Soft undercooked aranchini, cacio e pepe without enough of either and using the wrong pasta, bucatini instead of spaghetti. Underwhelming.

A don't miss. The freshest food and best sauces. Lots of variety. Great atmosphere and service. Well paced. We all loved our meals and had something different. Salad, chicken parm, eggplant rollatini, and salmon. Enough for lunch the next day, too. Would have loved to try dessert, but we were stuffed. Highly recommend. One of the area's greatest gems.

The food was very good and our waiter was very nice, made us really good drinks. I however was not a fan of the owner coming out and pressuring me to tip. I had already spent $50 for 2 sandwiches and a couple of drinks on the food combined. I understand tipping but it's not mandatory. I was also unaware that the sides were not included with the sandwichs and paid $3 each for the equivalent of one small bag of chips and a tiny salad. I had a very great time untill this happened.

My husband and I chose Stix n Stones Marketplace for our rehearsal dinner and wedding welcome party. We are thrilled with our decision! The staff is attentive and kind, especially the bar staff. Our every need was catered to. The food was delicious, especially the chicken parm and desserts. The interior space, while cozy, is very cute. The outdoor space is more expansive and truly lovely and worked perfectly for the size of our welcome party. Stix n Stones will take care of you no matter the occasion. We love Stix n Stones and cannot wait to go back. Thank you all for making our rehearsal dinner and welcome party unforgettable!

Incredible food, lovely staff, funky cool spot. Its a market, an Italian restaurant and a flower shop. I’ve been working my way thru the menu and wow. The eggplant rolatini is out of this world.

We just went tonight. Everything was delicious! Love the outdoor seating. Waitress was awesome and knowledgeable. And once again, the food was amazing. Calamari was cooked perfect. Saltimbocca and Chicken Marsala were outstanding! I can't wait to go back! Thank you!

Stix n Stones catered the Rehearsal Dinner for my daughter's wedding and I couldn't have been happier. The food was spot on time to pick up and piping hot. They loaded my car for me and I was on my way within 3 to 4 minutes - a godsend given the crazy last minute time crunch that weddings like to inflict on people.
The food was all delicious and in greater quantity than I expected. We had a wonderful, peaceful gathering that seamlessly took all the work out of my hands. Definitely a great way to go to relax before wedding day with friends and family.

Stopped in for a snack and walked out with luxury food, a brownie to die for and a salted chocolate chip cookie that was still soft!! We got a hibiscus rose soda and Aranciata to wash it all down, we fancy like that lol

Definitely hidden gem! Not only is it a small market but it also has a dine in restaurant with a summer time bonus outdoor patio. The food is amazing (had lunch and stopped at a different date for dinner) and definitely NOT what you are expecting based on the exterior of the building! Beer and wine available along with delicious desserts. Our servers were very attentive and informative on the menu with recommendations that definitely did not disappoint. (Menu's are in my photos) Owners definitely need to put a sign at the street that stands out and is legible! So many missed opportunities for people to stop in with the current sign.

Yeah, Sal is the man! Chicken Penne Alfredo for the win! Soo delicious. Pasta was cooked to perfection, chicken tender and the Alfredo sauce was on point! Fantastic meal!

Are in Cafe today. Family weekend at UCONN. We were told there would be a bit of a wait when we got there. Waited an hour for food. Food was mediocre, not worth an hour wait. Owner never came over to apologize for wait. Won’t be going back
