It was the desire to share our Sicilian heritage and Sicilian cuisine that prompted the family to buy an older neighborhood diner and create a new, warm, comfortable family ristoranté in Little Italy, “Café Gia Ristoranté.” We have strived very hard to recreate a Sicilian bistro, a place where one feels like they are in Sicily while dining. Buon appetito!

Squid ink pasta was a hit, as was the bolognese and bronzino. The meatball app was delicious. We loved our waitress who helped us pick out wines as - wow, their wine list is extensive/impressive.

Lovely evening, delicious food, overpriced (like all Atlas restaurants), but that was something we knew ahead of time! We were willing to spurge. BUT the live musician (a guy with his acoustic guitar) was truly terrible. Too loud, to start with, but worse, he could not sing!! His guitar work was quite competent and if he’d left it there, we could hav Randle’s the volume. But his voice is unpleasant and he managed to make every song (blues, rock, jazz, etc) sound exactly the same. It was painful to hear some favorites distorted. We were relieved when he took a break and they put on perfectly pleasant recorded background music at a reasonable volume.
