Weekday dine in dinner review: Very spacious (great for groups), plenty of parking, got seated right away, service was great (friendly & attentive), dishes came out fast and were large portions, the Bruschetta was so tasty, the Fettuccine Al Pollo was divine, the Angelo had way too many tomatoes and not enough garlic. Overall, great time and I would definitely return to try more of their dishes.

We got take out recently because of covid and it was extremely pricy for pasta, salad, and bread. The food was fine, not especially plentiful or attractively packaged, but a vegetarian pasta dish for $17 that does not even include bread or salad is very expensive!

Great place to stop by with friendly, prompt service and reasonable enough prices. The bread with garlic oil is solid and you get what you pay for. The fettuccine alfredo is well balanced—not too heavy but also not devoid of flavor—and the pesto salmon is a bit crowded with different ingredients but it works nicely.

I love Sarducci's. I love sitting by the river. It has a nice ambience. My only complaint is that food is too salty for me. But other than that, it's a good place to eat.

A homey oasis from chilly Vermont evenings, perfect for a casual night out. Set along the river in a quaint mountain town, Sarducci’s has a friendly waitstaff, cozy atmosphere, and classic Italian dishes.

Excellent and delicious!!!! This Italian restaurant in Montpelier, VT is a hidden gem. The staff was the sweetest and service was spectacular. My husband and I couldnt agree more, that it was the most delicious Italian we have ever had. Food quality was top notch.

Charming atmosphere. Great location and easy, free parking. The food was THE BEST Italian food I’ve ever had. The waitress was very knowledgeable of the menu and her recommendations were excellent. Highly recommend the chicken marsala with risotto. It was out of this world. Not a local but would definitely come back if in the area again!

I stopped by Montpelier, VT and found this hidden gem! The service and food is spectacular.. Let's start off with the bruschetta. The Parmesan was crisp and the pesto and tomato were juicy. The bread was well toasted and you can get a good bite on it. The Angelo® was delightful and flavorful indeed. I loved the sweetness and juiciness of the tasty sauce. The delicate angel hair pasta is so fresh along with the delectable tomatoes. Overall: 10/10 I highly recommend you stop by for a scrumptious, fantastic bite. P.S Server was very kind and I wouldn't change a thing!

Love this place since the first time eating their 9 years ago. I dropped my wallet in the parking lot and they returned to me with all the cash. Food is always great.

Been coming here since I was a little kid, and the quality has been consistent for literally my entire life. The fettuccini Alfredo is insanely creamy and flavorful, the wood-fired pizza (particularly the Quattro formaggi) is out of this world, the cocktails are on point, and the ambiance is classic. Never change, sarducci's!

AMAZING food!! Hands down the best calamari I've ever had and reason enough to give them a try. Top notch service, food is excellent quality and the selection is just perfect for any occasion. The only negative is it's a quite noisy environment. Something carpeting or sound absorbing panels would help alleviate. Can't wait to go again!

This place was extremely close to our hotel so we decided to give it a shot! We came on a Friday night and it was around a 30 minute wait. The food was delicious and worth the wait! We got the shrimp and bruschetta with mozzarella on it for appetizers. The shrimp was just okay, I think the cocktail sauce wasn't as great. But the bruschetta was delicious! I ordered the steak and my boyfriend got the fettuccini Alfredo del mare. They were delicious! The pasta sauce was extremely tasty and the sauce for the steak was amazing. I did asked for it to be cooked medium and it seemed to be a little

Love the food, delicious. The service was great. The seating by the river was beautiful. We were visiting from Washington State and this was a real gem. Thank you to all the service staff for making this a wonderful dinner.

There aren't a lot of choices around on a Monday night so this is good bet. Our service was quick and friendly and the food - lobster ravioli, salmon and mac n cheese were all very good. You do have to order the bread and garlic oil, but it's well worth the nominal cost. Desserts were also very good. There is a view of the river, but it's not particularly attractive so I wouldn't worry about having a view.

A great local restaurant! We have gone to Sarducci's many times for family gatherings, datenight, and to go meals. The staff is always so sweet and accommodating, and does a great job handling the amount of patrons! The pizza is always a go to, and my son loves their pastas, especially the alfredo.

Great food that was fresh and tasty. The artisan bread had a fine texture and delicious flavor. The wood roasted salmon on risotto was well done. Chicken piccata was melt in your mouth satisfying. Pulled pork Mac and cheese was awesome as was the spinach ravioli. Their small salad was anything but small. You will totally enjoy the experience of dining here.

Love this restaurant! Stopped by today during the food tasting festival and tried the shrimp beet salad which was delicious as is everything we've eaten here. We are from California but every time we come to Vermont we eat here. I'm hoping some day to get a peek at Bernie who eats here.

My husband and I were visiting our godson at Norwich University and decided to come here for a dinner celebration. We were not disappointed, the location was lovely we were seated right away, we ate outside right by the water, and our waitress was there within seconds to take our drink order and to ask if we wanted any appetizers. We went through the menu which is very extensive, and decided on three separate plates. Our meal arrived fairly quickly and it was fresh and hot and looked very appealing. To say that it did not disappoint would be an understatement! Each one of us was thoroughly pleased

Came here last night and although the entrees were mostly tasty, a lot of things seemed pretty overpriced. For example, the bruschetta was over $6 a plate for four pieces of basic sourdough with melted shredded mozzarella thrown on top with no real care. Good, but not worth the price. The restaurant was slammed, super busy, and extremely noisy- I could barely hear my cousin talking across the table. Chicken Parmesan was really salty and presentation was poor. Service was understandably slow but we had to wait at least 20 minutes after sitting down to even get menus. All in all not a bad experience

We tried this restaurant during our visit to Vermont and we definitely left happy. The food was delicious. We ordered chicken Parmesan, which was soooooo tasty. Pasta bolognese was delicious. And OMG the cheesecake was to die for!!! We ordered it twice. Definitively recommend what we ordered.

Average food. Terrible service.
Salad a bowl of lettuce with a large clump of balsamic dressing that tasted like bottled Catalina.
I had the piccata , potatoes were swimming in grease and my husband had chicken parm which he said was fine. Nothing special. We had to get our own salt and pepper, ask twice for drink refills, our food was waiting on a tray until we asked a busboy to deliver which he did. No water refills, had to ask for bread. There was a large family party but the place was empty and our waitress waited on them and ignored us. I know it's a small town but the place was apathetic

Have been coming to VT for years but never ate here.
The place was packed with no social distancing indoors. Surprising for VT as everyone outside unnecessarily wearing masks, but inside packed in.
Had 6:45pm resie. Newbie checking me in said 30 min wait and I said no aa I have a reservation. The next person handled it better.
After 20 min wait, got a tiny table that was one foot away from a table of 6 men. Couldn't hear myself think so hubby changed seats with me.
He had Cod-'very good'. I had chicken marsala which was tasty. Salad was just a bowl of lettuce with 2 tiny tomatoes

It was a nice restaurant, as there are very few restaurants in the area. I had the Caesar salad and salmon with pasta. We shared the bruschetta appetizer which was excellent. The portions are very large. The food was good. We closed it down at 8:30

I believe they could've done way better for $4.25, ever do dishes and accidentally get some of the dishwater in your mouth? Yeh thats the lemonade

The social distancing is 50/50
I'm glad it's open
Food was great
Great views
