Farm Italy is a very special restaurant that takes great care and pride in creating a terrific experience for diners. It was my birthday and my wife and i met two friends at the bar for drinks and then went to our table upstairs. The tables are spacious so we were not near any of the others. The service was excellent. And the food was absolutely scrumptious. I had the special - pasta with lobster and shrimp, and my wife had chicken Parmesan. We also shared the arugula salad with lemon and Parmesan, which was fresh as can be, and we ordered the homemade rolls which my wife says is a must every time we go there. finally for dessert, we had the basil – berry gelato which had an absolutely outrageous flavor. We both thought the meals were better than expected. Overall, highly recommended and will be dining there more frequently.
