If you're looking for a great tasting Italian dish that's just like home you found it!!. Look no further..we made a trip on 4/20/13..I had the Rigatoni Bolognese. I ordered it al dente..it was perfectly cooked, the best I've had since little Italy in NYC..we are proud Italians from CT. My husband had the veal parm which was awesome..We're surrounded... More

Great food, great service and they have gluten free options! I highly recommend the seafood with vodka sauce! I had it twice in 3 days!

Delicious and authentic Italian food. Numerous nightly specials to add to their already extensive menu. Great service. Huge portions (truly too much to eat....I always leave with a doggy bag).

We have dined at Varano's often and have never been disappointed-I just think that no restaurant is actually perfect--but they are close.

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary. Food, service and dessert were fabulous. I don't like chocolate, but my husband ordered a brownie sundae and it just melted in your mouth. The vanilla gelato was to die for. It was nice to eat to beautiful music that didn't make you want to pull your hair out.

Here is my only complaint of Varano's: they nickel and dime you. Ask for meat sauce and there is an up charge, ask for a different salad, up charge. I know you have to tell me, but it gets annoying sometimes! Food is very good, service is normally good and even with the "up charge hassle" if your looking for... More

Well hello...We have going to Angelins's since they opened. It was our favorite place here. They are closed for the month of March so we decided to visit Varano's. It was a wonderful experience. The service was wonderful, very gracious hosts, and the food was out of this world. Definately going back. Would recomend this place to all my friends... More
