Excellent all Around experience One Of the best in CT will be back

Our party of 8 had the pleasure of dining at Avucchella before a show, and we couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the owner, Pasquale, which set the tone for the evening. Every aspect of our visit was exceptional, from the attentive service to the delicious food. The staff made us feel right at home, and the meal was nothing short of outstanding. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience!

Family Italian restaurant . Excellent paperadelle with mushrooms!

Always a wonderful variety of food and great service!

Our table was waiting for us at our appointed reservation time. We were cordially greeted by the hostess ansd our waitress. In general the service was excellent although there were a few things we requested that we had to remind our waitress about. A person who appeared to be the manager came to our table to ask several times if everything was OK and we appreciated that. Our waitress spilled grease on the shirt and coat of one of our group member and although she apologized there was no offer to pay for cleaning. She also almost poked him in the head with a bone, but fortunately I saw it about to happen and backed him off. In general the food and drinks were good (not great). We shared the fried polenta and fried calamari appetizers and they were both good. My husband and I had the Berkshire Pork Chop and it was excellent and served over a sweet potato hash with brussel sprouts. Two members of our group ordered the French Onion Soup and it was way too salty for anyone to eat. We ordered three desserts to share -- the Key Lime Pie which was good, the Carrot Cake Tower which was not as good as I had hoped (I am a Carrot Cake afficianado) and the Mudslide Pie which was the best of the three. All in all we had a great time, the atmosphere was nice, we were in a smaller room so once the large group left it quieted down a bit and the food was good, not excellent. Wouldn't run back for dinner but would probably go for lunch or a burger. It was a little pricey for what we got. $650 for a party of 6 with 2 appetizers, 3 desserts, drinks and a corkage fee for brining our own bottle of wine. Wish I could say it was great for that price!
