My mom, sister, and I were there for marathon weekend and the staff there was so kind and helpful! The food was really delicious and I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. read more

A small but well composed menu, expertly executed by a really talented chef. A beautiful venue, cozy and intimate, with a well stocked bar, abundant, Italian wines by the glass, and even more selections by the bottle. Beers and craft cocktails. The bakery on premises makes their own rustic bread, as well as a variety of desserts. Great leisurely service. Just outstanding. read more

First time dining here. Heard the food was good, but expensive. The atmosphere and environment are really unique and intimate. The decor is flattering but simple. They serve complementary warm bread with garlic herb butter and it's delicious. The heirloom and burrata salad was the perfect starter, so fresh. I got the spaghetti with clams and it was one of the best I've had in New England. My mom got the special and really enjoyed it. We shared the grilled artichoke and were really surprised at how generous the portion was and how affordable the price was. Service was fine. Nothing noteworthy. Didn't get checked on very often, but maybe that's their style? Either way, really good experience. Would recommend and would go back. read more

We visited Trattoria Delia during our first trip to Burlington two years ago and had an incredible experience, so naturally, we made reservations to return on this year's trip to Vermont. Unfortunately, I think this visit will be our last. Two years ago, we ordered their meats, and everything was phenomenal. This time, we decided to try their pastas, and it was a mistake. How an Italian restaurant of this caliber can mess up pasta is beyond me, but it was bad. My husband ordered the bucatini all'amatriciana (or maybe it was spaghetti?), and it was anything but amatriciana. The pasta was drowning in a tomato sauce that tasted like Chef Boyardee, the guanciale was barely noticeable, and the whole dish had an overly watery, acidic flavor. It was awful. I ordered the mushroom fettuccine, which was better but still not my favorite. They went way overboard with the cream, throwing off the balance completely. For dessert, we ordered affogato, but our waitress walked away so quickly we didn't even have a chance to specify whether we wanted it with amaro or limoncello. She didn't ask, either, and ended up bringing ice cream without any topping (which was supposed to be included) and with a lackluster presentation. To be fair, the appetizers were excellent. The duck confit and crostini topped with sardines were both perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. The price-to-portion ratio for the appetizers was also great, and we still loved the cozy, romantic ambiance of the restaurant. But there's no excuse for how disappointing the entrees were. For the price and reputation, we expected so much better. read more

Neat looking inside, old world, but my husband and I both ordered the gnocchi and it was by far the worst meal we have ever had. We absolutely could not eat it. The beef tasted about 4 days old. They graciously removed the charge for our entrees and offered us anything else we wanted from the menu, but we declined. Our server (fe), whose name I didn't get, was great, so nothing against her. read more

A cute little Italian restaurant in downtown Burlington. The food is good and the service was fantastic. You can reserve on resy. I wish the prices were a bit lower. Duck confit is the best! read more

Food and service were great. The homemade bread and pasta delicious. Would have liked a salad to be included with Entree. It is very dark inside and takes time to adjust to. read more

I was hopeful about this place based on the reviews and the ambiance. But it was just 'okay.' We had Cioppino, which was quite tasty. However, I am more sure if three shrimps and some mussels and clams justify the price of $36! Then we had the rigatoni primavera hoping that it would be great as the pasta was made by them. But it was too al dDante and the arugula pesto did not have any taste. It lacked seasoning and any taste. It was an average dinner but I wouldn't recommend where Burlington is full of other tasty options. read more

The food and drinks were amazing. You could tell that the pasta was fresh along with all of the ingredients they used. Our waiter took very good care of us. And the restaurant itself was very quaint, rustic and dim. It was very lovely. read more

Had a lovely dinner here. With dark wood and a fireplace, the ambiance, as others have said, is warm and cozy. The bread was some of the best bread I've had, and the butter mixed with parsley, rosemary, and a few other herbs was delicious. The ragu pasta was as well. Our waitress warned us that the lobster pasta was very "citrus-y," but we went ahead and ordered it despite the heads-up. In the end, it was too citrus-y and spicy. I don't particularly like Italian pasta dishes to be "spicy," so I would steer clear of this one. That being said, if they had a more traditional lobster pasta dish with white wine sauce or a garlic butter sauce I would absolutely go for it. Wish they did. The quality of the pasta was great -- fresh and al dente. Our waitress was personable, knowledgable, and responsible with allergy concerns. She also packed up an extra loaf of bread with our leftovers when we asked to take the bread on the table home (it was that good). Would highly recommend this place! Just avoid the lobster pasta if you don't like spicy pasta. read more

Just went to Trattoria Delia for my brother's birthday and boy am I glad I didn't disappoint my family lol the ambience is dark lit yet beautiful like inside the tavern. The bread was served with herbed butter( first time). I had the tagliatelle de funghi and may I just say it was the best I'd ever had. My family started off with the batu (duck confit) and it was delicious! Everything was delicious and the service was impeccable. Thank you and I hope the next time I come to Vermont I'll try your restaurant again soon! read more

I had a delicious dinner at the bar. Everything was great. This halibut dish is a masterclass in balanced, seasonal cooking. The fish is perfectly cooked. It was tender, flaky, and buttery, with a clean flavor that shines through. It was nestled in a velvety corn and zucchini broth that's both comforting and slightly sweet, with grilled zucchini adding a welcome earthy note. A beautiful and delicate pesto sauce on top brings a bright, herbaceous kick that ties everything together beautifully. Every bite feels intentional, layered, and deeply satisfying. read more

Last night my boyfriend and I decided to try dining here after looking at the menu online and everything sounded delicious! Inside is very cozy, dark, but enough light to be able to read the menus and still have a romantic feel to it. I got the zuppa di pesce, which was AMAZING. It was so good. My boyfriend got the rigatoni Bolognese. He raved over his meal as well! Our server Sarah was very attentive and knowledgeable and recommended that we paired a wine (forgetting which) with the meal. It was a great combination. This was our first experience here and we will definitely be back. Thank you for such lovely dining experience! read more

Romantic, atmospheric. Lovely staff. Fresh-made pasta tastes like Italy itself, authentic tiramisu servings so generous you'll have no choice but to share. Favorite restaurant in BTV, hands down read more

Absolutely outstanding food. Truly the best in Vermont hands down We go back every year & can't get over how good it is. Friendly & courteous staff from everyone from the hostess, wait staff & bartenders. Cozy, quiet. Gives off a fancy cabin in woods sort of feel. read more

Always a great spot. Food is always top notch Italian staples, interior is all dark leather, warm and comforting.

Excellent, quality, authentic Italian meal at this place. The dimly lit restaurant had the perfect lighting for a gorgeous ambiance. The manager was incredibly attentive and made sure that we were sat promptly and even asked us what kind of water we wanted as we sat down. This was a really nice touch to get the ball rolling and I want to commend this man on how he runs this place. Well done. Service was as good as can be expected nowadays, I do appreciate anyone who is willing to work nowadays, it just seems like no one wants to. We ordered 2 pasta dishes, Both different ragu and broccoli rabe to share. Flavor was excellent on all dishes, bread was warm and fresh, olive oil was on point, excellent! Dessert looked good too but we were too full this time. Next time! Stop in here for an exceptional Italian dining experience read more

Our first visit to Burlington VT, and happy to enjoy great restaurants, Trattoria Delia among them. The dining room is very casual and cozy, with warm and friendly service. Cocktails were top notch, and we found a good mix of traditional Italian dishes, but some with very interesting twists. We tried a delicious salad, which was not your standard green salad, but a mix of grains, cheese and apples that really did all work together. The home made gnocchi were also very good. Be sure to have a reservation, this and all the other restaurants in the area seemed very busy. read more

Great Italian spot in Burlington tucked away in a windowless little cavern that is SO COZY and pretty inside. Definitely could have tricked my mind that I was in some hometown restaurant in a small Italian time. Felt like a very local spot. Prices are slightly on higher end, but well worth it imho. Solid selection of pastas, which seem to change through out the year (at least based on Yelp photo searches!). The homemade bread was on point, and the calamari appetizer was one of the better versions I've had for quite a while. read more

Another great experience. It's been four years since our last visit and we were looking forward to eating here again. We weren't disappointed!

I really like this place. It used to have a dark Bavarian ski lodge vibe, that wasn't working, but now it feels lighter. Hot tip: it's hard to trust a good joint that has carpet in it. That said, although their menu doesn't change a lot, what they have is good. I know we live in a town where the locals call marinara or tomato basil...red sauce. But, not these guys. It's obvious these guys have an Italian history and can execute consistently. Best place to enjoy a date with a light pasta and a bottle of wine. Enjoy. read more

Went on a Wednesday night. It gets packed really fast. Highly recommend making reservations. The service was incredible from the moment you walk in to the moment you walk out. The bread and herded butter was so warm and fresh. I typically do not order a non-pasta or typical Italian dish, but I ordered the braised beef short rib in the red wine sauce. The meal was to die for. It was extremely tender, melted in your mouth, and I can eat the red wine sauce by itself any day! Being from NY I was not sure how the cannoli would be compared to NY - but it was not bad and had an interesting twist of having lemon flavor in the cannoli cream. Will definitely go again if in town again! read more

Had a reservation here for birthday dinner and it was a bit underwhelming. The interior of the restaurant was beautiful and I liked the overall atmosphere. First, the reservation stated it was birthday dinner but neither the receptionist nor our server noticed that. The food and wine selection were great - I'm sure everyone can find something they like here. Most of their pasta is made in house although there are 2-3 kinds that are imported. Our order took about 15-20 mins to get done. I had a specialty pasta with prosciutto and peas. It came with pancetta instead of prosciutto and had no peas. Wine was great on the other hand and so was fresh bread. Butter was very cold and hard to spread on the bread. We also ordered a cake and a cannoli for dessert but cannoli was never delivered. In the end, for $120 you get nice interior, mediocre food, good wine, and subpar service. I was expecting a lot more from this restaurant given the hype but had a pretty average experience for high price. read more

Bartender was very rude. Still showed reservations up until 10 on Resy. Would have reserved but we knew we would be there in time. When we arrived the Restaurant was still very busy and he told us they were closed. Didn't even asked if we were there for dinner or just drinks. Just told us they were closed. I was in the restaurant business for many years and would never treat a customer with this much rudeness! Very disappointed. Would not recommend if this is how they treat customers read more

Likely the best restaurant in Burlington. Walked into a beautiful bar and dining room. Low light with fireplace. Fantastic atmosphere. Delicious bread to start without asking. My wife and I started with whiskey sour cocktails which were so good we needed to ask the bartender for recipe. Had an amazing maple flavor to them. I ordered the ragu which was fantastic, and I would suggest you ask for it spicy, which was an off menu request but suggested by our awesome waitress. My wife ordered scallops and pasta and also love it. Everything was extremely fresh and perfectly cooked. The service was perfect. Great spot, will be back! read more

Best Italian food I've had! Trattoria Delia is the real deal. I love the style of this restaurant. Calm and dark atmosphere with great service. Before the meal, you will be served bread. I went with the scallop and mushroom Garganelli for my main course. This was a specialty dish. It was my first time trying Garganelli pasta, but it definitely won't be the last. This type of noodle goes great with the creamy mushroom sauce. Scallops were rich and flavorful. Amazing pasta! One thing I will add, I traveled to Italy for two weeks after eating here. This was still the best pasta I've ever had! Over all, this was one of my favorite eating establishments I've been to. I give it a perfect 5 out of 5 rating. I will return every time in back in Burlington read more

Excellent place. The food was incredible - the drinks were delicious! You can even get a glass of Barolo! Great for groups. Not a lot for tables for two, but two would still have a nice time. Zero complaints and all compliments. The antipasto is not what I imagine when I think of antipasto but it is what I always want when I order antipasto - the Perfect appetizer! Cocktails were delicious with lovely choices of glassware. Tiramisu was delicious. After dinner coffee hit the spot. read more

Whoa...delicious! This was our first time in Burlington and I was totally unaware that reservations on/around Church St. can fill up fast. We couldn't find anything for Saturday night but decided to call Trattoria Delia and ask for a table...the man who answered said they were full but would call back within 30min if a table became available. 20min later, he called and said he was holding a table! We walked quickly and were happy to find that it's a very cozy restaurant with great service and delicious food. My filet was cooked to a perfect medium rare and my wife's short ribs were excellent (of course I tried them!). The beet salad was great, the charcuterie plate was great, and the chocolate torte was...you got it, great. And oh, their bread is FANTASTIC with a wonderful butter. The next time we're in Burlington I'm sure we will go there again. Huzzah! read more

It's really, really, really hard to find truly Authentic Italian food in Vermont (Italian American does not count) but this place definitely hit the target. So good on all levels. No surprise they also own Verita which is the most traditional Neapolitan pizza outside of Italy. I'd love to try their Sotto place too but it never seems open. read more

This place was sooo cute! It almost looks like a little hole in the wall when you walk in. As soon as you enter, the vibe is super warm and cozy. We got lucky and were able to make a reservation last minute for four, so we got a table right away. My family and I love calamari so we ordered it as an appetizer and it was so fresh! Cooked perfectly. For my main course I was looking through some pictures on yelp and saw a white sauce tagliatelle dish that had scallops. I didn't see it on the menu, but I asked our waiter and he said they could make it. The pasta was delicious, but the scallops kind of had a really weird taste to it. Overall though, the pasta and sauce made up for that. Would highly recommend this one. Finally, we ordered a tiramisu for the table and oh my goodness I cannot say enough good things about it. You MUST order the tiramisu! It was big enough for the 4 of us cuz it was in a big bowl. So fresh, great flavor, and just delectable! Overall, highly recommend this place. Cozy atmosphere, kind service, and delicious food! read more

I liked this place a lot. It had a very intimate atmosphere, the outdoor dining looked very nice as well. Although it was a little dark inside it fit the vibe of the overall restaurant. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. I appreciated the flexibility I was provided on my order, I got a dish that typically called for Gnocchi but since I am not a gnocchi fan they agreed to change the pasta for me. Overall great experience. Only critique was that the food could have been a bit hotter. read more

OMG! Antipasto misto. Huge and amazing! Great selection. First goat cheese I liked. Ever. Super creamy and not overly tart. There was: mortadella (think bologna), prosciutto, 2 pieces of grilled bread w/soft goat cheese, hot and mild salami, eggplant caponata, black olives(strong oregano flavor), housemade sweet pickles, 2 hard aged cheeses and a soft mozzarella and a carmelized onion relish that reminded me of onion soup. Grilled artichoke hearts. Warm, charred. Warm crusty bread w/herbed butter or olive oil 14th star brewing maple breakfast stout. So good with a hint of maple Sauvignon Blanc Split order of gnocchi w/wild boar and mushrooms. Such amazing flavor! The gnocchi was soft, kind of cubed. The wild boar was super tender and full of flavor with a stroganoff-like sauce. Profiteroles filled w/vanilla gelato. Wife allergic to chocolate so they offered caramel sauce topping. Flourless chocolate torte w/salted caramel sauce. So dense almost like fudge Decaf coffee was nutty and hot. Great Italian meal. Agne, the bartender was our server and she proved to be a knowledgeable server. I would go back! read more
