Monaco&#x27;s Ristorante

This is an incredible place!…read more Right from the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel like family. After moving to a town in Massachusetts about half an hour north of Mario's, we were thrilled to discover this restaurant since we came from an area known for outstanding dining, Mario's keeps up to that standard. The staff, the food, and the overall atmosphere are fantastic! I can honestly say I recently enjoyed one of the best meals of my life here; they never let us down. I can't say enough good things about this place, a must try!!!

Mario's in Winsted is one of those rare restaurants that doesn't just feed you -- it adopts you…read more The chefs, the owners, the servers... these people make the place feel like home in a way that should honestly be studied by scientists. If comfort had an address, it would be Mario's. We always kick things off with a small pizza for the table, because that's the law here. The bread and tomato relish? Should be sold by the gallon. I would pay an irresponsible amount of money for it. If you know, you know. Last night's table lineup was elite: * One of us ordered the veal Neapolitan -- fresh, tender veal in a vodka sauce so good it should have its own fan club. * Another went for the penne alla vodka with shrimp and scallop, which was hands‑down the best dish of the night. The seafood takes an already top‑tier vodka sauce and somehow makes it even better. As a Jersey boy, I don't say that lightly. * I decided to go rogue and step outside my usual penne vodka or steak. I wanted veal parm. I've never had anything fried here besides the calamari (which is amazing), so I figured: why not? Here's the plot twist: The veal parm was the only dish I've ever had at Mario's that didn't hit the usual Mario's standard. The veal itself was totally different from the fresh, delicious cut in the Neapolitan, and the breading had a little... funk. Almost like it had been prepped ahead and picked up a freezer‑burn vibe. Not bad -- just not Mario's‑level magical. But here's the thing: One imperfect dish doesn't change the fact that Mario's is one of our all‑time favorite restaurants. The atmosphere, the people, the consistency, the warmth -- it's all unbeatable. We love this place and will absolutely be back, probably embarrassingly soon. Mario's is home. Even when one dish misses, the experience never does.

Only gripe with service was that organization wasn't quite optimal. At the time we had picked up our food, it was very busy, so that makes sense. The food was great.

I've heard very mixed reviews as of late, but honestly this was one of the most underrated dining experiences I've had in a while. Great job to the staff over at Kent!

We had ordered a large veggie pizza and it was horrible. It was so soggy and barely edible. On top of this the veggie pizza description on their website does not include tomatoes, which both my wife and I love tomato sauce but dislike tomato's as a whole and they had tomato slices on this. We use to love Sophia's , but the last few times we have had this it was barely edible. Sophia's, there are way too many good pizza places around and you need to rethink your pizza program and do better. We have been patrons of Sophia's for many years but we are done. Good luck in your future.

There's a small menu board up on the wall behind the counter that is pretty hard to read, we had better luck reading the hand written paper signs taped to the showcase. A Ham and Cheese and an Italy's Best (Genoa salami, Proscuitto, Cappicola, fresh mozzarella, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, roasted red peppers, hot cherry peppers, and oil and vinegar) were $8.50 each. As we waited for the sandwiches to be prepared I, walked around the store and checked out the aisles of canned goods, and groceries. We also saw a small freezer with raviolis, gnocchis and sausages My Italy's best was pretty good -great flavor with an average portion size of meats. Customer service was odd - neither sandwich was cut in half and I don't think I've ever had a sandwich on a hard roll that wasn't cut in half. We popped some cash into the tip jar and that was met with either silence or indifference, and that always grinds my gears.

In about 3 seconds, we knew we'd be buying something here. We saw a nice variety of breads, pastries, cakes, cookies, and muffins. Some were GF. We ended up with a small loaf of Lemon Blueberry bread ($6) and a Cinnamon Roll ($5). The Lemon-Blueberry bread was more like a poundcake than a bread, and it sure was a delicious poundcake at that. It was super moist and very lemony, and since we split it, half of that $6 loaf made for a very yummy and satisfying dessert. The Cinnamon Roll was everything one would want in a Cinnamon Roll! It had sweet flaky pastry layered with that addictive sticky/gooey cinnamon filling, and it was crowned with a light layer of vanilla icing. Pure excellence, and a Simple Delight, indeed.
