"This is another callback to my childhood. My Great Auntie Olga lived right down the way near the petting zoo and this was her spot. This is another place that I treat like Phillipe's with Cole's, don't talk to me about Tony's Frumentos is the only show in town. While on the subject Claro's can't touch them either, they are in a league of their own. When you walk in your are greeted with the vast amount of Italian imports that they carry. You can get sweets, wine, noodles, if you're looking for it they have it. The staff is very friendly and if you are having a hard time deciding they will steer you in the right direction. I know that this is a family owned business and you can see that it is run like that as well. I can tell you without hesitation there is not a wrong order on this menu. Everything is worth a try. If I am hosting their 30 Destroyer is hands down my favorite to take to a party, there are never left overs. When you go hot sandwich their chicken cutlet is very tasty and its not overly breaded. Their pasta dishes are really great. I think one of the hardest things to do is a simple spaghetti with sauce, and if you are ever just craving that this is the place to get it. All of their raviolis are great, I couldn't decide between the mushroom or the lobster. Their sides are all really good too. My favorite is the pesto pasta salad. I always find myself buying an antipasto screwer which is one of my favorite things. If you feel like popping in they have a nice seating area in the back. Get yourself a beer, wait for your meal, and wait to feel like you had a homemade meal prepared with love. They are impeccably clean an I have never seen this place out of sort before. When ordering before they close or on game days, make sure to order and pay before. It will save you time in line and you will be able to walk in and walk out. If you are wondering if you should try it, stop and just do it, you won't regret it."
