    We were looking for somewhere to go for a last-minute family dinner, and found availability at Padrino‘s on OpenTable. This was our first visit, and I have to say it will not be our last. The food was delicious. The service was amazing, especially in today’s world where everyone is understaffed. Everything was prepared fresh served hot and absolutely delicious. We can’t wait to go back!

    We’ve always enjoyed Padrino’s. They offer an excellent value, great food and consistency that continuously shines through. The bread course comes out warm, crispy on top and soft in the middle with a good quality olive oil and garlic that has been reduced to candy. The sale is always fresh and it comes complimentary with your meal. The mussels (my choice) and the veal parm ( hubs fave) never disappoint. Service is attentive without feeling overbearing and there is ample time to socialize and enjoy your wine (byob) between courses.

    The ribeye was overcooked and somewhat tough and had to be returned. The fried gnocchi was pretty good in the gorgonzola sauce, and the pasta Fagiole and Cesar salad were both only ok. The service was fine, but the ambience was more like a pizza shop than a restaurant for dining.

    Great service. Cuisine was tasty. The veal ravioli and steak were delicious and well prepared. Salads were basic, Manhatten clam chowder tasted tinny so not a favorite. Cannoli nice size. Only negative is the wine delivery didn't happen today so no wine availability. Website stated wine was available so best to remove it and advise BYOB.

    Or dining groups swelled from 2 to 7 and we jumped into this Bistro and were pleasantly surprised. The food was good and the dinner selections enjoyed by all in attendance. It is a BYOB place, so plan ahead.

    My husband and I made reservations on a whim and cwe could not have been happier with our choice. The food was delicious and with generous portions. The calamari was out of this world! It was our first time at Padrino's but we will be going back for sure. High end cuisine with affordable prices!

    Best service at a restaurant possibly ever (Grace I think?). Met friends here. None of us had been before. Moved to Milford pre pandemic. It’s been on the list. We will be back to try other dishes and maybe carry out pizza next time we have a hankering. The marinara was amazing. I could eat it as a bowl of soup. The ranch dip was good so maybe a salad next time so I can drown it in ranch. TBD. Thank you!
