    Shrimp Cocktail
    Marlon T.

    First time here and it is worth every penny. We will definitely be back for the vibes, ambiance, service and exceptional food. We had a craving for good quality steak and the Americano served us with cooked to the right temperature for our Hanger steak with chimichurri and Tenderloin with Sherry Dijon, those sauces paired with the steak were immaculate. Before we got to the steak, we started with the shrimp cocktail that fresh with a cute bottle of Tabasco lol and the Burrata was melted to your taste buds to go along with the tomato jam and prosciutto (gluten free, they have options for a good handful of dishes too!). Side note: We also loved speakeasy Sunday, half off on drinks! Yes, please we will back on Sundays!

    The Americano is a favorite! This place is such a vibe with indoor and outdoor seating. Martini hour, restaurant week specials, and overall killer menu! Inside gives off a typical cocktail bar vibe, a bit rustic but upscale with a modern flare which is perfect for after work drinks, date night, or simply a good meal. Looking forward to exploring more of their menu!

    What an awesome spot. We came here for brunch on Sunday and came back to check out their Martini Happy Hour. The food was really good, from the presentation to the actual taste. The cocktails were specially designed and made to perfection. The staff were knowledgeable about items on the menu and made great recommendations. The mixologist was on point with making exceptional cocktails. Americano is definitely worth the visit.

    I've dined here several times over the past year plus. I'm struggling with where to land this review rating-wise because the food and drinks are always really great. Service, however, can be extremely hit or miss. I feel like 4 stars is appropriate because most of the time, it's a hit -- but when it's a miss, you almost feel abandoned at your table... The couple of times this has happened, the server was also very rude. Again, 90% of the time, really great and wonderful service experience, too. Additionally, it can get very loud in the restaurant and I'm relatively soft-spoken, so it can be very difficult for me to communicate with the servers. The experience at the bar has always been so lovely. Both the outdoor patio and indoor seating... Great vibe, great lighting. I've dined here enough, solo and in groups, to have had all of the following: To sip: - Espresso Martini: Very good espresso martinis here! - Manhattan: Classic. Great. - Agave Club: Good, sweet (as expected). - Socialite: Good. They make a good, classic Negroni and the red wine offerings are good. I'm not a huge CA wine person, but their Chianti on the menu from Italy is good. Must be medium-high in sulfite levels though because I do tend to get a little stuffy... but that's ok. :) To eat: - Burrata: Delicious but you really cannot go wrong here. - Charcuterie Board: Great to share. - Rock Shrimp Bao Buns: Ordered once. I continue to do without. They are really good but for me, personally, there's better on the menu. - Oysters: Basic but delicious selection. I just love oysters. - Organic Scottish Salmon: Very good. - Black Pot Mussels - Manieri: Amazing mussels and that white wine to accompany... Perfect. - Hanger Steak: Yum. - Greens and Quinoa Salad: Love it, very sesame-forward. If you do not like sesame, do not order. If you love it, go for it. - Spicy Lobster Fettucini: This is SO. GOOD. Have ordered this several times... Once, I had it two nights in a row dining in and I love it every time. Really good pasta dish and the amount of lobster is generous and the delicate flavor, surprisingly, does not get lost. Always plated beautifully. To end: - Caramel Brioche: REALLY great dessert; decadent. - Ricotta Cheesecake Brûlée: Amazing. The blueberry marmalade is so good.

    Holy cheese pull!

    Dined at the Americano during Stamford Restaurant Week and had a lovely experience. The servers here are super attentive -- we received 10/10 hospitality which made our experience so pleasant! They have a wide variety of food options on their menu. I tried the salmon and my husband had the sous vide chicken. We also started off with a French onion soup which was amazingg! Probably the best I've ever had. Everything we had tasted really great. However I do wished they browned or roasted the chicken a bit more. It was a bit light for my personal preference. Other than that we enjoyed our whole experience and will definitely be back to try more of their menu options.

    Great place to walk from over by the Marriott hotels. We had the burger, Gnocchi and some great cocktails. We sat at the bar and Steven was our bartender and was very friendly and had great food and drink recommendations. Hoping to be back.

    Nashville chicken
    Dana L.

    We started with the charcuterie which was a bit overpriced. The Nashville Chicken Sandwich was good but wasn't Nashville hot. The fries were very good and topped with old bay seasoning. Ended with a tiramisu espresso martini which was a very good way to end the meal. The staff were very welcoming.

    Corned beef hash

    Really cute place with a nice drink selection and variety of menu options. The corned beef hash was good but could have done without the hollandaise. The check took a while to come but overall service was good and friendly!

    Was super excited to try this new spot and was unfortunately disappointed. The decor is beautiful and the bar has ample space to fit a crowd on a busy night. However, I got served the wrong drink twice after receiving slow service at the bar. The two pasta dishes we got were awful. The pasta was bizarrely thick which I have never experienced before, along with the fact that it was barely cooked. The portions were ridiculously small considering the high price of each dish. Hopefully, the restaurant can improve with practice because I really wanted to like it.

    Americano, where have you been all my life? More truthfully, why had it taken so long for me to enjoy this incredible happy hour? After having a great lunch (super lunch specials) here several weeks ago, our amazing server, Luis, said we needed to come back for the happy hour. That happened this past Saturday. COME ON! Being a connoisseur of fine happy hours they have THE BEST I have encountered this year. Our bartender Jay shook up an incredible $and perfect $10 martini (and the "well" liquor is no joke") plus $10 oysters, mussels and sticky wings I am a disciple

    We wondered in on a Friday after seeing a movie. The restaurant has a very charming modern vibe. We weren't that hungry so we split 3 apps (and didn't finish the salad it was so big) the Burrata was delicious, the apple and goat cheese salad was a little over dressed and I thought there should have been more apples in it considering the name, and the shrimp cocktail was nice. Our waiter was wonderful, and perfectly attentive, the food came out very fast. I would def go back.

    A gaggle of peeps sure to be back!

    We loved this spot! Met some friends for Happy Hour specials and were really impressed. The place itself is lovely- clean w snazzy decor. We sat at the bar- service was ultra polite & friendly. Loved the cocktail specials (myself having the Raspberry Thyme w muddled raspberries & thyme reduction) A+! Food was great too! The gnocchi was OUTSTANDING- and I'm a gnocchi stickler :). Wings... French onion soup... oysters... muscles- all great and our group was without complaint! Will certainly be back!

The low light ambiance and music was definitely giving adults-only vibes. What I really liked was being able to talk and hear because the volume level of the music was just right.

He had quite a friendly and genuine demeanor about him (sorry, I don't remember his name but he wore glasses and had dark hair). The margarita pizza, wine, and desserts (didn't have lava cake so I tried their chocolate mousse) were delightful to indulge.

But when my entree came it was so disappointing. I ordered the hanger steak cook medium. It was cooked to temp but had to be the chewiest steak Ive ever had. The steak knife wouldnt even cut through it. The knife basically ripped the steak apart. It also came with the largest broccolini I have ever seen. It was basically broccoli but ultimately was under cooked for how large the stalks were. I did try the desserts but they looked good.

Once we were seated the waiter arrived asking about drinks which we declined in favor of bottled water, i ordered coffee as well and was offered 1 whole cup. Nobody came around for refill the rest of the meal We each ordered an appetizer and a main, both of our mains featuring 2sunny side up. 15 -20 minutes later BOTH entrees and my appetizer arrive WTF? After that our server just seemed to disappear. My daughter had hangar steak & eggs. I had the pork carnitas and eggs. Both our order's eggs were ordered sunny side up. Typically it's the yolks that are runny but both of our orders had runny whites as well. All this time we waited on the other appetizer to arrive. For a place that was not very busy the service was galactically awful. The food was passable but not great. The banana bread appetizer arrived as the busboy came to take our entree dishes. And that was after 2 reminders to our waiter (both appetizers were taken to go). Whoever is running this place (nobody game by asking how our meal was) should be embarrassed. When i spoke with our waiter about the abysmal service he passed it off on the busboy! There is no sense of teamwork nor pride in doing a good job. Sad.

All three were fantastic. The breakfast pizza had us craving more, and the oysters were fresh, delicious, and delicately shucked. I tried the chilaquiles and the short rib hash. The chilaquiles were very good, despite being a bit different from the red-sauce version I'm used to. But omg, the short rib hash was SO GOOD. This is an absolute killer dish. I've never been a huge fan of hollandaise sauce, but they put it on the side for me, and honestly, it blended extremely well with the flavors of the hash. The "5 O'Clock Somewhere" cocktail is refreshing and gave me a very light buzz that paired well with the delicious options we ordered. The staff is friendly and very attentive, and the spot itself is very clean, spacious, and stunning. I would definitely visit this spot again.
