From the moment you enter Vinny Vanucchi's 'Little Italy' we'll welcome you with open arms and make you feel like part of the familia. From our made-from-scratch Italian cuisine featuring many recipes handed down five generations to our outstanding wine selection, we'll transport you to an authentic family trattoria complete with checkered tablecloths and imported artifacts and signs.
Located in Galena, Illinois, and perched halfway up a charming cobblestone street at
the intersection of Washington and Main streets, our Galena restaurant features 4 distinctive dining areas including a Bistro and an outdoor Cappuccino Garden. You’ll find Vinny’s ambiance is at once both casual and elegant.
We invite you to join us at Vinny Vanucchi's 'Little Italy' for authentic Italian dishes and a "Taste of the Old Neighborhood."
