The House

Not a chain. A real Italian kitchen in the middle of downtown.

Belini Cucina is a mom and pop Italian ristorante on Chillicothe Street. Exposed brick, dark wood, a full bar, and checked tablecloths on every table. Every appetizer comes with our homemade pasta sauce, and we make our own pizza dough.

Come in for a long lunch, a quiet date night, or a big family dinner. Reservations are welcome, and carryout is always an option. Just call ahead and we will have it ready.

Chicken and veal six ways, seafood from the Specialita di Mare, baked pastas al forno, and New York style cheesecake and cannoli to finish.
