Valario and his brothers welcomed our family of 18 into their lovely restaurant. We had discovered…read morethat this business was once the home of our grandparents and the birthplace of my father.
Valario welcomed us as family of 18 for a feast that was the highlight of our trip to Southern Italy.
They put together a special night of 10 delicious antipasto both cold and hot. Fantastic eggplant Parmesan, arancini, fried calamari, a seafood plate, zucchini and more. The main course was a choice of a seafood risotto or rigatoni bolognese and of course a pizza margarita. Plenty of great house wines, limoncello and tiramisu.
The food, the friendships and family made the night and the trip special.
This restaurant is much more than what we Americans think is a pizzeria. It is a hidden gem of a restaurant that also serves pizza.
I will return
