"Since we passed through Connecticut on our way to Fall River, we decided to start the holiday weekend off a little differently," Cabral posted. "We LOVED it here! It was the coziest restaurant filled with love and delicious food. I recommend the mozzarella carozza and the spicy vodka rigatoni."
Cabral joined "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" cast in 2013. The series follows the personal and professional lives of affluent women in different geographic regions around the country.
The visit came a few months after "Jersey Shore" cast members Vinny Gaudagnino, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino dined at Constantino's Pasta Bowls.
"Since opening this past July, the amount of love and support we continuously get from the community and local celebrities mean the world to my husband Michael and I," said Robyn Bordes, the owner of Constantino's Pasta Bowls and Love You a Latte.
"Danielle and her family were en route to Massachusetts for the holidays and stopped in to eat and we were so appreciative to be able to welcome them to Constantino's Pasta Bowls and Love You a Latte. When opening our business, Michael and I wanted to have a place that feels like home where families can spend time while enjoying delicious Italian food. With that being said, to see our vision come together over time has been nothing short of amazing," Bordes added.
