I've had their breakfast and gluten free pizza. Breakfast was omelet and spouse had waffles which we been enjoyed. I'm gluten free so I had the gluten free (celiacs) margherita pizza which was pretty good (wasn't bad, similar crust to other gluten free pizza, solid toppings). I'm not super sensitive with gluten free but didn't feel bad after eating there.

First time here and I was pleasantly surprised. It's quite large with many tables. The place is old. Service was good and no nonsense. Food was better than I expected. The fried zucchini were light, the pretzels weren't the best I've had but were ok. I got a gluten free pizza that maybe was frozen? I got excited about it and thought it was made with a kind of flour with no gluten but I don't think that's the case. Nonetheless the toppings were very good. The pasta D'Angelo was a bit plain but the gnocchi were very good. Portions are large. The Manhattan was ok although quite strong. We went on a Saturday evening, with reservation, and it was probably at half capacity. Parking is always available since the restaurant is in a plaza. It's not a place where I'd have a romantic date but more of a family gathering. Overall a solid,. reliable 3 stars.
