My wife and I came here during happy hour and had a great experience. We sat at the bar and ordered cocktails which were great. The bar staff made good drinks and we tried some of the food which we enjoyed too. Very nice meatballs, we liked them very much. The sauce was delicious. I think we'll come back for a meal soon as the place seemed like the entrees would be pretty good! read more

Came by on a Monday night with some friends to get dinner and take advantage of the 1/2 priced wine bottles deal. We started off with the truffle fries, mozzarella sticks, and bread. They were all very yummy and decent sized portions (i've attached photos). We then ordered 2 bottles of wine. Both were $14-20 or so. For our main course we decided to split a few dishes and go family style - which I'd definitely recommend! We got a half cheese and half pepperoni pizza, which was good, but nothing to write home about. We also got the large chicken parm and large penne alla vodka which were both delicious! I'd definitely recommend Romanacci if you're looking for a nice dinner spot! The service was great and there's lots of seating available. read more

Recently checked out Romanacci. We were promptly seated. The place was quite decked out in holiday decor it was cute. We placed our drink order and appetizers, the mozz sticks and the garlic knots. Both came out fast. Mozz sticks were crunchy and great. Their sauce is good too! Garlic Knots were decent but were cold. We wished they were warm. My SO got his usual cheese pizza and I decided on a Insalata Della Casa and a tapas portion of the chicken scarpariello. Both were good. I like that they have smaller portions of their dishes so you can try multiple things. Service was friendly too. read more

A trendy spot in Fairfield, in these cold days is cozy and festive having a drink on the bar and ordering some small paltes to share, is one of the places i frequent while in Connecticut. The staff is cordial and attentive to your request. I enjoy the chef special usually pick them and never go dissapointed. I like the cocktails menu, adapted for the different season, that makes me wonder which one will try next. Recently redecorated the terrace and is anothe unique spot to enjoy a dinner with friends of family read more

Romanacci - Fairfield - Happy hour 3-6p - Pizza Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

I drive past this place often and I finally decided to give it a try. It turns out I picked the perfect day as they have all day happy hour on Tuesdays. I ordered the large chicken parmigiana since I wasn't sure the tapas version would be enough. We ordered 2, one with pasta and one without. The no pasta version came with a side of veggies and potato wedges, the pasta version came with just the chicken and the pasta, a little odd but it was good. I also ordered the spicy broccoli rabe as a veggie side and it's was great I definitely recommend. read more

Oh man. I don't know if I should review this without trying them for a second shot. I ordered the fried ravioli and penne à la vodka. The penne was absolutely dry! The ravioli was absolutely stale or undercooked during delivery. I had it from DoorDash! Overall? Hmm. Even with their happy time recommendations on DoorDash... I do not know that I would return. read more

Romanacci - Fairfield - So sad, lol - Pizza Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

I ordered a lunch delivery based on the stellar reviews---most of which I have discovered to be false. I ordered the Caesar salad, penne alla vodka, home made bread. Yelp alerted me that my food was out for delivery, but waited..,.and waited...,and waited. No call, text, email. Radio silence. Famished and in between work meetings, I finally checked at the door and there was a bag with now a lukewarm pasta dish and a lukewarm salad. Yuck. The salad had NO dressing on it nor on the side. There were at most 5 shaved Parmesan pieces in a sea of Romaine. 5 stale croutons all in a PFAS leaching plastic container way too big for its contents. Penne alla vodka was great, but the price was ridiculous for the tapa size. The homemade bread was so disappointing. Hard, tasteless. Delivery and service deliveries are way too high (on top of expected tip). Fake or fraudulent reviews to boost a rating is a low down and seriously misleading ploy and an epic fail when the food and service do not live up to even mediocre standards. read more

Our go to pie place especially for anchovies and pepperoni. The marinara pie is also a favorite. I've tried a few non-pizza items and let's say, pizza is always the star. Stick with pies and you can't go wrong. We've never eaten in but takeaway is always easy and the food stays hot. read more

When in Fairfield, everyone will tell you that for pizza you must have Sally's or PePe's or venture out to New Haven for 'real' apizza. Yes. Those places are fine. But if you want excellent pizza plus amazing salads, fresh pastas, and delicious after meal treats, then Romanacci is your place. I'd done my research. So after a long campus tour, I bee lined to the restaurant with the kiddo. I was a bit wary at first. The parking lot was a bit sketchy as was the strip mall beside it. But the moment we walked inside, we were transported into a calming yet trendy Italian eatery. There is a lot of rough hewn wood, mossy accoutrements and stylized wine bottles - tastefully done. It is quite spacious with a patio and inside dining plus the bar area. The service was amazing. It's been a long time since I've been about to enjoy a leisurely lunch. One during which I could savor my food, enjoy conversation, and simply feel at ease. Our server was attentive and friendly. The table service was well executed. We were able to relax and enjoy the experience of a mom and daughter day out. As for the meal? Wow! I ordered the Arugula & Mela salad. It was full of vibrant greens, chopped apple and celery, slivered almonds and an abundance of shaved hard cheese. It was tossed in a light citrus-tinged dressing. It was delicious. I could have probably ordered a protein with it and made it my meal. But I was too tempted by the pasta selection. So I ordered a tapas sized portion of the strozzapreti with pancetta and black pepper. As my grandmother used to say, I almost swallowed my tongue it was so good. The pasta was al denté and coated with the lightest amount of a velvety sauce. It was very much a cacio e Pepe with pancetta. Sooooo good. The kiddo ordered a classic pizza and she smiled from ear to ear. She is not at all fond of New Haven's penchant for charred crusts. But she does love the crispy yet slightly chewy type of crust that was served to her by Romanacci. She ate the entire pizza not because she was super hungry but because it was so delicious that she didn't want to waste it, which frankly would have happened during our later car ride. To quote her, she had 'regrets, but not because of the pizza. [Her] belly was so full that [she] didn't have room for dessert.' But I had room, so I ordered an espresso and a crème brûlée. The espresso was silky and strong. The crunchy sugar shell over the creamy vanilla custard was absolutely delightful and a perfect size for one. Or in our case one and a half - the kiddo couldn't help herself but taste it. My regret was that I didn't also order a half dozen biscotti to-go when I saw them displayed near the rear door. All in all, this was a fantastic place for lunch. Excellent on all marks and we will absolutely return when we are next in Fairfield this fall. read more

The service was good but the food was meh. The broccoli rabe was bland and the zucchini fries were so thin that it was just breaded dripping with oil and the chicken cutlet pizza was mid because the chicken cutlet itself was almost too burned. I was disappointed in the food as a whole and I don't think I will come back. read more

My boyfriend and I absolutely love Romanacci's! While I've only tried the pizza, it's consistently fantastic. You can tell the ingredients are super fresh, and the staff is always wonderful. Yes, parking can be a bit tight, and it gets pretty crazy on weekends, but honestly, that just shows how popular and delicious this place is. To me, their pizza is a true delicacy! read more

Nice stop for some Italian food in Fairfield. Enjoyed the covered patio area. Menu was large with lots of good options. We had the fresh bread, mozzarella sticks, fries and penne vodka with chicken cutlet to share. Everything was tasty and came out very quickly! Service was friendly and attentive, and explained things well. Prices were fair too. read more

Romanacci - Fairfield - Penne Vodka Piatto - Pizza Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

We got take out from here. Ordered an XXl pizza and some salads. We were all so disappointed . The pizza was almost as good as the Big Y party pizza. Had zero flavor. It could have been jarred sauce on the box it came in and it would have tasted the same. The salad was small and the lettuce was wilted. It tasted ok but was nothing special. I'm not sure what people like about this place. read more

Ordered the Pollo fior Di Latte Piatto with a SIDE PENNE and Homemade Bread for delivery. The food was fresh. My favorite was the bread. The pasta was very basic dare I say flavorless. The chicken was tasty and pretty cheesy . If I give them another try, I would select a different pasta or pizza. The prices were high but it's Fairfield. read more

The food was delicious! Love the atmosphere. There were a lot of options on the menu, I would definitely come back to try more dishes. read more

My current favorite casual restaurant. Love the waiter Luis! He's always attentive. Love the food and service. My husband loves the small plates. He's a pasta fiend and can never decide which to get. Here he'll get 2 small plates of different pastas and he's in heaven. They make an awesome linguine and white clam. Probably one of the best I've ever had. I love the octopus. Grilled to perfection. And great crisp and cold salads . Can't say enough good things about it. read more

The vibe was lovely and our servers were attentive and friendly. However the food was terrible-- I ordered Veal Milanese and the breading was something other than breadcrumbs!?! And was devoid of any seasoning. It was not accompanied by arugula or lemon and was served with an oily bunch of romaine. It was inedible. Also the pasta gricia was described as made with pecorino Romano pancetta and black pepper. It arrived with butter and a few pieces of underdone store bacon. No cheese. No pepper. Won't be going back. read more

Visiting relatives who were not hungry for dinner we found Romanaccis down the road from our hotel. Had Linguine pasta sautéed with little neck clams, STROZZAPRETI GRICIA Twisted pasta, pancetta, pecorno cheese, black peppers and SCIALATELLI SCAMPI. All were fabulous. Services was great too! immediately called my cousins (who live in Fairfield) and told them to be sure and check this place out! What a find!!! read more

Tried takeout for the first time. Picante and Tartufo pizza were DELICIOUS! The subtle truffle taste on the Tartufo was perfect and makes me excited to try the truffle fries next time. Atmosphere looks inviting. It was easy to pick up thanks to designated pick up parking spot. Food was warm and ready with friendly service. After scrumptious take-out and a positive pick up, we are looking forward to trying the eat-in restaurant experience! read more

I usually am pretty forgiving when it comes to brunch. This is the exception... We arrived pretty much at open, we're the only table in there for a while. Drinks came out okay, we put in our orders. My partner ordered the hanger steak and eggs, with steak medium. First the steak wasn't even close to medium, it was so over cooked. Second pretty sure it wasn't even the hanger steak cut, it looked like a pork chop. We told the waiter and were pretty much told "sorry it happens a lot, do you want a free cannoli?" Pretty unacceptable from a hospitality stand point. read more

Our party ordered garlic knots, baked mac n cheese, linguini with clams, cacio e pepe, and ravioli. The mac n cheese was 100% Kraft, which is fine, but not what I expect at a (nice?) Italian restaurant. The linguini and clams were bland, bland, and more bland. The rest was good, but not great. And our bill was over $100 with just two beers. There are better options for that money in the area. Would not return and highly recommend you spend your hard-earned dollars elsewhere. read more

LOVE Romanacci. Always go to the Trumbull one this one if Fairfield is so much bigger but the food NEVER disappoints. Love going here for sure with the kids or a date night read more

Date night!!! It is nearly always fun to find a new restaurant close to home for date night. The only less than amazing thing to say is that it is a bit loud there. After that, it is awesome! We each had a glass of the house label Montepulciano. I could use a lot of wine speak, but it is better to just say it was delicious! My wife had the Arugula and Mela salad and the Cacio e Pepe. Loved both. We consider ourselves fans of cacio e pepe since my food professional cousin sent us to eat it when we visited Rome a few years ago. It was really good! I had the ceasar salad and a tapas portion of Pollo Scarparielo. I love this dish. Their sausage was amazing. I don't usually say that - so many places have the same generic sausage. This tasted fantastic! Jen, our server was delightful. We are definitely coming back! read more

Boring food. Not bad tasting, but nothing original. Everything has a base of arugula.

So yummy and really nice staff! I like how the restaurant is set up, very nice atmosphere!

Excellent , did my daughters family weekend at school there 28 of us they treated us very well food was great.

First time trying Romanicci and we visited with a party of 15. The service was excellent, especially for a large party. We tried the calamari, garlic knots, fried ravioli, Cacio e Pepe, a few different pizza's and all of the food and drinks were great. Highly recommend. read more

I made a reservation for a group of seven. The restaurant was very accommodating. They set up a nice table for us in the front of the restaurant by the window. We all really enjoyed our selections which were eggplant rollatini, chicken parm, meatballs, short rib, and penne vodka! I can also recommend the sangria and especially the desserts! I had been here a few times before with a smaller party, and knew they offered biscotti for dessert, which I was looking forward to. Sometimes you just want a few tasty cookies with your coffee! My brother and his son had the Italian cheesecake, and they said it was really delicious. To top it off, two others in my party enjoyed fabulous looking (and large!) crêpes. This restaurant offers small sizes, tapas, if you'd like. I had a salad and a tapas size chicken, which was perfect for me. I really enjoyed the option of the smaller size. We are Italian and not easily pleased with Italian food that we eat out, but we do like Romanacci very much! It's a solid neighborhood restaurant. We were welcomed and treated very warmly. The waitstaff was attentive to our group throughout the dinner. This is a good place to go with your family that doesn't break the bank and offers good quality food. Next time I'm going to have the pizza, which I had once before and which was delicious! I live in Black Rock, and this restaurant is very close. I am really glad they came to Fairfield! read more

WHEW! I love the Westport location and have been ordering delivery from there for years. When I heard about the Fairfield location, which is much closer to me, I couldn't have been more excited. The only, BIG, question: would it be as good as the Westport one? Friends, I'm here to report, YES it is! Fantastic pizza - I could eat it every day. read more

Romanacci - Fairfield - Large sausage pizza - Pizza Near Me - Fairfield, Connecticut

I had the worst meal ever at this restaurant. I ordered linguine and clams only to find out that the clams were raw and not cooked. They were arranged around the plate of pasta. Who does that? You also have to pay for bread. Again, who does that? The pasta was also undercooked and dry. The server appeared to be annoyed the minute we walked in and the service from that point on was not at all welcoming. I have never written a restaurant review. This was such a bad experience I just had to. read more

We had dinner there last night. From cocktails, to wine, to appetizers, main course and dessert, everything was amazing. I would say that our group enjoyed a variety of dishes including pizza, lamb chops, pasta and desserts. Everything was so well prepared. They just opened and service was a tad inconsistent but this is perhaps because the restaurant was packed. The servers were so personable and I am sure that this will be remedied. We will surely be back to this nostalgic location ( The Old "Apizza Center"). read more

Great food and service! Scampi was great! They were very welcoming to our large party of 19
