    Sally’s Apizza in Wethersfield is a gem! The pizza is absolutely top-notch—perfectly charred crust, fresh ingredients, and that classic New Haven flavor. The staff is friendly, the vibe is cozy, and it’s clear they’ve brought their A-game to this location. A must-try for any pizza lover in the area.

    The food and drinks are always amazing here! The Rosey Monkey drink special was fantastic. The Asian Pear Martini was also a hit! The Wellas Wings were so crispy and the chicken inside so tender, the flavor was that of something your Abuela would make, Sasson and Adobo delicious. The Blue NY Strip was so juicy and flavorful nice compliment to the steak was the thick cut bacon and blue cheese crumbles. Steaks were cooked to perfection, the side of roasted potatoes were crispy on the outside soft on the inside. Desserts you must try are the carrot cake or the Woodford Apple Crumble. Pure comfort on a cold night. The place is always packed on the weekends so be sure to book a reservation.

    The Bellinis are so good that we ordered doubles without hesitation! Our other fan favorites are … warm sourdough bread, wedge salad, bolognese, and lamb chops. We usually never leave room for dessert but we always leave happy. And Rafael was THE absolute nicest waiter!!! Dining at Brio was, once again, a Top 10 pick for us🥳!
