The gentleman that greeted us was very friendly and welcoming. Due to COVID we weren't permitted inside which I find to be very challenging as I typically like to see what I'm purchasing. They had a whiteboard that listed all the fish and additional items for sale but no pricing which I found to be a bit awkward and would unfortunately make us not return until we would be able to go inside. I felt very caught off guard when I was told the total price and there was no itemized receipt provided. Overall quality of the fish was very fresh & delicious but shopping experience would make me think twice before returning.

I ordered to go which included a hot lobster roll , cold is also an option. Buffalo chicken tenders, and a side order of shrimp. They allow you to order the shrimp by the piece which is $2 a shrimp. The shrimp are a good size! While I was waiting I had a drink as well spicy margarita which was good. Overall I will be returning when I want some good fresh seafood. The food was delicious once I got home, lobster roll stuffed! The lobster is packed separately so the bread does not get soggy. Just a heads up the lobster roll is $40 but itis well worth it!

We just learned that West Shore Seafood is going to a year-round operation with the addition of an…read moreindoor dining area. That's good news; we wish them well. Our experiences this year have been pretty good, but not quite as good as we hoped. Their logistical arrangement over the summer has been different from the past. When you arrive now you order at a new covered bar (wine, beer, cocktails to a limited extent) area. You pay there, are given a number and find a seat where you will be served. Their dining tent is larger and better protected from the elements, and of course outside seating at tables is still available weather permitting. It's a great place for families where the kids can freely run around. But it's really all about the food, isn't it? And we've had some good and not-so good dishes at our visits this year. Their fish and chips remains a delicious treat: the fish crispy, the fries crunchy, we way we prefer. The tuna steaks, however, have been once overcooked and other times way undercooked and chewy. Our neighbors tell us their fried menu items are consistently better prepared. Guess we need to learn. Their menu offers lots of choices; we've enjoyed the fried shrimp previously but didn't try it lately. The lobster butter cheddar biscuits are very tasty. -- good crunch -- and we have always found their clam chowder to be thick, creamy and filled with clam pieces. A welcome treat! We are eager to dine inside shortly, and we'll update our report then. In the meantime, we still enjoy our visits here; e'd just prefer to have a little more consistency.

You have an open air tent seating option along with a field seating option that is family and dog friendly. Expect a longer wait time for food. Truly, their fried options are the best options on the menu and that shouldn't be the case. Their cocktails are not consistent, but when they're made well, they are great. The food is expensive for what you get, for instance, 1 small cod fillet for fish and chips. As I write, the more I realize perhaps it's a solid 3.5 stars. For an outdoor dining establishment in the summer, it hits the spot.

Meeting up with friends in Torrington on a Monday, Sasso's was closed, so we decided to try…read moreGiovanni's. It was a nice place inside, but food and service were very mediocre. There were four of us and the bartender said they were short staffed, so we were ready to be patient, however the entire night it was just us and one or two other tables, which should have been more than manageable even with limited staff. The bartender took our initial drink orders quickly and brought the drinks quickly, so that was a plus. We ordered two appetizers, fried mozzarella and a small Caesar salad. It took forever to get the two appetizers, and our server had come back to take our dinner order before the appetizers even arrived. We did get bread with butter and dipping oil before the apps arrived, but no plates, napkins or silverware, we had to hunt out server down to get those. I had decided on penne a la vodka, which came with a salad. So I said, well I already ordered the Caesar salad, can that be my dinner salad? Sure, he says. (Fast forward to the end, nope, I was charged $8.95, so never got my free salad with dinner. Sure it was bigger, but a) I would have been fine with the dinner size, since they had not brought it yet and b) if you give me the larger one maybe upcharge me $3 or $4 instead of the full $8.95. Nope.) My friend who also ordered a dinner that came with a salad ordered a Caesar with no upcharge. The others in my group ordered a chicken parmesan grinder, penne a la vodka with chicken, and a Philly cheesesteak on a roll instead of a grinder, ordered as just steak and cheese on a roll, nothing else, and fries. Our appetizers came, fried mozzarella was lukewarm at best. Surprising since it took so long that it wasn't hot. Caesar salad was good, sadly it was the best thing I ate all night. Entrees started to arrive. Chicken parm grinder and cheesesteak arrive first. Then we see our server serving the only other table of people, multiple back and forth trips while not coming back with the rest of our food. Chicken parm grinder was dry, so we were waiting to ask for a side of sauce. Cheesesteak was made with mushrooms and some sort of gravy, so was waiting to be sent back since it was not as ordered. Several minutes later, the two penne a la vodka dishes show up. These were piping hot. We ask for the sauce and send the "cheesesteak" back, still no mention of the fries. The penne a la vodka was hot, but was more like penne with marinara, and not really worth the $19.95 price tag. Thank goodness for Parmesan on the table. Cheesesteak comes back, still missing the fries, mushrooms gone, but random gravy sauce still there, and it was not hot. It sort of looked and smelled like beef stew on a roll. One slice of white cheese melted on the top part of the roll. I wish I got a photo of it. My friend took one bite, and sent it back again. She finally got the fries, but was too annoyed to eat more than a couple. When the bill came, we found out that the crappy chicken on the penne a la vodka was a $9 up charge. Their prices are not substantiated by the quality of food or service (or lack thereof). Toward the end of our time there, a large crowd of people emerged from the kitchen and started walking behind the bar and then sat at the bar. We weren't sure if they worked there, or were friends of the people working there, but service all but stopped at that point. We weren't offered any additional drinks or anything. If you're telling people you're stressed because you're understaffed, maybe don't invite 10 of your friends to come hang out to further distract you from your 7-8 paying customers. I know this place changed owners and names due to some criminal activity related to the prior owner. Google Bachi's if you want more details. But the new Giovanni's is lacking in service and quality, and prices are too high for what you're served. Not that I'm in Torrington that often anyway, but I wouldn't come back, and wouldn't recommend Giovanni's if you're in the area, unless you just want to stop in for a drink.

Takeout Review: I…read morealways drive by this place, so I decided to check it out finally. Coming from Rhode Island, I love my fresh seafood. The parking lot was spacious and always packed. The restaurant is nautical themed and it's not a fancy place but definitely a homey place. The service was great with ordering and picking up takeout. The prices were a little higher for the dinner options; I understand the situation, due to inflation and fresh seafood is usually more pricey. For starters, I had to try out their thick and creamy New England clam chowder; it was not the best I've ever had but it was a 3.5/5. My main meal was the crab cake sandwich and fries; it came with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and spicy delta tarter sauce. The crab cake was deep fried and perfectly crunchy. The fries were one of the best takeout fries I've had, it's was super crispy even after picking it up and driving home with it. Overall, my family and I enjoyed our meals!

The clam chowder was a bit over thickened, though was passable I would give it a grade of C. The classic fish sandwich came with cheese on it, which may be a bit unusual, but was fairly good. The whole belly fried clams were pretty good but for $35 was not a reason to come back. Overall, I would say that for a $64 lunch with a $10 tip. It was pricey and not positively memorable. The service was good in a restaurant that was not terribly busy at 1:30 in the afternoon on a Sunday.

After moving to a town in Massachusetts about half an hour north of Mario's, we were thrilled to discover this restaurant since we came from an area known for outstanding dining, Mario's keeps up to that standard.

I can't say enough good things about this place, a must try!!!

If comfort had an address, it would be Mario's. We always kick things off with a small pizza for the table, because that's the law here. The bread and tomato relish? Should be sold by the gallon. I would pay an irresponsible amount of money for it. If you know, you know. Last night's table lineup was elite: * One of us ordered the veal Neapolitan -- fresh, tender veal in a vodka sauce so good it should have its own fan club. * Another went for the penne alla vodka with shrimp and scallop, which was hands‑down the best dish of the night. The seafood takes an already top‑tier vodka sauce and somehow makes it even better. As a Jersey boy, I don't say that lightly. * I decided to go rogue and step outside my usual penne vodka or steak. I wanted veal parm. I've never had anything fried here besides the calamari (which is amazing), so I figured: why not? Here's the plot twist: The veal parm was the only dish I've ever had at Mario's that didn't hit the usual Mario's standard. The veal itself was totally different from the fresh, delicious cut in the Neapolitan, and the breading had a little... funk. Almost like it had been prepped ahead and picked up a freezer‑burn vibe. Not bad -- just not Mario's‑level magical. But here's the thing: One imperfect dish doesn't change the fact that Mario's is one of our all‑time favorite restaurants. The atmosphere, the people, the consistency, the warmth -- it's all unbeatable. We love this place and will absolutely be back, probably embarrassingly soon. Mario's is home. Even when one dish misses, the experience never does.
