About:
While loyalists of this “quaint” time-honored Old Town Italian restaurant lament the passing of the late owner Franco Zalloni, most are confident that his widow Laura will preserve the quality of its delicious fare with classic flavors as well as its down home feel and informal service; it is not pretentious or overpriced, which is why it has been a favorite through the years.
