I was able to grab pictures of the appetizers before people dug in however, I was unable to get pictures of the pizzas. The pizza was really good. We ordered one pepperoni and the other was sausage and green peppers. our waitress was awesome and unfortunately, I cannot remember her name, but she was super funny. The ambience was good. We got there at a good time. It wasn't overly loud.

After an extended stay overseas, my first "date night" was at Viron. This was my second visit, his…read morefirst, and we left well fed bringing back a bag of leftovers. The portions here are downright ridiculous, in the best way possible. We shared My Mother's Chips, and that dip! Probably the best part of the appetizer. We each ordered a pasta dish, and both were good. Piece of advice: BOOK A RESERVATION, especially on a Friday or weekend. The place was packed. Whether you're planning a date night or celebrating something special, Viron delivers. Good food, beautiful atmosphere and plenty of parking.

I was invited to have lunch with a friend of mine here at Viron Rondo Osteria…read more Doing research I knew this place was going to be bougie. So thoughts immediately went to "this place better be good for the money." I checked out the menu, and the prices seemed a little high for lunch. My expectations are running really high for this place to perform Upon pulling into the restaurant, which is gorgeous, parking was a breeze as the lot was very large in size After about a 25 to 30 yard walk, we entered the greeting station, and the young lady was there seating everybody promptly upon arrival. I love the walkway up to this area. Looking at the outdoor seating, there were many tables with these beautiful umbrellas it was a no-brainer to ask for an outdoor table to enjoy the surrounding plantings, and the early summer sunny weather This was lunchtime, and it was rather crowded The waitress came over and immediately poured us some ice water, and the second trip delivered us some bread with some olive oil and Parmesan, along with some hot pepper flakes. This bread was so warm with a solid crust, I could've made an appetizer just out of dipping this into the seasoned olive oil. It's a good thing there were only four pieces of bread as I could've eaten a lot more and filled up on it. I ordered the Classico Panini for $21.00. The sandwich consisted of grilled marinated chicken breast, roasted red peppers, arugula, mozzarella, and pesto, on a grilled Panini bread. I also chose the hand cut, french fries as the side. Within 20 minutes, the food arrived, and the presentation was spectacular I was immediately drawn to the french fries, which were a little bit soggy and taste it like they were sitting for a little bit, and they were served in this cute little silver bucket with ketchup on the side. I would give these a 6 or of 10. Now to the Panini... This was a spectacular choice. All the flavors with this grilled chicken breast playing off each other made this one memorable sandwich. This type of sandwich is out of my wheel horse, and I'm glad took a shot and ordered it! I took half the sandwich and a few of the french fries home with me. It was that filling! My friend had a fish sandwich with french fries on the side, served on a soft roll. She liked her lunch very much, as she's a regular here and enjoys the lunch choices. She took half of her lunch home with her. Now... Looking around I saw those eggplant chips piled high with the dipping sauces and said man o man, those look delicious. I think I'll order those next visit I also saw some really big salad choices coming out. They look like it even though I'm not one for salads for lunch. The mussels in marinara sauce served to the table next-door, looked like a hit. Cocktails were flowing these drinks specials and martinis were just everywhere! That tells me this is the place to go after work to have martinis in an appetizer In my 66 years around the sun, I would rate this as one of the best restaurants in Central Connecticut. Definitely a top five. If you have a chance to get here, come for lunch first sit outside enjoy a cocktail, and be prepared to serve huge portions of delicious offerings Service was with a smile and professional, this place was hit on all cylinders for lunch It was pointed out to me that the owner was making the round saying hi to people. I love this touch. This was really really cool. Lunch with the tip was $50, a bargain in any person's budget I would rather come here than hit one of the burger, chains, or steak chains This is local. This is locally owned. This is amazing. I really enjoyed being a guest here and I look forward to coming back shortly!

The food takes FOR EVER to come out and refills on soda took around 10mins each time despite the restaurant being at roughly 40% capacity...To put it in perspective we got there at 745, ordered apps and entrees immediately and finally got our dinner at 915.

It was a Wednesday night. We noticed that the menu online is not the same as the menu there. We were both happy and disappointed at the same time with the menu change. There was an appetizer we plan to get From the online menu, but was not there at the menu at the restaurant. Two of us did order food that we did not see on the menu online so we were both happy that we were able to order gnocchi. That is pretty much.. I did take a picture of the menu and posted it here in my review so people could see the actual menu. The pasta comes with three choices of sauce, a marinara sauce, a pink sauce, or a Bolognese. My friend ordered the gnocchi with the pink sauce and absolutely loved it. I wasn't sure what to get, but I got the marinara sauce. I was not aware at the time, but the marinara sauce is actually very spicy. I really loved it and was happy with my choice. My friend tried it and thought it was too spicy for her but really loved her choice. My other friend, very much enjoyed the linguine and clams. No bread is offered complementary. Small salads did come complementary with the dinners. Overall, we were all happy and we all would like to come again.

There's a bit of a "shared fryer situation," so don't be surprised if your mozzarella brick has just a whisper of haddock perfume. The desserts look like they've seen a freezer or two, but the warm vibe more than makes up for it. The staff is fantastic, and the tables practically chat with each other. Think Sunday dinner energy without doing the dishes. All in all, a four-star hug of a restaurant.

Their Specialty Pizzas are definitely a highlight, specifically the Big Mac pizza, which has fantastic flavor. Pro tip: ask for it without lettuce! The heat from the pizza turns the lettuce soggy pretty quickly, so skipping it makes for a much better slice. I also gave the Alfredo a try. It's definitely tasty and hits the spot if you're craving pasta, though it doesn't quite beat a homemade recipe made with love. Overall, good comfort food and a reliable choice in Meriden if you know what to order!
