    No doubt, one of the best fine dining Italian restaurants in the region. They will have an appetizer special and a couple of dinner specials. But you might want to order off the menu.

You'll find this gem of a restaurant on Barksdale Boulevard in Bossier City. Call now to get reservations or you will be left out in the cold!
