This is our 3rd time dining at Exit 13. Perfection, as usual. Exit 13 has become our go to local restaurant. Authentic Italian gourmet selections that never disappoint. I’ve ordered something different every time. Branzino mouth watering and the sea bass melts in your mouth ! Can’t wait to try something new next visit
