    This was my first visit to Made In Italy and it won't be my last! I had the lollipop Lamb Chops and my dining companion had the pasta with lobster, plus we had Minestrone soup and the Zucchini Flower Blossoms. Everything was delicious and served hot! Olive Oil cake and Lemon cake for dessert. Service was great! It was a wonderful Easter dinner. I will definitely be back. C. Riz
