Rustic Southern Italian kitchen with strong influence from Tuscany. All professional staff with over 30 years experience."It is most certainly a gourmet establishment with a menu from top to bottom that is exquisitely creative with tastes and flavors and choices that make selections so joyously difficult--and with a wine list to match food and pocketbook. Consider this the now best Italian restaurant in the state. Three cheers for Biagio the chef.""Concealed jewel, but easily accessible off the parkway. Esteemed staff that goes about taking care of your every need, especially the maitre d'. Exceptional menu with meals that make you crave for more. The homemade pasta dishes are unequaled to any place in the state. This is an elite restaurant that I will entertain my family and my business clients at. Head chef will go above and beyond his means for satisfaction of customer."

    Can’t say enough about how good this restaurant is. From the minute we walked in the service was spot-on. It never stopped being perfectly attentive. Specialty drinks were creative and very good. We had the Pear Martini and Pear Mule. And then the food. We had the Braised Short Ribs and Pork Chop. Both over polenta and both excellent. We live in a neighboring state and can’t wait to come back. Next time we’re in Shelton we’ll be eating here!
