I've been dining at Molto's first location in Fairfield for years since I was in college, so I was excited to try their second location in Darien Commons! The restaurant is absolutely stunning and has the same menu we know and love. You can't go wrong with any of their homemade pasta dishes or pizza, and you could make a meal out of their appetizers, like Italian tapas style. The short rib was cooked perfectly in our risotto, and the bolognese sauce for my pasta was delicious. Fantastic drinks too. Servers were very attentive and food came out quickly. We went early on a Sunday afternoon and it was a wonderful experience.

Had an extraordinarily experience here at Molto for lunch. First new place in awhile that has been above expectations and really hit all aspects of making for a great experience. Friendly service, enjoyable atmosphere. Food was phenomenal, from appetizers to main courses. Octopus was cooked perfectly, great charred flavor and texture which many times can be cooked incorrectly. The potatoes, tomatoes, and cured meat was great as well especially with the dipping sauce. Short Rib Risotto was delicious! Not flavor I anticipated but not in a bad way. Really enjoyed it, could be a main course meal in itself. Black Past Fra Diavolo was delicious, good flavor, small hint of spice but definitely not overwhelming, could taste all the flavors. Sunday Gravy was amazing, huge/filling meal. All their pasta is also house made!

Great place to grab lunch or dinner! Very family friendly during lunch hours. The food is absolutely amazing and authentic. Pasta is handmade and you can really taste the difference. Pizza is scrumptious and a really nice shareable size. My personal favorite: the meatballs! I'm not even a big meatball person, but these are just too good! Definitely recommend the ravioli! I will say if you plan to go for dinner, MAKE A RESERVATION! This place is jumpingggg in the night lol.

First off Great Location came in with a few friends for a little celebration. Decided to sit at the bar was greeted by this beautiful angelic woman who was very welcoming patient with my group while we were taking a long time deciding our drinks and then main course. I believe her name was Delphine. She even pointed / suggested out some top sellers from the menu that myself I'll definitely will be back for because them dishes were amazing. From the pizza to the mozzarella sticks fried calamari. The Lobster Fettuccine , I almost ordered another to go it was that good . Asking to refill our drinks in a timely fashion. Service like that will always get you a great tip from me. My only complaint would be the Shrimp Cocktail either was over cooked or Frozen Shrimp, just not my Fancy. But everything else we had as a Collective. 4 outta 5 stars for food . And 5 stars for how our service the bartender took care of my group. Will be back this weekend

So happy to see the food options at Darien Commons. We finally had a chance to visit this restaurant. We were waiting on another couple so we had a drink at the bar. Good selections for wine and booze but limited on craft beer choices. Other reviewers are right - this place is LOUD. Please put in some panels on the ceiling. The place was packed so I'm glad we made a reservation. The service was very good. I had the orchiette pasta and it was outstanding - I highly recommend this dish. My tablemates had the veal and they enjoyed it. We split a few desserts and I had a sambuca served in a martini glass (weird?). I was tempted to try a pizza but maybe next time.

So excited for this grand opening of Molto! Walking into this restaurant there was an awesome chic vibe. The decor done by interior designer Robert Valle was exquisite. The beautiful bar being the focal point with a great crowd. Loved the separation of tables by all the lovely greenery. Well done !! Service was great and prompt. Food was very good. We tried a variety of tapas. Crispy artichokes, meatballs, antipasto, mussels, tuna tartare and burrata. All really good , mussels and meatballs being my fav ! Main dishes we shared the Chicken Scarp, orecchiette, and penne vodka. All shareable and tasty. Too stuffed for dessert so we will have to go back again. Great addition to Fairfield county.
