“ Authentic home made Italian food. Small friendly restaurant. Love it. Prices are fair. Dino the owner /chef is funny and nice to talk to. Makes a habit of coming out to tables and talking. Love this place. ”
“ I stopped here for the first time on a Thursday evening. I sat at the bar and felt very welcomed by the staff. I ordered a glass of Pinot noir and was pleasantly surprised by the generous full pour serving! And it was only 5.50! I ordered one of the specials for the night - which was chicken Marsala. Everything was done perfectly and from scratch! It tasted delicious! As if that wasn’t good enough, the dish comes with TWO chicken breasts! The serving size was extremely generous! I also had the privilege of talking to the owner. This man is a hard worker and truly cares about his customers. I think I found my new “go to” place! Do not drive by this fantastic restaurant. You will not be disappointed! ”
“ Enjoyed Sturinos. Extremely generous portions. My husband enjoyed the chicken Parmesan and I the gnocchi. We both had to-go containers to enjoy for a second meal. Wait staff is attentive and the business itself is quaint. Will return! ”
“ We ate dinner on a Saturday night. The variety of Entrees eaten in the Restaurant were very good. We also ordered Lasagne to go which is always a fantastic choice. Valerie was our server. She is very knowledgeable about the Drinks, Entrees and Soups. She was very courteous and attentive. We were not rushed and were given plenty of time to savor our meal. Thank you, Valerie.

“ First time going here. We met someone at WI State Fair that told us about the great food here, so me & my friend came last night & were definitely not disappointed!! Food was so good & the portions were so big, have leftovers for 2 more meals. Service was great too!! I had the lasagna, my friend had Chicken Parmesan & we both loved the food. The soup was really good too!! I definitely will go back!! I can only recommend 2 dishes because that's all we had had so far, but I'm sure everything is great. ”
“ Ordered the lake perch with the famous potato pancake on the side instead of fries which was delicious. The dinner came with soup or salad and I ordered the salad and came with fresh greens and dressing was house authentic vinegar and oil. Also ordered a side of meatballs with sauce because they make a very tasty sauce and the meatballs. Had a brandy old fashioned that was done right! The Italian music brings you back to a day and time and was great! Nice people, great staff, excellent food, and a cozy place with a nice deck outside. The owner name is Dino and he came out to talk to our group and check on us which was so nice and adds a personal touch! Everything was great! ”
