What we didn't like: Drinks were ok, my manhattan had too much vermouth. Measuring your pour for drinks is a bad look for a place like this. We go to plenty of other area restaurants that do not do that. For this 1st time limited experience I give 3-1/2 stars and feel they have lots of potential. We'll be back to check out their main menu which looks very good.

Delicious Cosmo here (not on the menu but it's my go to order). We had calamari and the truffle risotto as apps. Both were done beautifully. The risotto was the favorite, super addictive, we couldn't stop eating it. I ordered the lasagna for my entree and the portion was larger than I expected and it was so incredibly flavorful. I highly recommend that dish. My friend ordered the cedar plank salmon and although it was cooked well, everything on the plate was under seasoned. He had me tast the cauliflower mash and it was so bland. After asking for salt and pepper it was much better but overall a disappointment considering how out of this world the other food was.

We sat outside and enjoyed the warm weather as well as a wedding that was taking place. The venue does a great job of keeping wedding events separate from diners so although we were able to see some of the wedding party and guests the reception was in another room and the noise did not spill over to diners, My friend had a cocktail and I enjoyed a wine flight. We shared a summer peach and burrata salad and Parker House rolls. Both were delicious. My friend had salmon and I had the summer swordfish over risotto. Both were perfectly prepared. My swordfish was melt in your mouth. Our server, Aydan was super friendly and just a delight. Everyone at the restaurant was helpful and gracious. I would highly recommend giving the Bistro a try if you are in the area. I don't think you will be disappointed!

The waitress was knowledgeable on the wines and their pairings. We got the red wine braised shortrib poutine and and it was AMAZING I've tried a lot of poutine and this was one of the best. The meat was so incredibly flavorful and soft, the cheese had the perfect cheese pull, the gravy was scrumptious and the fries were thin and perfectly salty like a better version of a McDonald's fry. For dinner we split the steak frites and duck breast. The steak was well seasoned and was a nice size, the broccolini was surprisingly really great, and the fries were just as good as they were in the poutine. The duck breast was a pass for me, and I love duck. It was cooked medium as a default and that is not my preference. It was quite chewy and I didn't think it tasted like very much at all. The mashed potatoes were very good, I think they have a real knack for all things potato here and the farro was good and very flavorful for being a side portion. I would definitely come here again but probably stick to the red meats.

Every dish was absolutely delicious, making it hard to pick a favorite, but the Duck Potstickers were especially outstanding- an easy 10/10! The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, with a true farm-to-table feel, and each dish was perfectly seasoned and packed with flavor. For drinks, my friend enjoyed a Zinfandel while I ordered the Coppertone rum cocktail, which was refreshing and perfect for a warm evening. Our host and waitress were extremely attentive, knowledgeable about both the food and beverage menus, and offered excellent recommendations.We sat outdoors on the rooftop deck under an umbrella, which provided a lovely atmosphere. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of downtown Milford, with plenty of free off-street parking available. The only downside was the motorcycle traffic from a nearby biker bar. Every time a group rode by, the engines were quite loud and interrupted the otherwise relaxing ambiance. Even so, the food, drinks, service, and atmosphere easily made this a place I'd happily return to.

The food and service were good--but the end of the night completely ruined the experience. After we paid and were clearly wrapping up, a hostess came over and told us we had been there for two hours and needed to give up the table, offering to move us to the bar. That's not hospitality. We were already about to leave, and instead of a basic courtesy to finish our conversation, we were made to feel rushed out. In over 25 years of dining in the U.S., I've never been pushed out of a restaurant like that. It completely overshadowed what should have been an enjoyable evening.

The calamari was great, crispy and flavorful, definitely a highlight, although I feel like the…read morerecipe may have changed a bit, but I could be wrong. Don't get me wrong, our waitress was polite, but every time we mentioned something, there just wasn't any follow-through. I had asked for extra bread and a new napkin and they never arrived. When my boyfriend asked for more water, she responded along the lines of she was about to do it, which came off like it was an inconvenience. I also wasn't offered fresh pepper and had to ask for Parmesan cheese, which made things feel a little off. I ordered the Linguine ai Frutti di Mare with clams, calamari, mussels, scallops, shrimp, and a lobster tail. The seafood itself was cooked pretty well, but the pasta was heavily overcooked, which was such a bummer because we come here at least twice a year and usually look forward to it. Afterward, I asked if the pasta was homemade and was told you have to specifically request that. I feel like that's something that should be mentioned upfront when ordering. Also, I forgot to mention they add radishes to the salad and no one asked about allergies. When I got mine, there was a big radish in it and I just had to hope I removed them all, which wasn't a great feeling. I don't know what changed, but overall this visit just felt a little disappointing compared to what we're used to.

My wife and I went in hoping for a little Boston North End vibe without leaving Manchester's North…read moreEnd (live close by) on Valentine's Day Eve with reservations (yes, Villaggio, you have my phone number). The food: Mostly hit as we hoped! Chicken parm was great, marinara was excellent! The surprise was the bolognese on my partner's spaghetti side, which was a bit bland, expected the opposite - both were still great to be clear. Chicken Caesar salad was on point as much as a salad can be. ;) The service: This is the real issue. Only two of us, and about 5 seconds after giving my drink order (while my partner was still ordering her drink) and getting a initial look of disapproval when ordering water on the waitress's first pass (wanted to look at the drink menu), I asked to swap the liquor in my Olde Fashion to something she mentioned under her breath when I first ordered it (took me a minute to process it). The waitress said it was "too late" with her handheld because it's instantly sent to the bar. If that's true, that's a pretty bad system, efficiency be damned. We were within earshot of many other tables - our waitress didn't explain dishes or specials like we saw/heard other servers doing (left us feeling regretful with our food choices), and she tried to take my card before I even opened the bill... this is after telling us we had to wait 15 minutes for a second round of bread (haha, which showed up 35 minutes later - petty, but annoying). Things were bad enough with the waitress that we actually asked to box up our mains shortly after receiving them (ate less than 10% of either). This was our second visit (first was takeout, which was great) and our first time dining in. Being in Customer Service and having a history in the restaurant industry, on the way out (after paying and tipping, aka not looking for a discount), I hesitated walking out the door and turned to ask for a manager. The front-of-house host said he'd speak as the manager and responded to everything with a sarcastic "that's unfortunate" / "that's our standards" / "that's too bad" / and sent us on our way. Not big complainers, hate doing it, but this one stuck with us, especially with the high praise and relatively premium prices this restaurant seemingly gets online -- bad taste service-wise, great taste food-wise. Looking around, most of the customers are of an older demographic, and again, most of the waitstaff seemed awesome (especially compared to ours). Would absolutely get the food again. However, as someone that lives on the North End of Elm St, I would never dine in again if this is what they consider acceptable service... what more can we do besides speak up about our concerns, after settling the tab... being told that's "normal" is gross in my opinion. Working in restaurants in the past, if that's their standard, then I distrust their entire approach to service.
