Booked a reservation at 8 pm for a Valentine’s dinner. This was my first experience eating at this upscale Italian restaurant. Normally, I would write a lengthy and eloquent review of places I visit. However, I attenuated my expectations with the knowledge that it was peak hour on this Valentine’s evening. The atmosphere is warm and stylish. Needless to say, our reservation time was not honored. After 40-minute wait and a trip to the hostess, we finally made it to our table at 8:45.
The bartender, made a delicious martini and they even had stuffed blue cheese olives.
A word of advice, perhaps the management should consider serving this fine libation with a skewer. Fishing out the delectable olives with my fork seemed more like a trip to “Applebee’s” than a fine dining environment.
The bartender comped our drinks for the wait which helped take the edge off. Once making it to our table, we received a basket of bread which was rather uninspiring but the olive oil was enjoyable. We waited what seemed to be an eternity for our server to take our order. But all in all, the offerings were delicious, the wine selection is superb and the server was friendly and attentive. I’ll return on a less hectic occasion and hopefully have a better chance at being impressed.
Impeccable cuisine, outstanding service. A true 5 star experience! �
Thank you Nick & your talented staff for creating a special birthday celebration!
Truly superb! A night remember �
Excellent and attentive staff. Delicious food. Beautiful inner spaces. I would recommend sitting down in the wine cellar for more quiet and intimate dining. Our entire experience was fabulous!
You can never go wrong with this place, highly recommend it.
My absolute favorite restaurant! Food is always amazing and the service and staff are awesome. BTW....We had our wedding there which I highly recommend for anyone planning a small event.
We enjoyed a wonderful meal at this fabulous restaurant. They offer a wine cellar dining experience with a heated granite table. Chilean Sea Bass was incredible. Great company! Janet!

Valbella's is my favorite restaurant in the world. I have been going there since I was a child with my father, It's a place where you see celebrities but you don't talk to them. The people who go there aren't there for the Instagram picture they are there for the class the food the service the ambience. It is a pricey restaurant but you get what you pay for. I am surprised it is not Michelin star.
Perfect first time experience!!! It was for my grandmas 80th birthday for why my family and I came to Valbella. From the moment we dropped off our car the valet driver Tony was kind, charismatic and funny! Knew at the moment this place had good vibes. Then we arrive into the restaurant and all the lovely gentlemen serving my family and I were awesome! Ruben, Ralphie and many more who I unfortunately did not get their name were great as well. But these two made sure we were taken care of from food, drinks, honestly anything and everything. Great customer service, delicious food, great space, clean, modern and amazing staff what more can you ask for! Thank you Valbell staff for making our first time a great one on top of making our grandma’s 80th more special!
We heard about Valbella from a customer that lives in the area and they said was fantastic. Ok we went we saw, we ate, we loved. The outstanding part of this restaurant was the service. From the maitre d down to the bus people super friendly! The food was what to expect from an upscale Greenwich restaurant. Of course super high prices but delicious food. You get what you pay for. The seafood is very fresh and the desserts heavenly. All in all 5 stars! We will be back
The service was spectacular. The filet mignon and lobster tail was life-changing. Everything from the sparkling water to the tiramisu was next level. The cocktails were expertly made and each part of every course was handcrafted to delight!
One of the best Italian restaurants I've been too. Came here for my mother's birthday and everything was incredible from the food, to the service. Would definitely return and reccomend.
A local destination for special events. This restaurant is one of the locals choices for exquisite service and dining experiences.
Update: We are here enjoying the awesome food and service they provide here! Great restaurant for special meals & occasions!!!
The food is definitely above average pricing but they did such a good job with everything and the ingredients were so fresh, that it's worth the extra money. The oysters tasted like they were caught that day, the fish is fantastic, I decided to be adventurous and order gluten free pasta and NOTHING you can buy at a store will ever compare.
The staff were also very attentive and service was expedient, it also helps that the bar tender makes a swift Gatsby. I highly recommend this as an ideal "special occasion" restaurant in the area.
