Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in East Norwalk

Really good food and service was great. Only two things I would change. 1. the lights in the back room were dim and keep flickering to mimic a candle. 2. when placing the order they ask for you’re whole order and we just wanted to start with the apps. But overall it was very flavorful and well plated food!! Will definitely be going again

I’ve been to Valbella many, many times and often for a holiday. This Christmas Eve was very unusual in my experience. Our table wasn’t ready when we came in. The bar and entranceway were packed and I thought we’d never be seated. We did wait 15 minutes but apologies all around. There must have been a problem because I’ve never experienced this. Once we sat down at the best table (in front of the fireplace), all went well. The waiter was fantastic: he didn’t rush us, had a sense of humor and acted like we were his only table. Everyone enjoyed their meals. A lovely way to spend Christmas Eve.

It was our first visit to La Vista. We will definitely return. The food was delicious and substantial. The service was outstanding. It was Christmas Eve and the restaurant was very well attended with a price fix menu. The selections were varied to satisfy any preference. It was crowded but the wait staff handled it without a hitch. They were amazing and actually made our evening pleasurable to the point of wanting to return. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Excellent salmon and swordfish. Delicious eggplant parm and chicken Marsala. Great pizza. Beautiful holiday decor.

Very good food and service, but the noise level is obscene, so enjoy the food in silence!
