Gourmet Magazine
"Like in the movie The Big Night, everybody is clinking glasses of Chianti and having fun. Dark barn-board walls are decorated with celebrity photos. Passion and care arrives with every plate. A fine meal can be assembled just with the many appetizers but do not miss the entrees or desert. The DeVito brothers' exceptional entrees and deserts are inspired by regional home cooked specialties from all over Italy. These are the kind of dishes you might have eaten as a child if you had an Italian grandmother. An award winning wine list will accompany every meal, Antonio, Giancarlo, and Patricia will always be there to greet you. Buon Appetito".
Wine Spectator Award
Trattoria La Festa has been the recipient of the "Award of Excellence" from the Wine Spectator Magazine, consistently for many years. We have one of the "Most Outstanding Wine Lists in the World". We take many trips to Italy between April (Vino Italia Expo) and September (havest time) to insure only great vintages are picked. We painstakingly make sure to inventory the best all-Italian wine selection in Vermont. If you are new to wines or to Italy, let us introduce you to what we know best.
