Bringing tradition from Puglia to Kingsland
Puglia (in Latin ‘Apulia’) is a beautiful Southern region of Italy, and that’s where Cosimo (the owner) comes from.
All our dishes are made with fresh and high quality ingredients in order to give our customers an authentic and genuine Italian food experience.
Our lovely pasta is made from scratch in our kitchen every day.
We are also pleased to offer a wide range of fine Italian wines.
Welcome to Puglia!
Buon Appetito!
