ONLINE ORDERING AVAILABLE - ilpalioct.comIl Palio was named after the race held each summer in Siena, Italy. Created with a passion, the restaurant has been exquisitely designed and beautifully finished with materials from all over the world. No stone was left unturned and time was not a factor in finding exactly what was required to make the "vision" a reality. The atmosphere created is one of quiet comfort in surroundings reminiscent of an Italian villa. The friendly and courteous staff, the outstanding food, and the efficient service all contribute to the ambiance felt by those who visit the restaurant. Il Palio's fine Tuscan cuisine is a pleasing combination of the highest-quality ingredients and the caring preparation by chefs who take pride in the dishes they present. Like the race in Siena, Il Palio is creating lasting impressions.

    Great first time dinner at il Palio and it was perfect! Beautiful restaurant, professional staff and delicious food! We had a salad, calamari and 2 pasta dishes. We were too stuffed to even look at the dessert menu! The bread was incredible too. Once I saw who the chef was I knew exactly why it was so good! I knew her restaurant and reputation in New Canaan! I’ll be back to il Palio for sure… can’t wait!!!

    The food and service were outstanding! You can get lost in all of the wonderful offerings in their store. Such a great idea to eat in such a lovely ambiance. Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. We opted to eat half our servings in order to try some of their desserts! We were not disappointed! And we got our leftovers packed away to eat later. This was a beautiful experience from start to finish... We will be back soon!

    Got sat very shortly after we arrived. Victoria was our server and she has the best service. My girlfriend and I shared an appetizer, steak, and a dessert. They had a saxophone player who played everything from classic jazz to modern r&b.

    The server we had was absolutely amazing. I do not know how name but I recall he was bald. He made the entire experience for my brother and I amazing. Thank you so much! Everything was super clean including bathrooms. Loved my lasagna and meatballs. The tres leches cake good. Thank you! Overall great experience. Parking we found in a paid garage not too far from the restaurant but there is also paid parking across the street I believe.
