Reviews for Papa Joe's Ristorante Italiano in Darien, CT

First timer here. Went in for late dinner and didn't disappoint! I had great time. Great food and service!!

Local favorite for many many years. Either sit down traditional Italian or bring home one of your favorites from the takeout... area next door. I enjoyed some delicious chicken parm for dinner one night. Chicken cooked perfectly and delicious homemadesauce to sop up with home made bread. Don?t mess around and head in over! Read more

Had a bite to eat while I sat at the bar a few weeks ago. The pork chops were out of this world, soooo good! Every meal I've... ever had here has been excellent, and the pizza is good too!! Service is 5 star as well, staff is friendly and attentive, alwaysa great experience. Read more

(Some backstory): My family and I stopped by Papa Joe's for a bite to eat. We're out of town visitors and had our 27 ft long... trailer with us. We had our 95 year old disabled [great] grandmother along for our trip so we had to find the closest parkingspot (by the cobbler shop next door, MIND YOU FOR AN HOUR UNTIL THEY OPENED) so she could access the building with her walker.She was following behind us at slow pace, so my other grandmother went inside. (You could visibly see my great mother frominside of the building trying to make her way.) My grandma was approached and asked by our hostess to move our truck and trailerall away across the street. She tried to explain that my great grandma wouldn't be able to access the building, as it would betoo far for her to walk. Instead of understanding, she started making us feel guilty about where we parked, how customers were"canceling reservations" because of where we parked, granted WE ARE ALSO CUSTOMERS... The hostess was very condescendingtowards me and my family, especially towards my great grandmother. Not good customer service (and kinda ablest to behonest...). Other than the rude customer service, our waitress was very nice and our food was good. That's why this is rated2/10. Glad to say that we won't be stopping here again. ???? Read more

Excellent food at a reasonable price. This is a local restaurant that has steadily upped its game over the past few years. ... Their pasta dishes and the osso bucco are highly recommended. Read more

The owners and staff of this place are grea and it's probably the best authentic, REAL Italian food in the area. Pasta is... homemade and the beet salad is out of this world. Anything you order from here, you can't go wrong. Eat up and enjoy! Read more

If you?re looking for a good pizza, this is the place. I?ve been going here since I was a kid. And the pizza gets better every... time. I?m a huge fan and I?ll always be loyal to Papa Joe?s! Read more

We have had many meals here and catered family events. Always delicious food, freshly prepared, and great service! Below is... Rigatoni Nonna, with 2 large meatballs, 2 Italian sausages, pork ribs and beef short ribs-generous serving with leftovers! Read more
