“Wilaiwans is one of the best restaurants I’ve ever eaten at! The food is consistently amazing - rich, complex flavors, fresh healthy ingredients, somehow combining a heartiness with a lightness in one close to perfect culinary package. It’s worth a trip to Montpelier for lunch on a weekday to try a dish here. It is pretty spicy but never so much (for my taste) that the spice overwhelms the flavors. Just the right amount of spice in my book but for those who shy away from spicy food, this is probably not the place for you.”

“Penzo is a small pizza restaurant in the Inn at Montpelier. The dining area is in the front end of the Inn and has a nice cozy feel. We have been three times since moving to the area a month ago. Obviously we love it since we have been so many times already!We have had salads, pizzas, and the mushrooms appetizer. All have been great. Can't wait to try the spaghetti and meatballs!”

“Really tasty baked goods and very kind folks. It’s worth the 10-15 minute walk from the denser parts of downtown.Edit: I went back again the next day and tried more pastries. All delicious!!”
“Simply the best! Food, atmosphere, staff, bar, and prices. Worth the 1 hour drive to get there.”

“We all agreed tonight that that we had a truly “world class” dining experience in central Vermont. The food was flavorful, exquisite and creatively prepared. The service the entire evening was impeccable. We loved our dining experience and we’ll be back!”

“My wife and I are never disappointed when we choose to go out of our way to eat here. The service, food quality, environment and value are never in doubt.”
“After working here- I wouldn't recommend. First of all, employees don't recieve the credit card tips after being promised tips. Second of all, nothing is made in house except for the guacamole and pico. Not authentic mexican food of any sort. Canned enchilada sauce. Stuffed Polblano peppers come in a plastic bag. The owners have their own sauce they ask for on enchiladas. It tastes much better than what they serve the public. The owners Lu and David are dirty and steal tips from their employees who are Lu's own "people". Not to mention the place is far from up to health code!”
“Delicious food, made with fresh ingredients. The fact my cousin is the owner doesn't change my review.”

“Intriguing art abounds in every corner of this bar and the plethora of disco balls encourages one to get their groove on. It’s a terrific venue for bands looking to reach an appreciative crowd of live music lovers. Service was friendly and excellent, willing to mix you a grandpa’s whisky sour with Squirt. Not your typical bar fare here with coq au vin over noodles and gumbo that was a standout.”

“Very very few vegetarian options. If you ask, you'll be told the tofu soups are vegetarian, but if you ask specifically about the broths, they are chicken or beef. "If you don't eat meat, these are okay, but if you're vegan, only this one." One of the coconut curry dishes is "real vegan", so hopefully you like that one thing. I'm not a fan of hot, salty coconut milk or uncooked tofu, unfortunately. In my experience, 2/3 Pho places have vegetarian broths and good veggie options, some don't. This one doesn't.Also, their boba options are basically tea or mango juice with tapioca balls added in. Not terrible, but not what we were hoping for/expecting.I'm told the beef pho was pretty good, and Sam seems like a kind man. Overall, the place seems popular, just not for me.Vegetarian options: One dish is "true vegan", the other "meatless" dishes are made with chicken or beef broth with tofu added. Nothing is labeled as vegetarian or not, you have to ask, and the answers are not very helpful or accurate.”

“My favorite restaurant in the state. I've been coming here for as long as they've been open. My Pops and I agree that if we had the chance, we'd eat there everyday for the rest of our lives. Straight up comfort food. The service is IMPECCABLE everytime, no matter how busy they are. This family KNOWS WHATS UP, GO EAT THEIR FOOD!”
“Great roadside soft serve ice cream. The staff were very fast and the ice cream is good, the perfect summer day treat. The maple ice cream flavor was underwhelming but the mango was good. Not really anywhere to sit but there’s a nice shady area overlooking the river.”
“Always a great hometown family feel type experience. The delicious smell of baked goods fills the street. I love the flavor of their breads, my personal favorite is The Manghi’s!Kid-friendliness: Kids can pop in and purchaseIndividual rolls after school.”

“Decided to stroll down the block and look for breakfast. Have done it many times and didn't find any. Saw the sign they were recently open. Was great. They even make the bread they serve in house. It's a must try when in Montpelier ”

“This is a busy place and pastries sold out quickly. I would own a shop like this but not a place to hang for a while. The window seats are nice though to people watch.The price is reasonable actually for the town and locals running into local is very common. I tried my croissant and it’s not very crispy as I wanted. I would want it freakier. Coffee is very good though. If you want an afternoon pick me up, definitely go for one.Ambiance isn’t my vibe but for a quick stop yes. It’s a good place for parents with their ikea like decorating. Chairs and table are basic.Service is very friendly.”

“Today I fl celebrated my 50th birthday at my favorite restaurant in Vermont. Been lucky to have been eating fabulous meals at Sarducci’s since first visiting our family on a first trip to Montpelier. In 1998 we moved to Montpelier and made Sarduccis a weekly date. Our family grew, we continued our tradition and watched the kids go from car seats in the booths, to high chairs, to booster seats and now teenagers and young adults. Every time we had company, Sarduccis was our go to. We moved to Essex, but still made time for our favorite spot. Just recently, my husband and I made a special trip for a “just us two” date- happy to find the flood damage was not enough to keep them closed for long. Sadly, my husband Bryan died on August 12, 2023- but the memory of our last date together and him enjoying his meal will last forever. Thank you for years worth of memorable meals and we look toward to many more.”
