A Guest Favorite Since Day One
Our calamari is lightly battered and fried to a golden crisp, tender on the inside, never rubbery, never greasy. Served with house-made marinara built from San Marzano tomatoes. it is one of the most ordered appetizers on the menu and one of the dishes guests come back for again and again.
Perfect for sharing at the table before dinner. Order it with a glass of wine or a cocktail during happy hour. It is a go-to starter for date nights, family dinners, and groups of friends who want to kick off the evening the right way.
