Luigi's Restaurant

As Old Saybrook’s longest-running family-owned restaurant, Luigi’s has been channeling the old country via multiple generations of original recipes since first opening its venerable doors in 1956. The menu runs the gamut from calamari and housemade ravioli to gargantuan portions of chicken parm and zuppa mista di pesce, but with imported olive oil, aged cheeses, and fresh ingredients prepared daily, it’s the pizza that really screams authenticity and goes down oh-so satisfyingly. Go with the aptly-titled Italian Flag, a white pie dotted with fresh-cut basil, ripe tomato, and creamy ricotta.
