The Runway Ristorante & Lounge Reviews

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Formerly Primo Barone. The restaurant has a great staff, great menu (still Italian predominant with other options and great bar (though we didn't sample)). Convenient and reasonably priced. Upstairs in the terminal building. Never ate at the original, but this is great.
