Like a pasta topped with farm-fresh veggies or a bust of Alexander Hamilton slathered in unpasteurized honey, certain things just taste better when crafted using seasonal ingredients. Upgrade your palatal preferences with today's Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of upscale Italian fare at Cafe Eleganza in Pembroke.
The dedicated chefs at Cafe Eleganza churn out classic Italian cuisine using high-quality, seasonal ingredients whenever possible. An extensive dinner menu fills bellowing bellies with hearty delicacies such as handmade lobster ravioli, crammed with meaty morsels of native lobster and drizzled with a velvety lobster cream sauce ($15.99). Or, indulge in the timeless taste of the other, other white meat by ordering the Frangelico-cream-kissed medley of penne, chicken, toasted walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, and snow peas known only as Amanda ($13.99–$16.99). Customers can crunch into one of four crispy bruschetta options ($8.99–$9.99), which amalgamate colorful toppings including eggplant, roasted peppers, and gorgonzola into one dish easily held by the hands or feet, or skip straight to sliceable sustenance with a wood-fired-brick-oven pizza ($8.99+) available with a plain or whole-wheat crust and a compilation of classically compatible flavors such as apple, gorgonzola, and bacon ($11.99–$15.99) or tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and basil ($10.99–$14.99).
Aside from its everyday bill of fare, Cafe Eleganza also prepares a short list of lunch and dinner specials that change daily. Guests dropping by on Wednesday and Thursday nights can dine to the tune of melodic live music while bathed in the gentle glow of cerulean pendant lights, and patrons stopping by the rest of the week can enjoy the restaurant's friendly atmosphere and bottom-less water glasses.
