Excellent Italian food/atmosphere! Loved the Parmesan asparagus app, Caesar salad , shrimp/crab spaghetti special and the tortellini entree. The Neapolitan dessert was a nice finish! Fabulous dinner

Napoleon ($7) flaky pastry , cool vanilla custard & whipped cream form a powdered-sugar-covered cloud (usually gone by 8pm on busy nights, so ask waiter to reserve it when you place your order)

The best Italian in Virginia Beach! Their focaccia bread is amazing and their red pepper infused olive oil makes it even better.
