Another glimpse into the family archive 🤍

Pictured here are Maddalena, Mercurio, Mandy’s dad Calogero (“Chuck”), and his brother Mike celebrating at Aunt Gina’s wedding. These photos are more than memories—they’re a reminder of the family, traditions, and stories that continue to inspire everything we do today.

From one generation to the next, the table has always been where family comes together.

Enjoy the festival, support local, and we’ll see you for dinner!

One year. 🤍

Over the last 365 days, you’ve welcomed us into your celebrations, shared meals around our tables, and become part of our family. We couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate our first anniversary than doing what we love most—bringing people together for a special dinner.

So here’s a little hint...
We’re going whole hog. 🐖🔥

A one-night-only dinner featuring a curated menu and a celebration of the flavors, traditions, and community that got us here.

Seats will be limited. Details coming soon.
Stay hungry. 🍷✨

Golden, crisp, and straight out of Sicily ✨
Tonight’s app special: Cazzilli — Sicilian potato croquettes stuffed with scamorza, a smoked mozzarella-style cheese that melts into every bite.
Comfort food, the Italian way 🇮🇹

Vanilla Bean Panna cotta topped with our housemade strawberry compote — soft, silky, and just the right amount of sweet. 🍓

One of our favorite details in the dining room is our collection of mismatched china, all generously donated over time. Every plate, saucer, and dish has its own history, and together they help create the feeling of walking into Nonna’s kitchen for dinner.

No two settings are exactly alike, and we wouldn’t want them to be.

Tonight’s specials are bringing a little bit of everything to the table —
Fresh Chesapeake Bay soft shell crab, fried in a light beer batter with caper green garlic aioli & an herb salad 🦀
&
Rigatoni Alla Zozzona — spicy Italian sausage folded into a rich “dirty” tomato-carbonara sauce that’s as indulgent as it sounds 🍝
Come hungry.

Lunch is calling.
Prosciutto e Spianata — layered with prosciutto, calabrian salami, pickled peppers, arugula, mozzarella, and a red wine vinaigrette on our housemade panuozzo.

One more reason to make lunch plans with us this week.

Summer, 1954 🍎
David and Susan Hansford — Emily’s dad & aunt photographed at their great-uncle’s farm and apple orchard off Route 43 near Twin Lakes. David was 2½, Susan about 4½.
Years later, the property would become David’s own, and eventually the place where Emily grew up. One photograph & generations of family history.
From the family archive.
