Fresh clams tossed with linguine in a white wine garlic sauce. Simple ingredients, made extraordinary by 35 years of tradition.
Breaded chicken breast smothered in homemade marinara and melted mozzarella, served with spaghetti. A family favorite since day one.
Arborio rice slow-cooked with clams, mussels, shrimp, and sautéed calamari in a cherry tomato broth. Our most photographed dish — and the one guests come back for.
End your evening with our housemade Tiramisu, lemon cake, or a scoop of authentic Italian gelato. Every kids meal includes ice cream.
