If you are looking for a simple yet sophisticated atmosphere and fabulous Italian food, then you have come to the right place. With light colored brick interior and surrounded with green plants with red flowers, an intimate tone is set. The clean cut brown and white accents reflect the classic and “earthy” cooking of Ristorante Italiano. This restaurant takes the “earthy” cooking methods of Tuscany and blends it with the techniques and tastes of the Northern Italian country side into a fabulous Italian concoction. With a splash of influence of Milanese, you have the best Italian cooking available all in one great spot.
The appetizers are traditional and bursting with flavor. There are appetizer favorites such as antipasto and shrimp cocktail, as well as specialty starters. We highly recommend the calamari fritti, which is deep fried calamari served with diced zucchini and served with marinara, and the funghi alfredo, which are baked mushroom caps stuffed with seasoned crab and drizzled with alfredo sauce. For your main entrée, there are a plethora of choices. The pizzas and salads are always a great choice. And, you can never go wrong with traditional Italian pasta dishes, such as pesto, Bolognese, pomodoro, cheese ravioli, lasagna, fettuccini alfredo, and more. There are also many house favorites and specialty pastas. If you love seafood, you will love the linguine del pescatore. It is a fabulous dish filled with scallops, shrimp, calamari, mussels that have been sautéed in olive oil, white wine, garlic, and fresh spices and then topped with Italian tomato sauce. Other favorites include the shrimp scampi, filetto gorgonzola (a broiled 8 oz filet that has been drizzled with a gorgonzola demi glaze), and their Australian lobster tail. There are many options for dishes with chicken, veal, and seafood, as well. For dessert, make sure you stay for dessert. They have amazing tiramisu, cannolis, and spumoni cake. |
