"This old-school Italian haunt in Wash Park (which now has a sibling in MacGregor Square) has been serving up family-style portions of red-sauce classics since long before the concept of communal dining was cool (1994, to be exact). Prepare to be plied with the large-format works: antipasti misti, sausage and peppers, chicken piccata, eggplant Parmigiana, baked ziti, and then some." - Ruth Tobias
