Loveria Caffe’s full sign reads: “Loveria Caffe – Taste of Italy.” Well, that’s quite an understatement, as this month-old Italian restaurant-lounge-emporium delivers more than just a mere tidbit of Italy. Rather, it stages a bountiful feast for the eyes and taste buds in one of the area’s most architecturally enthralling and culinarily authentic settings.

Though Colleyville’s main water tower is visible from the cream-colored, palazzo-like façade of Loveria, this restaurant’s cooking and aura firmly plant it in the distinctive Italian region of Emilia-Romagna.
