Jack & Giulio's Restaurant Review:


One of the few non-Mexican restaurants in Old Town, this family-run establishment has a loyal following for its authentic old-world Italian fare. Servers allow you to take your time, whether you order a multi-course meal or simply snack on antipasti with a glass of Chianti Classico. Feast on handmade pasta, tender gnocchi and briny cioppino while listening to Frank Sinatra and classic Italian love songs. Some of the dishes are 40-plus-year favorites. House specialties include tortelloni verdi, spinach pasta filled with ricotta and Parmesan, and the Nidi Di Rondine, a.k.a. Swallow’s Nest, a rolled pasta filled with ham, cheese and béchamel and topped with Bolognese sauce. Jack & Giulio's is most famous for the scampi Giulio, which has been served since 1961. On warm nights, enjoy alfresco dining on the patio.
