venue is tidy, comfortable and inviting, ideal for a leisurely meal with family or friends.
Overall, this spot is well worthy of a five-star rating. If you are searching for authentic Chinese cuisine paired with wonderful service, I highly recommend visiting. I will absolutely return!”
“I’ve been hearing about how good the pizza is here and it still exceeded my expectations. The cheese slice is right up there with the best slices in NYC and the margarita is delicious. Crisp crust, melty cheese and sweet sauce. Wow. We will be coming every week for Friday pizza night!”
“So good, best Penne Alla Vodka I’ve had in CT. Also great service and super fast. Had a great experience!”
“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.”

“Beautiful delicious tasting food!! So friendly and fast! I come here almost every week for a little lunch during work and the food is always so well cooked, prepared so fast, inexpensive and so so good! 🍲🍜 I love the egg rolls and the lunch specials. They have lunch specials everyday 11:00am to 4:00pm, i have attached the menu for that here so if anyone would like to see they can. I do wish they add some seating area maybe outside or something since there is no space inside, but it is very clean and organized. They always say 10 mins and it is ready in 10 minutes or less even with big orders! It is amazing how well and fast they all work. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ love this place!! Favorite Chinese restaurant ever!”
“What a hidden gem! Well worth the 1.8 miles off of I-95. Stopped here with my husband for breakfast while traveling. He had the 2 eggs with bacon and I had a short stack with bacon & eggs. I always order my eggs over hard and these were cooked to perfection! The bacon was thin and crispy...but not burned---absolutely perfect also. The staff was super friendly and attentive, and the diner had a cozy, retro vibe. Fantastic experience! Highly recommend.”
“Great food and very reasonbly priced which is super smart. In fact, very cheap for the great food and service—overall amazing food, service, music and ambiance.”
“Excelente comida y un servicio excepcional, el lugar es muy acogedor y el personal muy amable.”
“I went here for my birthday it was a great experience for the entire family and the pizza is amazing definitely recommend.”

“Had a wonderful experience at Blackstones Grille last night. Their newly designed outdoor patio space was so comfortable. I hosted a dinner for staff and we were fortunate to have Alexa as our waitress. She was attentive and promptly served us with exactly what we ordered. She even suggested a dessert idea of sampling tray of all the desserts on the menu which was a big hit!
Best is happy hours are all day Sunday and Monday with a wonderful menu at reasonable prices. Give it a try. You won’t be disappointed’n”
“Fabulous restaurant!! Went for a birthday and the food and staff were so amazing. From the moment we walked in to the wonderful personal thank you from several of the staff on our departure, these people were so warm and amazing! Great location across from the green where a band was playing added to the enjoyment of the evening. I give Il Pellicano the highest recommendation.. they have earned it!”

“Highly recommend this place! Not only do they offer delicious gluten-free ice cream options, but they also have gluten-free cones. The women who work here are absolutely lovely and very knowledgeable about which flavors are gluten-free, which makes ordering so much easier.
The ice cream is delicious—light, creamy, and made with fresh natural ingredients. Everything we tried was fantastic. Definitely worth a visit!”

“Great neighborhood spot doing a BEC that has crispy soft hash browns and a crisp fried egg. The hot sauce is a good medium, making their signature sandwich have a little extra flavor. I recommend the sandwich so that the egg shines; I suspect you don't want sausage for this one so the egg tastes better.”
“Business Shoutout! AGUSTO’S ITALIAN DELI catered a large party for my family on Saturday. They were super friendly and helped me every step of the way. They delivered & set up the food, providing chafing dishes and sternos. And the best part is that the food was DELICIOUS. I had multiple guests come up to me to tell me how SCRUMPTIOUS their dinner was. If you are having a party, give them a call 203-292-3360 Agusto’s is located at 1326 Post Road, next to the Wine & Cheese Spa.”
“I absolutely LOVE THIS LOCATION service 10 Food 10 ambience 10. If you are looking for good food great drinks and friendly staff who know how to treat ppl then this is the place.
