Asian Restaurants in Connecticut – Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives

Asian Restaurants in Connecticut

When Guy Fieri brought his iconic red Camaro to the Constitution State, he uncovered a pair of Asian culinary gems that showcase Connecticut’s diverse food scene. From 2011 to 2023, the Mayor of Flavortown has featured two outstanding Asian establishments that continue to pack in crowds hungry for authentic flavors and bold cooking.

Leading the pack is Il Pastaficio in Greenwich, boasting an impressive 4.9-star rating that speaks to its exceptional quality and devoted following. Over in Bridgeport, Merritt Canteen Inc. holds its own with a solid 4.3-star rating, proving that great Asian cuisine can be found in unexpected places across the state.

With an average rating of 4.6 stars across both featured spots, Connecticut’s Triple D-approved Asian restaurants deliver the kind of from-scratch cooking and generous portions that earn Guy’s signature “Winner, winner, chicken dinner!” Both establishments remain open and thriving, ready to transport your taste buds on a flavorful journey through Asian cuisine—no passport required, just an empty stomach and an appetite for adventure.
