STAMFORD, CT β LL Cool J, the Grammy Award-winning rapper, actor, author and entrepreneur, was seen dining in Stamford late last month.
The Queens, N.Y. native ate at The Americano, located at 261 Main St.
“When the legend himself pulls upβ¦ much love to the one and only @llcoolj for stopping by! It was truly an honor,” the restaurant posted on Instagram. Photos show LL Cool J with several staff members.
The Americano, which is owned by the same group that operates the Greek restaurant, Kouzina, opened in late 2023 where Black Bear Saloon and McFadden’s Saloon used to be.
“Modern American fare, thoughtfully curated by FoodFam Hospitalityβs founders and their award winning Americano team,” the restaurant’s website says. “Our expansive, elegantly designed space and refined menu is the ultimate expression of elevated dining in Stamford. Serving indulgent small bites, fresh seafood, prime USDA steaks, and savory fresh pasta, the overall approach to preparation is light, fresh and technique driven.”
The bar at The Americano features an innovative cocktail menu and wine list.
