My guy and I have been here and it's a pretty solid spot. We had a plane Jane chicken Alfredo and the some wine . The food is not OMG to die for Italian but it is good. The service was wonderful. It seems to have a real nice environment too. We have not been back so when I do I might order something different to see where they fall on the spectrum. Price wise I think for the quality was a little over priced but they are in pricey shopping center in Fairfield so they have to pay rent. WHEN IT COMES TO BUSINESS I PAY ATTENTION TO THINGS LIKE THIS.

Visited here Friday 3-18-2022. Place was not crowded for a Friday night, we were seated immediately and service was prompt. Atmoshere is very nice but the live music was a little loud for my liking. Bread they brought out pre-meal was delicious. My son had spaghetti and meatballs and my daughter had the Fettucini Alfredo. Both their meals were hot, fresh and very good. I had the Italian salad and the Capellini Primavera with grilled shrimp. My salad and meal were both excellent. I would have to say our food was as good as any Italian food I've ever had. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience real, quality Italian. Located about a block off I-290, easy access for travelers.

I hold my Business meetings here once per quarter for lunch. Chef Tony has created a lovely atmosphere, very accommodating and responsive. But it is the FOOD that keeps us coming back. Absolutely great flavor and the sauce is the best ever.Teo also does a great job serving us. No doubt this is a 5 star spot!

Both the service and the food are amazing! Wonderful atmosphere as well. Definitely recommend! Our waiter Mr. Cusimano was so nice and chef Tony even came out and visited our table. Such nice people and amazing food. Will definitely be coming back here many many times in the future.

We got our meal to go, but we were still impressed by the food. Generous portions and everything was so delicious! Can’t wait to go back and eat in the restaurant.

Visited last week for the time, I was intrigued by the high rating and It's always nice to support small business. However, I felt obliged to leave this review to encourage management to do better. To start off, grocery store bread heated in the microwave, it's just plain lazy. Caesar salad dressing tasted like mayo. Pasta and seafood dishes were merely descent, lacked flavor.

Utterly disgusting!!!!!I purchased 2 Shrimp and Chicken Alfredo’s that cost $62, which was waaayyyy too expensive. The food was so bland and the chicken was dry. You only get 4 shrimps for $7. I will NEVER visit this establishment again! Be ware and don’t be fooled by the photo yon YELP or their website!

We dined in here and the food was so delicious. The atmosphere is relaxing and casual and they have an awesome selection of wine.

The best Italian food in USA. I have traveled the world, lived in Italy and have traveled all Italy but there is no comparison except the food you get in Italy. I don't want to exaggerate but yes their food is amazing. I would say it's expensive but you're money is worth it. Tutto Bene fratellooo.

I know 5 star seems too good to be true right? Wrong. My folks came in from out of town and I'm a big fan of trying different local restaurants I happen to dine. They were not so open minded at first(thanks to Olive Garden's 1+ hr wait). I made a joke about how it just be good because everything on the menu was Italian, and lo' and behold they did not disappoint. Tired of eating OG and feeling bloated and needing a nap afterwards, didn't happen here. Flavor, superb! Price, excellent! Even my kiddo enjoyed it. Will be coming back to try the other options for sure!
They had live music inside! Delicious food. Yummy bread with olive oil and spices. A little pricey, but the quality *chefs kiss* all of us had food left over. I will definitely go back.

Very different from other chain and chain Italian restaurants. Would recommend restaurant go to seasonal menu items also instead of in Italian use English words or put explanation under each menu items. Didn't do the chef specialities because all were fish related. Reasonable prices for a non chain restaurant.

Live in Fairfield and went to the soft opening like 5 years ago hoping for an amazing Italian restaurant in Faifield like Azuls Italian Kitchen at the time (RIP due to Covid).. Was not impressed. Went back about 3 months after grand opening and met with the same results. Fast forward to today and our neighbor has been and said he loves it. So we decided to give it its 3rd strike.We ordered our drinks and when they came, we asked if they had bread and oil, and the waiter replied... I haven't got it yet, yet you'll get it when I get it. The Caesar salads came and he asked if we wanted parmesan cheese, we stated yes, and it never came.When the main course came he asked if we wanted parmesan cheese... And you guessed it, it never came. We had to keep asking for it until it came 10 minutes later. The tortellini was lukewarm at best. The Chicken Pollard, which is chicken breast, was very thinly sliced and extremely overcooked. It was so tough I could not cut it with their knife and fork. The penne pasta sauce was like water, with no flavor.There was no point in complaining because there was only on person, the waiter, we ever saw over the entire restaurant.Main reason not to complain, was it was not the waiters fault, completely, but we will never go back again

We were the only Blacks and also the only ones not tended to. They literally served all the white people around us and ignored us for about 35 minutes till we departed. When we called it to the Waiter’s attention in our area, he just shrugged, said ok, and still nothing. Very unsettling!As we were leaving the Hostess apologized. We never spoke to her about what happened and she never said why she was apologizing.

We were the only black couple on a Saturday night. We were also the only ones not assigned a waiter/waitress. All the other patrons around us were greeted, asked for drinks, and served their food. After 35 minutes of nothing, we decided to let the hostess know that no one gave us dining attention. Still nothing for 15 more minutes. Others were still being served around us. At that point, we decided it was in our best interest to leave.
