About Colletta Cary
Colletta, meaning "collection" in Italian, is a family-style Italian restaurant located in Cary, North Carolina. Situated at Fenton, a vibrant development in Cary, Colletta offers a lively dining experience that combines traditional Italian cuisine with modern culinary techniques.
The restaurant's menu is guided by seasonal changes and a commitment to using locally sourced ingredients. Dishes are crafted from scratch, including house-made focaccia, pasta, and wood-fired pizzas.
Signature offerings include a 15-layer Lasagna Bolognese, featuring a blend of béchamel, Angus beef, whipped ricotta cheese, and basil. Other notable items are the Spicy Soppressata pizza, combining thinly sliced salami, San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, fresh basil, and a drizzle of local honey, and the Spumoni Semifreddo Alaska dessert, flambéed tableside for a dramatic presentation.
