Mamma mia!! What can I say?! We just learned that there’s a Little Italy in New Haven. We decided to try Consiglio’s based on the reviews. The food is absolutely delicious from the olive oil, the freshly baked bread and salads to the yummy lobster, shrimp, calamari and pastas, sauces all so fresh. The food reminded me of a cooking class we did in Rome, and cuisine from the Amalfi coast where the Consiglio family is originally from. The staff and ambience were also wonderful. If you are craving authentic Italian food, you must try this gem in New Haven. You’ll thank me later! :)

I was visiting from FL and I am so thankful that I ate dinner here while I was on my trip. We made a reservation before hand, so there was no wait. We also ate in the outside eating area that they had in the atmosphere was absolutely amazing. The waiter that we had was so accommodating and sweet. The food was so fresh and cooked to perfection everything is made in house, I ordered the penne a vodka and chicken and it was without a doubt the best I've ever had in my life and I ordered this a lot!! Love this place. Highly recommend. Hopefully I get to go back one day!! :)

As a person with a gluten intolerance Italian door is rarely something I partake in aside from caprese or salad. Consiglio's is not your typical Italian restaurant, they have somehow transformed authentic Italian food, I don't know how they managed to make a fresh gluten free pasta but they did. The atmosphere is clean, sophisticated and inviting. Our server was absolutely marvelous and gave impeccable recommendations. Our entire party was extremely happy.

I really liked Consiglio’s! it’s such a cozy and welcoming place. It was actually the first Italian restaurant I went to with my husband when we celebrated our 2-year wedding anniversary, so it holds a special memory for me. The atmosphere is lovely, and I’d definitely go back!

When visiting New Haven and you’re craving Italian food, I recommend making your way to Consiglio’s. The food is delicious and the cocktails are top notch too. The eggplant rollatini and fried calamari are my favorite options for antipasti. The last time I went I had the Chicken Piccata for my entree (photo attached). I’ve always had a great experience here.

Our family of four had a fantastic meal start to finish. We enjoyed the eggplant rollatini as an appetizer along with the freshly baked bread and balsamic olive oil dipping sauce. The side salads were refreshing. Each of us ordered a different pasta dish, and all of them were delicious! Our server was fine, but not exceptional. My only critique would be that the restaurant charges for every drink refill. We had sodas and iced tea, which ran us around $40.00. We are looking forward to dining outside when the weather turns a bit warmer.

This cozy, family-owned Italian restaurant instantly makes you feel at home. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the smell of garlic, fresh bread, and homemade sauce—it’s like stepping into someone’s kitchen in Italy.
The staff treats you like family, checking in just enough without hovering. You can tell every dish is made with love—my pasta came out perfectly cooked, and the sauce tasted so fresh and rich. The garlic knots were warm and buttery, and the tiramisu was the perfect sweet ending.
The atmosphere is calm and inviting—soft music, candlelight, and that classic Italian charm with checkered tablecloths and family photos on the wall. It’s the kind of place where you can come for date night, dinner with family, or even solo and still feel comfortable.
