My family and I have enjoyed excellent dining since the first day they opened. We love the owners, their variety of menu items, the consistency of their food, service relaxed ambiance. Mama's brownies are the best. Because I'm diabetic, I buy one, have it cut into 4 smaller squares eat each one after 4 lunch or dinner meals. They keep well in my refrigerator taste great, even after I defrost it if needed. So far we've enjoyed over 22 years of excellence consistently every time. We love Paolo and Mama because they treat me as family. We miss Papa for six years. I arrived one day, parked in a handicap spot as usual, walked in asked where I could sit be served. The servers pointed to a table where they had unknown to me already had put my drink spices on my favorite table. We all had a great laugh over that one! I have always felt at home here ever since day one, opening day many years ago. We love the people, the food and the excellent hospitality service. We believe that no other Italian/ Sicilian restaurant has an equal here. Come and in comfort and caring whenever you're in Altoona, PA. Joel A. Weiss
A group of us were in the mood for Italian food, and this business came highly recommended. Tucked away in a residential area, this business has strong local support for dinner, drinks and take-out. The local are not wrong. The interior is, well, eclectic with pictures on the walls of local people and local events, but done in a typical Italian neighborhood place style. Once seated, we had a variety of choices with a wait staff member who was spot on in terms of interaction and meeting all our services needs. I split a Large pizza with a friend and was very good, on par with the best pizza I have enjoyed with plenty left over. Other folks got Italian dishes, and overall everybody was very pleased. This was the kind of place we're tipping more than required because it is merited, so take that as a rousing endorsement!
Walked in and was politely told I can sit anywhere I want including the bar. bartender was friendly. Had me a drink immediately. I ordered the stuffed shells, came with a meatball and a sausage, with a side salad. Everything seem to be homemade, except for the sausage. The food was all good, although I would not rave about it. Would I come back? Possibly. The restaurant was very busy so they must be doing something right.
Very low quality meat. steak was very tough on my moms steak salad and my chicken parm was soggy and tasted frozen because of how stringy and tough it was. Very cheap low quality food. seems like they are trying to cut corners. just make food at home you are better off. used to love this place, now unfortunately things change
