This was a great place for Italian food. I just wish it was open on the weekends and a little bigger with more food options. The pizza and raviolis were just amazing. The owner makes you feel at home. Will definitely go back many times!!

It tastes like my childhood. Its that small kicthen hometown pizza vibe. The stuff you get in the northeast united states. Its fresh every day and when you get a glimpse of the kitchen you can see them throwing dough and making pies.

Love this place! The owner is so kind and accommodating. I've seen him take plates of hot food from his buffet outside to hungry homeless individuals. Gotta love it

Visiting from out of town for work, and decided to stop in for lunch. The aesthetics are humble, but inviting. The food is good and priced very fairly for a buffet in the city. The service was EXCELLENT. The owner was friendly and very attentive to drink refills. I’d stop here again and would recommend it to anybody looking for a casual lunch buffet option.

Super friendly and excellent service in a clean and welcoming atmosphere. I eat here when I am in town for my job, as I stay in a nearby hotel. The proprietor is so very kind and the rest of staff is excellent!! Good selection of salad items and Italian food.
