This is a nice little family owned business. Food is great. Staff is friendly and I love it. The inside is almost always a nice calm environment and incredibly clean. I highly recommend anything with their homemade bread because it's to die for.

New to the area and this is my first experience. My biggest complaint with Italian food is the high salt content. My meatball sandwich does not fit that description, neither did the mostaccoli. To be honest I stopped eating my sandwich to make this review. I'm a big fan already, that bread is unbelievable! I got a cinnamon bread with frosting and when I opened it I laughed, because it is just their bread with a lot of cinnamon topping on it but once I took a bite I understood. Can't wait to try you guys again thanks a lot!

Stopped for a quick snack and ended up with a early dinner. The menu is outstanding and the flavors are even better. Yummo. Employees even told me what was the biggest bang for my buck. Very satisfying experience. Have been back twice since then. Fast and clean. Great place for the whole family, or just friends getting together in a calm,comfortable atmosphere.
