Ferraro’s Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar traveled throughout Italy this summer, offering diners a chance to enjoy the country’s best cuisine with its Summer Regional Menu Series. With summer nearing its end, Ferraro’s announces its final menu of the season from the Campania region. The four-course, prix-fixe menu is priced at $49 per person. Select bottles of wine, chosen by Ferraro’s sommelier to complement the featured menu, are offered at special values as well.
