"Tucked away in a residential corner of Ridgewood, Rolo’s began selling sandwiches and slices of grape-and-olive focaccia when it opened last winter as a grocery store. Those items have now joined a full Italian American menu served at an outdoor seating area furnished with picnic tables, market lights, and artificial grass. By day, it functions as a casual neighborhood hangout; by night, young couples and large parties toast with glasses of orange wine. Of all the dishes on the menu of crowd-pleasers (grilled patty-shaped meatballs; double-cheeseburgers), the best options come from the wood-fired oven. Consider starting with polenta bread, which is made by combining pizza dough with polenta and achieves a miraculously moist puff. —Luke Fortney" - Eater Staff, NYMag Staff
