“What a great night out! It was our 43rd anniversary and we wanted someplace quiet that we could actually hear each other talk. This place was perfect!! Ask for a booth. A little awkward to get into, but well worth the efforts! And the food was better than expected! We had the Italian Long Hot Peppers as an appetizer, they were great!!! Their specials were also amazing. Try them, you won't be disappointed!! Can't wait to go back!“

“We were traveling through the arena on Hwy 84 at 6 am and wanted coffee. Caffe Italia was the only place open so we drove into Waterbury. Winding our way there we almost decided to turn around and then…there it was. This was like walking into a little Italian neighborhood hangout….with EXCELLENT espresso! At 6 am there was a group of local Italians, reading papers, playing cards and generally sharing the days news. It felt like being at home with family. Great atmosphere! Lots of specialty Italian food, cheeses etc. Super nice guy who made our espresso. We would definitely stop in again for more!“
