Calamari Posillipo
Claudine R.

Just updating my review.. pizza was great as always with generous toppings. However, the penne vodka was so bland, dry and not enough sauce, see photo. I was looking forward to the dish and was really disappointed. How can an Italian restaurant mess up penne vodka, it's just pasta and sauce for $17, and it was not worth it and felt compelled to update my review. Ate as much as I can since I hate wasting money but had to throw away half of it. It was not good. I should've heed the other reviewer that said it wasn't good. Hence, I have to downgrade to 3 stars.

John's Best is always a safe option when you don't want to make dinner. I can only vouch for the pizza because that's all we ever get, not sure about their other dishes. Our favorite go to is Chicken Bacon Ranch. That's always good. We've tried a few others, they are hit or miss. The crust is good and they're usually super fast to make our order so we always have had hot pizza.

Sicilian Pizza with pepperoni and spicy Italian sausage

We have been trying to find a go to pizza place near us and I think we finally have found it! We enjoyed our Sicilian Pie and are looking forward to trying other items off the menu. Staff was very friendly when we picked it up.

Large cheese with pepperoni
Olivia R.

Fo a chain pizza restaurant they have pretty good pizza. Very cheesy and the the crust is soft and doughy. Which I don't mind sometimes. . Only complaint is the owner could be a little kinder or fake a smile. C'mon! --. I understand people have off days. But this is the second tome in a row. Thought it was me, but I have heard similar stories as well. Large cheese 12.95 1 topping 2.95 7 slices ...

Wow, it's getting really tough to stand by this place right now, and the scuttlebutt amongst the…read morelocals confirms I'm not alone in this opinion. It's getting more and more disappointing every time I go. One time recently, I ordered the Jesse Burger, which was a classic from the old menu. It had shrunken drastically in size. Okay, I can never finish a burger anyway, and I didn't finish this one either. But while Old Ancient Mariner's burgers weren't exactly the best around, this one was dry and just trying to look fancier, an absolute downgrade. But worst of all, the scallops were absolutely terrible, and for around $38 I believe. I was excited to try them, but they were undersized and chewy, and the cauliflower purée underneath was grainy and disgusting. It barely qualified as a side at that price point anyway. What is this new owner doing??? We're all whispering about it in Ridgefield and taking bets. I really hope he turns it around. Right now, I can't recommend it for anything but booze with townies, if they even keep going.

The calamari was very good too, and we also got fish and chips, which had yummy crunchy shoe string fries with 3 light and crispy cod fish. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area. A great place to eat before you check out a show at the Ridgefield Playhouse. The place is cute, needs a little updating that rug- but it was clean and comfortable.

I know...five stars for a family restaurant? Yep…read more Yes, there are prettier places. Yes, parking is challenging. Yes, tableware is all about function over looks. But you'd have to pay twice as much at every other local place that might tick the above boxes. At Giselle's, a memorable meal is quite affordable. The early bird special was outstanding. There were enough choices for our party of three -all under $18. Diners can also choose from the main menu. We intend to do this next time. My husband loved his scampi. I can't say enough for the waitstaff. They were friendly yet efficient. Some were moving so fast they appeared to be on roller skates! Go. You won't be disappointed. As I mentioned , if you are all in on the niceties...go somewhere else. But be prepared to pay double the typical Gisella bill.

Let's start with what they do right. The place has that classic Italian restaurant feel cozy, welcoming, and clearly built for family-style dining. You can tell right away why people like it. Service tends to be friendly, portions are solid, and it checks that "comfort food" box. But The BEAST isn't here for vibes alone... helpful definitely, but we're here for the food. And this is where things level out. The dishes especially staples like chicken parm come out looking the part, but flavor-wise? It's a little one-dimensional. The sauce leans heavy and slightly flat, lacking that bright, fresh tomato punch you want in a strong Italian kitchen. It fills you up, sure but it doesn't leave a lasting impression. There's also a bit of that "quantity over precision" feel. Big portions are great, but when you're sitting at a 4.7-star reputation, expectations jump and this doesn't quite match that level of execution.
