“ A real feel of home Italian cooking. Service is exceptional and the restaurant is quite elegant with a cozy feeling. The food was prepared authentically and the taste of each meal was outstanding. ”
“ The restaurant had a good crowd especially for a Monday night. Ordered the Rigatoni Filetto di Pomodoro and it was delicious. I couldn’t finish the dish as we also ordered their onion soup and Cold Antipasto. I had the leftover pasta to go and it was still delicious the next day. I got the creme brulee for dessert. ”
“ Our most recent visit confirms my last review(see below). This dinner was excellent, it included the special app. rigatoni broccoli rabe, & sausage, and it was so delish. The classic "Dario Veal Chop" and/or the stuffed veal chop are both delicious, as was the chicken picola absolutely a must try! The wait service is top notch, and very professional. For example our water was filled without asking. I even watched the server shining each glass making them spotless. The table was cleared and cleaned between courses. Last Review 2yr/ago: Top shelf, excellent service, great, fresh meals, all done just right. Oh and "Fancy"... you must try! ”
“ Excellent Italian in a very competitive restaurant scence in Rockville Center. Been there for decades and it is a local gem. The food is awesome but I do not like that they do not give pasta with an entree but rather give mashed potatoes. Pasta can be ordered ala carte. A little silly if you ask me but those are the rules. They close promply at 9pm and last order taken is at 830pm so be aware of that. Excellent wine list. Amarone choices are great. ”
“ This was my first time at Dario's, and it lived up to everything I heard! I'm a huge Chicken Parmesan fan, and theirs is amazing, just perfect! Everything was nice. The service was on point, a real throwback and waiters in Tuxs. Everyone at the table was very pleased. Yes, they even have valet parking! ”
“ Great Italian food with warm and attentive service. The oyster mushroom appetizer was amazing. My pasta with shrimp and shataki mushrooms also nice. Wife had a nice salmon dish. Everything was tasty right down to the warm bread. Dessert continued the same great path with moist and light Tiramisu, exceptional tartuffo and delicious cappacino. A wonderful place to experience traditional Italian food with attentive service to match. We will be back again. ”
“ My fiance raved about this place so much I'm pretty sure she is on their payroll. Well, she was 120% right about Darios. It's classy yet not too classy. Service was quick but you never felt rushed. The food was incredible. The Balsamic portabello mushroom appetizer has us trying to figure out how to make it at home. It's a solid date night spot to enjoy some food and drink. ”
“ This place is fantastic! First class service and food make for a great dining experience. Ate at the bar with a friend and experience friendly and attentive service and great conversation. The food, well, the food- just delicious! If you’re ever in the RVC Village area, give this establishment a try. Happy dining! ”
