    If you’re looking for a place that feels like a warm hug in the form of food, this Italian gem is it! The staff was incredibly welcoming, treating us like old friends rather than just customers. Our server was attentive without being intrusive. We started with Fried Calamari which were perfectly cooked. Then my husband had a Bucatini with Shrimp and Mussels, our friends had the Bronzino, which I was told was fresh and very tasty and the Merluzzo Oreganata and lastly I had the Calamarata Bronte which was also excellent. We introduced our friends to Villagio Iccara and as we were having dinner they were so happy with everything, they indicated that they couldn't wait to bring their friends to Villagio Iccara.
