    They need a better beer selection of local beers. Eggplant Parmesan was enjoyable. Pasta was cooked el dante. The Caesar salad was just ok. The garlic rolls are ok but heavily oiled and very garlicky making them difficult to eat. My favorite part of dinner was a wonderfully talented piano player. Lastly, it is a very loud restaurant.
    Scarpino's Classic ItalianResponded on November 2, 2024
    Ronald, thank you for dining with us and for sharing your love of our eggplant parm and the live music! With the music and a plethora of Friday night guests, yes, it may have been a bit louder than usual. We also appreciate the feedback re: local beer selection which we'll consider for the future. We look forward to welcoming you back for some more parm and music in the future! Scarpino's

    Food was excellent. However the Cheese Wheel was different but the end product was not cheesy enough and on the dry side. We like ours really gooey. The lasagna was outstanding! Will have again. Great mussels in a rich marinara. Old Fashion cocktail used a Maraschino cherry!!! A little loud environment though. We shall return.
