“My go to place for special occasions. Mike always makes us feel at home. Not only is the food fantastic, but the staff is helpful and kind. They even went out of their way to help my handicap mother get in and out of the car! Food is delicious and tons of variety when compared to the standard Italian restaurant. Great portions and even a decent amount of healthy options. Thank you to the staff for making my night even more special!“

“Excellent Italian in a very competitive restaurant scence in Rockville Center. Been there for decades and it is a local gem. The food is awesome but I do not like that they do not give pasta with an entree but rather give mashed potatoes. Pasta can be ordered ala carte. A little silly if you ask me but those are the rules. They close promply at 9pm and last order taken is at 830pm so be aware of that. Excellent wine list. Amarone choices are great.“

“First let me say the customer service is impeccable. I called to order a pie and the guy in the phone was so pleasant. I ordered a half plain half pepperoni pie and a beef patty. Sad to say they didn’t have any more beef patties but the pie was delicious. I have had their hot and honey pizza before as well, this shop does not disappoint. I will return. Nice to see restaurants that value customers! This is real pizza!“
