This was a very great experience! Me and my fianceé truly enjoyed our experience at DiPalma's. We got the dinner for 2 special, which is such a great deal. It's perfect for a couple. The entree and pasta menu is open to you, along with a soup or salad, AND--get this--a bottle of wine 😯It was such a delight; we had a rosé. The service there was great, our waitress was very patient with our decision process; we took a lil bit. I had the chicken piccata. It was very good! It's came with a perfectly sized side bowl of pasta with sauce. The sauce was sweet, and the perfect compliment to the dish. My fianceé had penee with olive oil, chicken, and broccoli. This was a great size for her. She had half and took the rest home with her. She really liked this dish! She said it was light, and I tried it and the chicken had an extremely good flavor. Powerful! Afterwards, we decided on buying a dessert. We ended up getting the chocolate lava cake. This was the only shortcoming. The ice cream was a lil frozen; it was too "icey". It was quite hard as well. I imagine it was because of coronavirus (we went in September) that the ice cream could have been stored for a lil bit, which is understandable. The chocolate cake was delicious though! Very moist and not overly sweet or too rich. A lot of the time I have a hard time finishing this kind of dessert at other restaurants. I had no problem finishing it with my fianceé!
All in all, I would say this is a fantastic local restaurant in Southbury with a very nice, classy, yet relaxed atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this Italian restaurant.
