Cafe Silvium - Review - Stamford - Fairfield County - The Infatuation
This wouldn’t be a proper Connecticut restaurant guide without a quintessential red sauce Italian spot in the ranks. Cafe Silvium in Stamford has been serving up big portions of homemade pasta and even bigger wine pours for over 20 years, and the quality (and quantity) is still outstanding. It works for any occasion—a large family dinner, date, or a night out with friends, with warm service that’s likely to include a personal greeting from the owners upon walking in. Sit down and immediately order the milky homemade mozzarella while you complete the nearly impossible task of choosing a few dishes from the huge menu. The massive and crispy veal milanese should be on your table, as should the black linguine with scallops with marinara sauce, plus a few pastas that capture your heart. Skip the forgettable complimentary bread, and save room for the dense ricotta pistachio cake for dessert instead. - Chloe Zale
