    This is truly a hidden gem in Ventnor, NJ We enjoyed the Rucola starter with the complimentary deliciously warmed loaf of bread served with olive oil dipping sauce. Entrees included the Spaghetti Al Gamberi and the Pollo Al Granchio. Both ample portions and magnificent. Dessert was their decadent chocolate cake which was a delicious way to end this great meal. We were able to bring our favorite wine to this BYOB restaurant which made the meal that much more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone for a great night out.
