I remember a Little Italy on Mesa Dr in Austin Tx about 20 years ago. They had the most delicious shrimp scampi I had ever tasted and it was not served over pasta. Also the ambiance was wonderful because there would be a man there playing the piano. The music he would play was very pleasant and soothing to your head. I miss that place a lot and wish they had never closed.

This place rocks! It's suitable for big parties or intimate dinners. The owner and staff members are warm, friendly and treat the guests like welcomed neighbors. Along with the food, the wine and dessert menu are to die for!

This restaraunt is a nice quiet getaway from the everyday rat race. Here you will find fine food at a reasonable price, and better than average service.
