First of all, they don't have a lighted sign in front so it can be kind of difficult to see them from the BUSY Western Boulevard. They are in the old Pizza Inn building.

I have had takeout subs and have dined in. Everything I have had has been top notch. The sauces they use are "grownup" friendly, that is, some "Italian" restaurants serve sauces that are suitable for kids taste. While that is not a bad thing, per se, I would rather spend my scarce funds on food not designed for 8 year-olds. Servings are more than generous and salads are fresh and crisp.

My wife had the Lasagne for our last visit and it was absolutely the best!

We will be eating there more.
