Since our last visit Typical Sicilian changed their layout - increasing the size of the bar at the expense of the dining area. This may have been the right choice for them, but it doesn't work for me. The bar was buzzing the Friday evening we were there. Many people were eating at the bar and folks were standing two... More

There are several good Italian restaurants in the Pioneer Valley. This one was great! We had heard about it for some time but this was our first visit. The artichoke Francaise appetizer was unique and savory. The linguine with fresh clams was generous and perfectly prepared. My husband's Bolognaise was excellent. They serve the salad dressings separately - a burgundy... More

The food here is by far some of the best italian food around, homemade sauces, fabulous menu selections and amazing waitstaff. the bartenders nate and stephania are great. Make sure you order something with their "typical sauce" on it you won't be disappointed!!

Typical Sicilian has really great, fresh food and excellent gluten free options. The portions are very large for the price so you get a lot for your money. The service was very good and there's a great atmosphere at this establishment. Definitely going back again!

I've written about this restaurant before and want to start by saying the food here is A-MAZING. I've occassionally had a dish that was a little too salty, but for the most part the menu, including desserts, is delicious and flavorful. I agree with those who say the service is not consistent, but I like the food well enough to... More

We're not frequent diners here as the slant is toward pasta and we typically avoid pasta (they do have dishes other than) but we've been here enough to state that the food always delivers but the service may or may not. Four of us dined on an early Friday (5:30) evening and it was close to full and the bar... More

We've been patronizing this great restaurant since they opened in their first place down the street. Looking back, we actually go there even more often now than when it first opened...its just that consisently good. When its too busy to wait for a table we sit at the bar and its just as enjoyable. This is the kind of place... More

9/25/12 Dinner Tuesday night, Colin our server was on his game. Fried Oysters with spinach and the "Typical Sauce" wow! The Whole Baked Fish tasted really nice, the flavors were there, should have been warned about the abundance of little bones (he did a nice touch of removing the spine). The Margarita was just off the wall, one of the... More
