    Always delicious and fragrant food in a cozy neighborhood atmosphere. The menu offers a variety of succulent entrees with rich sauces and refreshing salads. Enjoy a nice portion coupled a nice wine.

    Have never gone wrong with any Weekly Specials. Do not stick with the same thing when you come here. Everything is great. Be adventurous!

    This place is as casual as it gets. Which makes it affordable. Order at the counter and a server will bring out your dish. They also have curbside service. Awesome gelato!

    A Mandola's family restaurant so food is good, but it's VERY casual. And inexpensive. Good for families/kids, but I usually get food to go. Counter service. Ok wines for a glass to drink waiting food.

    The lasagna. The presentation is poor, drenched in tomato sauce, but it’s actually pretty tasty.

    Spedinno di mare is good and fettucini alfredo varies. Portions are small though.

    The food is subpar and way overpriced for what you're getting...which is crap. I was so displeased with the high school cafeteria quality food that I wished I had time machine so I could have not gone

    Get the rigatoni rustica: large tube pasta topped with eggplant an Italian sausage. Service is quick!
