“Randomly stumbled upon Gaetanos in Westport yesterday when looking for a place to get sandwiches before my son’s baseball game. Having grown up in Belmont Little Italy for the first 22 years of my life I was skeptical about the “Arthur Ave style..” claim on the sign. Well I can tell you they delivered and then some! Was warmly greeted, handled samples of delicious cheeses and more. They were too skeptical when I said I grew up on Arthur Ave but once we started chatting they knew I wasn’t BSing. Saw familiar faces and reminisced about life on Arthur Ave. The owners are warm and kind - the real deal keeping it true to the Arthur Ave spirit. Dare I say they might even do it better!! I can’t say enough about the excellent food and service. If I ever find myself in Westport again I will certainly make a visit! Aside from my son’s team’s win, this nostalgic experience truly made my day and made me feel like I was back home in the Bronx when life was more simple. And yes, everything we ordered and sampled was delicious! No skin on the eggplant and bread from Addeo - doesn’t get any better!”

“Bottom line.. favorite place to go..”

“Amazing local business , support your neighborhood..”

“I eat a lot of authentic Mexican food. This place is definitely very good. Haven’t had anything from here I didn’t enjoy. I order at least 3 times a week since I live up the road. My favorite being the Enchilada Cemita. I recommend El Gallo Dorado to everyone.”

“This is a very fun place with a great vibe. The menu is small but the food is outstanding. The bartenders are well-trained and the drinks show it.”

“The Crab Rangoon is insane here. I love getting this as a app. Highly recommend little chopstick they are very friendly every time I go in and their food is always on point!”

“DJ’s Pizza never disappoints! It is always a fabulous experience, whether deliver or pick up. Their pizzas, entrees and catering are delicious and I highly recommend you giving them a call. Thank you to the DJ’s Pizza Team!!”

“I tried everything here, everything is cooked to perfection.
Clam Chowder is the best here.

Every item is made In house (Tatar, Coleslaw, Cocktail Sauce, Breading the seafood) everything is made per order.”

“You owe yourself a December treat! Mine will be this week on Tuesday night. I’m ordering two petite dinners of the short ribs. They are to die for…uncork the wine and I’ll forget the stress of December!”

“omg best grandma pizza ever”

“We've lived here for 2 yrs and have been pleased with the food we've ordered. However, we ordered dinner last Fri, and they were very busy. I was worried that perhaps the food would be rushed and not quality. We were blown away with the taste and quality! We ordered again for a family get together last night, which was a Wednesday. Again, the food was just amazing! Our daughter who lives closer to her usual Chinese takeout is going to switch to Chinatown.”

“We had the most wonderful experience at Caloroso Eatery & Bar. Unbeknownst to me, my family planned a surprise birthday party and had it at Caloroso’s in early December. Because the weather was still good, the party took place in the Sky Terrace…the space was very inviting and large enough to accommodate the 33 of us! Ashley and others of the Caloroso team made sure that no one went thirsty or hungry! The buffet of chicken parm, chicken marsala, pasta, salad, and more was totally delicious and plentiful! The large screen in the room made it possible for all to see the birthday trivia game through which I relived lots of happy memories and milestones! I had no idea what was waiting for me when I walked up the stairs and went through the doors into the Sky Terrace…and I’ll never forget the SURPRISE experience! Thank you, family, and thank you Caloroso team for helping to make the day a cherished lifelong memory!!”

“Living in Shelton for many years but first time here-very good Chinese food for a reasonable price-we had spring rolls wonton soup shrimp with lobster sauce and the triple seafood-all good. We did takeout. Will return.”

“My heritage is Italian and for the majority of my life I lived in a Italian community in NY. When I moved ti Shelton Connecticut, I found myself in search of a good Italian Restaurant! My search ended when I found Matto’s Wine bar in Shelton. My waitress immediately tended to our every need. Her name was Chelsea and she took the time to explain to us how the items we were interested in were prepared. She gave us great recommendations and never rushed us to order. I love margaritas so my drink order was easy. My wife on the other hand likes sweet and unusual drinks. Chelsea recommended a drink with Italian ice in it and my wife was in Heaven! I can assure you that the food is delicious and definitely authentic Italian. The meatballs were phenomenal as was my veal cutlet and my wife’s pasta. Though they were extremely busy the manager, Mr. Ricky Rosario was out on the floor helping serve customers. If I even looked his wsy he came to our table to see if we needed anything. I honestly felt like royalty as they couldn’t do enough for us. I would definitely recommend this establishment as the good and service were outstanding. Ask for Chelsea as your waitress though they are all equally good.”
