CAMINATA

Caminata is the Italian spot you didn’t know you needed. This place serves up authentic cuisine, and it's got the kind of vibe that makes you feel like you’re at a family dinner back in Italy. The cannoli? Absolute fire, according to Luca, who knows a thing or two about Italian food. You’ll also get a warm welcome from the staff, who seem to have mastered the art of being friendly without being overbearing.

And let's not forget about the pizza and seafood pasta, which have received glowing reviews from Nik and mariachiara. Fresh ingredients and hearty portions mean you’re going to leave satisfied. Even if the gluten-free pizza was out of stock when April visited, she was impressed with the gluten-free pasta, which just shows they cater to the picky eaters among us. All in all, it’s a solid choice for anyone craving some good Italian fare without the pretentiousness. Just don’t go expecting to score a table on a Friday night without a reservation.
