My friend brought me a canolli from here. It was delicious! Great flavor filling and crunchy shell. We tried several stores and restaurants, and this one had the best canollis from our sampling.

Great Italian Food and Pizza. My companion and I shared a pizza. There were 9 of us. Our dishes included pizza, spaghetti, penne, Ravioli, and large salads. All are declared excellent and large portions with numerous take-home leftover boxes.

Parking: They had a lot of off street parking, but it fills up because it is a large restaurant. Didn't see any handicap parking.

When I walk into this restaurant, the smells in the atmosphere remind me of stepping back into the real Italian family restaurants. The one where there’s always a family table in the background, the one where there’s always a family member hanging out if not more. The hospitality makes you feel like you’re stepping back. Family. The food is very traditional very good. We had pizza, Soup and tortellini Alfredo. The prices are reasonable, but most of all I really enjoyed being here and feeling like I was going to visit my own family.

Great Italian beef! Easily one of the best sandwiches I have ever tasted! My wife loved the Mediterranean salad. Good sized portions at a reasonable price. Will definitely be back! Was told the lasagna is to die for. Next visit for dinner I will find out!

I've ate there a few times in the past and my Italian beef was always huge but this particular time it was small and I wasn't happy about that. It was no bigger than a hot dog

Our server was excellent. She made suggestions when we indicated some indecision. She checked on us often. And she was very friendly.

The food was good. Fresh, hot, and plated well.

Lovely little Italian place. I was passing g through town and decided to try it based on a couple of google reviews. Pizza was fantastic and really enjoyed the toasted ravioli.Don’t think you could go wrong with anything from this place. Highly recommend!

I've lived here for seven years and deeply regretting that I haven't been here until tonight. This is going to be our pizza/go to place for dinner out. The vibe/atmosphere was very relaxing and pleasant, great for a date or chill feeling after a hectic schedule. The staff were very friendly and the service was phenomenal. The food was absolutely amazing. The pizza was, in my opinion, the best in the area, and I've eaten at pretty much every other pizza place around. We got a half hamburger pepperoni, and half pineapple Canadian bacon (because my partner is a heathen and doesn't mind committing the worst pizza sin). Admittedly, I did try a piece of that pineapple and Canadian bacon and I actually liked it, which is a first. There hasn't been a single other place I've ever liked that from. The marinara they use for the toasted ravioli is extremely good, speaking of, meat toasted ravioli is hard to come by here. Having grown up in St Louis area, that's a staple for any Italian place and theirs is pretty good. Not the best, but definitely not the worst. I am extremely happy that we finally gave this place a try.
