Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Bloomfield

The food was fantastic! The halibut was absolutely perfect and the tagliatelle was spectacular. We really enjoyed sitting at the chef's counter and watching the fire. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. Overall a great experience! Can't wait to visit again. Definitely order the bread!

Even though the restaurant was on fire from the holiday fest, Shane was super friendly as always…the entire staff was gracious and welcoming, including Will who had a huge party and Nate who was helping in the kitchen, yet both made a point to say hello. The food was fantastic as well!

Lovely environment, excellent food, superb service. The only thing I would suggest is they could add just a couple additional vegetarian options. Currently there is only one entre option, the smoked mozzarella ravioli which was excellent but at least one other option would have been nice, especially since I would very much like to return but only having one entre option is a downside. Otherwise, wonderful place, highly recommended.

Ciao Amici has stepped up their game regarding service. It was exceptional this visit. The water waiter immediately filled our glasses as we sat down. The waitress was very friendly, fast, informative, and proficient. The food was quite tasty. The shrimp luca is an excellent choice along with the lamb shank. A very good dining experience. One small notation, the waitress should wait until the customer is done with their table conversation before making inquiries regarding placement of an order, rather than interrupting. It's a little rude.

Love this restaurant! Great menu, friendly and capable servers, managers that care, delicious meals. Most consistent restaurant in downtown Brighton. Highly recommend.
