Mamma D's Restaurant / Fratelli Desiato Vineyards

I ate dinner here with my family, not realizing they were going to have a nice tap list.

They had 16 beers on tap, all of which were quality craft beers, except for Blue Moon and Michelob. The rest were a mix of local breweries like Victory and Dogfish Head, and West Coast stuff like Firestone Walker and Rogue. Good mix of styles too. Being an Italian place, they have their own wine for those not drinking beer.

Food was great, high end Italian food, I had a fresh Caesar salad with house made croutons and anchovies. For dinner I had Veal Saltibocca which was excellent. Great deserts and espresso as well.

Server was nice and attentive, prices were a little high.

This is a restaurant located in a far-Northern suburban area, perhaps 40+ miles from the nearest large city, but it is a very cosmopolitan, diverse place. A sample of the draft selections from May of 2009 includes Red Hook Copperhook Pale Ale, Yards Philadelphia Pale Ale, Victory Whirling Wit, Shock Top Belgian White, Sly Fox O'Reilly's Irish Stout, Dogfish 60-minute IPA, and many other domestics and imports. They also make their own wine, and specialize in Italian food. We had a good meal and a great beer selection, and were well looked after.
