Italian Specialties
TESTIMONIAL
It's authentic Italian cuisine in a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere made with fresh quality ingredients. This husband and wife team Teresa and Rosario, greet their guests by offering delicious subtle but distinctly Italian flavors.
A favorite of mine is the unusually prepared calamari starter; served in a sumptuous homemade light tomato sauce, (not deep fried), served with wonderful (and generous) garlic bread. Teresa's lasagna is a favorite, prepared old world style, baked to perfection. They offer a great wine selection reasonably priced.
It's all good, it's all delicious, it's why we return again and again.
Excellent authentic Italian. The calamari is exquisite, the lasagna so reminds me of my Italian grandmothers delicious "made with love" recipe. All in all, we love cooking to this wonderful spot.
