We stopped here twice but only for ice cream. Between the three of us we tried floats, shakes and sundaes and we loved all of them. We sat at the counter and both times our servers were fantastic! It is located in downtown New Milford right across from the train station.

Wonderful & fresh Italian food. The sauce is fantastic! They were very accommodating for our large group (18) and did a great job with the appetizers (fried calamari, bruschetta, antipasto caprese, & fried mozzarella) as well as our salads. They have lots of options on their lunch menu from paninis to sandwiches to pasta dishes to pizza. I was thrilled to have many gluten free options as well! The penne norma is excellent! The tables have tablecloths and the main dining room is nicely painted and decorated. We were very impressed!

Things started off badly when we ordered. Rosa, our waitress took our order then saw that we had a Restaurant.com coupon. She said she could not accept the coupon for the two orders we placed that were "specials". Restaurant.com was for regular menu items only. We knew this wasn't true but Rosa insisted that the coupon wouldn't work if used for a special. Sensing this was going to be our last visit we conceded to Rosa and ordered off the regular menu.Overall;- OK Pizza Joint food- Bread was stale - Service was slow- Lucite container that held sugar packets was sticky dirty and had crumbs inside- A few fruit fliesWe won't be back....

I've dined here through all the reincarnations of this building. I must say this newest restaurant where we have dined about six times before is bright friendly. So much better than its predecessors. Sitting at the bar last evening I decided to write a review. I thought... so this is how this place is on a busy night. Then today I read many of the not so great and negative reviews. I wasn't happy with last evening I feared I was being negative, perhaps I was the only one. I must say they all said how I felt last night!Where was the bartender? Once he go around to us he was overwhelmed with settling up on a bunch of checks. Then he'd run off and get tabs from the back room. Finally, someone passed by to take our order for drink and food. We ordered wine, which was poured via those tiny carafes. Why do they have to measure wine that they are charging four to five times the cost price....It's a slap in the face to the customer. Oh, well ...slap me. At first we were going to order entrees however we both realized that the staff was running around like chickens with their heads cut off. We independently decided on the large meat ball appetizers. Usually we will order that or the pizza when we stop by in mid week. Neither are great, yet they are passable. Anyway the girl told us we are out of mamas meat balls {Saturday night at 8!}. I ordered the onion soup my wife settled for two of the same lamb meatballs plus the very sweet one. I chose the onion soup which was terrific. So, we accomplished putting our order in.Now for the repeat failures. We weren't given a set up of napkin and utensils. No bread either until I buttonholed a passing employee. Out came the bread and butter..No knives or napkins.. All the headless chickens were running about, including the owner. We were starving as we had just come from a long flight we were on our way home we planned stopping in before getting to the house. I opened the butter dragged the bread through it. Utilizing the cocktail napkin under my wine I wiped my fingers of the butter. After a fashion one of the bus boys passed by, I said to my wife, ask him for a set up you are the assertive one, I am the brash one. I was really hungry I didn't want to be asked to leave. Finally the chickens came home to roost. The bartender spoke to us, the bus boy delivered our set up. My pasta entree arrived it wasn't bad yes a little too salty as the other reviewers have noted.I like this place as a late afternoon cocktail lounge. As far as we are concerned it isn't great for dinner. Not to be redundant yet being redundant, it is quite pricey for the quality of food and service.

While driving around in the CT hills seeking covered bridged we decided to have dinner. My friend ordered meatballs and macaroni and it came with a salad also. I had the broccoli Rabe ajd Sausage over a bed of cavatelli macaroni and a salad. Botheals were excellent. I would stop here again if I was in the area, very good and the service was excellent

It was a very nice surprise for a dining place in the rural woods northeast of New Milford. It's in a historic old home, and the place is comfortable and nice. Service was very friendly and attentive and the food was very good and at a reasonable price. In the nice weather, you can even eat outside on the porch.

Northern Italian - authentic home made food
Reviewed By maries939
I wish my review could be better. I like the owners very much. I can tell you the service was good. I can also tell you the food was ordinary. Ok Italian.....not the great Italian I was hoping for. Sauces were just ok....veal was tender, pasta was ok......just not up to my standard. My home town is New York City so I am used to extraordinary Italian food. This was not.

This restaurant is an iconic Italian eatery in New Milford. You can always depend on having good âcomfort foodâ at this establishment. Service was fast and friendly. They are known for their delicious pizzas.I had a âmeat-loversâ pizza. It was filled with plenty of goodies. I asked for it âwell-doneâ and it came out perfect. There was plenty of pizza for left-overs. My wife enjoyed a Salmon Creaser salad. My uncle enjoyed a plate of ravioliâs. Everyone was satisfied.

We made a 5pm reservation on a Saturday night. We were promptly seated and immediately brought waters and menus. We had the muscles for appetizer and scallop entres. All was prepared and served perfectly. Waitress was wonderful, I wish we got her name. We were in this area for the first time and for a one day stop. This place made it memorable along with our Airbnb stay. Appetizer, entres and a couple of drinks under $100 for top notch food.
