In Italy, a trattoria is a small, unpretentious casual restaurant. And that is exactly what we are….an intimate Italian inspired restaurant in a specialty meat shop. We serve Italian food with a Mid-Atlantic twist. Our ingredients are locally sourced except for a few spices and salt. Also some of our seafood comes from as far north as Maine but all are responsibly harvested.

Short answer: Yes, with a $25 corkage fee. Long answer: We’ve started a winery called Punk Rock WIne Co! We are serving Pennsylvania beer, wine, spirits & cocktails along with a beverage pairing. If you would still prefer to BYOB, we will waive the corkage fee if you order a drink from us.

The menu changes often depending on season and what we feel like making. But you can count on it being an Italian inspired, 5 course dinner using local ingredients (except for a few spices and salt). Our first course will consist of a variety of small plates featuring vegetables, house made salumi & preserves. Followed by a few pasta courses, a protein with a couple of vegetable focused sides and dessert.

Yes and no. Unfortunately, we will not be able to accommodate gluten allergies. Our space is small and we make all of our bread and pasta in house. Cross contamination is unavoidable. Most other allergies/restrictions may be accommodated. Please let us know about allergies when booking with us. LAST MINUTE DIETARY RESTRICTIONS CANNOT BE ACCOMMODATED.

We are now on opentable!!! Reservations are released on the 1st of every month at 1pm for the following month. If you join our newsletter, you’ll get early access to reservations. If you couldn’t get a reservation, add yourself to the waitlist . You’ll automatically get a notification if a table opens up. All reservations are pre-paid and we do not offer refunds (though we are happy to reschedule your reservation)

Send us an email at trattoria@heavymetalsausage.com. If your reservation is 48 hours away or more, we can reschedule. If you are cancelling within 48 hours of your reservation, the offer to reschedule is not guaranteed. Generally speaking, we do not offer refunds. We do understand that things happen. Just let us know.

Our space is quite small. Each seating is 14 - 16 people so, for us, anything larger than 4 people is a larger group. But shoot us an email. We may be able to accommodate a table of 6 but anything larger than that would probably have to be a private dinner.

Yes! But you’ll have to contact us to book your reservation. email us at trattoria@heavymetalsausage.com
