Located across the street from Jones Hall, Perbacco serves authentic Italian inspired by owner Vittorio Preteroti’s upbringing in Capri. White linens drape over every table, while the walls are painted in a calming shade of pale blue. Large, undressed picture windows allow natural light to flood inside.

The laid-back atmosphere complements the plates of delicious pasta and casseroles that Perbacco has to offer. The familiar menu allows patrons to experience traditional Italian dishes at their very best. Lasagna and eggplant parmigiana are popular among regular diners, as are the tortellini alla panna and the spaghetti marinara. Fresh seafood and chicken selections are another wonderful option at Perbacco, grilled and served with salad or over pasta.

The relax sophistication of Perbacco stimulates the mind and the senses, a wonderful way to enjoy the evening.
