We wanted the best possible quality meat program, seafood towers overflowing with oysters, clams, shrimp, and mussels, and the kind of cocktails that are impossible to get sick of, all in a beautifully designed, unique space. And we wanted it not in New York – we want it right here in Shelton, CT. Enter Chaplin.

ONLINE ORDERING AVAILABLE - ilpalioct.comIl Palio was named after the race held each summer in Siena, Italy. Created with a passion, the restaurant has been exquisitely designed and beautifully finished with materials from all over the world. No stone was left unturned and time was not a factor in finding exactly what was required to make the "vision" a reality. The atmosphere created is one of quiet comfort in surroundings reminiscent of an Italian villa. The friendly and courteous staff, the outstanding food, and the efficient service all contribute to the ambiance felt by those who visit the restaurant. Il Palio's fine Tuscan cuisine is a pleasing combination of the highest-quality ingredients and the caring preparation by chefs who take pride in the dishes they present. Like the race in Siena, Il Palio is creating lasting impressions.

    Restaurants is beautiful, staff was attentive and food was really good. Music was way too loud and the staff could barely hear our order and it was tough to have conversation at the table

    I celebrated my birthday here. Overall it was good! Me and my friends enjoyed ourselves. Only thing I will say is that they told me that they are NOT selling hookah anymore. I was very upset because that was my main reason of why I decided to celebrate my birthday there. Few hours later I see a group get hookah brought out to them….
