Diorio Restaurant & Bar 231 Bank St, Waterbury Italian • $$$

“We were a party of 5 so we got to sample the menu pretty broadly. From appetizers through the entrees and to desserts everything was well prepared and tasty. Service was excellent; our waiter was knowledgeable, friendly and not intrusive. Wine list was not large but had good offerings at several price points. Physical environment of the restaurant itself was quite pleasant. An older building on the fringe of Waterbury's downtown. Sadly that downtown has seen better days. Within, the restaurant is extremely pleasant. High tin ceilings; dark wood; interesting chandeliers. A pleasant environment for dining. Overall, a very nice dining experience. All 5 of us agreed we would happily return.”

If you like spicy ask them to spice it up...I wouldn't rate it The stop of desi food, but I would regard it as an everyday quintessential. Where you can make a quick stop and get the known and familiar things.Make a tea stop with a side of chicken pakora and get perhaps even a Moong Dal Halwa if you have a sweet tooth. Though if they had I'd order a more traditional Khatai or jalebi.”

“First time here in at least 8 yrs. The food is still as amazing as it was 20 yrs ago. This is a must go to every time I'm in Waterbury since I grew up here. If you like the diner atmosphere and are looking for good quick food I highly recommend! I'd give extra stars if the ability existed. Right off Meriden road in the family dollar parking lot. 5 mins from the mall and Walmart respectively. Definitely a hidden gem

Wheelchair accessibility: One floor and all level. End tables can be removed for a chair.”

Baileys Café 92 Store Ave, Waterbury Bar • $

“I try to pop into Bailey’s at least once a week and lately I’ve been gravitating towards their Saturday prix fixe menu. Ed is a terrific chef and he has been creating some new,special dinners. I’d like to start by saying that the portions are huge, I’m not sure how they make any money on them. First course was sausage and potatoes with long hot peppers. Absolutely delicious and definitely a shareable plate. Second was a cup of homemade chicken tortellini soup. Main course was crab stuffed filet of sole with a lobster sauce, homemade mashed potatoes and green beans almondine. The dinner is finished with a generous slice of red velvet cake, which I declined because I was stuffed. Half of the appetizer came home with me, but I did finish the rest of it. if I wasn’t starving when I walked in, I probably could’ve easily gotten two complete meals out of this. They normally have three or four appetizers, three or four soup offerings and four main courses, so there’s absolutely something for everyone. How much would you expect to spend on a dinner of this caliber? How about 25 bucks? The atmosphere is comfortable, the patrons are genuine Waterbury folks, the staff is friendly and engaging. Alderman Jeff Hunter lays down some great R&B tracks as a happy hour DJ on Fridays and Sundays. I’ll complete this by saying that I am past retirement age and feel extremely comfortable with everybody here. The kitchen is open until 10 PM.”

Ruby Thai Kitchen 495 Union St, Waterbury Thai • $$

“If you want a really good bowl of ramen noodle soup, you will find it here in the Brass Mill Center food court.

I had the tonkotsu ramen which is a pork soup with slices of roast pork. The broth and pork were very good and tasted authentic, along with all the usual toppings you will find at a quality Japanese ramen restaurant. I also had the fried chicken wings and they were as tasty and crispy as in Thai restaurants.

They also have a buffet of the usual, ready to eat dishes you will find at the majority of asian restaurants in mall food courts, although the Ramen took about 10-15 minutes to prepare in the back kitchen.

*It's actually "Basil Thai Kitchen" but Google Maps doesn't believe me.”
