Consiglio's Restaurant: A True Taste of Italy in the Heart of New Haven's Little Italy District Consiglio's Restaurant has been a staple of the Little Italy district in New Haven for over 80 years. Founded in 1938, this third-generation, family-owned establishment offers a romantic and comfortable atmosphere and uses old-world, family-inspired recipes to create delicious dishes.
Consiglio's menu is focused on delivering affordable, delectable food for guests to enjoy any day of the week. Start your meal with an appetizer like the cauliflower with truffle oil, eggplant rollatini, or the fried calamari. For the main course, indulge in popular dishes like the Lobster Ravioli, Homemade Cavatelli and Braciole, or their award-winning Lasagna, which recently took home the title of "Best Pasta in the State."

We live in Florida and travel to Connecticut each Thanksgiving. Dinner at Consiglio’s is an annual event and each time we dine there, it’s exceptional in every way. It’s our favorite Italian restaurant of all time.

Great food! We had the veal margarita and the lobster ravioli; both were delicious. The service was a bit off, had to remind them to get our drinks from the bar.

As many times I have been on Wooster Street I have never dined here. Great atmosphere, service, wine list, menu selection. Nice room available for private parties. Looking forward to dining once again here.

The food was outstanding. Our server was welcoming and worked hard to handle what seemed like most of the tables. Will definitely go back, especially also since they have a designated parking lot by busy Wooster Street.

Wonderful example of what an old fashioned Italian restaurant should be. Founded 1938, welcoming, friendly, everyone (and us) having a great time, great (no excellent) food, Very few modestly priced Italian restaurants are worth a special detour but this is definitely one
