Lenoci's Italian Kitchen — Restaurant in Wethersfield

We ordered an Italian combo, the Palermo, and some gnocchi, and all of them were delicious! When we were ordering at the counter, there seemed to be a little bit of disorganization when we were choosing our sandwich toppings, because the girl had to keep shouting back into the kitchen to ask if they had basic items. Overall though, it was a good experience and now that I know what to expect, I would return when I’m in the mood for a...
