Message from Trattoria da Vinci

Ambitious fare a step ahead of the usual Italian dishes, delivered by servers who tell you the biz.

  • Happy hour
  • Evening dinner specials
  • Weekly lunch specials
Inspired by a lifelong dream, visionary and current owner Diane J. Mattaini opened the doors of Trattoria da Vinci in the fall of 1999 with one goal in mind. She wanted to offer her guests the opportunity to experience truly authentic Italian dining without ever leaving Minnesota.

Trattoria is the home of the famous pasta bar for both lunch and dinner. Call and inquire about our daily specials. Our signature dish is the Gamberoni Portofino. Fantastic jumbo shrimp sauteed in a brandy cream sauce, with portabella mushrooms and asparagus with the chef's choice of vegetables.

A great, romantic ambience will give you a sense of walking into old Italy.

Try our appetizer Frittura Mista which features calamari, shrimp, scallops, and sliced vegetables, lightly floured and fried. Mention CS RES when making a reservation please.

Editorial Review for Trattoria da Vinci – by Citysearch Editor

In Short
At the lunchtime pasta bar, a long line of St. Paul office workers snakes around the restaurant. At dinner with live jazz, the mood is as relaxed and romantic as the women in the Leonardo da Vinci prints hanging on the wall. For lunch, the recommended pork loin-and-spinach panini is juicy, savory and garlicky. The chicken ravioli is above average, but the star dish is the Parmesan-crusted trim lamb chops.
