Overall

Had an amazing venison dish one visit.
We have really enjoyed Papacelle as a nice local restaurant -

Everything was great.
The experience was terrific!

From creative and seasonally changing drinks to their wide-ranging and thoughtful menu featuring locally-grown food, everything is delicious here.
The restaurant is rather small and unfortunately it lacks ambiance.

that's because of my Outstanding dining experience the first time.
We highly recommend this gem of a restaurant that provides an authentic Italian dining experience!

This was our 4th visit and it didn't disappoint.
If you are looking for a nice place for a night out then this is one to try.

From creative and seasonally changing drinks to their wide-ranging and thoughtful menu featuring locally-grown food, everything is delicious here....The arugula salad with slivered almonds and truffled cheese was mouth-watering, and the home-made beef-filled ravioli with a buttery porcini sauce was outstanding....As far as we're concerned, this young chef can do no wrong!

The flavor is unbelievable!
