About Us

A small casual bar on your right as you continue to the small dining room has a charming, old-world feel thanks to the red and green checkered tablecloths and flower rimmed dishes that adorn the tables. Homemade pastas, the Spinach and cheese raviolis w/pesto are the draw here, as the sausage and peppers, a variety of veal dishes and chicken Versuvio. The Crusty bread from D’Amato’s bakery is served warm. La Fontanella makes kids feel welcome too, with crayons, kiddie cocktails and child size portions of pastas.
