"Cafe Bionda is the type of inoffensive Italian restaurant that won’t piss anyone off. You’re bound to see a lot of families, couples at varying stages in their relationships, and solo diners watching whatever game is on in the separate bar area. It’s earned its reputation as a neighborhood staple: service is friendly, dishes are consistently good, and the menu is full of pastas, steaks, and entrees like braciole that are ideal for leftovers. The dimly lit dining room might make you think this place is formal, but the massive fake swordfish on one wall and random mix of INXS and Dean Martin in the background say otherwise." - veda kilaru, adrian kane, john ringor
