    Pasta Bolognaise
    Charles L.

    In a word, everything went well! Food is always fresh, served in abundance, smiling friendly service in a classic restaurant ambiance. Chef Antonio often will sit down at the table with you and offers free shots of limoncello. This restaurant also has a full bar and an extensive wine list that encompasses inexpensive to very pricey wines. This restaurant is best when accompanied by a small group of friends.

    Have been twice and it is an experience for sure. The atmosphere is something unique and genuine. They certainly want you to leave with stories to tell. My first time here I was a bit overwhelmed. The sheer magnitude of some of the meals is something I was not prepared for. Some of the dinners are extremely large and served in sauté pans that other restaurants would only use for banquet style preparations. The food a good and unapologetic. You can find more restrained menu items or go big with large trays of meats or seafood. It is nice when the chefs and owners spend time in the dining room and makes for a cozy, family dinner vibe atmosphere.

    Tramonti is not for the weak-appetite, come hungry! The portion sizes are unreal - all of our meals were served in full size skillets and we had leftovers for 3 more meals afterwards! Not to mention the complimentary bread, bruschetta and mussels. It's not the most authentic Italian food I've ever had, and sometimes less is more, but everything was enjoyable. Somehow we left room for dessert and it was worth it - both the limoncello and affogato were out of this world, along with the complimentary delicious limoncello shots! Service was excellent and attentive, everyone was constantly buzzing around checking if we needed refills or if they could clear our plates. My only complaint would be the acoustics - the music was blasting so everyone was yelling to hear each other at nearby tables. Otherwise, a great, fun atmosphere!

    So i did a to go today. I ordered the Pesto pasta with fettuccine and meat balls. OMG. I did not expect that they will also give me a whole loaf of bread and a tray of mussels on a delicious tomato based sauce! Yums! It was very convenient. Easy service. I called and set up a time. I picked it up and as i arrived home i devour. It was a to-go so my home/ ambiance is always amazing and comfy. I told you guys this place is a go to for Italian food.

    I really enjoy Tramonti. It has a joy filled atmosphere that really makes you feel a part of something. This was my second time dining here and I sat at the bar as a small treat to myself after my birthday. I am not a drinker so I didn't have any limoncello shots. The bartender was attentive and asked before serving them since I ordered a virgin drink. The mango drink was phenomenal. I refrained from ordering more. It had a punch of ginger and the mango flavor was so juicy- it made me long for a trip to a beach. Their bread is so flavorful. It has that crunch on the outside but it is soft on the inside. The texture is what I imagine takes skill to achieve. Not too heavy but very rich. The olive oil brings out the flavor. You don't even need butter. I ordered the bone marrow as a starter. The honey gave a sweet flavor that was rich and luxurious. I felt like a movie star eating this. I don't know why I ordered such a big appetizer knowing I was siting alone. Would I order again? Yes, yes indeed. I was also offered mussels and anipasta just for being a guest. The bruschetta was superb! Very fresh tasting toppings. I loved the olives and salami. I love the mix of salty, brined, refreshing from all the different elements. I loved the mussels. And I am not someone that typically eats mussels. I prefer clams or oysters. But the red sauce on the mussels is PHENOMENAL. I found myself dipping the bread in it. My meal was the chicken Marsala. By the time it came - which didn't take long. I was already full. I ate about three bites of this dish before asking to wrap everything. The Marsala was a bit bland to my taste. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the presentation was awesome. I was so happy to have leftovers for the snow storm that was scheduled to come the next day. I plan to return and I'll probably sit at the bar again and order less food. I highly recommend.

    This is a special restaurant but stay away from the specials. I have a mentor that tells me he never orders from the special menu. His logic is that if it was that special it would be on the regular menu. But in Tramontis case it likely will end up in you having a bad experience and a bad taste in your mouth. I did my research and it seems many of the bad reviews stem from the diner not asking about the Market Price on the specials menu and absolutely being stunned about the price. I would have to agree. Over $100 for a halibut dish. $300 for a mixed grill dish. For a restaurant that is so intent on having a good time and an awesome experience it seems really opposite of their philosophy. So do yourself a favor. Dont order from the specials. Now that we got that out of the way. I had a really good time at Tramonti. We came here Sunday at noon and was the 3rd group seated. Its a deceptively large restaurant. We ordered a bottle of wine, an appetizer, 3 main dishes and a dessert. I think by now everyone knows about the free antipasto and the mussels. They are very good and a very good portion. The fried calamari was disappointing. I order fried calamari wherever they offer it. It gives me a good gauge of the restaurant. Unfortunately the calamari was not good. It wasnt that crispy and the quality of the calamari was subpar. Id probably not order it next time. Our main dishes were very good. My shrimp scampi was great. The lemony zest was great and the sauce was perfectly executed. Penne alla vodka with meatballs were excellent. Penne was perfect al dente. Italian combo was good but maybe a bit too heavy as its overloaded with cheese. They were constantly coming over with more shots of limoncello. For dessert we ordered the Tiramisu but it needed another 30 minutes to get ready so we opted to get the Almond cake. It was really good! And because they didnt have Tiramisu available they comped the almond cake. Great customer service. Our server Matteo was exceptional. Make sure you have a designated driver. After two shots of limoncello, Mexican coffee and a split bottle of wine I was toast. It was a great meal. Will be back!

    I'm a huge fan of Tramonti! The hype is real here- gigantic portions, incredible service and hospitality, and incredible meals! Be prepared to be here for a while this place is all about having an incredible experience from the moment you step into this restaurant to the moment you leave it! With that said, the service is Incredible- acknowledging wait times due to the made to order and incredibly fresh food - your waiter will offer you complimentary bruschetta, mussels and limoncello between courses. What a fun touch! We love these apps and limoncello! What stands out is our chef that probably made contact with us at least 3 times. I kept telling my husband that this chef is so friendly and chatted with literally every person who came in tonight- not just parties but literally individual people. I've never seen anything like this before it was really cool. The meals take a while but if you check out their instagram you can see that each meal is cooked to order and is super fresh! You will literally get an entire skillet served to you that how gigantic your meal will be! Everything we ordered was fantastic. We got the Zuppa dj pesce, pasta carbonara, veal Cacciatore, and chicken Francese. My carbonara lasted me 3 extra lunches and was even more incredible the next day! This dish was not too heavy and had a perfect flavor with pancetta! Oh and did I mention it's gigantic?! My favorite meal though had to be my mother in laws chicken Francese it was so incredible. The sauce was so light, lemony, and flavorful and the chicken was so tender! That in combo with the pasta in the sauce was chefs kiss! Desserts looked incredible but we were all stuffed from dinner. We are definitely going to come back and try those and other menu items soon! My husband already wants to come back for his birthday in February ! Check them out!! Come hungry!!

    To be honest if I can give them more stars I would. Service/server Allison was extremely attentive, welcoming and such a warm personality along with informative for her recommendations and knowledge of the dishes being served. The Team/cooking and waiters were among the very best. We were welcomed with complimentary Limoncello. Chef Antonio was top notch welcoming all his customers and attentive making you feel as if you were dining in his home for a family dinner The Food, I'm not sure I can even put into words, "Over the top" homestyle Italian, we had quite the variety of appetizers and dinners and each one was pure "Amazingness" I'm already looking forward to my next dinning experience at Tramonti. Eating dinner at Tramonti is not just "Going out to dinner" which is what we are all used to today. It's a real "Dining Experience" Our night ended with one of the warmest most genuine hugs from Chef Antonio which made us feel like we were family.

    Chef made us this clam appetizer
    Debrin S.

    Think....Big. Big everything. Big & bold. Service is attentive, knowledgeable, creating each experience for your enjoyment. Cuisine is classic Italian with a very long, broad menu of options like chops, steak, pastas of every variety, shellfish, seafood, as well as a dozen daily seasonal specials. MASSIVE portions should give you a few days of leftovers. Now to qualify massive; picture your largest frying pan filled to the brim with bubbling thick chicken Parm smothered among fresh strands of linguine! Antonio & his team are hands on, professional yet inviting, making his diners feel special, yes "like family". Should you prefer something special, unique, rare, on the side, if they can make it happen, the answer is "YES!" The whole experience makes for a festive memorable evening.

    Chicken Marsala
    Kimberly G.

    Amazing service, incredible food, beautiful restaurant, epic proportions! Highly recommend!

    Lots of pasta, chicken parm and manicotti.
    Chris S.

    Highly recommend Tramonti. This place is a gem and absolutely deserves to be on your radar. Go hungry... and get ready to eat... and eat... and eat. Bring a serious appetite and plan to indulge. Save room for dessert, too. From the road, Tramonti is easy to miss. Nestled in a strip mall, it looks like just another Italian restaurant--but don't be fooled by the modest exterior. Inside, you're greeted with warm smiles and the inviting aroma of roasted garlic, good wine, and the happy buzz of fellow diners. The menu offers the Italian fare you'd expect--and then some. Multiple risotto options, plenty of specials, a generous wine list, mocktails, and even a variety of bottled waters give you lots to choose from. We started with the fried zucchini appetizer, which was perfectly cooked: crispy, light, and showered with Parmesan. The chef also sent out complimentary dishes, including antipasto, mussels, and a shot of limoncello--an unexpectedly generous and welcome touch. When the entrees arrived, the portions were massive and everything was delicious. The pasta was well salted and cooked just right. The chicken Parmesan was a bit pricey, but absolutely worth the indulgence. Looking around the dining room, it's clear this place prides itself on huge portions and a "you won't leave hungry" philosophy. Service was exceptional--polite, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. Clear out your fridge before you go, because odds are you'll be taking home leftovers.

    Rigatoni and meatballs
    Marie K.

    The food was over the top. Glad we didn't order and appetizers. It was difficult since the selections were very tempting. All of the dishes were served in a sauté type pan. Can't say enough about this restaurant! Will be back!

    Penne al la vodka
    Kyra M.

    One of the most unique authentic Italian places I have found in the US let alone Thomaston Connecticut! It is the perfect spot for a party where people love to eat. The portions are out of this world! I think 2lbs of pasta per dish!! The quality was excellent though! I got the pasta vodka with rigatoni which was fantastic and reheats well since you get so much! The chicken cutlets were great and each dish comes with 5 chicken cutlets!!! The wait staff was amazing, and the manager came and checked in on us! The whole experience was about 2.5 hours. The chef brought us out free muscles and free bruschetta for the table as well as free bread and oil and balsamic. We were full before the huge pasta arrived! The cocktails were also amazing, I got the garden which had gin and lychee which was very well balanced and not too sweet. The crème Brulé was so rich and creamy and the burnt sugar crust I am still thinking about it was so amazing. This place is an absolute must try!! So fun as a group and will feed you for 3+ meals afterwards.

    Painkiller...awesome drink!

    We've been struggling to find a great restaurant in Torrington. Somewhere where the service and the…read morefood are excellent and well worth the price- Sasso's exceeded our expectation. We live around the area kept saying to ourselves throughout the night "why haven't we been here before? We've been missing out on such good food" There seems to be a lot of seating both inside and outside so that's a plus since we were able to get seated right away without a reservation on a Friday night. (they were already pretty busy) Our waitress was so friendly and super attentive even with all the tables she had. Now on to the food! Everything was cooked to perfection and beautifully plated. You could tell that whoever is cooking genuinely cares about the food that is coming out of that kitchen. To start we ordered the Spinach Artichoke Dip w/ Garlic Parm Crostini and the Antipasto Salad. (Not pictured) Everything came out in great portions to share and even the crostinis were packed full of flavor which brought the dip up another notch. The salad was fresh, colorful and absolutely delicious. For our entree we both ordered the Steak Frites-cooked medium. Both of our steaks were cooked to perfection and the chimichurri was herby, savory and even had a little bite to it-it was phenomenal. To add to the mix the frites had parm & garlic to make them even tastier To finish, after a very long day- we knew that an affogato would just finish this meal off perfectly and we were right. It was delicious and the candied walnuts were such a nice touch to add for texture. (My husband now has a new favorite dessert) Needless to say we will absolutely be back, and more than likely bringing many others in tow to share an absolutely wonderful meal!

    This is unfortunately a lousy review of this restaurant. Let me be clear that the food here is…read moregood. The problem for this visit was that the waiter we had was completetly incompetent. We arrived a few minutes after 6 and had no reservations but they had a table for us. Our waiter came over and said he wanted to put the food order in right away since they wer busy. We did. A salad, an app of oven roasted clams and a pizza. We got our drinks and 40 minutes later had to ask our waiter to rattle the kitche for our food, He then finally brough salad and clams. Now let be real. Any kitchen that cant crank out a salad and clams in less tha 15 minutes is a travesty. We were sitting right next to the take out line and the kitchen was right behind us. they were moving food very efficently. But not ours apparently. After an hour and 20 inutes we had to go and see the perfomance we had tickets for. never got our pizza. Now a table behind us came in 40 minutes after us and got three pizzas before us. Obviously our waiter screwed up and never placed our order. So Sasso management if you care about your reputation here is my name and address . Maybe you sent a gift certificate, Russ Asklof 116 Robin Drive, Canton Ct 06019. I will be back but will ask for a competent waiter. Regards
