Not very many restaurants elicit superlatives from my wife & I. She grew up in the restaurant business and knows too much. However, the dining experience we had at Trattoria Delia was superb! From the friendly and appropriately attentive floor manager Kevin and waitress Sara to the quality of the food...this place is the best Italian in Burlington, maybe in... More

On a recent trip to Burlington we were trying to make up our mind where to go for dinner and happened to walk by the Trattoria. The menu sounded good so we went in. Lovely atmosphere and attentive wait staff. The food was terrific and they have an extensive wine list that complements the food. We will definitely have dinner... More

Three of us had dinner last night at Trattoria Delia in downtown Burlington - - another Trip Advisor find and a major home run. This is a wonderful restaurant, with a stimulating menu, an extensive Italian wine list with good, informed selections and some real age, attentive, smart, and invisible servers (many restaurants strive for this, but very few achieve...

Jerry W, Yours is one of our favorite reviews. We enjoy the enthusiasm with which you describe your dining experience. Especially the compliments on our food, wine, the service, and of course the bit about crawling over broken glass. We wouldn't want you to have to do that to enjoy our Osso Buco. All that you would need to do... More

My experience with Trattoria Delia was great from my phone call to make a reservation right through dessert. When I called to reserve a table I was asked if I would would like a cozy table in a nook by the fireplace. "Of course!" I said. Then she asked if I was celebrating anything and I said it was our...

It was a great experience. Everything was delicious. Make reservations early. We waited until the day before on a Saturday night and the only thing available was 8:45. Not too expensive but not cheap either. But worth it. I can't wait to go back.

Dear KDNICK, Thank you for taking time to review our restaurant. Happily, we had a table available for you on a Saturday night. As many of our frequent guests can tell you, reservations are highly suggested, especially on the weekends, or on nights when there is a show at The Flynn Theatre. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the food.... More

My wife and I had dinner at Trattoria Delia last evening. We started with a salad, and enjoyed wonderful homemade crusty bread with an excellent herb butter. For a main course I had Pasta alla Parmigiana which was just wonderful. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the homemade sauce was wonderful, and the veal meatball delicious and like none I have... More

Dear Hopsing NH, Thank you for your review! Glad to hear you enjoyed our homemade bread and herbed butter! Sorry to hear the spices in the meatballs were not your liking, but thank you for letting us know so we can adjust the amount of seasoning if need be. We hope to see you again when you are in Burlington.... More

This has been our favorite Burlington restaurant for many years, and it never disappoints us. Ok, let's start with the negatives first. This is not your local inexpensive family spaghetti house. If you're looking for that, go to Olive Garden. On the other hand, Yes, you should bring your family, behaved children are more than welcome at trattoria Delia. The... More
