    What an unexpected gem! We decided to give it a try as we spotted arancini on the menu (my hubby loves arancini). Those were delicious! The Italian wedding soup was great, my mother in law enjoyed her eggplant parmesan, and my husband’s chicken parm was outstanding. I had the chicken carbonara with fettucine - and it was hands down the best I have ever had. We all agreed this was the best Italian we’ve had in YEARS. I wish I lived closer - I’d be a regular here for sure - but I’ll have to settle for stopping by when I’m in the area. Thank you Little Italy for an outstanding visit!

    The service was great. The food was delicious. I had the Sea Scallops over risotto, so yummy. My husband had Shrimp FraDiavlo which was very good. We each had a salad with the house dressing along with some yummy bread. The Lemoncello cake was so light and airy. Everything was delicious. The owners are very friendly and will often ask how you are enjoying your meal. We love this place.
