    Pizza? Look close. Almost no sauce. Thin crunchy bland stale tasting crust. Basically raw, just melted the cheese. Then it arrived ice cold.
    Andy H.

    As bad as pizza can be. Stale and crunchy crust, barely any sauce, overall just bland. The picture looks okay but it lies. Ordered delivery, took 1 3/4 hours to arrive cold. If we didn't have an oven to finish cooking it, we wouldn't be able to eat it!

    Slap the calzone.

    Riverbend Pizza was a staple when I was temporarily a Plainville resident all the way back in 2009. This small little pizza place tucked away in a plaza is definitely a hidden little gem if you aren't paying attention. I was back in Connecticut visiting family over the weekend and decided it was time to revisit this place with some takeout! I ordered a calzone with sausage and meatball and since I'm never here I definitely some of my moms chicken Parmesan sub as well. The calzone was just as delicious as I remembered and although the calzones here are pretty small, they do pack a tasty punch! The half of chicken Parmesan sub I had was a banger as well. The chicken was delicious and the same goes for the cheese and sauce it was slathered in. If you live in the Plainville/Southington area you owe it to yourself to give Riverbend Pizza a try, it's a decision you won't regret!

    Greek pizza and meatball and pepperoni

    Eh thicker crust then I like. A definite harder pizza then I like. No enjoyable flop. But for a Greek pizza it's good so would I go again for Greek pizza but only Greek pizza.

Apps came out before drinks and the food was super quick overall, service felt a bit slower but everyone was still very helpful, and friendly. The cacio e pepe was a little too peppery for me but maybe that's the point, the chicken cutlet was perfect...crispy and juicy and the meatballs had a great little kick. Ended with the cheesecake that was rich and creamy, wish there was a bit more crust. Overall, great vibes and I'd definitely be back to try something different

    Decided to try Noto Americano for the 1st time for Father's Day takeout. We ordered the Chicken…read moreParmigana, Lemon Bay Chicken and a Meatball Grinder. The price for takeout for these (3) things were on the high side to not include a side salad. With that said, we were aware that those weren't included as it wasnt listed on their online ordering. We just figured the portion for both Entrees were likely larger and thats why you paid a la carte for the salad. We come back home with the takeout and to our surprise for quite a high price, the portions were small. How small, each meal fit with pasta inside a plastic container, similar to those used for Asian takeout. For any other restaurant that serves Chicken Parmigana, its always been a larger round metal dish with pasta on the side. Typically with 2 pieces of chicken. Putting portion aside as one can argue that we may have been able to find that out before ordering, the (2) entrees were not great. The Chicken Parmigana had one piece of chicken and the chicken was charred, dry, minimal amount of cheese and the both the chicken and pasta itself had a scarce amount of pasta sauce. I found myself having to scrub the side of the dish for any sauce left. The lemon bay chicken was also quite dry and unfortunately the mixture of recip (chicken, pasta and sauce) was quite tasteless. I'm not typically one to leave a 1 or 2 star reviews often, as I'd rather just not go again to the place where I had said experience but between the quality of food, price and portion, this place falls into a bit of an exception for me. Look, I've eaten at many places, if your portions are going to small for the price (and without sides), then the quality needs to EXCEED the excepted regional standard for that dish to justify that reasoning. This experience did not do that, instead we are left with half of take home container of each meal that we will have to toss in trash for Fathers Day.

She was fantastic. We got there a little early so the tables weren't quite ready but Jamie set the tables as quickly as she could so we could sit. Jamie immediately explained the prefix menu for our group and took our orders. I have to say for a group of 30 we had our apps, drinks and dinner without waiting. Jamie made sure everyone had the correct meals and that our steaks were cooked to our liking. Everything was amazing. I would highly recommend this place. I would ask for Jamie's section. You won't be disappointed.

The portions here are downright ridiculous, in the best way possible. We shared My Mother's Chips, and that dip! Probably the best part of the appetizer. We each ordered a pasta dish, and both were good. Piece of advice: BOOK A RESERVATION, especially on a Friday or weekend. The place was packed. Whether you're planning a date night or celebrating something special, Viron delivers. Good food, beautiful atmosphere and plenty of parking.

The restaurant was still decorated for the holidays and everything looked beautiful from the lights and wreaths to all the fireplaces. After we arrived they brought out bread with some oil, parmesan and chili flakes for dipping. For our entrees, we tried the Filet, the Asian salmon and the shrimp and chicken dish. Everyone was very pleased with the taste and presentation. Our group stuck around and talked for a while and no one tried to rush us out which made for a very nice evening.

The parking lot is huge and it was difficult to find a spot, ladies have your gentlemen leave you at the front door .

They worked around every single allergy of mine and were wonderful about all of it. The food was delicious and the portions are gracious. The outside I noted had a little pond but honestly we didn't get to check out every detail of the place because let's face it, it's New England in December ... it's freezing cold outside and I was in a skirt. The place is casual wear. I was def overdressed. Def worth a try.
