Bricco Trattoria never disappoints. The food is consistently delicious, made with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and beautifully presented. Every dish we ordered was full of flavor, from the pasta to the entrées, and the desserts were the perfect finish.
The atmosphere is warm and inviting — great for both a relaxed dinner and special occasions. Service was friendly, attentive, and professional without feeling rushed.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for excellent Italian food in the area. We’ll definitely be back!

My husband took me here for a nice valentines day dinner and boy how it didnt disappoint! I ended up getting the salmon with green beans and leeks and a side of carrot pure and mashed potatoes and you could taste the freshness! My husband went with the potato pizza and that was a hit as well . For the appetizer we went with artichokes paired with walnuts and a beet salad. Our waitress was also very kind and accommodating, esp when asked for her honest opinions on what she prefers better. 10/10 Would definitely recommend for a nice date night.

What a gem! Every time we come here, we are never disappointed. The drinks, food, and atmosphere are simply the best. We highly recommend this place for all ages!
For our meal, we shared the Grilled Portuguese Octopus, which was amazing. I enjoyed the Porcini Dusted Day Boat Scallops paired with a Dubai Martini, while my husband had the Pan Roasted Halibut with an Old Fashioned. Everything was absolutely delicious!
We celebrated my birthday dinner here and it was the perfect way to end the evening. If you’re looking for a special night out, this is the place to go! ❤️

Bricco is, without question, one of the very best restaurants in Connecticut. As a true foodie, Bricco is the benchmark against which I measure every other dining experience—and very few, if any, come close.
From ambiance and service to food quality and value, it is virtually unmatched. I’ve eaten at thousands of restaurants, and Bricco easily sits in the top one percent. The head chef, Billy Grant, is an absolute master of his craft. If cooking were basketball, he’d be a Scottie Pippen at worst—elite, consistent, and indispensable.
I have never experienced a restaurant that delivers excellence with this level of consistency. I genuinely feel fortunate to have Bricco in my town and to enjoy it three to four times a week. The bartenders craft some of the most exceptional cocktails you’ll find anywhere, and the kitchen is always accommodating with thoughtful off-menu requests.
Simply put, this is the best-run restaurant I’ve ever visited in Connecticut. I welcome anyone to tell me where the competition is—I’m still waiting.

I sat at the bar – not busy only 6 people Sunday @ 1:15. I practically had to ask to place my order. ask for a refill on wine. I ordered chicken picatta with fresh pasta, the chicken wasn’t sautéed enough red in the middle and the fresh pasta was an upgrade charge 6.00 not worth it. I am not sure what is the big talk about this restaurant, very disappointed. I stacked my dirty dishes to get attention still ignored…I will not be voting for the restaurant of the year.

Waitress was amazing, I always ask for recommendations when goibg to new places and she knew this place really by heart (also tried a lot of the items). The cocktail tipsy cucumber was amazing. The mocktail lavender lemonade was really good not overpowering of lavender. Got the calamari which was average compared to others I’ve had for seasoning (cripsy tho). The mozzerella tomato arancini was above average loved the filling. Three pigs pizza was amazingggg. Known for brick oven pizza it shined, love the thin crust and flavors. The star of the show was the fennel and black pepper encrusted tuna on potato cakes. Tuna was perfect paired with its accompaniments, glad to go with the waitress recommendation. Their menu is so extensive that there is so many options to try and I would def go back! Definately recommend making an rsvp, went on a Friday and got lucky no wait for 2 people.

The restaurant itself is nice and the pizza was good, which is why this is disappointing. However, the experience with the blonde host was poor. She couldn’t initially find my reservation and came across as condescending, until a man who appeared to be part of the kitchen staff stepped in to help her locate it.
After that, she seated us in a completely empty, separate area while the main dining room had plenty of available tables, which felt unnecessary and unwelcoming.
Good food, but staff—especially the host—would benefit from better training in professionalism and hospitality, as that is a key part of the overall dining experience.

I made a reservation and when we got there our table was ready. They have an extensive menu, something to please everyone! Our waitress did a great job waiting on 6 of us! They also let us bring in our own birthday cake and only charged us to cut it.
It was a great birthday dinner!

Great business dinner with a former co-worker. Loved the cavatappi with the chicken parm, instead of the basic spaghetti. Portion size was large, and the food was excellent. A new mandatory stop when I’m working in Hartford.
