Chef Frank Bonanno dug into his Sicilian heritage and east coast roots to create this authentic, rustic Italian eatery. Luca has amazing personal touches from the daily made breads and pastas to the meats and cheeses cured in house, to the charcoal drawing of Bonanno’s son (and the restaurant’s namesake) that hangs in the dining room. Luca is heartwarming and satisfying from the wood-fired pizzas to the hand-rolled pastas to the perfectly seared proteins. It’s not your ordinary pile-of-pasta-and-sauce Italian joint; it’s the real (and tasty) deal.

What an A+ dining experience! Service was incredibly attentive (wiping down the table after each course, refilling water, etc.), and the food was amazing. Octopus, elk bolognese, pizza, tiramisu, they were all delicious. Jovanina’s is a wonderful restaurant!
