Best Value for the Money

by finicky_eater

I eat here all the time. This is my default restaurant, I know if I eat here the food will not disappoint. Love the olives and bread which are complimentary while you wait for your order. The staff is very friendly. Not a long wait for food at all. The prices are very reasonable because it's located near to St. John's University. If you have a large group you can call ahead to reserve a table. Definitely visit if you are in the neighborhood. Outdoor seating during summer months. Even though it's kinda small, I've never had to wait for a table.

• Pros: For casual dining, Great value, Great Food
• Cons: Tables too close together

Really good Italian food!

by tesawi

I love this place! It has become my favorite Italian restaurant in Queens. The pizza is so good, you want to lick the plate (my 5 year old nephew did)! The staff is very friendly, the service is great and I found it a great place for an impromptu dinner out or little dinner party with friends. Take the kids, they love it too!

• Pros: Comfortable and casual
• Cons: Not too many places to park

Delicious!

by peggychen428

My bf and I were there Fri night. My lasagna had just the right amount of mozzarella and meat. Salad (w/ mozzarella) had good dressing, but the cheese-ball halves needed a little more salt. The orange gelato had a mild, subtle flavor.

The food is great, try the penne alla vodka. And to end the meal try some hazelnut gelato..you'll be craving it forever!
