VITO'S ITALIAN RESTAURANT – Italian
Dinner only, Tuesday through Sunday, from a Bartram Oaks storefront that gives no hint of what's inside. Vito's has been cooking Italian-American in St. Johns County since 1984, and Chef Giulio Teresi still brings Palermo habits to the plate — and himself out to the tables. The menu is the canon done properly: chicken and veal parmigiana over spaghetti, chicken scarparello, saltimbocca and francese, spaghetti carbonara, baked cheese ravioli, shrimp alla rosa, sausage and peppers. Guests single out the tiramisu and a wine list deeper than the room suggests. Book ahead; it fills, and the hospitality is the point.
