Description
Since 1982, this neighborhood kitchen has prepared Neapolitan recipes featuring sauces slow-simmered for six hours. While some regulars praise the size and flavor of the shrimp parm heroes and well-filled calzones, the restaurant currently faces highly mixed customer feedback. Recent visits reveal inconsistencies in food preparation, such as undercooked dough and hard garlic knots. Delivery order accuracy has also varied, and customer service encounters range from prompt deliveries to defensive staff responses when handling order disputes.
