This ultra-romantic, two-story Italian restaurant, with candles and fresh flowers on white-linen-covered tables, is one of the Valley’s best places to go for tasty, fresh food. Owner/chef Michelina DiSibio has cultivated a loyal following for her comfy decor and beautifully plated, high-quality meals. Start your night out with a Napoli salad ($7.95) before trying some veal ($22.95) or stuffed pasta shells with spinach and ricotta ($17.95). Pair the food with one of the many wines offered at the quiet upstairs bar.
