You were managing just fine in an 800-square-foot, one-bedroom on the Upper East Side. Then a baby was added to the mix, and you realized you needed to get out of the city yesterday. Enter Fairfield County, Connecticut: the most populous county in the state, made up of over 35 cities and towns and boasting the unsexy yet practical combination of more space and a relatively easy commute to the city.
Now you’re winning the lifestyle game, but there’s a gaping hole in your heart that New York City restaurants used to fill. So we’ve compiled a list of the best places to eat in Fairfield County that’ll make you even happier that you took the plunge into the burbs, rather than sending you fleeing to the Metro-North every time you want a great meal. And if you’re looking for the best pizza in the state, head to New Haven.
