What a fantastic dining experience! My family of four enjoyed an early dinner at Arthur and Sons. We were lucky enough to be seated upon arrival. We started with the fried mozzarella which was delicious. Next came the AMAZING bread and dipping sauce. We ordered rigatoni with vodka sauce, rigatoni with bolognese, the chicken Vesuvio, and my youngest enjoyed buttered pasta with a side of meatballs. The 1/2 plate of cannolis were the perfect way to end the already fantastic meal. The service was on point making the experience even more enjoyable. Arthur and Sons is a true gem! - Jennifer Welch
