Friday and Saturday dinner could look a lot like this. 🍝✨ Our Spicy Sausage Diavolo brings the heat with rigatoni, spicy hot sausage, tender zucchini and squash from Schultz Valley Farms , all tossed in a rich fire roasted tomato sauce with ricotta. Finished with parmesan, micro greens, and served with garlic bread.

Looking for something a little lighter? We’re also featuring Lemon Dill Salmon with a bright, creamy lemon dill sauce, risotto, asparagus, and micro greens.

Grab a table, order a cocktail, and make dinner at Ale House part of your weekend plans. 🍻
