Dario's - Village of Rockville Centre

Excellent Italian in a very competitive restaurant scence in Rockville Center. Been there for decades and it is a local gem. The food is awesome but I do not like that they do not give pasta with an entree but rather give mashed potatoes. Pasta can be ordered ala carte. A little silly if you ask me but those are the rules. They close promply at 9pm and last order taken is at 830pm so be aware of that. Excellent wine list. Amarone choices are great.

Classy restaurant, great food, veal Dario fantastic.

No sign posted anywhere that says they close for 2.5 hours from 2:30-5… waited for parking fed the meter only to have to find another place to eat, highly disappointing.Sign should be posted explaining the mid-day closure.

The restaurant had a good crowd especially for a Monday night. Ordered the Rigatoni Filetto di Pomodoro and it was delicious. I couldn’t finish the dish as we also ordered their onion soup and Cold Antipasto. I had the leftover pasta to go and it was still delicious the next day. I got the crème brûlée for dessert.
