My husband son and I were in the area and ordered takeout pizza to have a picnic and we were very impressed by the quality, speed of service, and the friendliness of service! I really liked that the inside had a separate area for takeout. We were really happy to find that the pizza was so delicious and so was my son! We will definitely return and hopefully next time to dine in too!

Fettuccini - his favorite.

Learned something first off- Exit is part of their name. We kept looking for the entrance door!! Food looks great- it hasn't arrived yet. Ambiance- good local vibe, good music the night we dropped by! Service was a bit slow, but they were trying.

chicken ranchero wrap

Not many lunch options in the town of Bradford, but we were definitely not disappointed with this restaurant. A little hesitation when we approached the exterior, as there was a shady character hanging outside the entrance...but we soon learned he had nothing to do with the place. The waitstaff were very attentive and friendly and seated us quickly. The darkness and the decor inside the restaurant gave me a feeling of old timey vibes. Clean and cozy, fine by me. We were looking for something light, so decided to split a wrap. We ordered the chicken ranchero wrap and the lovely waitress had the chef half everything so we had 2 plates. I love it when an establishment volunteers that option. It was a good thing we split that wrap, because it was packed full of crispy chicken. Fresh veggies in a soft wrap- hit the spot. The fries were the kind I love- battered then fried. They were a tiny bit stale, or may have been refried too many times, but I'm not complaining- I ate them all. Overall, a good experience and good food. Would definitely recommend and return.

Smoked lasagna (the serving is more generous than this photo suggests)

Whether you are going out on a date, getting engaged, enjoying a quiet Sunday dinner with family, or hosting a celebratory dinner gathering in a private room, Colatina Exit has you covered. We have done all of the above over a period of years, and the attentive, friendly staff has consistently exceeded expectations. The entrees, pizzas, and wine are all fantastic. The Dine-In Only Pizza knocked my socks off and I still can't find them. The crust was sublime, and the lightly-dressed, fresh arugula on top was perfect in every way. I highly recommend Colatina Exit!

Mac & cheese

I've been going to Colatina since I was a child. It has gone through many evolutions of food, service, building construction, musical entertainment.. you name it. I am happy to say that the current incarnation is both recognizable as the restaurant of old and reflective of all as of new dishes. There is admittedly little competition so they could fall off but they don't. The mushroom soup and the greens with garlic dill dressing are oddly two of our favorites! The Mac & cheese and lasagna are both excellent.

Cool painting of the restaurant!

I'd give 10 stars if I could. I came here with my kids and parents while vacationing in Fairlee and was very impressed with everything. When we called we were told reservations were recommended but they could seat a party of 5 right away. Upon entering, our server, Kasey, greeted us right away. She was very considerate in seating us, as the front booths would be in direct sunlight, and asked if my mother (who was using a walker) would be able to take a step down to another section where there were additional large booths. Kasey was great! Very attentive and funny, and even brought out bowls showing the "pub size" vs regular size pasta for their "Way out Wednesday". When I asked for a larger glass of water for my son who was apparently very thirsty, she brought him a carafe to refill his glass. We were served bread with dipping oil which was a nice touch. Our food came out quickly, with one hiccup- my son's chicken marsala order didn't make it from the order slip to the kitchen. The manager (I didn't catch his name) was very apologetic and put a rush on his meal. Kasey also came out right away to apologize and ask if she could get him anything else while he waited. Mistakes happen and we appreciated the concern they showed. His meal did arrive fairly quickly and everything tasted delicious. My penne a la vodka was spicy, which I wasn't expecting, but I liked it. We ordered tarimisu and cannoli for dessert and left very satisfied. I was also very pleased to see that my son's meal was taken off the bill. Absolutely will come here again next time we visit VT

In Topsham Vermont on a summer vacation when I stumbled across this gem of a restaurant! Italian food, rooted 50 years in history? In a small town? With sustainable practices rooted in their community? Doesn't get much better than that! Good wine, good food, and great service! Ambiance was romantic, charming, and rustic. Lovely place! The Lasagna was filled with flavor and so good. I never order Lasagna at Italian restaurants. Not sure why really but something told me to order it here and I am so thankful I did! You can't go wrong here. The bread and butter is delicious! What on earth do they put in their butter? Maple? Is that the secret? My husband ordered the Cajun Chicken Fettuccine. He reports that the sauce was very flavorful and the warmth of the grape seed tomatoes was a pleasant surprise to the dish. The mozzarella was so good! Dessert was amazing especially the peanut butter pie!

Eggplant Parmesan

Simple restaurant but very good food. The eggplant Parmesan was delicious!!! They also got quite some other vegetarian options. The lemon drop martini was also really good. Service was pretty good!

Cool & cozy seating!

It's ok, not priced accordingly. Food was just ok. For what it cost you deserve a lot better.

This is my new favorite restaurant in Vermont! They started us off with complimentary French bread…read moreand a roasted bulb of garlic that you smash and mix in some olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and crushed pepper flakes. We got the mussels which were the highlight of the meal for me. The white wine sauce was so delicious, there's something I couldn't put my finger on, but it set it apart from others I've had. In all honesty, the entrees were just normal Italian food, it was good but nothing earth shattering. The reason this place is a 10/10 is because of the mussels, it's so good!

We stayed at Aprés Inn, which is a 2-minute walk to The Garlic. We took heed of the advice to get…read morethere before doors open at 5pm. We were first on line at 4:45 and by 4:55 there were several folks waiting behind us. We got a wonderful booth and were immediately served. Atmosphere is cozy and like being in a grotto. The fresh bread with roasted whole garlic, Parmesan and olive oil was so good and they brought us a second baguette as we had mussels and spinach Italiano to start. Good selection of beverages - local brews on draft. The kid's menu has a choice between a pasta dish - linguine or penne with marinara, butter or puttanesca - with meat balls as an add on. It is a lot of food for a kid and we brought back leftovers. My husband enjoyed his ahi tuna with potatoes and roasted tomato. My chicken piccata was perfectly cooked and flavorful with the capers. We were full, but could not resist ordering the tiramisu. The tiramisu was light and not overly sweet with drizzle of chocolate, lady fingers with a dash of espresso. Definitely worth coming back next time we come out to ski in Killington.
