This is my cousin’s favorite Italian restaurant. I can see why. Pulcinella’s serves real Southern Italian Cuisine using homegrown herbs, fresh meats and vegetables, farro flour, healthy grains and homemade cheeses. The wood-burning oven certainly added to the quality of the meal, too.
The room was decorated with traditional red checkered tablecloths, garlands of grapes and mellow warm colored walls. Bill had Ravioli con Carne and was pleased with the selection. My choice was a special of the day, Pizzette. It had sundried tomatoes, and lots of Fontina Cheese. This was my first experience with that kind of cheese and I have now declared it my all time favorite cheese. Oh, was that good!
The service was excellent. I wish I could recommend the dessert menu, but we didn’t have room to try it. I would definitely return here.
