Courtney Romann: Go to Nonna Mia, sit outside if the weather permits, and try the Divine Portabello appetizer and a glass of wine! Read more.
Lilly Calandrello: You must try their mango version of mimosa or refreshing lemonade that comes with a scoop of iced lemon sorbetto. Also the portobello pizza is by far one of the best pies I've ever had. Read more.
