about
Welcome to Tutoni's, where each dish tells a story and every visit is an experience.
Our menu of creative dishes and new spins on traditional Italian standards – rooted in our region’s abundant agricultural scene – offer customers a dining experience they can’t find anywhere else. We strive to pair top-notch service in a sophisticated-casual setting for a unique York, Pa. Italian restaurant experience.
We embody the farm-to-table movement and take pride in working with local farms and farmers. Our seasonal menus emphasize the best local produce and meats grown and raised in Central Pennsylvania.
A menu like no other
Start off with our popular antipasto options, which include a charcuterie board that features a daily selection of cured meats and a cheese board with some of the finest cheese found in York and Lancaster counties. Warm up with a plate of calamari or our seasonal brussels sprouts. You could also enjoy a refreshing salad made with local greens from Brogue Hydroponics and other seasonal additions.
Our house-made pasta dishes are made from scratch daily – from traditional favorites such as our signature rigatoni bolognese or gemelli chicken, to true Italian gems like gnocchi and cavatelli – and are complemented with local flavors of the season, creating a meal that takes guests on a culinary journey that starts in “the old country” and ends right here in our downtown York, Pa., restaurant.
Using the best local ingredients available, our entrée selection changes with the seasons. Prepare your palate for bursts of fresh flavors in the spring and summer and comforting, cozy creations to get you through the cooler months.
And just when you think the meal couldn’t be better, our daily selection of heavenly house-made miniature desserts are the perfect sweet bite to end your experience.
Wash it down at the TT Bar
Featuring Italian focused scratch cocktails using all housemade ingredients (from our bitters to our cranberry juice), the TT Bar will quickly become your go-to place. Not just for cocktails, but for craft beer and a state of the art 32 bottle wine tasting system. Pay for what you pour (1, 3 or 5 ounces) and can try all of the different varietals and vintages that you’ve always desired, without having to buy the whole bottle.
Beginning in 2021, Tutoni’s has been awarded a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, annually, for our extensive wine program. Featuring glasses and bottles from around the world with a focus on Italian wine, our Sommelier Taylor Small is sure to find the perfect pour for your palate.
And all of this with some fabulous food to go with it (we ARE still Tutoni's after all). We have a rotating cast of small plates on our "10 under $10" tapas menu. Still scratchmade, still locally sourced, and still what you'll crave. We've got you covered for after work drinks, late afternoon meetings with a bite to eat, and a great date spot for a Friday night. See you at the TT Bar.
Cocktail Hour is 4-6pm in the bar area each day and features $5 zero proof selections, $6 seasonal sangria, $7 select wines, & $8 traditional spritzes
Our culinary team
It takes a talented team to help Tutoni’s succeed as a farm-to-table restaurant in York, Pa., with each member bringing a different skillset to the kitchen.
Dave Clarke - Executive Chef
Chef Dave Clarke was born and raised in upstate New York. Dave left New York to attend college at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and the Culinary Institute of America. When he finished his schooling, he became Executive Chef of The Blue Parrot in Gettysburg, PA.
Dave then moved into Philadelphia, PA to pursue his passion in the city. He has worked at numerous restaurants in Philadelphia, honing his skills in Regional Italian cuisine. His Executive Sous Chef contributions to the James Beard Award winning Vetri Osteria and art of fish butchery at Stephen Starr's Morimoto are just a few of his many accomplishments during his time spent in Philly.
Dave has moved back to Central PA to cultivate the York County food culture. He will be creating farm to table dishes that will make you question why you haven't been to Tutoni's sooner!
Taylor Small - Sommelier
Taylor was born and raised in Gettysburg, PA. At age 18, she won Best Bartender in Adams County in the Celebrate Gettysburg magazine. She has been with Tutoni’s since 2018, starting out as a server and a bartender training under her mentor, James Gibble. She has since worked her way to the top and is now the Sommelier and Beverage Director for Tutoni’s.
She takes great pride in crafting the perfect cocktail by infusing her own alcohol, and making her own bitters, syrups and cellos. At age 22, Taylor won the Award of Excellence in Wine Spectator magazine for her wine list at Tutoni’s and has continued to win the Award of Excellence every year since. In 2022, at the age of 24, Taylor passed the level one sommelier exam. These accomplishments are helping her reach her ultimate goal of becoming a master sommelier.
When she's not creating cocktails or pouring wine, Taylor enjoys spending time at home with her cats, Muffin and Linguine.
