We absolutely loved Siena! It was my 30th birthday, and we were able to get a seat overlooking the river. It was a beautiful ambiance! Our server was fantastic and really leaned into the birthday vibe. They comped several dishes, gave us free limoncello after the entrée, and they sang happy birthday at dessert. The restaurant was welcoming, there was amazing homemade pasta, and service was incredible. Very impressed!

We really had a very delicious meal... service was very attentive... I have been in this space many years ago prior to being Sienna... they should really work on the noise level... it is very loud... but overall - definitely going back.. would like to try the Stamford restaurant... This was highly recommended by my Hair Salon right in Stamford and we are very happy we tried it.. ! Hanger Steak yummy, the pasta with the truffle oil great.. and the pasta w/ the Rock shrimp also delicious...

The good was very good. Everything was tasty although some of the portions were but small. The waiter was friendly and attentive. The restaurant could use nicer decor for the prices being charged. It was a little underwhelming. The one sore spot was how slowly the food came out. Maybe it was and off and it looked like the head chef might have been late to work, but we waited a ridiculous amount of time to get our food and my sons order came out over 15 min after the rest of us - and it was pancakes! If those get fixed, it’s a top destination.

The owners of both Siena restaurants (Norwalk and Stamford) know what they are doing. They provide great menus, delicious quality food and drink. Their staff is professional, loyal and friendly. Siena in Norwalk is a beautiful restaurant and convenient on and off the 95 or Merritt. It’s decor is handsomely elegant with great views. The lively bar created a nice vibe. Great place to meet friends or clients for drinks or dinner!

Everything delicious. The Salmon was overcooked but they happily replaced it quickly with a medium rare as asked. Sides were all delicious and bartender Benjamin superb. Try the mushrooms with grits- really delicious. Also one of the better Tiramisu desserts that I've had outside of Italy.

It was a very busy Saturday night - the wait staff was nice enough, but you could tell everyone was new - they really need to get their act together. We had to ask about my husband's entree after the other 3 of us had been served. Tables in the back are too close together - big party of 8, then two tables of four right on top of each other. The ladies bathroom was disgusting - one toilet hadn't been flushed, the other one was clogged and there was no toilet paper in one of the stalls. The whole situation has plenty of room for improvement!
