The new Italian restaurant at Foxwoods Resort Casino officially arrived on Kentucky Derby Saturday — bright, airy, tasty and somewhat pricey in the space formerly occupied by Al Dente.

Caputo Trattoria opened this month from Craveable Hospitality Group, which runs also-satisfying David Burke Prime steakhouse next door in the Grand Pequot Tower’s restaurant level — the brainchild of Craveable’s Culinary Director Matt O’Neill and Executive Chef Gary LaMothe.
