WHO WE ARE
BENVENUTI
We are bringing some serious pasta eats to the Seacoast with a flair for creative Italian dishes using simple, local, seasonal ingredients found right here in northern New England. We take traditional dishes found all over Italy's 20 idiosyncratic regions, and recreate them with a slight twist brimming with authenticity. Grab a seat at our bar or choose a table alongside the river and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. Let our staff guide you along the evening with pairings from our 100% Italian wine list featuring wines not found anywhere else in the state. Perhaps a cocktail or local draft beer is more your style; or mix & match - we won't judge. Good food, good wine...it all works.
Just like the bounty of local resources found all around us from the fields to the sea, our friends, family and business connections in Italy provide us with amazing products that we carefully craft into our dishes to bring you back to your Nonna's kitchen table. Some of these products are for sale in our store front alongside our retail wines. We are conscientious about how we procure our products, and are considerate of the worldly affects our decisions have.
