The dishes were full of tasteful aroma.
The garlic bread with the fettuccine was amazing.
Great crisp to the bite.
The Supreme Calzone, satisfied and tasteful.

Huge portions, well seasoned. Calzone, lasagne and scampi are awesome. Garlic is sliced, not crushed or minced. Cash only but they havean ATM.

Food was ok, I just couldn't get past how dirty the place was. Windows, booth, floor and the ceiling where the fan circulates is so dirty. Truthfully it was discusting and made me wonder if the kitchen was as dirty!? Won't be going back...

The portion has gotten smaller over the years. I've seen them precook and portion chicken in advance when they left the kitchen door open. The staff is fine with the exception of the head cook and the heavy set lady staring at me the whole time making feel me unwelcome. I can tell they are still open for being a neighborhood restaurant but in all the food quality is nothing to rave about.

This used to be my all time favorite place. I think they changed chefs because the food just didnt taste the same. They were known for their garlic but my dish didnt have any. I hope it goes back to original recipes because I used to love the food.

Don't let the outside of the building keep you from entering the simple, clean, and comfortable inside of this restaurant. Then, get ready for some great Italian food. My veal parmigiana and side spaghetti were delicious. I had the minestrone soup as part of the "dinner" selection, and it was delicious as well, with a slightly spicy kick. Great servers as well. This is an all cash establishment, so keep that in mind.Also, 10% discount on entries for 55 or older. Great food, great place.

I've been going to this Italian family restaurant since I was a kid ?, it's been at least 20 years and the quality of the food never changes , portions are pretty big; so expect to take home leftovers. I usually always get the Alfredo pasta with chicken, which is loaded with slivers of garlic and mushrooms and soo creamy and flavorful?, but this time I wanted to get Carbonara Romana , it was very delicious. It had pancieta and peas and creamy chessy? sauce, which was very satisfying. My husband settled for the lasagna, which is never a disappointment☺️. It was sooo cheesy and had a delicious marinara sauce .The pizza is really good too . And I can't forget the tiramisu was sooo good , you gotta try it !! The atmosphere is a lil outdated (it hasn't changed in over 20 years ) , it's not a fancy place but the prices are fancy prices $$ , (if you know what I mean ) but since I can remember it's always had high prices. The food is delicious and definitely worth a try , the service was good , I have never had bad service here since I can remember . I definitely recommend this place .

Where do I even start? I unfortunately made reservations here for my entire family (group of 13) to celebrate my mom’s birthday. From the moment we got there, the waitress seemed to be in a bad mood. She waited 30 mins, yes, an entire half an hour to take our order. We didn’t even get bread at that point. Then we found out that in addition to being CASH ONLY (which is insane, it’s 2023) they also don’t split checks. This made it complicated. I really wish we would have left at that point, but we all ordered and couldn’t wait to get good food after some of the reviews I’d read. To say the food was bad would have to be a huge understatement. When I say 10 out of the 13 people who got food HATED it, I’m not exaggerating. And we are NOT PICKY. I don’t know what happened with their food today (this was my first time) but it was beyond disgusting. The scallop scampi was so fishy, when I had my mom and sister taste it they literally spit it out. It was SO salty and tasted like it had gone bad. Then several people ordered the chicken fettuccini alfredo and some how THAT tasted fishy!! We think some of their sea food must have gone bad and the juice got into the Alfredo sauce? All I know is nearly all of us didn’t eat more than a feels bites. I essentially paid $400 for garlic bread and iceberg salad. But what added insult to injury was how terrible the service and atmosphere was. The waitress was so grumpy and annoyed the entire time. We paid for all the food we didn’t eat so I’m not sure why she was upset. Just the fact we were a big party seemed to annoy her. She then added a 20% gratuity to the bill - which I normally tip 25% but tonight she didn’t even deserve 10. Literally none of us will ever be coming back and I am FLOORED that this place has the reviews it does. It’s literally NASTY and incredibly overpriced.Update: 6 out of the 13 of us got food poisoning (pretty much anyone who ate some of the seafood!) BEWARE!

Authentic genuine Italian food in cozy hometown atmosphere. And the garlic bread? Forget about it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Important: Cash only ?.
I thought this place was just okay. I liked my appetizer (clam chowder) way better than my main course (chicken cacciatore).
The chicken cacciatore was bland. Also it was mainly pasta with just a tiny piece of chicken. There was something off about it. Really disappointed.
Our glasses of Cabernet were good ? as well as the garlic bread ?.
I do plan on returning and trying something else- maybe the pizza. I want to love this place because it’s an unassuming local restaurant - I love that. It’s important to support our local businesses.
