Step in, go through the menu, and place your order at the counter. The service is quick, the dishes well-created, and the portions generous, all good elements for a fine Italian meal.

Expect to find choices ranging from appetizers of chicken wings, mozzarella sticks and fried onion rings, to salads, pizza and pastas, and sandwiches with interesting names such as godfathers, ham explosion, and Philadelphia cordon bleu.

Calzones include classics such as meatball with sauce, parmesan and ricotta; healthier choices of veggie with potato, broccoli, onion, garlic, mushroom, black olives, beans and ricotta; regional varieties like Cajun of crawfish with chicken, Cajun spice, onion and peppers, and the specialty of steak and cheese.
