Encore by Goodfellas 702 State Street, New Haven, CT 06511

"I wish I could share details of the food, but we didn’t get that far. Had a reservation for 7:30, and were told our table would be ready in 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately, 45 minutes later, we were still not seated and were given no updates from the staff. We weren’t the only ones this happened to, as the line or people waiting on their tables grew longer and more frustrated. Ultimately, we walked out with no apologies from the staff. Don’t waste your time; choose from one of the other excellent restaurants in the area."

"The ‘Winter Prix Fixe’ four-course menu was incredible! So recommend the rigatoni vodka."

"It's a completely different dining experience compared to the original Goodfellas. For me personally, I like the original much better. Encore is beautiful inside but misses the mark on food. Very pricey too."

"We went here to listen to live music. The place is beautiful, the atmosphere, food, drinks and service was great. I jad the lobster ravioli, my fiance had chicken parm and we order fried mozzarella for appetizer. I am not big on red sauce from most places, their's was good. No complaints. Highly recommend."

"First time here but have always heard great things about goodfellas…They did not disappoint! Very nice place low key chill vibe, the live music gave dinner that nice touch of enjoyment while the food rolled out. Drinks came first, I Had a Smokey Mango my lady a Pomparade, well made drinks ! New York style calamari very fresh, I had the pork chops the wife had the chef special chicken dish. Pricey but worth it! We will be back for sure, Also we ate upstairs! Highly recommend so you can watch the live music"
