    Food and service was amazing. Frankie the server, Jeff the sommelier and Jill the manager all were really lovely and took care of us. Food is some of the best I have had in forever in Westport. Lamb belly, halloumi, calamari and lamb chops were all killer.

    Three of us had lunch at Molto's on a rainy Monday at 11:30. We had been unaware that there was a three-course fixed price lunch menu, so we decided to try it. We had the choice of soup or salad to begin. Two of us had the day's soup, egg drop and spinach soup which was delicious. One had the lovely salad which was large enough for a light lunch. Our entrees arrived, penne primavera and eggplant parmesan. Each was wonderful, and we all took home leftovers. Finally, the three dessert choices were terrific: vanilla gelato, chocolate gelato, and a very large chocolate covered cannoli. The waitress was excellent, as well. We will return for lunch, for sure.
