Friendly staff, delicious eats, and a comfortable setting are all features of Tavolino.

Upon arrival, guests are served warm bread and olive oil and offered a glass of wine from the excellent wine menu. For starters, newcomers should try the Frittura Mista. The appetizer, which consists of lightly fried calamari, shrimp, zucchini, and eggplant, is served with a spicy tomato sauce and lemon wedges.

For a gold-medal finish, Tavolino offers an array of freshly made desserts. The chocolate gelato, served in a martini glass with a cookie, is rich, chocolaty deliciousness.
