Our Story

In 2006, embracing their Italian culture, Mary Kay and Jim Berarducci founded VA BENE — fresh Italian food prepared with quality ingredients, to be enjoyed in a casual, comfortable atmosphere. Now in its 14th year, the restaurant is family owned and operated by two long-time managers. We remain committed to our mission of excellence.

All of our sauces, dressings, breads, gnocchi and our fabulous desserts are made on site from scratch. Everything is prepared to order.

With Va Bene, we have created a one of a kind experience — a restaurant devoted to Italian dishes served with hospitality at an accessible price. Looking through the street-side glass windows, one discovers a lively, inviting backdrop, hinting at the fresh, smart cuisine within. Creative indoor and outdoor dining areas offer beautiful ambiance and unbeatable views.

VA BENE is pronounced vah-ben-neh and means “it goes well.” It is an Italian sentiment that we take to heart every day as we strive to provide exceptional service to every guest.

Thank you for choosing Va Bene – where it always goes well!
