We ordered two Lasagnas and Chicken Alfredo with three sodas. Working hours until 11 p.m. during work week. We ordered for take out because they were closing. Prices were around 20$ per person including soda. Meal size is good, worker was polite and nice. Neighbourhood is sketchy during the night, but maybe it's just us because we are not from around here. We found it using google maps search for italian restaurant. Family owned and operated. Street parking down the street and in front of the restaurant. Solid 8 / 10 overall rating.

I think this place deserves a little better than a 3 star. The chicken Alfredo was actually really delicious. I would absolutely and most definitely get it again. The supremo pizza was pretty good, but I've had better. This place is worth trying and I would come here/order from them again for sure.

In town for a convention. They were listed on ChowNow. Food was very good I can't imagine that the hotel's stuff would have come anywhere close. Recommend the Italian specialty pizza.

The chicken Parmesan turkey panini and the barbecue wings are delicious! The customer service is great and I'm thankful for the days that they deliver right to your doorstep!

These guys make one heck of a calzone! The outside crust has a nice flavor and they have mariners sauce inside, which you don't normally see at other places. The portion is perfect and the all meat calzone is one of my favorites now. My wife got the Prima pizza (onions, goat cheese, artichokes, etc) which to me is a crime against nature but her and my mom loved the pizza. They even delivered all the way to Takoma Park (3rd party) which was crazy but I am happy they did. To each his/her own I suppose...
