"Real, honest Italian cuisine is in severe shortage in Worcester. Since we had left Waltham 8 years ago we had yet to find an Italian restaurant to satisfy our palates. Chiodas Trattoria came closer than any restaurant to do just that. From the outside the building is unassuming...almost hole-in-the-wall. Upon entering, the atmosphere was transformative...such a welcoming, authentic ambiance. The service was quick, genuine, and familial...as if being served by old friends. The food was homestyle, personal, and simply delicious....not over the top...just right. The desserts were tasty however there was a bit of flavour crossover from another like dessert that, while not completely off-putting, was a slight low point. The cappuccino at the end was magnificent...truly one of the best cappuccinos we had ever experienced. Overall, the culinary experience was one that we long to savour again and again. Thank you, Chiodas, for a memorable evening!"
