Special experience dining here like always. Be careful not eat too much of their fresh hot bread. There are many options for both carnivores and herbivores. Make sure if you have a big group you alert them in advance. The owner is very involved with the daily operations and making sure all his customers are happy!

Arguably the best restaurant in Pittsfield. Wonderful and friendly staff, and delicious meticulously prepared food. It isn't cheap but it's worth the cost. The regular menu is great, but the specials are always to die for. Do yourself a favor and come here at least once. Be aware that they don't take credit cards though...

My parents introduced me to Elizabeth's many years ago and even though I don't live in the area, I try to steer the car to the restaurant whenever I'm passing through. It's a very tasty joy! For years, we always held my father's birthday parties at Elizabeth's. Tom and Liz always welcome us, even though, it's a very busy and exclusive place to dine. Its simple and unpretentious surroundings are a disguise for excellent meals. At this very moment, I am thinking of their unbelievable salads.

Restored home, now a quaint family Italian restaurant. Soup, appetizers, salad, entrees and desserts. Wonderful selection. The salad is soooo special. Each member of our party ordered difficult entrees. Each one was fabulous! Service is personal and helpful. Kitchen is open if you want to observe dinners being prepared. Reservations are requested as this is a restaurant with a great reputation. Casual atmosphere Relax and enjoy!

First time we ate here and we will return forever more! Fantastic fresh,farm to table veggies. Ample fresh salads so refreshing and surprised with some fruits. Chef/owner was booked but gave us a porch table and made sure we enjoyed our meal. Elizabeth's has been open 27 years and now we know why! We will keep going for 27 more.

Elizabeth’s is an experience! Tom is memorable and the tasty pastas and mixing bowl salad are crave-inducing. Call ahead for a reservation; tables can be tough to come by. The Sauvignon Blanc, Onion appetizer, Ken’s pasta and Lizzie’s delight were all amazing!

In one word - AWESOME!!! Don't be fooled & judge this restaurant solely on the building. Call ahead for reservations because they probably won't have a table for you if you don't reserve. The food is out of this world & the service is great! Your taste buds will experience an explosion of flavors. First timers will enjoy the owner's (also the chief) explanations of his dishes if his time permits. Money well, well spent.
