8 Best Italian Restaurants in West Hartford

“Melissa took excellent care of my husband and I for our first visit to Bricco! We celebrated our 1 year anniversary and it was perfect! The peppered tuna was fantastic! We had fried calamari, bacon wrapped dates, salad , lemon cake desert and espressos! The Aperol spritz was also delicious! Ambiance was relaxing but beautiful! 10/10 we traveled from new haven to visit! Was definitely worth the 45 minute ride! Thanks Bricco!“

“I'm going to keep this short. What I'm about to say is a bold statement but I will stand by it until something better comes along (I doubt it will). My wife and I travel the US for work and have been to countless pizza joints in dozens of different states across the US and Dino's....well Dino's is the best pizza in the country. This place is so good that we have driven hours out of the way 3 times already just to eat the deliciously perfect pepperoni pizza that this fine establishment makes. Please support this place with your business because they deserve it!“

“I have been to this restaurant several times; I recently took my whole family for a special occasion and was not disappointed! Klodian was our waiter and was fantastic!! He offered wonderful food suggestions and delivered great service! Each time he came over to our table he was checking in, offering suggestions, and making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back and I hope that he is our waiter again!“

“Four friends enjoyed a great dining experience at Portobello West Hartford. The manager and staff were very welcoming, and we found the restaurant comfortable and quiet enough for conversation. Drinks, salads and entrees were all good. Generous portions. Recommend the Veal Portobello, clams, lasagna -- delicious and attractively presented.“

“Overall, it was a solid dinner out. Started with a Caesar salad which was pretty standard. Had full anchovies on top, so if that's something that creeps you out, be sure to ask for it without. Dinner was good-- I thought the seafood pasta could have used a little more flavor but it was still really good. Good portion size. The desserts are what really impressed me. We split two different desserts-- coconut creme brûlée and profiteroles. Those were both so good!! I'm not a big wine person but they only had one Riesling, which I thought was a little sparse since it is a wine bar. The one they had was perfect though! So maybe they only need one... I would go back to eat here.... It was perfectly lovely for a night out.“

“I came here with my daughter and we had an absolutely ,wonderful experience, and I wanted to share it! Our server, Jasmine, was so sweet!!! she was so helpful, knowledgeable and fun! The atmosphere here is so nice. It has wonderful music playing and is so welcoming. And our food was absolutely delicious! What a Wonderful afternoon. Thank you so much.!!! Come here and don't forget to ask for Jasmine!!“

“Food is fresh and made from scratch. The owners are a family of amazingly hard workers, friendly and just great overall. Chicken soup is the best esp when you have a cold. Lola Bread is omg so good! Idk who thought of using feta vs mozz but it’s the best idea! Prices are better than others near them too. Chicken wings are some of the best I’ve ever had. Oh and you have to try the Eggplant Rollatini too!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options“
