The greenery outside of the restaurant is so beautiful and on a beautiful day sitting outside would be a must ! I went to Viron Rondo for lunch with my family and we are glad we did. Although I want to be honest for families with little babies and toddlers. This isn't a family friendly spot. There is no changing tables in the bathroom or tables to place bags on in the bathroom. As a mother- this matters to me so want to help someone else out. The inside is huge and spacious though. The food is freshly made to order in nice huge portions!! Everything was delicious. But we did struggle to get our waitress. Service could use some help as dishes weren't removed from the table until asked. The bread that is provided is soft/flavorful and delicious !!! We got muscles for and appetizer and OmG !! So tender and sauce was so good I couldn't stop dipping the house made bread in it. My mom got the pulpo (octopus) for her lunch with a side of jumbo shrimp. Let me tell you that pulpo was tenderrrrr and one of the best we've ever had !! I had the apple salad with jumbo shrimp! First it's the best salad!! And it can last you for 3 days it's so much!! If they work on service I would so give this place 5 stars. (Oh and my aunt was charged for a club soda with lemon- that's another little downfall) but the martinis were perfectly made and worth the money for sure !!

This place is beautiful and the food okay, but the service is obnoxious and rude…read more Went for our anniversary and was pleased when the host said "Let me start by wishing you guys a happy anniversary!" My wife, must have mentioned it when she made the reservation. If the rest of the staff were so kind, it would've been a great night. The waitress was harsh and cold, and seemed to have a problem whenever we ask for a spoon, a drink, or some bread. She couldn't seem to hide the annoyance on her face. Except when a group of men took the table next to and she fawned over the them for the rest of the night. She must've known it was our anniversary, since the Host made a point of mentioning it, but didn't mention it, so maybe she had a problem with married people. This place has amazing reviews, but I guess it caters to local crowd that doesn't leave Cheshire very often and has been trained to eat mediocre Italian/Mediterranean food that you could easily get at Olive Garden. Left her a 10% tip and I was sorry that I left that much. I should've left zero.

We started with drink and appetizers we had the squash flower stuffed and lightly battled with sauce absolutely delicious and the carpaccio also very good. The portions were huge and desserts very good as well. A bit pricey but very good. Are waiter was so friendly and very attentive. I highly recommend this place . It's very busy so I would recommend making a reservation. They have happy hour specials and I believe it's Monday night ladies night . The atmosphere was very pleasant dim lights and plenty of seating. Our main dishes were salmon , a seafood pasta also had the braised short rib over papadell and orecciatta with sausage and broccoli Rabe , scallops wrapped in bacon and gnocchi. Everyone was pleased with their dish . Enjoy Chris M

If you're thinking of trying this place for the first time- run don't walk. The food is SO good…read more Portions are huge. Drinks are to dieeeee for- especially if you let Diana (pronounced Dee-ah-nuh / Deanna) have creative freedom! (She doesn't miss!) We came here for our friend's birthday- she's been here twice before so it was already vetted by one of our own. (We aren't picky but we like GOOD food, ya know?) If there's something I never mind spending money on- it's AMAZING food, consistent service and a good time vibe with great people. That's exactly what you'll get at Bella'Gio. We went on a Monday night and it was very quiet. The indoor space is well decorated and classy. The bathroom is clean and perfect for group or solo selfies (they have those stunning light up mirrors). The service was fast, efficient, friendly, accurate. All of our orders came out timely and nobody was left waiting long for their dish. We ordered the Calamari Fritti (fried calamari) and added the Gorgonzola and hot cherry peppers. ($23) So delicious and crispy. For entrees, we ordered penne alla vodka $24 (with crispy chicken +$6, with shrimp +$9), chicken Parmesan - substituted with vodka sauce and the linguine alla vodka ($31) and the Shrimp scampi ($30 added chicken +$4). Everything was really yummy! I will say the shrimp scampi wasn't the classic garlic butter lemon scampi I expected, but it was very good! And portions are enough to feed me for several meals. They also serve fresh warm bread with an olive oil (with olives, eggplant, garlic confit, etc) that was soooo savory and perfect. Now onto the funnnnn stuff. Dianaaaaaa girl. Our bartender for the night and for life! Such a sweet, fun, sassy spirit! She made our whole night. In facttttt we realized too late that the outdoor eating area is stunnnnnning - fire pit and all! But how grateful am I that we didn't know that because sitting at the booth right next to the bar, we got to have tableside bar service from the best bartender I've had in a while. Personality and execution. On point. Give her some creative freedom and she will have so much fun with your cocktails. Tell her exactly what you want and which flavor profiles you prefer- and she's got something up her sleeve for you! We had so many variations of fruity frozen margaritas (hard to find these days, most restaurants we frequent only do classic margaritas on the rocks). Frozen margarita flavors we had were fresh strawberry, raspberry, guava passion fruit, another raspberry with a lemon twist... I ordered the Limoncello (my favorite and it absolutely delivered), we also had a whiskey sour, an espresso martini (MY FAVE) and the sorrento margaritas. (A classic margarita with lemon instead of lime, very fresh and refreshing.) Lina was our server and she was incredible. She cut our cake for us and she was just so amazing. She answered all of our questions about the menu and made great recommendations. She even recorded a video of us singing happy birthday to our friend and she was such a delight. We will absolutely be back to celebrate another milestone soon. Bella'Gio was the perfect experience for us. We had such a great time and will be singing our girls' praises for years to come. Thank you for having us!!!

Disappointed in Bella'gios. This pains me to leave a poor review after so many good…read moreones/experiences but this cannot go unmentioned. Preparing lab engineered/processed chicken and trying to pass it off as a chicken cutlet is just sad and a little pathetic. We've been going to Bella'gios for 2 years now since moving back to CT and I have had the chicken parm dinner twice before via take out and a few times at the restaurant. This was NOT chicken. Not in the ACTUAL sense that it came from an ACTUAL farm, from an ACTUAL living chicken. This was processed, lab engineered McDonalds processed-nugget 'quality'. From the first bite I could tell this wasn't what I had at least 5 times prior. I ONLY eat poultry and fish/seafood. I have a severe texture issue with meats and haven't consumed mammal meat since 1986! The slightest variation will stand out within the first bites. Needless to say I won't be ordering take out from Bella'gios in the future and we're not sure we will be visiting the restaurant in the near future as well as this has turned us off from the menu now. Posted are some photos of the 1/8 to 3/16 artificial cutlet. The cutlets use to be moist and succulent and the chicken practically melted in your mouth. This questionable substance was like chewing on a sponge after it had dried out. Im giving 2 stars because my spouses shrimp scampi was 'okay'. Otherwise it would have only been one. Do better.

They stayed busy with calls and customers coming in and now after having a couple slices I know why. I'm not even sure what slices I picked, I both had bacon on them and one was a white pizza slice, and though I was worried because it was nearly 8 pm at night and who knows how long they had been sitting on display I wasn't in the mood to go somewhere else. Fast forward to my wife and I getting to our hotel and opening up the box and taking a bite, I smiled, it was one of the best bites of pizza I've ever had from NY to Italy to Germany to all over the US. My wife had one of their chicken sandwiches which was delicious too.

Decided to try Noto Americano for the 1st time for Father's Day takeout. We ordered the Chicken…read moreParmigana, Lemon Bay Chicken and a Meatball Grinder. The price for takeout for these (3) things were on the high side to not include a side salad. With that said, we were aware that those weren't included as it wasnt listed on their online ordering. We just figured the portion for both Entrees were likely larger and thats why you paid a la carte for the salad. We come back home with the takeout and to our surprise for quite a high price, the portions were small. How small, each meal fit with pasta inside a plastic container, similar to those used for Asian takeout. For any other restaurant that serves Chicken Parmigana, its always been a larger round metal dish with pasta on the side. Typically with 2 pieces of chicken. Putting portion aside as one can argue that we may have been able to find that out before ordering, the (2) entrees were not great. The Chicken Parmigana had one piece of chicken and the chicken was charred, dry, minimal amount of cheese and the both the chicken and pasta itself had a scarce amount of pasta sauce. I found myself having to scrub the side of the dish for any sauce left. The lemon bay chicken was also quite dry and unfortunately the mixture of recip (chicken, pasta and sauce) was quite tasteless. I'm not typically one to leave a 1 or 2 star reviews often, as I'd rather just not go again to the place where I had said experience but between the quality of food, price and portion, this place falls into a bit of an exception for me. Look, I've eaten at many places, if your portions are going to small for the price (and without sides), then the quality needs to EXCEED the excepted regional standard for that dish to justify that reasoning. This experience did not do that, instead we are left with half of take home container of each meal that we will have to toss in trash for Fathers Day.
