  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Neighbourhood gem
No. 246 offers “OG” red sauce, classic Italian – a reimagined direction that marks a new era for the Decatur gem, paying homage to the old-school, Italian dining scenes of yesteryear. From chefs Drew Belline and Ford Fry, the menu showcases the likes of spicy rigatoni vodka and a bowl of meatballs in gravy plus remixed, throwback to classics like calamari marinara, cheesy garlic bread, Nonna-approved pizzas and pastas and secondi crowd-pleasers like chicken al limone and shrimp scampi – plus classic cocktails and a carefully curated wine list of American and Italian standouts. For more information on our Chef's Counter, please visit our website.

    Server didn’t seem to be interested in serving us. When she would talk to us her attention always seemed elsewhere. The food was great as usual!

    Very good Italian food, much much better than middle-of-the-road Italian restaurants. Our server was excellent and as attentive as possible considering it was a very busy Saturday night. It was very loud and we will return but never on Friday/Saturday night.

    Decided to try this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. And I was not disappointed! Everything we tried was delicious and fresh. The meatballs, pizza, and cheese bread tasted great! I had the chicken parmigiana for my entree and it was also delicious! Also, ADD THE SIDE PASTA! My waitress even put a candle on my olive oil cake dessert and brought me out a free shot of their in-house orange liquor. They really made me feel special. I will be back!
