This place is awesome! Food is fantastic. Our order was perfectly cooked and not overwhelmed by pasta. Most Italian restaurants choke you with pasta and short you on the rest. Not Gold. Here you get delicious food with just the right amount of pasta. We will be back. read more

Sat at the bar on a Friday evening. Great bartenders and service and super cozy spot! $1 oysters were a plus, started a dinner and everything was lovely. Will definitely return next time to Burlington. read more

Went. but they would only seat me at the counter, so I went to the old OASiS ... whatever it's called now... had a delicious shrimp and grits. 5 star for the Oasis 0 for gold read more

LOVED our experience at Gold. The menu was perfection - we literally wanted one of everything, but being only 2 people, we enlisted our server to help us make the difficult decision on what not to order. We started with mocktails - (THANK YOU for having several options!) and antipasti - perfection. We then shared the Brussels sprouts, eggplant and farfalle, and the strawberry and beet salad. The portions were larger than expected - no complaints! The Brussels and farfalle were out of this world. The salad was good - great even - but pales in comparison to the other two dishes. For dessert, we went with the zeppole and panna cotta - no notes. Would eat it all again tomorrow. And all that for $100! read more

Atmosphere is great, it's well lit inside and not too loud so you can easily hear those you're dining with. All of the food we ordered was delicious. We got the burrata salad which could've been a little bigger and had more balsamic, but overall it was fresh, well flavored, and not too heavy before getting our entrees. We got the scallops over risotto pancakes with caramelized butternut squash. The scallops were perfectly cooked, everything well flavored. Despite LOVI NY scallops, my favorite part of dish were risotto pancakes. Also got the homemade ravioli (spinach and ricotta) which were delicious. For cocktails got the aperol, bourbon, aquafaba and bitters drink (cocktails only $13!!) and it was delicious and like a not too sweet dessert in a cup. All staff were pleasant and helpful. Overall great first experience here. Will come back again and will recommend to others! PARKING Only "negative" thing I can say was that it was a little tricky to find parking because there's no reserved parking area for customers so you need to find something on the street. And the closest parking lot seems like an option but when you turn it it says tenant parking only all others towed. read more

Absolutely loved this little gem of a place. The service was excellent and each dish was bursting with flavor and well balanced not too much fat or salt just the right amount for richness. The martini was crisp and wine was on point for the varied dishes. Oysters were cold briny and perfect mouthful. Arancini, gnocchi and ravioli were all perfect bites of summer freshness. Portion sizes are generous and overall a well-priced menu. read more

A terrific dinner: tasty oysters, delicious mushroom ravioli and sweet mussels. Helpful and attentive staff.

Every dish we had were heavenly and literally melted in our your mouths! Our waitress was very kind and attentive. The ambiance was small but cozy. Glad we took a chance trying out this newish dive. read more

I cannot wait to go back. This place is on the smaller side. Highly recommend a reservation. The tables nearest the door have no barrier from the gusts when people open the door, so during winter these are probably pretty cold seats. I don't know if they could put up a divider to protect that a little, but truly that is only downside. I believe the bar seats 6 so it's really on the small side, but the crafted drinks coming from it looked amazing. I had a delicious pasta paired with wine for their Tuesday special. We started with a share small plate, each had a pasta, and shared dessert. Each option was wonderful. Staff was friendly and helpful. Everyone around us seemed to be enjoying as well. I have recommended this place to friends and they all have reported back really enjoying as well. They have access to a shared parking lot so off street parking is available too!

Gold Restaurant - Pasta special with wine pairing. - Bars Near Me - Burlington, Vermont

Wow! That was great. We enjoyed our Christmas dinner there. Everything was delicious and the waitress was warm, casual and efficient. Brisket in particular was a standout among my family. My gnochetti was also a wonderful dish with truly perfect fried eggplant. Unfortunately no room for dessert. ​ read more

Dropped in for a late dinner on a Thursday evening, visiting from NYC. Nice space, interesting wine and beer selection. I had the grilled beet salad. The beet was nicely done, and the baby rocket was super fresh. Unfortunately the dressing was under seasoned. My wife had the fried eggplant salad, the breaded eggplant was delicious, and this salad was tastefully dressed. We shared the corn ravioli large plate. The ravioli were delicious, but there were only 5 of them, and again the dish was somewhat under seasoned. read more

This restaurant is a gem in Burlington's Old North End neighborhood. I really, really appreciate the quality and diverse menu -- and at an unusually decent price point. And oysters, too! No wonder you need reservations. Sure hope they never change. read more

Delicious food kind servers and accommodating . Cute ambiance. We had the salmon special was fresh and loved the apple sweet potato chutney.

We've been looking forward to trying this new spot, especially because of their daily dollar oyster special! The good news is we'll definitely return. The bad news is it won't be for oysters. The relish they were served with was completely bland. The worst of it was the oysters were full of sand. No thank you! Our dishes saved the day though. We enjoyed the crispy gnocchi, perfectly crispy fries with delicious garlic aioli, and tasty cocktails. We look forward to trying other items on the menu and enjoy the cute vibes. read more

Arrived in the Burlington area to enjoy Autumn leaf changes & biking. Stumbled on to Gold Restaurant in Burlington and definitely struck pay dirt!!! Food is beyond wonderful. Great selection of options, wonderful flavors and nice presentation. The Chef really knows how to combine flavors and textures offering scrumptious appetizers and small plate choices. The portions are good size as alone or to share. We sat at the bar and enjoyed conversing with staff. Intimate small 30 seat restaurant offers relaxing ambience. Check out weekday specials. A GOLD-mine in Burlington, VT. We will be back before our vacation comes to an end. read more

Place is new so reserving opinion until I try again. Ambitious menu, execution is not quite up to it. Unobtrusive decor, did not leave impression. Decent service. I had a couple of small dishes which could have used a boost in flavor. read more

Amazing cocktails, the shared plates were soooooo good. The pork belly melted in our mouths, the burrata was fresh, the focaccia bread was delicious. For the mains we had the steak and the risotto. They were really good, the steak and potatoes were slightly over salted, and the chicken to rice ratio was more chicken than rice, it would've been a bit nicer if it was a little more balanced, but the flavors were freaking amazing. read more

Amazing food, ambiance , and exceptional service!! Had the pork tenderloin medallions, fingerling potatoes with apple chutney. The focaccia bread was perfect starter. Highly recommend this place. read more

Amazing food. Came because it was open late and was really surprised by the unique dished. So tasty!

From the moment we walked in it felt like going to a friend's for dinner. We were greeted and quickly seated at our table. Our waitress Frankie was great. Good cocktails were had while we viewed the menu. The menu changes to keep things fresh and exciting. Having a difficult time choosing, we agreed to share a few items. The pear salad with grapes, tasty pear slices, smooth dressing all topped with an excellent topping of chèvre had us excited for more. We then split the Hanger Steak and Risotto entrees. The Braised Hanger steak melted in your mouth topped with an excellent sauce. The accompanying roasted potatoes complemented the mouth pleasing steak. I knew I would also love the Risotto with Burrata. Perfectly cooked risotto takes skill. It's all there! Ok, we had to finish the meal with an order of Zeppole. So good!!! You have to go here. read more

At the intersection of inventive and classic, you'll find the Gold Restaurant. Only open for dinner, this hidden gem serves delicious variations on Italian cuisine. Atmo is subdued and intimate, this is a great place to share place on a date. The drinks are clever and well prepared.. Service was attentive and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will be returning . read more

"Italian" food with a unique twist. We had Arncini balls, beet salad and sweet corn ravioli. Each dish had a blend of various flavors. Cannot recommend it enough. read more

Literally the best meal I've had in Vermont. Everything we had was incredible. The arancini was crispy and cheesy, the duck confit with crispy polenta was everything you would want a duck dish to be. The carne with Italian salsa verde and fried gnocchi were super flavorful, and the final ricotta doughnut dessert was a perfect way to end the experience. I cannot recommend this place enough. read more

Really good food and amazing wait staff. Made it easy to request a modification for a vegetarian diet. Will definitely be going again!
