"Located in the Westport Center—a small strip mall—you’ll find a modest and unpretentious venue furnished with basic chairs and tables, a printed menu, and a simple decor. Although the atmosphere and ambiance may not be impressive, I assure you that the food more than compensates for it. When you’re seated, a waitress will take your order and start the dinner process. I mention "process" because things at Lello's don't seem to move at lightning speed; this is due in part to the fact that everything is made to order with fresh, homemade ingredients. All their pasta, dressings, and even their fine mozzarella are crafted in-house.
I had the pleasure of dining with three family members, allowing us to sample a variety of dishes and desserts. We ordered a selection of dinner entrees, including two Friday night specials and a few house specialties. One highlight, although not traditionally Italian, was the Friday night special of Seared Salmon served with mango chutney and black beans and rice; it was incredibly flavorful and beautifully presented.
As a fan of Veal Parmigiana, I must say that Lello's version is among the best I've ever had. The veal was incredibly tender, generously topped with homemade sauce and mozzarella, and simply melted in my mouth."
