Reviews for Avellino in Fiskdale, MA
Food was great and we had excellent service. There was a large, loud rehearsal party next to us in a separate room but not much... they can do about that. Read more
I don't know why everyone likes this place so much. We went here based on the reviews online. The service was slow. The food was... all overcooked and tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for an hour. Everything was extremely overpriced andunderwhelming. The place was incredibly loud and would benefit a lot from some sort of sound deadening (there is some, but it'scompletely ineffective). The only reason it got two stars was that dessert was good. Will never go back again. Read more
The dining room was really nice, but that's the best part of our experience. Calamari was not cooked well and half of it was... little pea sized fried crumbs. With such a short menu, one would expect a focus on excellent food, but the entrees were bland. We were looking forward to our first time there, but were sorely disappointed. Enough so that we will not give it a secondshot. Read more
Recently hosted my sister's bridal shower here and it was the PERFECT spot. The food was delicious, the room was beautiful, and... the service was outstanding. They were transparent from the start with pricing/options and all of my emails were answeredquickly. On the day of, I was able to relax and enjoy the celebration because the staff was fantastic in handling the detailsand timing. Can't wait to come back and try out the dinner menu! Read more
Delicious dinner for four. Excellent service, lovely ambiance, beautiful colonial building and interior decor, good value.
Very good chicken marsala and lamb last night. Old world decor, and quite pleasant. Small dining rooms. Very kind waitress.... Very good value. Read more
Avellino- Sturbridge, Massachusetts- 9/21/2017 As you drive up, a stately white building faces the road with tall white... columns, ornate trim and an inviting driveway. That’s the front of the restaurant. Drive around back to enter. You’ll walkthru the downstairs bar to get to the main Dining Room up front. Once inside, dark brown wooden tables and chairs with brownpaper place settings. A farm table work station sits center room housing glasses, water, pepper grinders and the like… Allthis sits on wood plank tile. Mural style wallpaper covers two walls and lots of old wood trim. Dimly lit lighting adds to theambiance.. The restaurant has a very warm feel to it. Would you believe they actually bake their own bread daily? Most, if notclose to all other restaurants bring it in par-baked from commercial bakeries. Served room temperature with herb’d EVOO... Notbad. The photograph really doesn’t do it justice. Tonight starts off with the Shrimp Scampi Bruschetta… Fresh Mozzarella,Prosciutto,, Rustic Sourdough, EVVO with a Balsamic Glaze… Flavorful and light. Just the perfect starter. As I contemplatedmy next course my eyes land on the Slow Roasted Pork Shank served with Root Vegetables of Acorn Squash, Potatoes and Jicama,Tomato, Mushrooms, Demi-glacé, Creamy Polenta, Braised locally sourced Spinach all in a Tomato base rich Brown Sauce… This isa large dish so don’t fill up on bread prior. It was delicious! Although thee were many wonderful dessert choices, I opted tobe good and just have my signature Cappuccino with a single piece of Biscotti… I had a great time and my guess is…, youwill too. And when you come here, don’t forget to tell them Paul sent you… #Yummy #Food Read more
Hands down one of the best Italian meals I’ve ever had. Atmosphere and service was great. We will be back
