Arturo's Tavern: 6% back

Arturo's Tavern has been an area favorite for more than 19 years, thanks in part to their delicious and authentic Italian cuisine and huge martinis. Serving up over-sized portions of traditional Italian specialties in their log cabin restaurant ensures that you never go hungry. And, with a diverse menu from which to choose, you'd better just plan on making this one of your regular dining out spots. Appetizers like the fresh mozzarella alla Arturo's, red or white mussels, and the eggplant rollatini are perfect ways to rev up your taste buds and get them ready for a hearty meal. At this eatery you can create-your-own-pasta (choose your noodle and your sauce), try specialty dishes like the chicken verbena with prosciutto and asparagus, enjoy fresh-from-the-water fish and seafood creations like the shrimp scampi oreganata, or sink your fork into hearty meats like the skirt steak alla Arturo's. Any of these meals are wonderful, especially when you consider the décor, which has a rustic cabin feel (with exposed beams and log walls) and comfortable, seating. Add in friendly service, and you've got a restaurant well worth frequenting. Also be sure to ask about any upcoming events which might include live music and prix fixe dinners, or stop by for their Happy Hour (weekdays from 4-6 p.m.). Weekly specials include Monday and Tuesday take-out specials, half-price martinis all night long on Thursdays, and kids eat free each Monday evening.
