We shared a second one since we didn't uber - unfortunately! The focaccia was so fluffy, a little salty, and perfect in a little olive oil. Yes, we accepted seconds. The caprese was good. The peaches were hit or miss but the tomatoes and burrata were very fresh. The grilled octopus was the biggest surprise to us as it was perfectly cooked. A nice char on the outside and so tender inside. You don't find that everywhere! And lastly the combo of flavors in the brussels with the perfect charred crunch made my husband not even miss the protein! The chocolate mousse cake we got to go was the perfect ending. Don't listen to your husband who says he'll only have one bite and just order two.

Our waitress was absolutely amazing. She was kind, attentive, and whenever something was forgotten, she immediately went to speak with the kitchen and tried to make it right. That being said, our table definitely seemed to fall into a bit of a communication dead zone. My chicken parm was forgotten, and while waiting for it the rest of my family's food got cold. They ended up sending their pasta back to be reheated, which also took a while. Our drinks were forgotten at one point as well, and our to go dessert sat waiting for a long time before anyone brought it over. The food itself was great and we still enjoyed celebrating together, but overall the experience would have been much smoother with better communication between the kitchen and staff. The perfume machine in the bathroom is a fun touch

Drinks stayed filled, and the waiter came by to make sure we didn't want any refills on any alcoholic beverages as they were being consumed. He recommended a few appetizers for the table. We got to try the chef special, garlic bread with ricotta, and calamari. All very good. As was the bread and oil that I think comes with every meal. After I heard the specials, I went with the short rib gnocchi, but the salmon with spaghetti squash was a close second. I wasn't disappointed in my dish. It was a really good size and I ended up taking half of it back with me, something tells me it's gonna be even better the next day as most Italian food is. My one regret is that I didn't order the lemon cheesecake to go. All of the desserts sounded amazing, especially the hazelnut tart, however, the lemon cheesecake is super cute and I heard from other people that have been to this restaurant before that it is delicious. Maybe next time!

I've dined in the US, Europe, Far East and Middle East and have never enjoyed a restaurant more. Seriously! We are lucky to have Villa Mulino in our area.

I started with a cocktail topped with a mini charcuterie board, which was a fun touch. We ordered the tuna tartare to start. The portion was generous and the tuna tasted very fresh, especially with the mashed avocado on top. For my entree, I had the frutti di mare. The flavors were great, but I wish the sauce were a bit thicker since it settled at the bottom and left the noodles a little bare. Service was excellent and we never felt rushed. My fiancé ordered the espresso martini with cold foam to finish. I am not usually a fan of espresso martinis, but this one was impressive. The cold foam and chocolate-covered espresso beans stood out. Looking forward to coming back in the summer to try the patio.

That said, it was clearly busy, so I would definitely recommend making a reservation on peak nights--we got lucky. The service was excellent from start to finish.

The wine selection is also strong, with plenty of good options to pair with the meal. Overall, a great Italian spot with great food, service, and atmosphere. I would happily go back.

We may get back together in the future because one transgression can possibly be forgiven. I ordered "take-out" on November 30, 2025. I was hungry and excited to see my favorite pasta, Cacio E Pepe, on the menu. When I received the dish in the picture, I thought it was undoubtedly an error because the dish is traditionally served with a white "sauce". I called and was directed to the manager. She explained that sometimes they change it up and make it red. On what planet?!?! Was I being manipulated into accepting this? I told her it was misleading, and she said the description below the dish's name is on the menu. As illustrated in one of the photos, there is no description on the menu available online. I expressed my disappointment, but she did not offer to resolve the issue, e.g., by offering me another dish or a refund; twenty-seven dollars ($27.00) in the garbage. Love hurts.

Well, everything was fantastic especially the pastas. They really know what they're doing with their daily fresh (insanely light) pasta and sauce. We were literally scraping the bowl with our spoons to get the lasts bites of both the ravioli and tagliatelle - absolutely DELICIOUS. Outside of pastas everything else was flavorful and tasty; especially that braised short rib! Truly an unforgettable and incredibly crave-able meal + the service and drinks on top of it all made it even better. I've wanted to go for years since it's constantly all over popular foodie accounts and even then nothing prepared me for how delicious this meal was. I can honestly say in the 6 years that I've lived in CT some of these dishes were the best I've EVER had in the state and 1000% the best texture pasta I've experienced overall. Whether this be a random dinner decision or a place to celebrate something special book a reservation ASAP! You will not regret it!!

We had a stuffed agnolotti pasta. It was so good. The bolognese was solid as well. The roasted carrots were awesome with the green crema. Definitely skip the scallops it was like swallowing a spoonful of salt. Lastly the grilled chicken with pasta underneath was moist but not memorable. the dessert was the star!!!! the chocolate Nutella cake with ice cream YUM. Since the menu is rotating, i would definitely return to try some new things.
