My husband & I have spent many date nights at Va Bene. We love taking other couples, too, to introduce them to the delicious Italian food and quaint atmosphere. And we never miss an opportunity to sample the gelato bar!
We enjoyed a delightful meal from the pasta choice menu, sitting at a table overlooking Lake Superior. Good service and reasonable price. Salad special was beets with goat cheese - lovely.

My wife and I always have the best experience when we visit Va Bene. Get the #13 or the steak special!
