Reviews for Cucina di Gerardo in Island Pond, VT
One of my favorite Italian restaurants in VT. Very authentic.
Freakin amazing! It?s our new favorite spot!
Arrived at 5 with a reservation as the first dine-in customers. We had to wait for an hour before even our salad was brought out... and sometime after that the pizza. All the while, numerous pick up customers were being served and overheard a new order beingtold it was only a half hour wait so it seemed pretty clear that they were putting new takeout orders in front of us.

Gerardo may be the finest Italian chef in New England, Boston, New Haven and Providence included. The pizza is supposed to be... great, but the opportunity for finer cuisine is not to be missed. Read more
My wife and I rented an air b and b for the weekend in Island pond and stumbled upon this place after a long drive. We loved it... so much we went back the next night. I am incredibly picky when it comes to italian food and everything was great! Also it wasthe small details that were so important like not prefilling the cannolis till we actually ordered them, or the fact that"gerado" drives to boston at least once a month to get all of his ingredients! Needless to say we will be back! Read more
The best pizza and Italian food you can eat without traveling to Italy. I have eaten here twice and both times the food was... great. First time I ordered a pepperoni pizza with peppers and onions. Absolutely delicious. No other pizza is like it in thearea. Second time my mother and I had dinner. She ordered eggplant parmesan with a Cesar salad.I ordered a chicken parmesancalzone with Mediterranean salad.This place makes amazing eggplant parmesan according to her. My mother is Italian and can neverfind a place in Vt that makes good eggplant parmesan from scratch. Mom's Cesar salad came with real fresh anchovies. Not justthe anchovi paste most places use. This was the real deal. My calzone was huuuuge and packed with delicious chicken. TheMediterranean salad came with loads of sun dried tomatoes and Olives and feta. This is officially my goto for Italianfood. Ran by a sweet little Italian family. Authenticity at its finest. Read more
