A full-service Italian restaurant, dine-in bar and bakery-café offer three distinct experiences in this new project by Rich Labriola, one of biggest local names in the bakery business. Handmade pasta, thin-crust pizza, salumi and a rotating seasonal lasagna are hallmarks of executive chef John Caputo’s menu. Café choices include sandwiches, pastas, salads and freshly made baked goods. Subway tiles, dark wood and red leather create a slightly edgy, urban vibe in the 300-seat space.
