Best Pizzerias in Darien

Food and service both fantastic. Both at the bar and in the dining room.

Beautiful setting by the river, efficient service, delicous food.

The Malnati's salad and deep dish pizza are always delicious!

First bite was a showstopper. We ordered the spicy pepperoni pizze. It wasn’t spicy, if you’re concerned about spice level. It was delicious. The pizze dough was perfectly done. Just doughy to crispy ratio. We also ordered the chicken Parmesan which was a generous portion and also cooked perfectly. And the side of pasta was even thoughtfully prepared. Service was excellent. We sat at the bar and the bartenders were great.

Ate at Lucca’s on a very busy Valentine’s Day evening. Although the entire restaurant was bustling we still thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We started with a manhattan cocktail and a pomegranate margarita which were fine. After drinks we ordered the bruschetta appetizer and found it to be delicious. The finely chopped tomatoes made it light and tasty. For entrees we ordered the chicken calabrese which was surprisingly spicy but anticipated a spicier entree as it does have calabrese peppers. We also ordered a pizza that was 1/2 gringo loco and calabrese. A combination of two of their specialty pizzas. I enjoyed the calabrese pizza more. Overall our waitress was great, and even though it was busy, we were happy with our service. Definitely would patronize again in the future.
