    'Stop mockin' me' - what a great mocktail!
    Allana D.

    I came here with a large party of adults and kids after leaving the aquarium and, without a rez, they gave us a great table that accommodated everyone's needs. It's very cozy and relaxed inside, they have paper kids menus with crayons, cocktails and mocktails were really good - and I'm picky about my mocktails - and the pizza, particularly the grandma pie, was sooo good. We were starving and Sono Wood Fired was a big hit for everyone in my group.

    Eggplant chips; beet and goat cheese salad

    Really glad to have this gem in the neighborhood. Everything I've ever tried from their menu has been absolutely delicious. The beet salad with fried goat cheese and citrus dressing is one of my favorites; along with the mac and cheese, mozz sticks, pizza, etc. Inside vibes are warm and cozy. Also, they know customer service and can teach some businesses a lesson or two on it - each time I've dined in I've had the pleasure of talking to the nicest people running the scene. Shelly is the sweetest and always takes great care of us, and the owner Bes is always extremely welcoming and greets every table individually. Highly recommend!

    "You say you don't like it But girl, I know you're a liar 'Cause when we kiss, oh Fire" (Bruce Springsteen) Want some wood fired shrimp? How about wood fired chicken? Or wood fired mac and cheese, or wood fired wings, or wood fired meatballs, pizza or even salmon. You can get them all and a lot more at Sono Wood Fired. We had a very nice lunch for three yesterday. When we walked in two cool things on the dining room walls caught our attention. The first was a version of Banksy's iconic Girl with Red Balloon, but the balloon had been replaced by a big round pizza, that was very clever and very cool. The other thing was a painting of music icons (Lennon, Hendrix, Sinatra, Marley, Elvis, etc.) on a dining room wall over a table. Our lunch order was a Pizzaria Salad ($11) with Field Greens, Olives, Pepperoncini, House Lemon Dressing and an "Add On" of Wood Fired Calamari ($7), a Lady Kluck Panini ($17) with a Chicken Cutlet, Fresh Mozzarella, Mayo, Arugula, Fire Roasted Herb Cherry Tomatoes, Onions, Basil Tapenade, and a side of fries, and a Chicken Parmigiana ($25) with Marinara and Mozzarella over Bucatini pasta. My salad was delicious. The calamari was cooked perfectly and not at all tough or rubbery I passed on the salad dressing and just had their marinara sauce on the side and that was excellent. The Lady Kluck was a big sandwich, and the Chicken Parm was enormous, and portions of both came home with us. Service from Sebastian was prompt, friendly, and highly professional. We were very impressed with our visit to Sono Wood Fired.

    I don't ordinarily take the time to write reviews, but we stumbled upon this establishment last minute. My husband two you g boys, & I ordered 3 pizzas:Margherita, Funghi, & Nonna. Looking at this menu i knew it wasn't a typical wood fired pizzeria. The specialty flavors when you read the ingredients to certain dishes made me want to try them all. Pistachio cream, blood orange and ginger vinaigrette, panko crusted goat cheese, etc. i cook like this, but seldom do i find restaurants with unique flavor combinations. I won't try and convince you. Try this place out....or else you're the one missing out. Their food shows they don't NEED the reviews. PS fun lounge music for the dinner/evening crowd

    Whatever you're doing, stop doing it and come to SONO Wood Fired. The pasta was out of this world, both white and red sauces made my life complete. I truly cannot imagine a life where I haven't eaten here. Our waitress Amanda was literally the best I've ever had. 5 big booms for Amanda. The food came quickly and in order and looked DIVINE. The restaurant itself is cozy, well decorated and well managed. Whoever is running the show knows what they're doing and deserves praise.

    This restaurant has it all: AI-generated Bill Murray portraits; pizza names with Wu Tang puns; graffiti-art of Anthony Bourdain; Edison bulbs; inept oil paintings featuring a totally arbitrary selection of dead celebrities; pizza-themed Banksy rip-offs; and a Root Beer Float that costs as much as a Uniqlo t-shirt!

    Fabulous charcuterie!
    Ivanka B.

    Stopped in for a drink and snack before our movie - sat at the bar - love this space! Fiddlehead white ale was yummy and I grabbed a charcuterie plate of prosciutto, burrata and Reggiano (so I could bring half to the theater with me lol). The star of the plate was the (assuming house made) focaccia with olives. I want to order just that right now - I dreamt about it last night - super amazing. Hubs had pappardelle but devoured it before I could sneak a taste lol Everyone who works here is super nice and everything came out rather quickly - definitely a plus when rushing to make a movie. Excited to come back and try the pies - or just a whole platter of focaccia :-)

    I checked out Apizza Spot recently. The pizza was alright, but it was a little undercooked. The mac and cheese, though -- that was straight-up delicious. The place was clean, and the staff were really kind, which I appreciated. It is a bit pricey for what I got, so I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back, but that mac and cheese might pull me in again.

    Sausage pizza

    I'm a pizza girl and I don't easily like everyone's pizza but this one right here is great!! Amazing customer service. Nothing but good vibes. I live an hour away and I would absolutely take the trip just to eat their pizza and have conversations :)

    I read an article about this place months ago and so wanted to try. The chef and owner, Kaba, loves to cook things on an open fire and the pizzas are Neopolitan style. My fave! I was in the area and while I really wanted to experience the pizza in house, time and other constraints led me to order the baked Brie---which I am not sure where you can get anywhere else. The dish was beautifully presented in a cast iron skillet, focaccia bread on the side. The focaccia bread was magnificent alone and so complimentary with the Brie. This is definitely a dish I would recommend sharing with others and other accompanying appetizers. The place had a slight rustic yet modern feel. Wooden tables and flooring, live plants, great natural lighting. The restrooms were clean and well kept .Wood floors needed a sweeping. Service was o.k. but I arrived in the in between time of lunch and dinner so sure lots of prep going on behind the scenes. On street parking in front or in lot behind-which is free. I will be back to try the pizza for sure!

We sat down promptly at 5:30 and it was already packed. Almost every table was full. I'm not sure whether they were short staffed but service was only ok. Our server seemed to disappear for a long time. They took our drink orders and appetizers, which took a while to come out, probably half an hour. They were solid - the meatballs were soft and flavorful, the calamari was good. You could probably skip the baked clams - they were a bit chewy and gritty. The charcuterie board or whatever it's called was fine too. When we finally put our dinner orders in, we were already about an hour into sitting down. I had the "pollo rustico," which was pretty much just chicken scarpariello, which I love. It was very good here too, with big portions. Spicy, the chicken was a bit weird - seemed to be a few pieces instead of a breast. But cooked well. My wife had the eggplant, which was excellent. The food was good, it just took forever. By the time we left, we had been there two hours for apps and entrees. I like taking my time at restaurants, but it just felt like too long, especially with a kid.

    The food wasn't really that good…read more First off we had the "garlic bread" which really wasn't even garlic bread and was just garlic butter on plain bread. had to send it back. The margarita pizza was decent but not the best. I felt that it could have had more spices. The Oreo "pie" that they call which was just a cupcake. Did not taste sweet at all and the cupcake and the icing on it was kind of hard. It's kind of ironic how they said "don't forget the dessert" when there's no dessert on the paper menu. You have to ask the which they only have 2 dessert which is just "Oreo pie" and "cheesecake pie" Plus the waitress didn't really seem nice or approachable and didn't even check up on our table to see how we were doing.

    Famous is special to me, and anyone who grew up in Norwalk. When I was a kid, we'd go to the movies…read moreevery weekend, sometimes we'd actually see a movie, usually we just hung out because we only had enough money for famous pizza, we chose famous over the movie every time. We'd hang outside the movie theatres ina group, as an adult now I'm sure we were annoying lol, but we were bored and we only had enough money for one thing, either famous pizza or a movie ticket, famous always won. After we'd get tired of hanging out we'd walk across the street to famous and put our money together for a medium or large pie, and a few sodas, and we'd hop in a booth, it's one of my favorite memories from those days. We'd always get a sticker from the sticker machine too. And I think there was a gumball machine. I loved this place. And for years it was always my favorite pizza spot. Especially Greek pizza. I chose famous over Jordan's and over uncle joes. To me famous was better, better service, better vibes, felt like a spot that just belonged in Norwalk, for everyone, and the best prices. I've been out of Norwalk a few years now. I'm back today visiting, it's mind blowing how different everything is. All these fancy apartment complexes. Cranes and construction everywhere I turn. But famous is still here. And so is vets park. I ordered a medium extra cheese pizza well done, me and my friend picked it up and went to sit at vets to eat looking over the water. I'm so sad. I don't know what happened but whoever made this pizza didn't care at all and it shows. It has the famous taste. But it's so sloppy. So soggy. So not well done at all, that the actual crust under the cheese was falling apart. I've never had that happen before. I went to pull off a piece that wasn't spilling everywhere, and when I went to lift it from the end of the crust, 1/4 of the actual dough fell right off the slice I was lifting, it literally was so soaked, so mushy and so soaking wet that the dough was falling apart, meanwhile the extra cheese was sliding all over the place, which is why I asked for well done because I know extra cheese means something different to every pizza house so I am always careful to get it well done to make sure the dough cooks strong and crispy enough to handle to moisture and steam that comes from the extra cheese, plus it helps to burn/char the cheese up when it's extra cheese. This wasn't well done at all. It wasn't even normal done for authentic Greek pizza. I'm so bummed. Everything is so different in Norwalk now. I don't recognize it. My mom passed years ago, no siblings, no dad, Norwalk was my only link left and it's gone. I don't know this place anymore at all. So expensive and so fancy. Way out of my league. And sadly famous has changed too. Maybe this was a bad day for them But that's why we put our heart into what we do, because bad days can be the only time someone is able to stop in, and now they're left with a bad experience. I hope for the sake of what this place meant to me, that they find a way through and that they start taking it seriously like the owner used to, because when you have something that special, it deserves to be taken seriously and treated with love and respect and dignity. Famous could easily be the best thing in Norwalk with these prices, if they just put the effort into it. So sad
