Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Shelton

A favorite whether it’s dinner for family, or appetizers and drinks with friends. Accommodating staff, great service.

Chef Margherita Aloi never disappoints. She is one of the few chefs in CT who provide that true Italian vibe. This is not an Italian American cuisine. Her choice of dishes and specials are like. O where Elise the servers are incredibly knowledgeable about everything she offers from cocktails. Desserts and specials. I had her ho,made pasta with filet mignon tips in a Marsala reduction with a sliver of parmigiana reggiano cheese. It was exceptional and made me feel like I was back in Italy. This is my all time favorite restaurant. From the moment you enter to being seated you are lifted to another place. I’ve been following Chef Aloi for more than 20 years. This is the real deal. Brava chef.

Xmas Eve 2024 3pm Was perfect. Exactly what we were looking for. Quiet, quaint, and great food. Service was amazing!!!

We had an amazing time at Dockside! We reserved the Candy Cane Lane igloo for our annual pre-Christmas outing. The igloo was so fun, themed so well, supplied with heaters and even a speaker so we could play our own music. Our waitress was absolutely amazing. She was kind, fun and made sure we were all having a great time. The food and drinks were amazing. Thank you so much for a wonderful time!

OUTSTANDING! What a wonderful surprise! Met my good friend for dinner - we were looking for a restaurant in Milford, half way for both of us: we discovered a hidden gem! We had tapas, sangria and dessert. Everything was delicious! The sangria was not the standard full of ice and a little bit of sangria: it was a full glass, nice and cold, with fresh fruit at the bottom. The service was also exceptional. I’ve been telling all my friends and will definitely be back.
