| - Today, 9 of my friends and I had lunch at Fabio's fabulous restaurant! Most people who know me, know that I am a big supporter of locally owned restaurants, so when I heard about Fabio opening a restaurant in Peoria, I knew we had to try it!
It was fabulous! First, the bread is the best I have eaten. Fresh with a crunchy crust that had a good chew to it, as well. The inside, soft, yet substantial. I am pretty sure I ate half a loaf.
I ordered the Tagliatelle with Bolognese sauce. Excellent! Homemade pasta and sauce. I didn't order a salad, but the ones that people ordered looked delicious and were very generous in size. The pizzas are wood fired in the oven, which is the prominent feature of the restaurant interior. Everyone raved about their pizzas.
After the meal we had gelato and several of the desserts to pass around. The gelato is house made and so creamy and good. The different pastries sampled, were outstanding.
I plan to make this one of my regular places to dine. The inside is well appointed and it is perfect for a date night or lunch/dinner with friends.
