We had an excellent dinner at Arugula Ristorante! Our server was great, he suggested some menu items to try which were delicious. Our meals arrived timely, very hot and fresh. The portions were huge, we all ended up bringing leftovers home. Arugula Ristorante is a great little BYOB!

A great Mothers Day experience at Arugula. The special branzino stuffed with crab and red peppers was absolutely delicious. The veal chop was also very nice. Antonella, our server, did a great job as usual and Antonino, the owner, also makes sure everyone is taken care of.
