Trattoria Lisina
Business Description
Products and Services offered
Small, family owned restaurants pepper the Italian countryside, each offering a unique take on the regional cuisine. Recipes unchanged for generations, wine flowing freely- these casual, rustic eateries are filled with energy, alive with the sounds of friends and family- sharing food and becoming more animated as the night and the wine progress. These restaurants truly represent the soul of Italy. A sincere love of family, friends, food and wine are the hallmarks of the trattoria. Damian & Trina Mandola bring these ideals to the Texas Hill Country with Trattoria Lisina. We invite you to join us in Driftwood for a taste of Italy right in your own backyard. Sit back, relax, enjoy.
