About the Business

Specialties

The traditional Italian fare is based upon Della Santina family recipes from Lucca, Italy. Some family recipes include the ever-popular, Gnocchi Della Nonna, potato dumplings in a light tomato sauce, which were inspired by Quirico's mother. Diners love the Lasagna, the Penne Contadina, and our selection of meats off of the rotisserie. The fresh fish, whether it's halibut, sea bass, salmon, swordfish, or local petrale sole, is always a treat, cooked to perfection. On several occasions, our food has been described as "Italian comfort food."

History

Established in 1990.

The doors to Della Santina's opened in June, 1990 by Quirico (Dan) and Shirley Della Santina. Formerly one of the owners of Marin Joe's in Corte Madera, Quirico decided to bring his family recipes to the wine country. In 1991, Quirico and Shirley's son Robert joined the business. He now runs the front of the restaurant and is responsible for the large selection of wines on the menu. He and his wife, Nicole, have also started the restaurant's wine club, Enoteca Della Santina, featuring value wines from around the world. The traditional Italian fare is based upon Quirico's family recipes growing up in Lucca, Italy and his sheer talent as a chef.
