As always the food, service, and ambiance was excellent. This is the best restaurant within a 20 to 25 mile radius of Sandy Hook. Ps. You can actually have a conversation with the person across the table from you without screaming!

Our dinners were excellent. Our server was excellent. We requested a number of adjustments to our orders such as no quinoa in the berry salad and a side of aoli with the Caesar salad with crab cakes and all were addressed perfectly. The scrod dinner looked delicious. And to start, don’t miss the bread order with roasted garlic. Delicious.

This is becoming a favorite New Haven Restaurant. This time we went for Schnitzel Monday, one of their themed weeknights. You could order off the regular menu, but we wanted the veal schnitzel which was served with a tomato salad in a terrific dressing and a warm potato salad. The portion was huge, tender and perfectly cooked.

The dishes were outstanding, and the service was equally exceptional. Our waiter was attentive throughout the evening, and we especially appreciated that our special occasion was thoughtfully acknowledged. The restaurant's ambiance is unique, elegant, and tastefully decorated, creating a wonderful setting for the meal. The only downside was the noise level, which was much louder than expected and detracted from the overall experience. For that reason, I'm deducting one star.

We had a fantastic dinner at Consiglio’s in New Haven last night! From the warm, welcoming atmosphere to the delicious Italian food and attentive service, everything made for a wonderful evening. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in, enjoy a great meal, and truly appreciate the company you’re with. A real New Haven gem and an easy five stars. We’re already looking forward to going back! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
