Went to Siena for a Monday lunch with friends. The food and service were wonderful and the room is bright and welcoming. However, the music was so loud that it was, at times, difficult to have a discussion. We asked for the music level to be lowered but it remained unreasonably loud.

Very pleasant time there. We have gone multiple times over this last year. The entire side of the restaurant in glass that open in the summer to the Norwalk River flowing 50 feet away. Now it is closed but still lovely setting. Wait staff was attentive, professional and knowledgeable and we were not rushed. It was a bit louder than a normal night but the food made up for any sound annoyance. House cocktails were imaginative and well prepared. Appitizers were good but didn't show the creativity of the entrees. The wild boar ragu entree was especially noteworthy as was the monk fish made in an "Rosso Bocco" slow cooked manner. Interesting, tasty and worth the trip. All in all, a strong recommendation for a lovely location for meeting friends or a date night.

The food was excellent and the view of the river is beautiful. The adjacent Hotel was full renovated this year but the. Restaurant wasn't and though the decor is nice, it is a bit worn, tired. I hope they will do some light renovations soon!

Back for the second time this week. That says something. The only knock is the noise level. No need for music; it just makes everyone try to talk over it. Otherwise, two thumbs up.

I don’t know if it was the allure of the fall leaves exploding with color, but dining in front of the open sliding glass windows on a gorgeous warm autumn day gave the impression of dining out in the CA countryside. The dining room, perched aside the river, is sleek and comfortable with a lovely service team. We enjoyed the prix fixe lunch choices, and our entire table felt this was a perfect afternoon. Nice job!

It was our first time there. Great atmosphere. The menu has great selections and the specials menu made it harder to make a selection since it had several great choices. A varied cocktail menu. Good wine selections. The service was excellent. A keeper for sure
