“My fiancé and I have been coming here for the past 7 years. Never had a bad meal and the price is great for the amount you get. The people commenting badly about this place are definitely overreacting and probably live in Greenwich. Sounds like snobby bitter women.“

“Love this restaurant. Favorite place in town I make homemade cheese and can't even come close to their house made ricotta. So rich and creamy. Love the pizzas. Definitely recommend!“

“We love coming here for dinner when visiting our son at college. Excellent service and everything is delicious. Definitely our favorite place.“

“Great restaurant. We just celebrated my wife's birthday in their private area. We had 21 guests and the food and service was excellent. The staff was very attentive and everything was served timely, hot and delicious.“

“Every time we choose Antonio’s for date night, it’s a win! The staff and the owner are always warm and welcoming and the service is always just right. And then there’s the food! They have one of the best chicken cutlets I’ve ever tasted and their Alfredo sauce is out of this world!“

“My son's wedding was at the event room this past Saturday. Liz, Kevin staff did an amazing job!! The food was delicious and everyone had amazing time!! Can't recommend II Palio enough!! Patty Green“

“Every bite was delicious!“

“Excellent local Italian deli, great catering options. I would give a 5 star but prices have made it too expensive to eat lunch too often. One meatball grinder, one ham and cheese on rye, one soda and one bag of chips in no way should cost $30.....but that's what they charged the other day.“

“We had a repast lunch yesterday after my dad’s funeral for about 35 people. The food was excellent. The staff was friendly and attentive. The space is really nice and Emma was so accommodating and easy to work with. We will definitely be back.“

“The Greek salad was amazing- the dressing was phenomenal! Chicken piccata was delicious , my husband got the shrimp scampi he says was awesome! Great bread :)“

“We had a fantastic meal at Caffe Bravo! We ordered the arancini and buratta for appetizers. The arancini reminded me of what you get from an authentic, local Napolitan eatery in Italy. The buratta was creamy and super fresh. For dinner we had freshly made gnocchi , the linguine and vongole, and the grigliata di mare. The gnocchi were like fluffy pillows that were made moments before getting to our table. The homemade linguine was perfectly cooked with plenty of clams. And the seafood was grilled to perfection with a tasty farro rice as a side. And then for dessert we had the homemade tiramisu and chocolate lava cake that put us over the edge. Can’t wait to go back and bring friends so they can experience for themselves. 💯 🇮🇹 #caffebravo #forzanapoli“

“We dined in last night (10/12/23) we had a party of 5. Our server was top notch, our meals were extremely delicious and outstanding in their presentations. The photos do not do any justice. I had Shrimp Fra Diavolo, Pinot Grigio White and my wife and I shared the Carrot Cake.“

“I've been here four times, and it has been an Excellent experience every time I go. The Atmosphere, food, drinks, and service were GREAT. I usually have stomach sensitives when I eat out but never at Strega. They have Real gluten, not chemically processed, and low bakers yeast in their bread and pasta. Highly recommend!“

“The best, delicious entrees. Wide variety of delicious appetizers and salads. Everything is cooked to order and can be personalized. Delicious cocktails with Melissa. Perfect dining experience with Arturo and Michael in the dining room. 10+. Our favorite Friday night spot, where we are family.“

“My children gave me a 85th Birthday Party at Brazi's and I cannot say enough about this wonderful Restaurant. The food, and the service that was given to me and my guests was exceptional. A day of a Happy Remembrance.“

“That very well may have been one of the best meals of my life!! The food was obviously to die for, but the ambiance and level of hospitality was also beyond elite. Couldn't recommend this place more - can't wait to be back!

My favorites were the vodka sauce pork chop and of course the golden deviled eggs - cmon now!“

“We stopped in for some stuffed breads and tried some italian pastry.They where all excellant and be back for sure.“

“4 of us had dinner last night, food was excellent! The eggplant rollatini was stuffed with ricotta, tender eggplant and delicious sauce. My husband had sausage & mushroom pizza. Nice crust, just enough toppings and again, that sauce! Fried calamari was tender & crispy. 6 nice size shrimp in the cocktail. If I had anything to complain about it would be the cocktail sauce was a bit wimpy for my taste. More horseradish, guys! Lol Service was super, empty glasses and plates were removed after we finished. Cozy atmosphere, nice music at a good volume. I highly recommend the place! <3“

“Gusto is absolutely FANTASTIC! My family went there yesterday for my mother's birthday and we all thoroughly LOVED it. The food is incredibly delicious and well-portioned. Our server, especially, was really wonderful, very peppy, caring and attentive. Don't know her name but she is around 4' 11" - 5' 2", wears eyeglasses and is of Asian descent. She's really terrific, as are the chefs. Been wanting to visit Gusto for several years. Well worth the wait.“

“My family orders Minervini almost every Friday! The only pizza my youngest daughter will eat. They just changed their chicken fingers and my oldest daughter and I think the new ones are even better! I’m a picky eater and they’re probably sick of my special orders 🤣 but always accommodating. Highly recommend!!“

“Best Italian food!  Great owners that really care about their customers.  Would recommend Cappetta’s 100 times over“

“My wife and I have lived in many places and we've never had a sandwich that was so delicious, even on the next day. We've eaten our way from coast to coast and this is my far the greatest hero, grinder, sandwich whatever you want to call it. We will never be getting a grinder anywhere else. The quality, quantity and taste is a 10/10.“

“This place is the best restaurant outside of Naples Italy. My wife and I have been to Naples many times and Zenelli’d reminds us so much of the restaurants in Naples.“

“Modern Apizza is our favorite pizza restaurant. Always a must when we are in New Haven. Nothing comes close in Florida“

“I give Villa Lulu a solid 4, bordering on 5, but I'm so fussy, it's probably a 5. I save 5's for something so amazing I just can't describe it. After a brief snafu with who our waiter was, the staff was super accomodating with everything. They kept their promise to get us to the show on time. So, service ended up a 5 but started as a 2 or 3. Food, we had a variety of salads and appetizers, two main courses for 4 of us. All were very good., to excellent Atmosphere, 4, and I only detract because we had to walk up a steep flight of stairs to the dining room, so if you are physically unable to make the stairs, your options will be limited. There is al fresco dining but it was too cold. I am sincerely looking forward to returning and trying more options at a more leisurely pace because it's the type of place where you can actually carry on a conversation without the clatter of dishes and the intrusion of others' conversations. It's very warm and cozy and would be good for a romantic dinner. Reminds me of "The Big Night" kind of vibe.“

“I had an INCREDIBLE experience at Olive Garden North Haven. After hearing complaints about the quality / service, I was worried to come. I was so so happy about the unlimited breadsticks I took a picture. My server was wonderful, may have accidentally gotten her in the picture. 😂😂 10/10 service!!!“

“Great food great service beautiful interior highly recommended. Thank you for making our evening with friends enjoyable.“

“Awesome foods, staffs very friendly and accomodating.“

“Came here on a quiet weeknight and was amazed by the authentic Italian cuisine. Started off with a wonderful Burrata then I had the Rigatoni Bolgenese with was really good. We also bought a loaf of the Italian Bread to bring home. That bread with some Cabot butter and you are on to something!! Would visit again.“

“Great squid among other foods“

“We had dinner tonight at Nikki and Frankie's on Route 80 on the recommendation of a friend.. the eggplant was fantastic and made the right way the good old-fashioned Italian way.. the meatballs were legit the sauce was delish and couldn't be any fresher... we were welcomed like we were walking into aunties dining room and the place was clean as a whistle.. A must go to !“
