If you have a hankering for a heaping plate of pasta and draft of Peroni, check out Coco's. You could say the restaurant business is in this family's blood. From Italy to New York to Nashville, four generations of Cinellis have been serving family recipes to hungry customers. Casual seating with a large patio and bocce ball court.
An on-site Italian market sells Coco's-branded products, including grandma's marinara sauce. Deli meats, gelato and other Italian food are available as well.
