We were drawn into the restaurant by the window sign offering “authentic Sicilian cannoli“ beside the plate of empty pastry tubes, confirming the sign to be accurate. (Pre-filled cannoli tubes get soggy) The furnishings are simple, even utilitarian. However, the food is excellent in preparation and presentation and the service was equal to it. We knew we had found authentic Italian cuisine when we noticed the party at the table beside us were speaking Italian. This restaurant is a remarkable value given its location.
