Dario's - Fitchburg

Appetizers were really good. Food was amazing. Perfectly cook shrimp! Drinks were good, employees were friendly and very attentive. Atmosphere was great. Recommended for good Italian food!

Went for dinner last night. First, the good: Fast, pleasant and entirely competent service! Aslo a beautiful and airy feeling uncrowded dining room. The restaurant was just as clean as could be. I loved the great cloth napkins lightly starched and so smooth to the touch with the spotless and lovely table linens. Our waitress was attentive and charming. We had the veal piccata with risotto and quartered artichoke hearts and capers. It was actually perfect, so generous a serving and very tender meat with the lightest of coatings in the perfect picatta sauce, delicious. Small complaint that is probably only my own personal quirk but I did not love the extra slices of parm on top of the risotto it felt like a gilded lily. Extra cheese suggests the cook is not confident in the flavor and the quality, in my entirely subjective opinion. The Chef should know his/her/their veal piccata is a stand out. The bad: The veal marsala and pasta and mushrooms was flat and the veal was both heavily breaded and unpleasantly chewy. It was surprising that both these veal dishes came from the same kitchen. I wondered if one was prepared by the real chef and the other by his third cousin on his mother 's side brought in at the last minute to see if s/he could cook? We were not that hungry so we took the veal marsala home for the dog. Wine and service was very good but the bread was shockingly awful a kind of an odd and cheap/dry/day old tasteless sliced bun affair. The tap water smells funny and the music was entirely too loud. We were one of 2 couples in the dining room and although I commented several times about the volume, there was no offer to lower the sound which seemed odd to me. I have a hard time imagining going back there on purpose but maybe I 'll forget about what bugged me and just remember the pretty room and that really nice veal piccata with risotto?

Lovely time all around! The bar was beautiful and the service was excellent. The bartender was helpful, fast and a pleasure. We had only 1 appetizer, and it was delicious! highly recommend!

Great Experience, Great Food. And our server was Simply Awsome. Everything we tasted, from the appetizers to the main courses very absolutely Exceptional. I Would recommend this restaurant to anyone who Loves Italian food.

We did takeout. Ordered a chicken broccoli rigatoni Alfredo for $22. Dish was ok but the carbonara was $37 and not actually carbonara… there’s no carbonara sauce at all. See picture. Note that we ate from it so portion was a bit larger. Still very disappointed in food and cost.
