The Caprese piadine, featuring fresh-stretched mozzarella, basil pesto, and oven-roasted tomatoes, has been a best-seller for nearly 20 years.
In addition to piadine, the restaurant offers a variety of pasta dishes with made-from-scratch sauces, house-made pizzas, and delectable desserts, all prepared daily.
