About Candelori's

Upscale Italian dining thrives in Smithfield without the trek into the city. Tucked along The Horsley Drive, this lively room turns out house-made pappardelle folded through rich osso buco ragù, salt-crusted steaks, and crisp zucchini flowers. Tableside wine guidance navigates an extensive cellar list—whether pairing a dry white against garlic prawns or pouring a crisp aperitivo to kick off a family milestone. Dinner wraps with delicate layers of espresso-soaked tiramisu.

  • Dedicated rear parking: An on-site dedicated lot at the rear, accessed via the alleyway, removes arrival guesswork.
  • Sommelier cellar guidance: Insightful tableside recommendations match plates to bottles from a substantial cellar list.
