This delightful little eatery is named after a play on words of the Italian word "vitello" meaning veal, and "etonne'" which is French for "stunned," recalling the restaurant's specialty dish, vitello tonnato, which is a thin cut of veal with a tuna-mayo blend. The Vitel Etonne' also makes its own pasta in-house every day, and you can tell. The Bra sausage is taken to new heights when paired with their tajarin, while their spelt tagliatelle with fresh zucchini is like a gust of spring.
