This one of my favorite hole in the wall Italian restaurants. I've been going here for over 25 years and have never had a bad meal. Prices are low and it's about a 10-15 minute Uber ride away.

Great hole in the wall Italian restaurant. We have been going here for 30 years and love it. Moderate to low prices. They don’t take reservations so there usually is a wait, especially on weekends. Try to go early if possible.
