Recent Reviews
My wife and I really enjoyed the entire setting family style dinning.
We both love eggplant very much the seasonings were not salty
or spicy plenty of sauce stuffed with fresh ricotta cheese. All of
what we could see were large entrees no fru fru at all.
This is another local good place to dine in Floral Park.

This is my favorite italian restaurant in town. I have been going to them since they had their restaurant in Queens' Village. They have moved in the last year or so & of course we followed them. The prices skyrocketed since the last few month. My veal cutlet parm dish was $37. That is really outrageous! Unfortunately I don't think we will be returning, not with these prices.
