Top 5 Italian Restaurant in Fairfield County

35 Bedford St, Stamford, CT 06901, United States

“First time here, and it 👏🏼 is 👏🏼 amazing!!! It’s a Family business (which I appreciate). Staff is very attentive, with great recommendations. Pizza is so fresh. Mussels and dessert … I just don’t know what else to say. They earned my business and i will most likely return. Also, I didn’t realize how generous their portion sizes are (my waiter warned me but i ignored him) so I ended up with way too much food/leftovers— not complaining though. I would’ve cleaned my plate if I was physically capable”

“We had my bridal shower here in their gorgeous private event space downstairs. The food and service was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to take care of our guests and me personally as the Bride-To-Be. They really made you feel like family and took extra care and attention even making my Nanna laugh and smile. Special thanks to Jenn and the staff for helping us feel right at home. It was a dream bridal shower and I can't thank you all enough!!”

“Gisella's is excellent food, which we go out of our way for. We love taking family and friends there. It can be a bit loud because it's always busy due to its excellent staff and culinary excellence. However, that is not a distraction.”

“The food, service, and atmosphere of this restaurant was amazing! It was steps away from our hotel door! The owner was absolutely amazing and was able to suggest specific dishes based on our requests and dietary restrictions! We had tiramisu for dessert and it was extremely flavorful! The strawberries on the top were almost as sweet as the actual dish! Very impressed with this location! We will definitely be back on our travels through the area!”

“It gets very loud and our table was on the smaller side . Staff pays attention to everyone and the kitchen keeps things moving at a great pace. My burger was very good I ended up taking half home.”

“My family did Christmas dinner here. It was a prefix menu, but there were plenty of options. Loved the Truffle Lobster pasta and the Halibut. Honestly, all 3 courses were well presented with spectacular flavor. The decor was amazing! Loved the patio with the football games on. And the fireplace was so sexy with extra flair. Cannot wait until Summer by the pool to do it again.”

“Ordered delivery on grub hub. Pizza was excellent. So many other places, the pizza is greasy and falls apart. Post Corner's pizza was perfect. One of the best pizza places in the area. Garlic bread with cheese was delicious also.”

“After doing a pedal cruise in Harbor Point, we walked over to Fortina for lunch. We decided to dine on the rooftop, also known as the Fortina Yacht Club. It was a beautiful day, and the chill vibe and view were really nice. The yacht club had a separate menu from downstairs, but we were glad that we were still able to order from the kitchen menu if we wanted to. Since it was our first time, we definitely had to try one of their pizzas and an order of wings, which was brought up takeout style. It worked for the pizza (which had perfectly crispy pepperoni by the way!), but the wings unfortunately seemed like they had been sitting in the takeout container for a while, so they weren’t at their peak. Everything else was delicious - the grilled cheese, burger, and french onion dip were great casual foods for hanging out on the rooftop. Everything came out quickly, and the staff was nice. I definitely would be curious to explore more options on the kitchen’s menu next time, because I saw some pretty good looking options!”

“Amazing atmosphere, cocktails.... and omg the pizza! Must have! The French onion pizza with bacon. To die for yummy. The drinks were tasty and beautiful. Worth the drive 100x over!”

30 Long Ridge Rd, Stamford, CT 06905, United States

“We were on a road trip and stopped here with our two young children for dinner. The atmosphere was perfect - unfussy but comfortable and sweet, striking a great balance between checkered tablecloth Italian and linen tablecloth Italian. The food was beyond delicious, flavorful, and colorful, and the staff were so friendly and doted on our children, which always feels lovely. We'll make this a regular stop when we drive this route!”

“My little family and I had a great experience coming to Nino's of Darien after leaving a funeral service. I'm thankful that John from Bosak Funeral Home for the recommendation. Everything from the fresh out of the oven bread to the entrees (Chicken and Eggplant Parmigiana, Chicken Piccata, Pasta alla vodka, 2 personal pizzas, Fries and Tiramisu) were cooked to perfection including my 4 year old's meal. Shout out to my waitress Jamie G. and her assistant for bringing out the food on a timely fashion and hospitality. I had to drive back home which was 2 hours away. Gracias por darnos una buena experiencia ❤️ Sinceramente, Mama soltera con 2 hijos.”

“It's a great ambiance. It was a last minute reservation so I sat at the bar where the service was engaging. I got some cheerful input from Victoria on recommendations for food with drinks pairing. The food is upscale, pricey, and very well presented. Parsnip soup needed a little something extra, perhaps black pepper, but the Beets and Tagliolini dishes were great. A great place for a not-so-casual stop in.”

“After hearing rave reviews about Il Pastaficio, my family and I finally decided to give it a try for dinner last night. Nestled in a cozy corner of Cos Cob, this unassuming hole-in-the-wall establishment exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality by the staff, particularly Timothy, who provided exceptional service throughout our meal. The ambiance was inviting, setting the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the pasta. Il Pastaficio undoubtedly boasts some of the freshest, most flavorful pasta on the East Coast. Each bite of the Linguine Al Sugo Di Pesce was a revelation, perfectly cooked to al dente perfection and bursting with the flavors of the sea. My wife indulged in the decadent Lasagna Tartufo, while my son devoured his Kids Pasta with tomato sauce, both of them thoroughly enjoying their meals. What sets Il Pastaficio apart is its commitment to authenticity. With every bite, you're transported to the heart of Italy, thanks to the genuine flavors and expertly crafted dishes. It's like taking a culinary journey without ever leaving your seat. In conclusion, Il Pastaficio is a must-visit for pasta lovers and aficionados of authentic Italian cuisine. If I could, I'd give this place six stars for its outstanding food, friendly staff, and the ability to capture the essence of Italy in every dish. Whether you're a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and experience the magic of Il Pastaficio firsthand. You won't be disappointed.”

“Simply blown away by the staff and food offered. Went for my birthday dinner and I will be back for more celebrations and simple family dinner nights. Fresh bread, pasta and desserts...you can't go wrong. Also loved all the different seating arrangements, truly can't wait to go back!!”

“I visit the Market Place at least once a month to satisfy my cravings for their food. They have tons of gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options, all which are easily labeled. I typically get the chicken nachos which are to die for or a burger which is so tasty! I love the gluten free buns they use for their burgers! They also have incredible mocktails which I highly recommend!”
