Luigi's Restaurant

Where to start...I LOVE THIS PLACE! Anytime my boyfriend and I are driving through New England (we do a nearly 3 hour trip fairly often) we make a point to take a break from a long drive by stopping here for a romantic dinner. It's the best kind of restaurant. There are plenty of comfy booths so your chances of getting one are very high. The menu has so many options but all of them center around home-style Italian cooking and are made with love. The staff are so sweet and welcoming. They are also very thoughtful when it comes to Dietary issues, I am gluten free and they always make a point to accommodate my needs! My boyfriend is dairy free as well (we are a difficult combo we know!) I'm pretty sure this place is run by a family and it's just the best vibe inside. The locals seem to know the waitstaff and everyone is having a great time together. It's like walking into a family reunion but also very cozy and lovely. Just a great ambiance all around! I'll look forward to coming here again next time I'm passing through!

We dine at least once at Luigi's during our stay in Old Saybrook each year. The food is delucious and the service is friendly and efficient. Their outdoor patio is wonderful. I was happy to learn that they are able to accommodate my gluten-free needs.
