Restaurants near Hurlbutt Street School

Baldanza at the Schoolhouse is the best! It's head and shoulders above any other restaurant in lower Fairfield County. The food is perfectly cooked and presented every time. The attention to detail is meticulous. My water glass was refilled quickly. The staff is courteous, friendly, and efficient. Last night I had the veal parmesan with homemade pasta, it was outstanding. I always share the fritto misto with fried calamari and shrimp with friends. I had the homemade carrot cake for dessert. It was moist and dense with the right amount of cream cheese frosting and dollops of homemade whipped cream om the side. My only wish is that the dining room were quieter, it's difficult to have a conversation right across the table. My vote is 4.9 stars. I love the Schoolhouse!

Went with some old friends and sat in the room when you walk in to the right it was beautifully decorated and the noise level was perfect to catch up with them. Our waiter Diego was the best he didn’t rush us and the timing of everything was perfect. Looking forward to going back. Oh the food was awesome too!!

Amazing combinations and flavor profiles. I was skeptical about a few things we ordered but was exceptionally surprised. Will definitely be coming back.

Bianco Rosso is a real find. It doesn’t look great and the music was too loud, but the food and the service were FANTASTIC! We live in NYC where there is no shortage of wonderful Italian restaurants. Bianco Rosso is clearly far better than most and at a much better price. I was there with my daughter for her birthday. We had a charming young lady as our server. We decided to pick two appetizers and share them. We asked our server what she would recommend and beamed and said, “Oh, the Lamb Lollipops and the Salmon Tatar!”. We took her advice. Great suggestions. Based on the strength of her recommendations, we asked her what two entrees she would recommend. Penne with sweet sausage and chicken picatta. Both outstanding. On to dessert. Profiteroles and carrot cake she said. Now this was the real test. I don’t like carrot cake and never order it. But we were on a roll, so profiteroles and carrot cake it was. Both were amazingly good. Overall, a wonderful and memorable meal! I am very glad that we found Bianco Rosso and will definitely go back.

Creative menu, friendly service makes for a nice experience.
