A New Italian Restaurant With a Wine Garden Opens in Southern Highlands in September

A new Italian restaurant opening in September anchors a 21,000-square-foot resort hall in Southern Highlands’ Tuscan Highlands apartment community. Becca’s Restaurant & Lounge plans to serve homemade dishes with vegetarian and Keto options.

The 9,500-square-foot restaurant features a patio with water and fire elements and an imported wine cart from Italy that overlooks Grove Beach Club, the complex’s pool area. A wine garden offers a vine-draped setting with Italian mosaic tiled benches.

Inside, diners find lounge-style seating and 17 high-definition TVs as well as a virtual reality multi-sport simulator that features golf, hockey, and soccer; gaming stations with Xbox and PlayStation; and arcade games.

The menu includes pizzas, salads, pastas, bar appetizers, pastries, and more that diners can order through a QR-based menu and in-app ordering system. Meals can be served to go or through the property’s temperature-controlled food lockers on the second floor of the resort hall.
