Wilton Restaurant Among Connecticut Magazine's 'Best'

WILTON, CT — Three Wilton restaurants have been named among the state's best for 2022 in Connecticut Magazine's annual Best Restaurants survey.

The magazine liked Aranci 67 on Old Ridgefield for its Italia cuisine, and the family dining at Heibeck's Stand on Danbury Road. Both won "Expert's Picks" in their categories.

But the editors at Connecticut Magazine fell all over themselves in their praise of Little Pub. Along with its sister eateries in Fairfield, Greenwich and Stratford, Little Pub was named as the top traditional American restaurant and lunch spot in Fairfield County. In the categories of family dining and beer selection, Little Pub won "best of" in Fairfield, and statewide runner-up honors.

Dozens of restaurants throughout the state were selected for the popular magazine's 2022 best-of list, with both readers and a group of experts choosing their favorites in a plethora of categories:

"Our annual Readers’ Choice restaurant survey was conducted online during September and October 2021; voters were able to choose up to three restaurants in order of preference (with the votes weighted accordingly) in each category," the magazine wrote. "Restaurants were limited to a maximum of four Readers’ Choice wins in the categories in which they received the most votes. After that, awards in further categories went to the next qualifying restaurant. Our panel of experts then recommended additional places in each category which they believe deserve recognition."
