“This is my second time ordering catered trays of food from here and it has been above satisfactory! For our Christmas gathering we got two large trays of chicken marsala & eggplant rollatini which were phenomenal. The amount of food was incredible for the price! We were able to feed our party of 10 plus leftovers for everyone. Added plus was the incredible garlic knots! Thank you to the staff for going above and beyond!“
“Recently held a conference in this hotel and the entire staff at this hotel made it amazing! From the delicious catering to the rooms and amenities, we had a fantastic experience! Dinner at Tony’s was incredible and it was even more amazing when Tony came and played a trivia game with all of us! The laughter and fun we had was just what we needed and it really was fantastic! I received nothing but amazing feedback and I truly cannot thank the staff enough! If I could give you more than 5 stars, I would!!! Thank you!!!“
“The food was amazing as usual. And the service is excellent!!Vegetarian options: There are pasta options, salads, and apps that are vegetarian. Also gluten-free optionsDietary restrictions: They can prepare things to specifications.Parking: They have a limited number of parking spaces. But the food is worth parking elsewhere and walking.“
“Wonderful Family owned ristorante. Menu is exquisite with choices for all tastes and palettes. Sizable portions and attentive staff leave you with a satiating experience. I further recommend the desserts and Lemon Basil Martini! :)“
“I love this restaurant. The staff are amazing and the food is delicious. The only thing I can mention is that they can change the music. The first time I went there, they were playing the 80s hits, it was so much fun! The staff and the gusts were dancing and having a good time. I think this was a better choice for the music. But overall, a great place!?? highly recommended.“
“My favorite restaurant in Stamford! I come here frequently with friends and the food is always delicious. Drinks, food, & vibes are great. We love Alejandro! Definitely worth the visit.Dietary restrictions: Very accommodating for gluten free and dairy free guests“

“What a wonderful first time experience last night was. The sirloin steak, the apps, sides were all perfection. I just moved to the town from the West Village and can honestly say the food is better here. And lastly, look at their wines by the glass: Caymus, Antinori. Shows you how much they care about service and their clients.“
“I started going to Amore a couple years ago. When we parked it looked very quaint , We walked in and it was like stepping into little Italy the staff will go up and above to make u meal fantastic. There us a area to sit outside when its warm and its so nice in doing so I would recommend it. My family has also spent many holidays here and the atmosphere and food is amazing as always but u need not just go for a Holiday any day is fantastic at Amore. Now the main reason for going here is the food is out of this world just like my nana and mom cooked and how I do so. As in the name Amore we love u food and reservations are highly recommended ??“
“They have amazing lobster raviolis (despite only giving 5-6 raviolis, it’s still worth it).Their chicken parm is amazing (great portions given for this dish).My partner had lamb chop sticks and he loved them as well as the meatballs; I had calamari and it was great.“
“Incredible food, fast service, convenient location, and friendly owner and staff. What more would you want? Have been to this place several times and every dish is superb. The portions are large and you'll probably want to get a doggie bag to go.“
“Food and service were great. Place was very busy on a Saturday night. Plenty of parking. We had calamari, burrata, and meatballs for appetizers; linguini, veal, chicken and gnocchi main course. Food was delicious. I will recommend going.At times, it got very noisy.“
“The food was very good. We had a reservation for six people. Our table was comfortable. The service was good but from the second we sat down, every single server who came to our table was trying to rushing us through. The server who was taking our order came by three times, within minutes even, though we told him we needed some time. We finally had to tell another server that we are not in a hurry and we would like to please not be rushed through our meal and out the door. After that, we were able to enjoy our time and our food and drinks.“
“We have been to wonderful Italian restaurant twice this far. Once when my wife and I went out for Valentines date and most recently for my daughter's 22nd birthday. The food is very delicious, the 0 service was superb and atmosphere was great. On top of that, the owner Dean was in the front to greet us entering and leaving his restaurant.“
“Wonderful place! Everything about our visit was excellent. We were greeted by friendly staff and were seated quickly. The restaurant was clean and decorated for the season (Valentine's Day). We ordered our appetizers: pasta fagioli and Caesar salad and were not disappointed. For an entree we had broccoli rabe pizza which the chef modified for our vegetarian diet. It was delicious. The crust was thin and had the right amount of crunch. The rabe was the right amount of garlicky. We should have each ordered our own! And dessert! Who knew that vanilla ice cream dowsed in good, hot espresso could be so sublime. The homemade Limoncello shot, rounded off a lovely lunch. We have been to Bari before and will return every chance we get. Big Mike, Johnny and the staff bring southern Italy to Stamford. No passport needed.Maria and MarkRhode IslandVegetarian options: The chef modified for us.“
“Been a loyal customer since the Califano’s ran Stamford Pizzeria. The food has always been fantastic, staff is friendly and helpful, and you always feel like home when you’re there. I try to have something new every time I come but I tend to always go back to my favorites, chicken parm dinner, grilled chicken salad, chicken Italian with red peppers and broccoli rabbe.Parking can sometimes be a challenge but that’s because this place has found a new beloved home in Darien and everyone wants their food. Be patient or do pick up so that you get the best of both worlds.“
“BIG fan of this place! While there’s plenty of pizza options in Stamford you HAVE to try some of the specials! The chicken scarpiello pizza is unlike anything I’ve ever had. The service is FANTASTIC. We had a small wine spill and they offered to switch tables for us. Prices very reasonable. Don’t let the white tablecloths fool you, feel free to dress up or dress down. Will be back!“
“It was Valentine's Day so our expectations were not high. It turned out the service was very good and so was the food. No long wait. Only issue was being seated near the door with the cold air constantly blowing in at us. We would go back again in a heartbeat and just sit somewhere else.“
“This restaurant never fails to impress. Constantly exceptional service and delicious food! They recently helped us surprise my sister on her birthday with incredible hospitality. Their thoughtful gestures and tasty menu make every visit a delight. Highly recommend for both their fantastic food and outstanding service?“
“the atmosphere was amazing, the staff was pleasant and very personable, the food was delicious and desert the chocolate bomb I believe that's the name was the perfect ending to a wonderful service also the waitress helped me pick out a non-alcoholic drink cucumber something I'm horrible with names that's why I haven't mentioned theirs because they definitely gave it I'm just horrible with remembering anyway....if you're in Stamford area go there you'll meet them tell them Emma sent you you won't regret it I live in New Jersey and will go back“
“Amazing homemade pasta! Chicken cutlet to die for! Even the simple Arugula Salad is so delicious! Service was super friendly. Chef came over and chatted with us - great guy! We have eaten there several times now and always top notch food.Gave 4 for atmosphere as a bit loud when we got there, but calmed down significantly.“
“Oh, Napoletana! I've been there a few times and I have to say, it's absolutely amazing! The food is incredibly delicious, and the flavors are so authentic. Every dish I've tried has been a burst of flavor in my mouth. ??Not only is the food top-notch, but the service is also exceptional. The staff is friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with a smile. They make you feel welcomed and ensure that you have a great dining experience.One thing I really appreciate about Napoletana is how clean and well-maintained the place is. It's evident that they take pride in their establishment and pay attention to every detail. It creates a pleasant and inviting atmosphere for guests.If you're looking for a restaurant with great food, delicious flavors, friendly service, and a clean environment, Napoletana is definitely the place to go! I highly recommend it. Enjoy your meal, Samuel! ?️?“
“Great dinner. The food was amazing (Spicy penne vodka, Halibut, burrata and Tiramisu). I'm a bit of a burrata and Tiramisu snob and both were the best I've had in a long time.Service was top notch.Super cute restaurant. If you haven't been, this place is a must. We were very pleasantly surprised.PS The wines were great as well.“
“Wow, so delicious. Packed on a Saturday night, and it's not just because of the ambiance. The food was quick and delicious. I had the bucatini with zucchini and it was so special; savory and rich without feeling heavy. The cocktail list is small but the tequila mule was pretty good. We ordered a ton of food - three appetizers, two mains, two desserts, a cocktail, sparkling water and one soda and the bill came to just under $200 which felt really reasonable. My jeans feel tight and that is fine for me because it was worth every calorie.“
“Fairfield Pizza’s Cos Cob location has a sublimely friendly and service oriented staff. They want you to be made happy by enjoying their food and it shows. The cheese pizza in A-MAZE! when enjoyed immediately following preparation. It also makes for a good super-fast school lunch the next day. The pricing is competitive and the selection is wide. I recommend Fairfield Pizza at Cos Cob to all pizza lovers.“
“Great food for the money. I have found myself going back to try more and more items finding them all to be great and that’s why bc the place is always busy. Free parking make carrying out easy and convenient to stop at for lunch. Try 39 and grilled chicken with marinara on a wedge!Parking: In back or along side easy peasy !!“
“I absolutely LOVE coming here. First of all- I am a born and raised New Yorker and finding Pizza by the slice comparable to what I have grown up on is impossible. THIS PLACE GETS IT! I come for pizza slices during my lunch break and have also come for dinner trying their variety of pasta. I have yet to be disappointed. The chicken Scarpariello is my favvvv. 10/10. The customer service is always personable and that’s so important.“
“I’ve always walked past this place and today I decided to stop by with my partner for Happy Hour. It was one of the best experiences we have had in Stamford yet. The bartender, Branling, recommended food to try and he made us some of the best drinks I have had I had to order a couple more (old fashion and Italian 75) because he truly made them like no other. I can’t wait to come back and try their dinner menu and many more items because of the amazing experience I had this afternoon!“
“Stopped in here with my wife today. It was 3:30 on Friday, we were the only ones in there, as we expected at that time. It was nice to see a family run restaurant. The owner was the chef, his wife and daughter the servers. Food was really good. We started with the guacamole and we ordered the mussels. The chef came out and said the mussels came in a little small today and asked if we would like the clams instead. We said why not. The broth in this clam dish was fantastic. Then he came back out and asked if we want to try his carrot soup. One of the best soups I've literally ever had. Then we finished with steak fajitas and the flautas. Both great dishes. They were really friendly and nice people. We really appreciated their service and kindness. Also don't forget to get the red sangria it's amazing.“
“Papa Joe’s is an excellent southern Italian restaurant. Very good food, a nice wine list and reasonably priced.Kid-friendliness: The staff is very kind and patient. This is very much a family restaurant which young, middle and older clients frequent.Wheelchair accessibility: Restaurant is on one level and easily accessed from sidewalk.“
“Had such a lovely dinner at Emilio’s! We’ve ordered takeout before (and it’s great), but it was our first time dining in.Antipasti and salumi are fresh, and we loved the steak frites. Servers are great. But best of all is Sergio, who’s a hoot and shared the best stories. Can’t wait to go back.“
“True pizza spot in Stamford flavorful slices gourmet slices are $5. White slice is very tasty. Crust is light flaky airy crisp with a good char and more flavor than Slice. Overall place continues to impress. Have done vodka chicken Parm hero / wedge before and didn't disappoint.“
“If the calamari was not so chewy, I would have given 5 stars. However, the spaghetti carbonara was superb, and, done right, without the cream! Just the right amount of bacon and not overly salted.The salmon was cooked to perfection. It could have used a little less sauce, but the flavor of the salmon did shine through. The service was excellent. All of the servers were attentive and friendly.An excellent experience overall. Keep up the good work. ??“
“After hearing rave reviews about Il Pastaficio, my family and I finally decided to give it a try for dinner last night. Nestled in a cozy corner of Cos Cob, this unassuming hole-in-the-wall establishment exceeded all our expectations.From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality by the staff, particularly Timothy, who provided exceptional service throughout our meal. The ambiance was inviting, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience.Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the pasta. Il Pastaficio undoubtedly boasts some of the freshest, most flavorful pasta on the East Coast. Each bite of the Linguine Al Sugo Di Pesce was a revelation, perfectly cooked to al dente perfection and bursting with the flavors of the sea. My wife indulged in the decadent Lasagna Tartufo, while my son devoured his Kids Pasta with tomato sauce, both of them thoroughly enjoying their meals.What sets Il Pastaficio apart is its commitment to authenticity. With every bite, you're transported to the heart of Italy, thanks to the genuine flavors and expertly crafted dishes. It's like taking a culinary journey without ever leaving your seat.In conclusion, Il Pastaficio is a must-visit for pasta lovers and aficionados of authentic Italian cuisine. If I could, I'd give this place six stars for its outstanding food, friendly staff, and the ability to capture the essence of Italy in every dish. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and experience the magic of Il Pastaficio firsthand. You won't be disappointed.Parking: 30“
“Stamford Hospital crew orders from here all the time and food is always great. Today besides sending amazing food these guys helped with our tiny budget and feed ICU staff. THANK YOU Arcuris and Jammie for stepping up in such a difficult time for all of us ❤❤❤“
“We visited again last night for the first time since pandemia, and WOW!!!!! The place was super busy, and that did not keep us from enjoying a super delicious meal with superb service. Food was perfect! The Tiramisu amazing! Joseph told us they have implemented a few new things and everything seems to be working beautifully! Even the valet parking guy was super nice! We’ll make sure to come back to enjoy a beautiful dinner soon!“
“I moved here from Long Island and haven’t really been able to find a deli comparable to the ones there. I was so surprised with this place I called right after I ate my sandwich to let them know how good it was. Sliced thin cold cuts and fresh bread! Finally a place that knows how to do it right in this area! Highly recommend. Such a gem!“
“If you're a fan of quality New Haven style pizza (apizza?) RP is for you. I got the Wooster Street pizza and ordered with pepperoni and mushrooms. Well done. Great sauce and crust and naturally that's the foundation of a quality pie. The roasted mushrooms were fresh and pepperoni was generous but not overkill. Strips of fresh basil made the difference. Even in the box it smelled so amazing it made the 5 min drive home seem like an hour! Rowayton Pizza will be my standard Friday night fare.“
“As a regular diner at Applausi, I can confidently say that if you want a great Italian meal and service, you can't miss with this restaurant. The food is authentic, the pasta is homemade , and the drinks are generous. Desserts are also delicious.“
“Came back a week later to bring my husband he was super impressed. He's a hard one to please as he is really picky about his chicken parm, but he did LOVE it! I already was blown away by the food, and we haven't even had dessert yet. Ready to come back for more!“
“Small Italian restaurant away from center of town. Set in a residential neighborhood. Very good Italian cuisine. I had the eggplant parmigiana which was extraordinary. Very good stuffed clams. Large menu with all the standard Italian fare plus daily specials. Very good service, casual atmosphere with a bar area too.“
“Was looking for a pizza place in town that had wood fire pizza ovens with thicker crust. This place is awesome! The pizza was delicious, we had the mushroom pizza (New England) I think? And then we had the fried calamari and the crispy cauliflower, which was my favorite! It's not a huge restaurant though, it's smaller but they do have a patio as well. The service was friendly and quick. We will definitely come back again when we are in town!“
“Outstanding dinner experience!!! Saturday night was very busy, so we headed at the bar for a couple of drinks until our table got ready. Excellent service, very welcoming, Amazing food!!! Louie's is definitely back at the top of our list!“
“FANTASTIC PIZZA. EVEN BETTER SERVICE. I don’t normally write reviews, but these guys absolutely deserve one. I can’t believe I’ve been missing out on Pizza Piazza my whole life, I’ve lived in the area for 20+ years, and now I wish I could have those 20 years back. If only there were more spots like this around that truly cared about the quality of their food, and the experience of their customers. The gentlemen behind the counter made me feel like ive been one of their most loyal customers for years. I will be returning to try more items from their menu very soon! Or I might just get more pizza since it was that good!“
“I’m in town for a business trip and was really craving Italian food! Saw the reviews for ZaZa! And let me tell you from the moment I walked in it was too class service. Water continuously filled never empty. I got the spaghetti and spicy meatball. And these I will dream about until I return! They were hands down some of the best meatballs I've ever tasted!!! And we got a pizza brought over by the owner. The place had a Sunday Italian family dinner feel not a stuffy restaurant feel at all! I cant wait to come back!“
“I was very surprised to see only a few stars! This is great pizza, we get it every week. And their chicken tenders, Calzones, chicken parm dinner, etc. are exceptional, better than some restaurants, and far better than another nearby pizza place. It's well run and very clean, they are very friendly and appreciative of your business, and they take pride in their product.“
“Had lunch with a buddy here recently. Old school place. Spots like this are a dying breed. We started with shrimp, scungilli, and the arugula salad. The shrimp was disappointing, I would not order again. Buddy had the lasagna which he destroyed, huge portion. I had the blacked salmon special which was very good, nice filet. The broccoli rabe was great, lots of garlic. Looking forward to my next visit.“
“BLACKOUT BRUNCH WAS INCREDIBLE! Best place to have an amazing time with amazing friends! This is my second brunch party with them and they do not disappoint! Food and service is above and beyond! This place has become my home away from home! <3“
“Staff was very attentive, appetizers were excellent, dinner was excellent, dessert was excellent. Halibut, Steak, baked clams, prosciutto, apple pie, orange sorbet.The only negative thing i have to say is that it was very loud inside with all the other customers conversating, it didn't bother my wife and I.“
“The Staff is excellent from the valets to the maître d', waiters and helpers and restroom attendant. Nice wine selection and knowledgeable waiters. The Chef must love their job because each plate is served beautifully presented and delicious, whether it’s caviar and all the trimmings or oysters or their beautiful salads. I opted for the amazing zucchini flowers which were a special tonight rather than a salad. They were phenomenal and rivaled the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve had a lot! (Italian grandma, enough said) I did have salad envy when I saw the other plates at our table. My dinner was a chicken, shrimp and veg dish, delicious. Dessert? Don’t skip it, even if you share it. Get two. Life is short. The Napoleon is light and exquisite and not your average Napoleon. The tiramisu is delicate and moist and delicious. Thank you for a lovely evening. I’ll be back.“
