Went to 88 Keys with friends for an evening out at their reccommendation. We were not disappointed. It is a small place so reservations are required. My husband remarked several times how nice it was to go somewhere that was not super crowded. It was very nicely decorated and comfortable. We enjoyed wonderful live music and a good meal. Service was exceptional and the dessert just amazing! It was a lively experience all around.

I had the pleasure of working with Ralph DelBuono and his staff to coordinate a surprise 60th bday for my sister. (Note: I live outside of CT) Ralph was in constant contact with me regarding the details and it went off flawlessly. His staff at the venue was extremely pleasant and accommodating (thank you Jillian and Drew). The food was delicious (variety of appetizers and finger foods) and the venue was perfect (we had about 36 people and it was very comfortable and had room for more). It was a great experience especially for putting this together remotely. Thank you Ralph & staff

I recently attended a surprise birthday party at this venue. It was a very cute place with a variety of types of seating, and a bar area. Staff were very nice and very approachable. Buffet style food was nicely displayed and tasted great. Would definitely recommend. Awesome spot for a private party!

My husband and I have fallen in love with 88 Keys! It has a speakeasy vibe and the live music makes it even more of a hidden gem. Refreshing and fun! Would be great for a date night or a night with friends. The food is all small plates and is an Italian's paradise, for sure! Everything we have tried so far has been divine. The cocktails are delicious and their presentation is on point. Staff is very friendly and personable. Always make an online reservation if you want a table.

I came here last night with a friend, it’s a bit of a small place but I was pleasantly surprised when I heard the music and it wasn’t the radio!!! They have a piano there that this young man Ethan Fiske was playing and singing along to and it completely made the experience!! I hope next time I go he’s there again!! Love a place that supports local artists! And gonna go check out Mr. Ethan Fiskes music!!!!!

Great atmosphere. Low key and relaxing. Food was excellent, music on point, traveled from Westchester and less than an hour.
88 Keys is the perfect place for a date night. We went to have dessert and drinks and enjoy the music. The first time we went we reserved the couch which was a cozy place to cuddle up and enjoy the show. We loved our experience so much we asked our friends out to a double date and we reserved a table so we could catch up and enjoy to music and atmosphere. My husband and I absolutely love this place and we can’t wait to go back.

Lot's of atmosphere if seeking a local, intimate piano bar. It was difficult for a group of more than 2 couples to sit together. Definitely not a dinner restaurant. It's a nice place to hang out for drinks and light small plates - that's all they have. The items we shared were unique and tasty. The drinks were decent. Service was ok, but prices for food and drink were on the high side. I feel the place tries to be more upscale and adult centric.

Cannot recommend this place enough! My husband made a reservation for 6pm on a Friday for a wedding anniversary date. We arrived and were warmly welcomed by the hostess, Gina. She showed us the table and chatted with us, giv us the history of the place and all of the interesting details about the intentional and detailed decor. Food and drink were superb! Incredible service by Gina, waitress Dita, and bar manager Drew. The music was phenomenal, created a relaxing ambiance— just enough to enjoy but also hold a conversation at the same time! Thanks so much, 88 keys, we will be back soon!
