bycasual dining at its simplest form, when the owner is in the kitchen this is the place to be! over the years ive visited this establishment they keep improving over the years they have noted to me and my family they hit a point where they where burned out on hours and had some help issues, We have had some bad nights where it got so busy they couldnt keep up but we will wait for good food. Usually if its not bought at Graziano's they make it. They are always friendly and when theres no tickets in the kitchen the owner or his son are always friendly and saying hello to everyone. I remember when they first opened and they have made leaps and bounds over the years. The pizza taste straight out of New York and the onion rings are to die for. When asked why they never are in the "best of's" they owners state thats for the guys with the bucks that advertise and toot there own horns. As ive learned word of mouth is the way to this joint planted in the cities south side the outside appears a bit scary but one step inside you see racing memorabilia, coca cola decor, and a wall of celebrities that have stopped in as well as presidential candidates. They also told us how before Wells Fargo they where the pizza guys at the barnstormers games and the state wrestling tournaments as well as many concerts WWF wrestling. For a little place they can hold there own. There pasta's are also delicous i dont know about the one reviewer but cavetelli comes with sauce and noodles and smothered in rich mozzarella, you have to ask for your choice of plain, sausage or home meat balls. This sauce is not for the weak its authentic and dates all the way back home to Italy where it was the recipe of there ancestors. Then there is the finale the sausage sandwhich!!! i have never tasted anything like this sandwhich anywhere its a toasted crispy crust bread a 3/4 of a pound sausage patty hand pressed that hangs over the bun on both sides its a monster and with a choice of 5 different pepper options its the best sandwhich in town hands down. They have explained to us that they are back on track and committed to serving great food. There salads are nothing out of the ordinary and for the kids they can serve spaghetti and chicken strips, mozz sticks etc. but for the best pizza in town and sandwhiches I recommend you give em a try. Im hooked and happy to know they are opening a location downtown in the near future
