Als Cafe and Creamery

Ever since owner Wendy Reed DiBenedetto opened her comfortable downtown Batavia eatery in 2014, satisfied patrons have returned for the wide selection of fine Italian flavors featured on the popular restaurant’s menu – like favorite appetizers crabcake cannelloni dei Cesari, outstanding entrees such as cannolichi al cartoccio, or sumptuous desserts like our tiramisu or homemade limoncello. Our executive chef, Ernesto Estrada runs the kitchen that specializes in a tantalizing fusion of regional Italian cuisine with an emphasis on the traditional influences that make the appetizers, entrees and desserts so delicious. Each menu item we serve is prepared with fresh, authentic ingredients. Our meats, vegetables, and seafood dishes are created from scratch daily. We also feature chef’s tasting menus with wine pairings. Many of our excellent dishes are prepared with our unique wood burning stove that was imported all the way from Italy.
