“ If you’re a lover of old school Italian restaurants such as Cafe Silvium in Stamford, then you will love this place! I’ve ordered lunch takeout from here numerous times and the quality of the food is just as delicious if you were dining in. We ate here tonight for dinner and once again, it did not disappoint. The food is delicious, portions are very generous, and the staff is very kind, especially the owner, Luka. This is a smaller size restaurant but perfect for a lowkey dinner or romantic date night. If you drive by too fast you will honestly miss it, lol. Highly highly highly recommend. We got the Beet Salad, Penne Vodka and Chicken Marsala tonight and they were even ended the evening with a shot of limoncello too. If you haven’t tried out this place yet then you’re missing out! It truly is a hidden Italian gem in Norwalk. ”
