We stayed at a nearby hotel in Kenilworth prior to an international trip. We discovered this Family-owned Italian restaurant and made a reservation. We were very impressed with both the great service and delicious food. For the area, the prices were also very reasonable. When we are next in Kenilworth, we will return.
