They have some amazing and innovative dishes that you won’t find anywhere else like Clam Chowder Gnocchi (homemade gnocchi topped with a creamy clam sauce, crunch bacon bits, crispy shallots and a light celery salad garnish), Angels on Horseback (four sautéed colossal shrimp stuffed with horseradish and wrapped in bacon), and Scallop Risotto (creamy homemade risotto topped with three jumbo scallops, diced fried prosciutto crunches and finished with a fresh herb oil). They also have some classic favorites like lasagna, chicken parmigiana, and chicken riggies (which are my sister’s favorite dish)!
