This beloved spot has been serving up great food since 1997, thanks to the hard work of chef-owner Pietro Carcioppolo and his wife Antonella.

Known for its welcoming atmosphere and amazing food, Gabriella’s menu goes beyond the traditional Italian classics.

While you can still enjoy your favorite dishes like lasagna and spaghetti, the restaurant also features specials like lobster ravioli in a creamy pink sauce and portobello mushrooms in a rich garlic sauce.

Both sound fantastic.

What really sets Gabriella apart, though, is the experience.

Customers rave about the inviting atmosphere and the feeling that every meal is made with love and care.
