PORTOBELLO STUFFED RAVIOLI IN HOMEMADE ROSÉ SAUCE ALL OF NUCCI’S DISHES ARE MADE TO ORDER IN-HOUSE WITH FRESH INGREDIENTS, AND NOTHING GOES TO WASTE.

Serving heartily portioned traditional Italian lunch in-house weekdays from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., while also offering takeout and catering, Nucci's expanded offerings are establishing the cozy 20-seat trattoria as a year-round destination. Nucci's serves specialty coffees, pastries, soups, salads, pasta, protein-based entrees, paninis and more. “My husband and I sat down and created our own menu. It was really important to us to invent our own ideas. We wanted something different and unique, old-school home recipes

that we grew up with, so that's what we did,” Maria says. “Pasta fagioli (pasta and bean soup), pasta piselli (pasta and pea soup) and pasta patata (pasta and potato soup) are all soups that we grew up with. The panini with the mortadella. The ‘poor man’s food’ has become huge. These are things that we are so proud to introduce to everyone.”
