just tried tutti pazzi in stamford after seeing their pasta flights all over instagram & honestly... i had such high expectations. the drinks were alright, but the standout for me was definitely the burrata appetizer -- super fresh & probably the best part of the meal. when it came to the pasta though, everything felt very mid for an italian restaurant. nothing was bad, but nothing really wowed me either. the service was also surprisingly slow considering the restaurant wasn't busy at all on a saturday night. overall, a little disappointing compared to the hype. read more

Haven't been here since Quattro Pazzi moved to Darien. The new operation was disappointing. Upstairs was busy but well staffed.... and LOUD! But why did my pasta come at the same time as my limp Caesar salad? Garlic bread was pre sliced and served with a mild tomato sauce. My wife's Avocado Salad was a gooey mess of what looked like guacamole mixed with salad, piled high. Unseasoned, she had to ask for some pepper flakes. My pasta was good! Rich and creamy Better food and service is just up the road, Rt 1 near the Norwalk town line: Paparazzi's read more

The restaurant is located downtown right in front of the Avon Theater. There is plenty of parking around and a garage around back. The restaurant is two floors with the top floor being the main dining area it seemed. It had Nice views of the Stamford nightlife from the windows. The servers were nice and attentive. We got the mussels to start and they were delicious! The table got a variety of pizzas, pastas and salads and every plate was left clean. I got the lobster ravioli it was delicious but the lobster didn't really taste like lobster it tasted like salmon. A pro if you're celebrating a birthday is they offer a dessert sampler with tiramisu and cannolis and fruit it was great for sharing with a big group! I would like to come back because the menu had a lot of great staple dishes that would want to try. read more

Tutti Pazzi - LOBSTER RAVIOLI - Italian Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Driving back from a game in Newark, we stopped at Tutti Pazzi for a date night. We sat upstairs and enjoyed the nice view of the downtown area. Our waitress told us that they offered new pasta flights where you could pick any 3 pastas from the menu, which was perfect for us because we were actually having a hard time deciding which one to get! All of their pasta is homemade, and we were impressed by the quality. All around a great meal, and the chocolate mousse was an excellent dessert! Attentive staff as well. We would definitely come back! read more

Highly recommend! Tutti Pazzi was fabulous! It's giving up scale dining with a cozy, modern vibe. The food was delish.. I'd go back just for eggplant tower MMHHMMM IT WAS SCRUMPTIOUS! read more

Tutti Pazzi - PENNE VODKA - Italian Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

We ordered from here late night through Grubhub, and while the food arrived hot and on time, that's about where the excitement ended. We ordered three Alfredo dishes -- Blackened Chicken, Shrimp, and Plain. Sadly, all three were bland, flavorless, and completely unseasoned. It was honestly surprising and disappointing. The chicken itself was good quality, and I did appreciate that the pasta wasn't drowning in sauce, but it desperately needed some seasoning or even a hint of flavor. They also sent plain white bread, which was... well, plain. No butter, no garlic, not even a sprinkle of salt -- just bread on a plate. Maybe it was an off night, but our first experience just didn't live up to expectations. With a few tweaks in flavor and presentation, this could have been much better, but for now, it missed the mark. read more

Went here for an early dinner with my sister, and we had a great experience! The servers were all very attentive and friendly, and we loved the food. We happened to visit during the Stamford Restaurant week, so we were able to try out some of their best dishes at a solid price. We also both had espresso martinis, which were strong and delicious! It was pretty empty, but we did grab dinner around 5PM on a weekday, which is likely why. I also overheard from another visitor that they have a happy hour, so we will definitely be revisiting in the future to check that out! read more

(This doesn't affect my rating at all, but just a heads up that this place is VERY cold during these sub-freezing temperatures, so dress accordingly. The front windows are drafty and their heaters can't keep up. We were freezing by the end of our meal.) That said....This place is fantastic. Very friendly, accommodating service. Discovered a really nice Malbec I hadn't had before and our friend was thrilled they have Sip O Sunshine on tap. Great drinks. The spicy shrimp soup app was a big hit, and perfect for such a cold day. It has just the right amount of kick. Also, greatly appreciated they have a ton of GF items, which makes it a good place for those who are GF. Getting right down to it, the food was fantastic. I had the filet medallions with mashed potatoes and a delicious brandy cream sauce. I inhaled it. Two of us got the gnocchi bolognese, which was also a hit. My wife had the pappardale with butternut squash and a sage cream sauce that was a perfect "winter" dish. And, yeah, the tiramisu for dessert is excellent. Like it's neighbor (and I think owned by the same people), Fish, this is another spot we will definitely come back to a lot. When it's warmer. :) read more

Not sure what to complement first.... The food or the service. Our table had the eggplant tower appetizer. The sauce was light, bright, red, chunky and delicious. I I struggled to decide what to order because everything sounded so delicious but I had the fettuccine mitty , and I am so glad that I did. The shrimp and scallops were perfectly cooked, tender, flavorful, and that sherry cream sauce was nice and light. Often times cream sauces are heavy, and this one was not. I'm already online looking at the menu deciding on what to have next time I go The service was attentive and quick without being overbearing When the runners brought our food out, they knew exactly who ordered which dish . One of my pet peeves when I'm dining out is having the food auctioned off because the runners don't know which dish to put in front of which customer. The team here clearly knows what they're doing. read more

Food is always great, attentive service and a nice atmosphere. Never pound or rushed.

Came downtown after work with my sister for Stamford's winter restaurant week. My server never introduced her name and I didn't feel like asking. Service was a bit slow but I didn't care, because I had time to kill. We tried the pork belly & brussels, artichoke flat bread, macadamia crusted chicken, and burrata ravioli in vodka sauce. My sister and always share our meals, so we can taste more items. The flat bread was soft on the bottom and middle, could have spent more time in the oven. The pork belly could have been crunchier on the skin too. One piece was just fat. I can tell the ravioli is not fresh, because it was served frozen in the middle. It was sent back to the kitchen and they brought it back with the plate super hot with no warning. The Parmesan cheese was not fresh, it was sprinkled with a spoon, wish we put it on top after the reheat. The chicken, mash, and broccoli was good. I ordered a chipotle margarita, it was not served in a margarita glass. It was a small narrow glass full with ice to the rim. I didn't wanna buy ice again, so I didn't order another. They gave us cannoli for the dessert, it wasn't bad but I had better. The taste wasn't bad but the filling felt too soft as if they "stretched" it: The individual bathrooms were spacious and clean. I feel like this place has so much potential so it hurts me to have to rate it 2 stars, but how you have to take a bitten ravioli back with poor service. So much competition in this city, not sure if I will come here again; it didn't feel like authentic Italian to me. read more

I needed a nice but quaint place to take a client to within walking distance of their office. I bypassed the reviews and gave this place a try. Nice selection of homemade pastas, entrees and really something for everyone. We all enjoyed our meals. My gnocchi was really good, definitely homemade, filling and the sauce was tasty. The dessert was the perfect end to the meal, really creamy and a good blend of flavors. I would definitely visit here again on my own! read more

The food is delicious and fresh. The pastas are cooked just right. The ambience is pleasant and relaxing for me. The "noise factor" (which often means excessively loud music)is not a problem here. I have been back many times and continue to enjoy consistent service and quality. Highly recommended. read more

Great service, the staff were friendly and attentive. We got the sautéd calamari as an appetizer and as long as you like a fishier taste then it will be palatable to you. I got the lobster ravioli and it was amazing. My wife got the gluten free 4 cheese tortellini and she loved it. Great quick dinner stop with great food as long as you can tolerate the occasional honk from the popular intersection out front. read more

Got food poisoning both times I ate here. It happened two years ago and just happened again. Do not recommend.

They have an extensive menu of apps, pizza, pasta, entrees, and more. For those seeking gluten free, they have five different pastas (nice to have a choice other than penne) pizza, and apps. The house warm bread with smooth olive oil is enjoyable to start the meal (not GF). I love seafood and pasta. So, I had the GF cavatelli pescatore and my husband had the regular linguine pescatore. They were hearty portions of pasta and a lot of seafood, mostly mussels. They have two floors with bars on both floors. The second floor is nice looking out onto downtown, the park, and theater. In the summer months, they have outdoor seating and allow dogs. read more

Having visited this restaurant many times since its transition from Quattro Pazzi, I realized I hadn't reviewed it. Fantastic any time of year, the centrally located downtown Stamford restaurant is especially lovely during outdoor dining season (May-October). Outdoor tables are affixed among plants giving it a European vibe and a good chance to people watch in arguably the best spot in downtown. Our server, Maria was attentive and knowledgeable explaining recent menu changes to us. She was warm and kind. We had the ceasar salad which can easily be shared along with warm bread. We had the lobster ravioli which now has a white sauce versus red and the Pappardelle Mushrooms. For dessert we had sorbet. As always, everything was top notch, and the wonderful food may have even gotten better with the recent menu changes. Highly recommended. read more

I had to go to a comedy club @9;30 pm but needed to meet my sister @7pm. I suggested we go out to dinner to kill time. She wanted to try out Tutti Pazzi.I overlooked the menu online before going & thought it was a great value & sounded delicious so I said yes. I called & made reservations for 7pm.It's winter week in Stamford which means certain restaurants have a special menu @ a discounted price. We had the dinner entree which consisted of an appetizer,entree,& dessert(chef's choice). Waitress was inattentive & let the bus boy do all her work. I didn't get her name b/c she never mentioned it or was friendly. Appetizers came out we ordered the pork belly w/ Brussel sprouts & artichoke flatbread (bread,ricotta,& artichoke). Flatbread/pork belly was soggy & not cooked long enough. Pork belly had a piece that was just fat no meat.We always order different things b/c we share. We love the variety to taste & get bored quick. For the entree she had the macadamia chicken that came w/ mashed potatoes & broccoli. I ordered the burrata ravioli (ravioli in pelle alla vodka sauce). Ravioli was frozen in the middle which means it's not fresh pasta. Also the chicken had weird taste to it. I was disappointed. I must say the Brussel sprouts in ginger orange sauce was so delicious. I posted a pic of the winter menu week which in this restaurant advertises until 3/10. Waitress never checked on us only after I told her our ravioli was cold which she proceeded & said we will warm it up for you.They basically put it in the microwave & the Parmesan cheese melted.btw the Parmesan cheese wasn't Even fresh. So many faults & I wanted to give this restaurant a chance. She didn't even tell us what the chef's special dessert was I had to ask. She said rudely mini cannolis. The cannolis came out they were tiny,dry & had a little bit of stuffing. The crust was hard & crunchy I thought I would lose a tooth. Inside decor was boring & cluttered. read more

I always walk by this restaurant and the food always smell really good. Today I actually stopped in to try it. We wasn't sure of the type of wine we wanted to order with our meal so the Waiter was very helpful in helping us narrow it down. The food was delicious, nicely plated and it was plentiful. From the wine to dessert nothing was lacking. The restaurant was following the CDC guidelines, wait staff wore their mask properly, hand sanitizer was available and the tables were 6ft apart. This is a great Italian restaurant to try when in Stamford. read more

I was here for a group event with a pre-written menu because of the size of the group. None of the entrees on the menu were vegan or vegetarian but they said they had options, and the only option was penne primavera. I'm very glad they offered it, but it was pretty tasteless: plain penne with some olive oil, garlic, and some shaved vegetables - no flavor whatsoever. Vegan food does not mean flavorless food - I'm so glad there was a plant-based option, but please make a point to offer options that include more flavor and spices so people enjoy them. The non-vegan dishes were full of color and looked flavorful and this dish was quite the opposite. I'd be happy to return if this dish improved and/or you offered more options. The staff was very attentive, knowledgeable, and very nice, and our food came relatively quickly for it being a large group. read more

So what happend to Quattro Pazzi which used to be here? Anyway, I liked it when there were "4", now that its "everyone" I'm thinking I like it even more.

This place was okay... I mean for an Italian joint, it was meh. I wasn't overwhelmed by the food, and the service was okay. The wait staff is definitely not friendly.... If I could suggest one thing, it would be to make the place a lot more cooler during the day instead of combating body heat and the heat outside upon request. There was random hair and dead flies on the mantle behind our seats that was pretty nasty so all in all... it was meh. read more

Unfortunately, I ordered the "Marco Polo" chicken with Cavatelli pasta, and within 1 hour I was sick with food poisoning symptoms, including a low grade fever. I was extremely sick during the night, and the very next day. My son and husband did not get sick, because they ordered pizza instead. Thank goodness I didn't share my meal with them! read more

Pricey, but the quality of the dishes more than made up for it and I will 100% be a repeat customer. Love the outdoor seating situation, as well as the fact that the tables were spread nice and far apart. Some places provide outdoor seating, but you're still sitting on top of the people near you. Broccoli Rabe: so tender to bite into, had great flavor without detracting from some of the bitterness to it, and it was a brilliant green. I would have eaten the entire side dish of it if we hadn't gotten it for my dad lol. Garlic bread: holy COW!!!! Literally the best garlic bread I've ever had in my life. They weren't stingy with the topping on it, and it had a nice, faint cheesiness to it as well that only added to the great garlic taste. This was a wham bam thank you ma'am in my mouth. Pasta: fresh, cooked perfectly, and the sauces were amazing. My mom got the ravioli and didn't stop eating to speak during the meal LOL. I got the penne alla vodka and the sauce definitely made it. Not super chunky. A nice well rounded creamy pasta. My dad got the fried calamari and he said it was a 10/10. Probably one of the best he's ever had in his life --which is saying something, since he loves getting the fried calamari whenever he can. Definitely worth checking out! 100% recommend. read more

This is a great place to go if you want to get food poisoning, and then have the manager attempt to convince you that it's actually not food poisoning, you've just suddenly developed lactose intolerance for the first time in your life. We reported this place to the department of health as well as the USDA. Management could have at least refunded the bill, since poisoning a customer is literally the worst thing that can happen for a restaurant, but they only refunded the dish that caused the poisoning, and continued to blame and gaslight the customer repeatedly. Really shocking behavior to be honest. Go here at your own risk. read more

One of my favorites! I come here frequently. I love the ambiance. The upstairs is my favorite. It's private, intimate, great view overlooking downtown. It's great for date night, casual, events, holidays. The food is always great. The margarita pizza I love: fresh, healthy. I request sprinkle of cheese, extra basil, very light oil. The crust is satiating, not thin, but not focaccia thick. I love the honeyed brussel sprouts, the buffalo cauliflower, and the salmon! All wonderful! I ask very light honey and oil on brussel sprouts. I've never liked brussel sprouts, but this converted me. The buffalo cauliflower with the contrast of blue dressing was devine. The salmon melts in your mouth, to die for, and I love all the vegetables with it! The light sauce was so smooth. read more

Underwhelming experience overall... mediocre food for unreasonable prices. Chicken piccata was average, would have expected it to come with more than spinach for $25. Staff was friendly and outdoor patio was nice. read more

I've been by this spot for years and it took a work engagement for me to go in and give it a try. This is one of those times you say it was may loss. I was so impressed, what a nice spot. The staff were great and the place itself was clean, warm and accommodating. For dinner there subgroup near me decided to share several items so we could taste a lot of items. The appetizers were really great and included the fried mozzarella balls, spicy shrimp (not too spicy,) calamari, and garlic bread. For dinner we shared the fig salad, the cacio e pepe spaghetti, the veal sorrentina and finally a Toscana pizza. Wow the food was great. The pizza was fresh and had a great crunchy crust. The salad was so fresh and light, the spaghetti was so good, I haven't ever had that with the pasta water and cheese sauce and finally I enjoyed the veal and eggplant dish, the presunto part of it was a little dry but overall the dish had great flavor. read more

Unfortunately I do not have any pictures as we came here for my cousins wedding celebration this past Saturday. The maître d'/manager, Dennis, was outstanding and very accommodating.
