A delicious dinner – especially an authentic Italian meal – often leaves us absolutely stuffed and oh-so-happy. That’s a good thing, except…Italian restaurants usually dish up some of the most decadent desserts around. Like this unique Italian restaurant in Missouri. Save a bit of room for dessert because all dinners come with a complimentary slice of rum cake.

V’s Italiano Ristorante knows a little something about dishing up authentic Italian meals that keep diners coming back again and again. After all, this family-owned and operated restaurant has been a favorite since 1963.

Happy guests have used some pretty complimentary terms – divine and delicious, for example – to describe the rum cake. However, you’ll probably want to judge for yourself. Don’t worry if you’re simply too stuffed to eat it after dinner. Take it home in a to-go box.
