Fare Dish o’ the Month Chicken Marsala at Vito’s Ristorante By Kent Anderson Italian food is best served in an intimate setting, in a place that lets the cuisine shine without being noisy and boisterous. Vito’s Ristorante, a fairly new entry to the Italian food market in Oklahoma City, possesses just such a delightful atmosphere. The clientele ranges from couples enjoying a romantic dinner for two, to senior citizens, to families with children. Owner Cathy Cummings works the front of the house, seating every guest personally and checking in at least once during the meal. Chicken Marsala is a staple of most Italian restaurants, but rarely is it as flavorful as the offering at Vito’s. The chicken breasts are moist and tender, smothered in the marsala wine sauce with mushrooms. The presentation and flavor are enhanced by slivers of red and green peppers. Add sides of pasta and fresh vegetables, and you have an Italian meal that is made to savor. Look for Vito’s black door at 7521 N. May, just south of Grand Boulevard. Vito’s Ristorante is open for dinner only, Tuesday through Saturday. For information or reservations, call 848.4867. |
