Verona Ristorante Italiano (Italian)

Our monthly lunch with Karin and George brought us to Verona Ristorante Italiano, 141 Kings Highway East, Haddonfield, NJ 08033 (856-446-2126). We enjoyed a leisurely 3 1/2 hour lunch on Saturday, September 21, 2019, from the dinner menu, because that's what we do.  It was such a beautiful day!

We shared everything! Andrew was a fantastic server!

Bread with Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oil. The bread was crunchy outside, and tender inside. Warm and very good.


Calamari Frite - fried to perfection! The marinara sauce was very flavorful.


Gorgonzola Gnocchi - a little more dense than we're used to, but the gorgonzola sauce was addictive!


Penne Gamberi, penne pasta sautéed with peans and pancetta finished a vodka rose cream sauce - the dinner portion came with 4 large shrimp. Definitely worth ordering again.


Hot Italian Sausage Appetizer, with mixed mushrooms, shallots and lemon zest finished in a white wine sauce. Yum!


Veal Saltimbocca, veal sautéed with Prosciutto di Parma and sage finished in a red wine reduction - very good, but not sure we would order again, as we prefer either the Allora or Il Villaggio version. We selected roasted potatoes as a side.


Dessert was a nice ending to the meal. Cannoli with pistachio and creme brûlée, which was amazing!


Ken enjoyed a cup of coffee
