Located in the northern suburbs of Minneapolis, Champlin is a neat little community comprised of mostly ‘neighbors’ and home to the area’s best kept secret! Buona Sera is a treasure so good, even Donny Osmond made the trek to dine here. Purely Tuscan, Buona Sera (Italian for “good night”) is like stepping into an old world Italian café rich with tradition and homey decor. With a mere 20 tables or so, Buona Sera caters to anyone wanting a quiet night out and also does really well with large groups. They boast an impressive wine list and offer very personalized service. Always call ahead as the place is nearly always booked. Buona Sera offers a terrific menu that includes pastas, leg of lamb, salmon and steaks. The bruschetta is out-of-this-world fabulous, as is the spinach artichoke dip. Baked with three cheeses and served with bread, it’s one of my favorites. Noteworthy is their sun dried tomato salad dressing. It’s a house specialty that is so good, you’ll want to dip everything into it!
