Cantoro Trattoria

Cantoro Trattoria in Plymouth is an upscale casual Italian trattoria with a price point of about $40 per person. It is a strong fit when the goal is Italian cooking in a polished but not overly formal setting, with smart casual dress fitting the room.

The clearest way to order is around the signature dishes. Costollete Di Manzo Brasato, a braised short rib, is the richer anchor. Tagliatelle alla Capesante gives pasta-focused diners a clear direction, while Margherita Pizza and Salsiccia e Funghi Pizza make sense for a table that wants familiar Italian options alongside a more substantial main.

The trattoria format is the advantage

Cantoro Trattoria is best understood as an upscale casual Italian choice in Plymouth rather than a formal fine-dining room. The details point to a restaurant that works for diners who want a comfortable Italian meal at around $40 per person, with a dress code of smart casual.

The restaurant also has a verified Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for 2026. That recognition is a useful external signal for diners comparing Italian dinner options, but the core reason to go remains the direct trattoria appeal: Italian dishes, a polished casual setting, a price point that is easier to plan around than a major splurge meal.
