Attilio's Tavern
Authentic Italian Cuisine, Great Steaks & an Awesome Nightclub in Dover, New Jersey
Attilio's Tavern offers authentic Italian home-cooking at its finest. We believe that real Italian cooking is about more than just the food it is about the experience. Attilio Benaquista, the namesake behind Attilio's Tavern had an unending enthusiasm for cooking and used his skills in the kitchen to bring the people he loved together for a special meal.
In addition to his passion for food and his talent in the kitchen, Attilio had an incredible ear for music. After dinner, as was customary in many Italian households, everyone would gather around Attilio and his guitar to sing Italian songs while sipping on a cocktail or a glass of wine.
As a tribute to Attilio Benequista we are proud to offer our customers that same awesome Italian dinner experience, in a comfortable atmosphere, complimented with vintage music and excellent service.
Attilio's Tavern is a place where the food is freshly prepared and you are always treated like family. So, come on in, take a step back in time and celebrate life! Buon Appettito!
