Description:
- Opened in 1991, this establishment was renovated, doubling its capacity while adding a spacious dining room and a closed-in courtyard. Tables covered in white linen are romantically lit with votive candles, creating an authentic Italian cafe experience. Entrees are preceded by fried calamari with marinara sauce or Eggplant Cicero. Among the house specialties are theGrilled Shrimp Dabney or Chicken Stuffed with Italian Sausage. A fine selection of wines complements the Italian fare.
