“An Italian Oasis nestled in a tiny corner of the American Heartland”
Sicilian-born Alessandro Pilumeli has brought a piece of that beautiful island
to Ashtabula! He shares his amazing talent of cooking with those lucky enough to
know about his little eatery. My wife, two sons and I enjoyed a Valentine's Day dinner
that was prepared and served by a chef and his staff who truly have a passion for
food and pleasing people. The veal, trout and pizza dishes were all outstanding!
Italian-style desserts and beverages perfectly complimented the meal. The restaurant
has the feel of an authentic Italian "trattoria". The minimal wait time we endured
was hardly an inconvenience but rather a testament to the quality of the establishment.
Bravo Alessandro and Tanya! -MarottaAC, Cleveland OH
“Italy Comes To Geneva, Saybrook And Ashtabula”
Authentic Italian, just like my grandmother and mother. Food comes off the
stove piping hot; you can see Alessandro cooking! Fresh baked bread and homemade
salad dressing--nothing fake! He hand picks vegetables, seafood and meats in season.
Even has a summer garden in the back. Portions are sized and priced just right, nice
wine list and wonderful servers. Be prepared to wait during season--but worth it.
BRAVO ALESSANDRO! -jogus4806, Youngstown OH
“The BEST Italian restaurant in Northeast Ohio”
Alessandro's Ristorante, about 4 miles East of Geneva on Rt 531 Lake Road
has the best dining experience, in my opinion, in the state of Ohio. It doesn't look
like much, only has a few tables and is known for some 20-40 minute waits on the
weekends but it is well worth it as the Italian born chef works alongside his family
to whip up fantastic daily specials, Italian favorites, and even delicious pizza.
Rumor has it that he keeps the restaurant small so he can handmake each dish........AND
IT SHOWS!!!! EXCELLENT! My family has a small place by the lake and going to Alessandro's
is our new lake tradition. –LuluTheTraveler Massillon OH
