33 Best Italian Restaurants in Stamford

“Went there for the first time today with my family for Father’s Day. The food and service was excellent! Would definitely go again!“

“I'm a true foodie who cooks at home so when I go out for dinner I select the restaurants carefully Based upon quality of food. This is my first review of a restaurant because it deserves my opinion. Last night at Sienas ( not my first time there) but the service and experience is worthy of commenting. Last night my husband and I dined and had the most delicious dinner. I ordered the special ( home made pasta with broccoli rabe and crumbled sausage. My husband had the tagliatelle with truffle with mushrooms in a cream sauce. The food was just top notch. The pasta was so fresh and would compare to any Top notch nyc Italian restaurant in my opinion. The pear walnut salad was also delicious and freshly prepared with high quality. The owners sent us lemoncello and fresh mango sorbet and of course they always give their guests homemade thinly sliced Biscotti's on the house. That was an unexpected and generous for a restaurant to provide on the house. This is what more restaurants should do from time to time to have repeat customers. We appreciated the hospitality. I must also comment that I love espresso martinis and find it rare to have one that you would remember. That was the best one I have had in a very long time. Delicious.. I look forward to dining back again and again.. Enjoy this fine little gem Siennas“

“Date: 8/9/24 Wanted pasta and wanted to try something new. My friend and I ordered the linguine Fra Diavolo with sea food and the sauce was amazing! Sea food tasted fresh. Also ordered the hangar steak chimmichurra and it’s delish! ! The salad that comes with it was fresh and had strawberries and blueberries! So good. Great happy hour red sangria and super friendly staff. Had a Quattro leche cake slice. Who knew? I thought you stop at three! Caramel sauce and fluffy. Yum. Go! Oh and so reasonably priced for what you get with large open seating and good acoustics.“

“❤️❤️❤️ Tomato Tomato is my family’s go to restaurant. Their extensive menu accommodates everyone’s favorites. Food, service and atmosphere makes each time we go a pleasurable experience. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Las pizzas y pastas 😍😍😍😂😂😂😂😂“

“I ordered Chicken Marsala and the chicken was raw. I did not notice until I'd already eaten a bit. I called the restaurant immediately and the man who answered had a very hard time believing that the chef who's been there for 30 years sent out raw chicken. I sent pictures to him. No reply. I am very sick today. I called the restaurant this morning and explained the situation again to a much nicer man who at least apologized and said he'd have a manager call me shortly when they got in. No manager has called. Nicks Pizza made me sick, refused to believe their chef sent me raw chicken...and I gave them plenty of time to make it right. With their lack of response or even care for this matter, I feel I now am left with no other choice but to post this review of my experience. I've been sick all day and have pictures of the pink/translucent chicken I ate from here to prove it. I am a long time customer however will never be back.“

“Amazing food, drink and service“

“Luigi’s catered for my moms 70th Birthday party! The food was spectacular and everyone loved it! I would definitely recommend catering from Luigi’s for any occasion 😊“

“A&S never disappoints with catering an event. Edwin is always responsive and helped to plan the full event from selecting a menu to rentals to arranging for staff and carefully planning every step. I would use the team again and had a wonderful time. The clean up was fabulous too.“

“Nicolette hosted us as if we were in her own dining room. The food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. From appetizers to scrumptious desserts. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“👍🏼 👌🏽 Loved it there and it was very tasty.“

“Awesome little find in Stamford’s historic South End.“

“I left an emotional review the other day when my online pizza order was incorrect- user error apparently, I don’t know how to remove it, so I wanted to give an update. The OWNER of the business took time out of his day to come to my house to explain and apologize for the mistake. I guess I clicked on the cheese on 1/2, when I thought it was extra cheese (as it was a large cheese pizza). Honest mistake for the pizza maker who also answered the phone and was a bit overwhelmed but a very sure housewife, asking why the pizza was naked, w an angry 6yr old asking me “how could this happen??? I looooove Bronx house…” Drama. So, I take it back- and am so happy we can keep ordering from this establishment. My kid loves the pizza, and it’s super quick and conveniently located by the hockey rink… lesson learned, just call. Us dinosaurs are no good at online ordering.“

“Food is delicious. Loved it!“

“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“

“Party room upstairs DJ and casino nights“

“First time here, just had a slice before the show (Palace) DELISH! Will go back again!“

“I highly recommend Antonio’s Two in One. There is so much to choose from there menu. Appetizers, salads, pastas, chicken, meat, soups, pizza and more. Love there stuffed clams, fried calamari and fried Mozzetta sticks appetizer. Highly recommend there chef salad with chicken and grilled shrimp salad. Zuppa de Piese is my favorite pasta, clams, calamari and fish in red or white sauce. Steak con hueso with mashed potato and spinach with broccoli garlic and oil is also a must try. Seafood soup and beef soup are two of my favorite. Salad pizza with chicken also very good. Service is great . Always on point. Making sure we have everything we need on the table. One of the best places in town.“

He took the time to explain the menu and assure me to my allergy restrictions!!“

“Can never say enough about Ridgeway Pizza. Their food is always awesome and their staff goes above and beyond to make sure you're happy. We love to give shout-outs to you guys on What's on the Menu?! Thanks for all the years of keeping us deep in pepperoni! :)“

“Food is delicious and the services exceptional. Kayla was our server tonight and on Sunday during brunch -- she is fantastic!!!! We love the atmosphere along with the menu, it's the best value in Stamford! The interior was recently renovated but during the summer months I prefer the outdoor dining area.“

“Very good solid choice for a casual moderately priced dinner. A little on the loud side, and the AC didn't seem Like it was working.“

“Excellent pizza. Friendly staff. Indoor & outdoor dinning. Good prices. What's not to like?“
