Be sure to start with one of their many scrumptious appetizer options! All of their appetizers are perfect for sharing around the table, which is one of the absolute best ways to start a great dinner conversation.

They have an awesome selection of pasta dishes, including my favorite, Cavatelli With Broccoli. If you love authentic Italian pasta dishes you have to be sure to try the Housemade Lasagna, Three Layers Filled With Meatballs, Sausage, Mozzarella, Ricotta, Parmesan, and Romano Cheese With Homemade Sauce or the House Special Seafood Pasta Linguini With Shrimp, Clams and Scallops, Served in a White based Clam Sauce, Alfredo Sauce or a Red based clam sauce.

Kyle and I headed out to Luigi’s on a warm Sunday evening. We were looking forward to an exceptionally great dinner and we were not disappointed! We were immediately seated in a cozy booth. We were greeted by our friendly servers, Rachel and Phyllis, also known as the A Team! We started our meal by munching on fresh Italian bread and butter. For our appetizers we decided on the Luigi’s Greens, Luigi’s extra special recipe of their Italian Greens and an order of the light and crunchy calamari served with a generous helping of homemade marinara. We were then served our fresh and delicious chef salads, probably the best looking chef salads in town! Kyle ordered the broiled scallops, a huge portion of large scallops, broiled to perfection, and served with a side of shells and sauce. He ate every single bite! For an entree I was really excited to order something that was a combination of some of my favorite Italian entrees, Chicken Parmigiana Layered with Eggplant and Riccotta. This dish was a perfect combination of the three amazing ingredients, perfectly combined and topped with sauce and mozzarella, the side of ziti with marinara made this dish exceptional. I am told that this particular entrée is a traditional family recipe. I can attest that it definitely is one of the best Italian dishes I have ever ordered!
