    Side House Salad
    Mr C.

    "Didn't come for a club sandwich, but left a believer." Let's be honest -- when you walk into an Italian restaurant, you're thinking pasta, pizza, maybe chicken parm. But I decided to roll the dice (casino pun intended) and ordered the Grilled Chicken Club -- and jackpot. Perfectly grilled chicken, apple-smoked bacon, lemon basil aïoli, mozzarella, lettuce, and tomato -- it was fresh, flavorful, and honestly one of the best club sandwiches I've had in a while. Who knew an Italian kitchen could pull this off so well? The fries were crispy, golden, and seasoned like they had something to prove. The side salad was your basic side salad -- fresh, dependable, and just happy to be included. The bartender was friendly, quick, and kept the good vibes going -- exactly the kind of service that makes you want to stick around for another round. Overall, a solid win: great sandwich, killer fries, decent salad, and excellent service. Not bad for a place I thought would only serve spaghetti.

    LOVED the flavor and portions of the food- especially for the price. The tiramisu was authentic and felt homemade and not store bought. Our service was helpful, attentive and kind. The ambiance was superb- bright, happy and clean. Happy we discovered and we will be back because you get so much food for the price.

    This was my first time ever coming ever and I don't think I realized this place has been here for many years. I was invited to a dinner with a family who comes here to host large parties. The area seems very convenient for large groups, you can order for groups and you have a large space. There are party packages to order and we were super full with leftovers! There's complimentary bread with oil and balsamic vinegar. We had Caesar salad, chicken pasta, pepperoni pizza, a chicken pizza, and some of the kids ordered tiramisu and cheesecake. They also had pitchers for water and soda. Service was so quick and we were in and out of there but we also had the area to hang out. The quality of food wasn't bad and seems convenient for larger parties. Parking is easy, service was great.

    Italian nachos. I got it with no jalepenos but online says it's supposed to come with either sausage or chicken. No meat and barely cheese

    I stopped by 1933 Kitchen & Bar for lunch because I saw they had a chicken Philly on the menu,…read morewhich can be surprisingly hard to find since most places only offer the traditional beef version. I ordered the chicken Philly and specifically asked for no mayo, which was also noted on my receipt. I also asked for jalapeños because the menu listed "hot and sweet peppers," but the server said those were more like bell peppers. The fresh jalapeños ended up being an extra $1.50. Unfortunately, the sandwich arrived with mayo on both sides of the bread. I was already very hungry and getting a headache, so instead of sending it back and waiting again, I tried scraping most of it off. Even after that, the sandwich was still very heavy. There was also a lot of melted cheese that tasted closer to an American or Cheez-Whiz style cheese rather than something milder like provolone or Swiss, which made the sandwich very wet and overly rich. I ended up eating less than half of the sandwich before giving up on it. The garlic fries were decent, though they were very thin shoestring fries and the portion looked larger than it actually was because they were spread out across the tray. The pickle on the side was very soft and soggy and had an unusual mix of dill and sweet flavors, so I only took one bite. To the server's credit, when she saw that I wasn't taking the sandwich to go and mentioned the mayo issue, she gave me 20% off the bill, which I appreciated. However, since more than half of the sandwich went uneaten due to the mistake, a larger adjustment might have felt more appropriate. Overall, the experience was pretty average ("meh"), and while the staff was polite, the food itself didn't live up to expectations. I probably wouldn't return on my own.

I still had to pick my kid up from school, so it just made sense to slide somewhere close by that never misses. Pulled up to Ristorante Pasta D'Oro -- this was my third visit -- and just like every other time, it delivered. Honestly, it might've been even better. We grabbed the regular spaghetti and split it between my two sons. Plenty of food, easily enough for two. I did ask about the spaghetti and meatballs since they usually run that as a special, but it wasn't available today. Still, the regular spaghetti held its own with no problem. I also picked up the mixed greens salad, and the vinaigrette is different in the best way. It's flavorful, balanced, and seriously one of the highlights. When I brought it home, my fiancée tried it and immediately said I should've asked for extra. I didn't realize it was going to be that good, but now I know. Pro tip: ask for extra dressing. We grabbed the penne pasta as well, which my fiancée said was great. And once my toddler finished his spaghetti, he went straight to helping her with the penne. That's how you know it's fire. On the side, I ordered the mozzarella sticks -- handmade, big, crispy, and cooked perfectly. I believe it came with about four to six, but they're large and filling. Everything was 10 out of 10. If I could give it a million out of a million, I would. Since I can't, it's a solid five out of five stars every time. Pasta D'Oro for the win.

    FINALLY!!! We moved…read moreto Fairfield 3 years ago. Being Italian it is hard to find a place for me that meets the expectations of what a true Italian food should taste like. I've seen the sign when driving by a few times. Decided tonight to give it a try... I wish I did it sooner. Perfecto! The ambience and decor is very old school Italian restaurant. The wait staff is dressed as such. The dress code is casual (in case you are wondering). Let's get to the staff. They are VERY attentive. The was never a miss with them. Our server checked on us so often. It was nice. I wish I knew her name because she needs recognition! She was AMAZING! My Arnold Palmer was never empty. The support staff made sure our waters were the same way. The ONLY hang up is that bread refills were $3 (something we didn't know). It might be on the menu somewhere. We don't blame them for that but it's good to be advised. The food came out really quick as well and piping hot. Now let's get to the food that is just perfection. There is no kids menus but the portions are so big that the little ones can share off of you. We got our little guy a cheese pizza. I had a slice and it is really good. My son is normally picky but he was not with this pizza. We also had the bruschetta (I should have taken a picture... my fault). They make it on their sourdough. It was a nice twist. My wife and I ordered both fettuccine. She ordered the Alfredo and I ordered the La Strada (both of us added Italian Sausage). The kitchen was moving! It came out hot and perfectly on time after we finished our bruschetta. It was creamy with so much flavor. Even our 3 year old wanted some (good thing the portions are big). We loved it but we wanted room for dessert. Our server boxed it up our food. We ordered the crepes and spumoni. The crepes were so good! At the end of everything was done. My wife and I agreed. We found true Italian food. Definitely will be back. To the owner... Thank you! This experience has been everything we have been looking for.

I visited a week before to check out the restaurant and inquired in their private dining room that fits about 12 people. I made a reservation for 10 people for a Tuesday evening at 6:30pm. No deposit or anything required and they said we can decorate the room. I just brought balloons and a cake, and cut it myself. The food and service were great! We didn't have to wait long, we were seated next to the bar which got kind of loud but wasn't an issue. We got 2 samplers that came with calamari, bruschetta, and caprese mozzarella. We get complimentary bread and my dad wanted garlic bread. I ordered the crab ravioli which was so thick and with shredded pieces of real crab, so good! Items ordered were lasagna di carne, eggplant Parmesan, tortellini, seafood pasta, chicken fettuccine Alfredo. They don't have a kids menu but recommend ordering side orders of things so we got my nephews spaghetti noodles and one meatball and a sausage. They ate all their noodles. And we even ordered a ton of desserts- key lime cheesecake, chocolate cake, crème brûlée, and an affogato. 20% gratuity it was added and our bill for 10 people came out to a little over $500 which I would say was a pretty good price for our large group and we all were very full. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and a bar. There is also plenty of parking! Perfect spot before or after trying to go wine tasting in the Napa Valley.

Now this is the ONLY Italian place I eat, and order for delivery. My first visit was superbly met with a "welcome home" type of customer service. I could say it was because of my boss but I've always been treated warmly. I gotta say, it sure makes a difference. Especially in these times. I only spend my money where I feel valued and welcomed. The ambiance is also appreciated. What do I mean by that? Well, having eaten both indoors and outdoors. I feel great. On a beautiful day such as today I'm sitting outside. When a drove up there were 2 men at one table enjoying the day as well as a group of women enjoying themselves. This time I brought a book to read while I enjoyed my meal. Because I tend to come during non peak hours I am never rushed. The menu is wonderful though admittedly, I tend to stick to a few dishes I truly relish. It doesn't matter if I'm eating in or having delivery. I've never been disappointed. As in never! The sun is warming me inside and out, the music is playing softly in the background. There are multiple tables on this beautiful patio set up in different numbers. It's truly peaceful as I hear birds chirping in the background. I also love that I can come in and say "please bring me whatever you think I'd enjoy." Again, I'm never disappointed and have tried things I'd have never ordered. What's that commercial say? It's like a reward! Dadgum it, I deserve it. So, to the person introducing me to Pieteo's # 2 (who shall remain nameless but lives next door to the owner) thank you! I'm so happy you introduced me. Much love to all the staff, past, present, and future. Growth and clarity happen here
