Famoso Restaurant and Lounge is a second floor, white tablecloth restaurant, open for dinner only from 5:30 pm Monday through Saturday. The cuisine, created by renowned Chef Romina Lugaresi, is inspired by the Toscana Emilia-Romagna region of Italy and influenced by the famous Northern Italian, Pellegrino Artusi, author of “The Science and Art of Eating Well,” which boasts the second highest number of reprintings in Italy, second only to the Bible. Chef Romina Lugaresi presents a New Face of Italian Cuisine in a modern fashion, using traditional ingredients not often found today.

The atmosphere is modern, exciting and vibrant, yet inviting to casual dining.
