"If you're in Cumberland and still mourning the loss of Scalini's, the neighborhood's long-lived homestyle Italian restaurant, Eataliano is here to fill the void. Expect a similar menu of pasta usuals, but everything in this intimate space feels much lighter and brighter than the cavernous Scalini's. For starters, they have an eggplant parm that won't put you to sleep and a natural-light-filled space and patio bar that you'll want to linger in for hours—and you might as well max out the four-hour free parking here. The family-owned vibes give the impression that everyone is welcome to stay awhile—whether it's couples on date nights or parents enjoying a grown-up meal of creamy salmon cannelloni while their kids color on menus and eat cheese pizza." - nina reeder, demarco williams, juli horsford
