We were having a birthday party next door at the karaoke , and the staff recommended this Italian restaurant to us. We ordered three pizzas which were very tasty and we will definitely come back for more next time. Highly recommended!

Excellent food
This family-owned local gem has been popping up in my feed a lot lately so we finally made it in for a dinner. Highlights were the garlic bread and gnocchi, and their pink sauce is to die for! Service was very friendly but the vibes inside were a little strange - I’d definitely come back but would opt for take out.
For our dinner we both got the pasta sampler which comes with a half order of their lasagna and two other types of pasta of your choice. Hubby opted for the gnocchi and angel hair and I opted for the ravoli (half meat and half cheese). The server recommended their pink sauce and it was absolutely fantastic! It’s a mix of their Alfredo and marinara so if you love pink sauce, theirs is a must for sure.
We started with side Caesar salads and they were pretty decent with an ample portion. We also got an order of garlic bread and ommggg it was some of the best garlic bread I’ve ever had - highly recommend. You’ll need it to soak up the more than generous amount of sauce they give you lol! Lots of garlicky butter with a crispy outside and soft inside. Excellent with their flawless pink sauce.
Unfortunately I didn’t care for their lasagna at all. It had a strange aftertaste and the meat almost tasted burnt. I wouldn’t get it again. But their ravioli and gnocchi were both fantastic. Great flavors and the texture of the gnocchi was lovely - might have been the best gnocchi I ever had and I would definitely get this again.
We finished our meal with their Spumoni dessert and it was also delicious. Where other Italian restaurants serve it as a bowl of ice cream, Alex’s serve it as a decorative slice of ice cream cake and it’s so nice! Would also get this again.
We almost thought they were closed at first when we walked in - it was late afternoon on a weekday and the restaurant was very dark with a divey, seedy feel to it. And it was completely silent except for banter and music coming from the kitchen - even though there were several other parties dining in. Maybe it’s more lively during dinner rush hours? Felt very weird sitting in our dark little corner lol.
Despite the weird vibe, staff were helpful and friendly and we felt very welcome by them. Prices are pretty fair for the area - I’d say mid range. And the portions are massive so it’s a good deal. They’re located in a small strip mall with plenty of parking.
Such delicious and authentic food! Always a GREAT time ❤️
Last night we celebrated our birthday, and they treated us with such friendliness and a tentativeness, and the food was absolutely delicious!
Food was great. Kids loved the cheesy pizza. Ice cream dessert was delicious.
Not an Italian thing but they need some good wing options to go with the tasty pizza! ?

It's nice to get something that isn't asian food, when you're always surrounded by it. This family owned restaurant was next door to the karaoke place we just left, so we figured we'd give it a try. I had the Chicken Parmigiana, while my friend had the pasta sampler. We both finished our plates clean, so we very much enjoyed our meals here. The waiters came by often enough to check in on us, despite it being a busy time and many of the tables were filled. Definitely come by here if you're looking for Italian food. They also seem to have a special take out menu, so check it out if you're looking for that instead.

We've been coming here for years and they never disappoint. Their pizza is the best in town and always loaded with toppings. The chicken parmesan is delicious as well. The staff is always friendly and service is quick.
