50-Year-Old Burbank Icon Pinocchio Is Still Dishing Up Red-Sauce Joy - Eater LA
"Monte Carlo Italian Deli, purchased by Yugoslavian-born Mark Brankovich in 1969, has grown to include a wide range of Italian goods and a wholesale baking operation. The attached Pinocchio Restaurant, established in 1971, offers a variety of Italian-American dishes at bargain prices. The venue is known for its affordable meals, with entrees below $10 and house wine at $3.50 per glass. It's a popular spot for locals, offering a nostalgic and community-centric dining experience." - Farley Elliott
