They have special desserts that really are for 2-4 people not 1. They do love to celebrate birthdays with the whole staff singing! The menu is very strict and they would not just bring 1 pancake for the toddler at our table at whatever the cost or an extra bowl of fruit. Both of the items were part of a bigger meal that would have been wasted if ordered.

Super surprised that it wasn't slammed. We walked right in at lunch time and were just about the only ones there. The menu is overwhelming. I feel like I'd need to eat here for like a month straight to actually try everything that I want to. My son eats like a bird so he stuck to the "basic" menu and got the cookies and cream waffle. That was breakfast, lunch and dessert all in one. They did not skip on the crushed oreos. My daughter and I needed to see some of the viral dishes for ourselves so we stuck to the Social Media section of the menu. She got the Fried Chicken Mac N Cheese burrito and I got the Smash Wrap. Neither one of us finished even half of our mains. They are huge! Bigger isn't always better but the quality was not lost in the size. They were also delicious. We both loved the mac n cheese filling. Our waitress was super sweet and when she found out we were traveling, she threw in some complimentary "famous" cinnamon sugar donuts for the ride. I forgot to get a pic of those, but they were nice and fresh, even after we waited a few hours before eating them because we just about rolled out of there after eating so much. We will have to stop back in another time to share one of the gigantic milkshakes.

I have wanted to visit Wave Hill in Norwalk for a while, but I live an hour away. But Lucky Me…read more They were at the Chester Sunday Market when I recently visited. I bought a Seeded Semolina bread, a Rosemary Focaccia, a Demi Baguette, chocolate chip cookies, an almond croissant and cheese monkey bread. I'll start with the most positive. The bread was terrific. My whole family loved it. It was fresh. Crusty in the right way. There were household requests for repeat purchases, and I had to say, "Don't get ahead of yourselves, they're too far away for normal shopping." I didn't eat the almond croissant or the cheese monkey bread until the next day. So I can't fairly judge them. The croissant was still pretty tasty. The cookie was fine. My wife and I both had one the day we bought it. We've had a lot of top tier cookies this year. I can't put this cookie in that category. The texture wasn't as enjoyable. It was a harder cookie than I like. It had less chocolate. The salt content wasn't where I like it. So we loved the bread. And would buy it again. We'd skip the cookie. 4.5 Stars

First visit here, although I have passed it by numerous times on the Post Rd in Norwalk. I came to…read moretry the "Parisian" sandwich with Jambon de Paris (specific ham from Paris France). Small parking lot shared with multiple other businesses, but was able to find a spot. I was greeted seconds after entering, asking what I wanted, but as this was my first time here I wanted time to look around. Other than a party of 4 who were seated inside, no other customers were around. I had no idea they made pizza, and I took a suggested sample to try. Outstanding. Still looking and deciding, I was again asked if I was ready. I did know I wanted a sourdough baguette. OK. Packed. I asked about the Parisian sandwich (all the sandwiches are pre made and disayed in the case), to be sure Jambon de Paris was used. The staff had NO clue what I was talking about, and rudely proclaimed "it's ham". Yes, I am aware its ham, but if it is not Jambon de Paris I want to know so I can chose something else. Luckily, the manager or owner overheard and confirmed it was Jambon de Paris. Staff began ringing my items when I indicated that I still wanted 2 more items. Sigh and eyeroll. There was no one else in line or waiting to order. All items were expensive and no receipt was provided which I did not realize till I got home. The sandwich was good, but needed more Jambon de Paris. The tarragon mustard gave a nice flavor, while the butter provided a smooth texture to compliment the crunchiness of the bread. The sourdough bread and the filled croissants were both delicious, but also quite pricey. Sandwiches are not made or order, there is no pricing on many of the items that I could see, this is a location with lots of traffic and not much parking. On top of all of that, feeling rushed and completely disrespected as a paying customer doesn't make me want to return or recommend. You only get one chance to make a good first impression.

I visit a friend in Norwalk frequently and we make it a point to stop in for breakfast every time I'm around. Whether we've sat at the bar or table, the service has been great. I've tried a few different menu items with no complaints. The food is always fresh and made to order. You can get in and out in less than 45 minutes, depending on how quick you can eat. But I like to take my time and enjoy every last bite.

The girl greeted us and was very friendly and took our order . Looked very clean inside , we came at like 630 am so it wasn't super busy ! I ordered the California breakfast wrap which was $9 it came with egg, avocado , bacon and pepper jack cheese. It wasn't bad but honestly kinda tiny , there was definitely a lot More room in the wrap than what was put in there . If I was in the area Probably wouldn't come back again, would probably try some where else.

"A birthday dinner that actually felt like one."…read more Sienna Ristorante gets the balance right in a way most places don't. The space immediately stands out with a clean, modern feel that still feels warm, not staged or overly polished. It sets the tone before the food even hits the table. The meal itself followed through. The complimentary bread with oil was simple but done right, soft with a good crust and a clean, flavorful dip. We shared the wild mushroom arancini, and that was the first real standout. Crispy on the outside, rich on the inside, and the sauce was the kind you keep going back to without thinking. It carried the dish. For mains, I went with the wild mushroom pizza, which came out with a well balanced crust and just enough weight from the toppings without feeling heavy. The mushrooms were the focus and they delivered. The honeynut squash ravioli leaned more delicate, slightly sweet, and felt more composed than expected in a good way. Drinks held their own too. The Old Fashioned was clean and steady, while the lychee martini added something lighter and more refreshing to the table. They close the meal with biscotti and limoncello, which already would have been enough, but we added the tiramisu and that was the right call. It rounded everything out without feeling excessive, just a clean finish to a well paced dinner. Service matched the tone of the restaurant, attentive without hovering, and the pacing of the meal felt natural from start to finish. This is the kind of place that feels intentional. Not just good food, but a full experience that actually holds together. Easy to come back to, especially for something worth celebrating.

Her enthusiasm is infectious. And the food is excellent too. Creative breakfast combos and some you don't typically see. We went pretty traditional yet my avocado toast had an option over hashbrowns instead of one of the 5 or so bread options. The scrambled eggs were a cheesy softness that showed care and skill. Super fresh avocado, just lovely. My daughter who is local was visiting with me for the first time as well. She planned to go back with another friend just a few days later.

I got a bacon egg and cheese on a roll with pepper jack cheese and a side of hash browns. It was ready quick. I also grabbed a drink and a carrot cake dessert. My sandwich tasted fresh, my hashbrowns were nice and hot. My carrot cake was soft and moist, I wasn't a fan of the sugar frosting, thought it be more cream cheese like. I wouldn't get that again.

The staff was super friendly, and I ordered a Bacon, Egg, and Cheese. It was made on a Brioche roll with a fried egg. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of the egg or the sandwich overall. It was okay, probably a three-star kind of thing. Next time I went back, I tried the Calise sandwich, which has chicken cutlet, broccoli rabe, roasted peppers, fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, and balsamic glaze. I asked for the broccoli rabe on the side because I know everyone makes it differently. I get that it can be bitter, but some places make it taste amazing without the bitterness, so I wanted it on the side. The sandwich was really good, so I'd give it four stars, especially since the breakfast one was just three in my book. Sometimes you gotta visit a place a couple of times to really get a feel for their food. I wasn't really a fan of the broccoli rabe--it was a bit too bitter for me. But the sandwich itself was tasty, with well-seasoned chicken and really fresh mozzarella. Not sure if they make the mozzarella in-house, but it's delicious. It tasted just like you'd expect from an authentic Italian deli. Very good. Third time I went, I tried the Mother Clucker, which has a chicken cutlet, Russian dressing, cheddar cheese, and bacon. I wanted to try it because I'd seen it being made during my last visit and it looked awesome. It took about ten minutes to get ready. When I opened it up, I realized it had melted cheddar, not sliced like I thought, but it was all good. The sandwich was tasty, but a bit over the top with the bacon and melted cheddar--almost too much. I think using sliced cheddar would bring everything together better. The melted cheese kinda takes away from it, in my opinion. The bacon was crispy even with the cheesy sauce on top, and the chicken was nicely seasoned. I definitely plan to come back and try the Chopped Italian Combo. The staff's always friendly and welcoming, and it's a solid spot if you're looking for breakfast, with plenty of breakfast platters and other menu items that might catch your eye.
