Luce is best IMHO. Although Cannoli’s at Illiano’s are the main reason I look forward to food in Middletown. (I kind of love eating at restaurants alone – habit from traveling all the time.) If you are really asking if any are good for dating, or meeting people then the answer is ‘none’. Middletown was devastated by the economic and political policies of the postwar era, and still cannot recover from the ‘slumification’ of the Great Society period – but because its’ far enough from Hartford, Meriden, New-haven, Bridgeport which are some of the poorest and most unpleasant parts of America, it has seen some revitalization as a bedroom community.
