You want your birthday celebration to be more than just another dinner out. You want that moment when everyone stops talking because the food is that good. When the atmosphere makes everyone feel like they’re part of something special.
That’s exactly what happens here. Your guests will taste the difference in our authentic Abruzzese cuisine – dishes made with ingredients that actually matter, prepared by chefs who understand what real Italian cooking means. The kind of meal that has people asking where you found this place.
Our private dining space handles the details you don’t want to worry about. No fighting for the server’s attention. No wondering if there’s enough room for your group. Just you, your people, and food worth celebrating.
We’ve been serving Wakefield families since 2004, which means we’ve seen every type of birthday celebration you can imagine. The intimate dinners for two. The multi-generational gatherings that need space to spread out. The surprise parties that require perfect timing.
What makes us different isn’t just our award-winning Italian cuisine or our connection to the Abruzzo region of Italy. It’s that we actually understand what makes a celebration work. Our chefs come directly from Italy, bringing techniques you won’t find at your typical neighborhood spot.
Wakefield residents choose us because we’re close enough to feel convenient but special enough to make the occasion memorable. We’re the place locals recommend when someone asks where to go for something important.
Planning your birthday celebration starts with a conversation about what you actually want. Not what we think you should want – what works for your group, your budget, and your vision.
We’ll walk through our private dining options and help you choose the space that fits. Our upstairs area offers elegant chandeliers and large windows for a more formal feel. Downstairs, you get our newly renovated space with an expansive bar and more casual atmosphere.
Your menu gets customized based on what your group enjoys. Maybe that’s our signature pappardelle al tartufo with rare truffle mushrooms. Maybe it’s our lobster ravioli that has people talking months later. We’ll make sure dietary restrictions are handled without anyone feeling left out.
On the day of your celebration, our team handles the details. Your server knows your group is special and treats the evening accordingly. The timing works. The food arrives as it should. You get to actually enjoy your own party.

Your birthday party package includes our private dining room that comfortably accommodates your group without feeling cramped. You get dedicated service from staff who understand that celebrations require different attention than regular dining.
Our authentic Italian menu features dishes made from scratch daily, including our house-made pasta and bread. The wine selection includes both familiar favorites and Italian selections you won’t find elsewhere in Wakefield. For those who prefer cocktails, our full bar can handle any request.
Wakefield families particularly appreciate that we handle both intimate gatherings of 6-8 people and larger celebrations up to 40 guests. Our location offers convenient parking, which matters more than you might think when you’re coordinating multiple families arriving at the same time.
We also provide live saxophone entertainment on select evenings, adding that extra touch that makes your celebration feel truly special. The atmosphere balances elegance with warmth – sophisticated enough for milestone birthdays but comfortable enough that everyone relaxes and enjoys themselves.
We recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance for birthday celebrations, especially for weekend evenings and larger groups. Popular dates like Friday and Saturday nights fill up quickly, particularly during peak celebration months.
For milestone birthdays or parties during busy seasons (like graduation time or holiday periods), booking 4-6 weeks ahead ensures you get your preferred date and time. We do accept shorter-notice reservations when space allows, but advance planning gives you the best selection of our private dining options.
If you have flexibility with dates, weeknight celebrations often offer more availability and sometimes a more intimate atmosphere with our live saxophone entertainment.
We offer dedicated private dining space that can accommodate groups from 8 to 40 people, depending on your needs. Our upstairs area features an elegant atmosphere with chandeliers and large windows, perfect for more formal milestone celebrations.
Our downstairs space offers a newly renovated setting with access to our expansive bar area, ideal for parties that want a more relaxed, social atmosphere. Both spaces provide dedicated service and customized menu options.
For smaller, intimate birthday dinners (6-8 people), we can arrange semi-private seating in quieter sections of our main dining room. All private dining reservations include dedicated staff attention and the ability to customize timing and menu selections based on your celebration needs.
Absolutely. We regularly handle various dietary needs including gluten-free, vegetarian, and allergy considerations for birthday celebrations. Our kitchen prepares most dishes fresh to order, which gives us flexibility to modify recipes as needed.
When you book your party, we’ll discuss any dietary restrictions in detail. Our chefs can prepare gluten-free pasta dishes, create vegetarian versions of our popular entrees, and work around common food allergies. We take these requirements seriously because we want every guest to fully enjoy the celebration.
For complex dietary needs, we recommend discussing specifics when you make your reservation. This allows our kitchen team to plan ahead and ensure we have appropriate ingredients and preparation methods ready for your party date.
Our authentic connection to Italy sets us apart – our chefs come directly from the Abruzzo region, bringing traditional techniques and recipes you won’t find at typical local restaurants. We specialize in dishes like pappardelle al tartufo featuring rare truffle mushrooms, and our handmade pasta and bread are prepared fresh daily.
We’ve been serving Wakefield families for nearly two decades, so we understand what makes local celebrations special. Our private dining spaces are designed specifically for parties, not just regular tables pushed together. You get dedicated staff who focus solely on your group.
The atmosphere balances elegance with warmth – sophisticated enough for milestone birthdays but comfortable enough that families with different ages feel welcome. Plus, our live saxophone entertainment on select evenings adds a special touch that creates lasting memories for birthday celebrations.
We offer several excellent dessert options made in-house, including traditional Italian desserts like tiramisu and cannoli that pair beautifully with our cuisine. Many guests choose our desserts because they complement the authentic Italian meal experience.
If you prefer to bring your own birthday cake, we’re happy to accommodate that with advance notice. We’ll provide plates, utensils, and can coordinate the timing so the cake presentation happens at the perfect moment in your celebration.
Our staff can also help coordinate special touches like having our server present the dessert with a candle, or timing the dessert course to coincide with toasts or speeches. We want your birthday celebration to flow smoothly, so we work with whatever dessert approach works best for your group.
Our birthday party pricing varies based on group size, menu selections, and day of the week. We offer both prix fixe menu options for larger groups and individual ordering for smaller celebrations, giving you flexibility based on your budget and preferences.
Private dining room rental is complimentary with minimum food and beverage purchases, which vary by party size and timing. Weekend evening celebrations have different minimums than weeknight parties, and we can work with various budget ranges.
When you call to discuss your celebration, we’ll provide specific pricing based on your group size, preferred menu options, and date. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees, so you’ll know exactly what to expect before you commit to your reservation.
