The Scene
Run by the Caltado family since 1968, and renovated in 2005, this restaurant and pizzeria is a neighborhood favorite. A checkerboard floor and glass, lantern-style lamps set a family-friendly tone. Half the restaurant is devoted to a takeout, with a traditional pizza counter and sidewalk window, while the other half offers waiter service. Pizza toppings stick to the basics--you won't find any pancetta here--but entrees offer a few surprises like stuffed roast pork and an extensive seafood menu.

Not only is the food delicious the staff is nice and informative. From the wide variety of pizza by the slice to the selection of hot food, everything I've ever had here was great! I'm glad that the quality of Nino's food has remained the same but much more variety has come into play.

Nino's was good but Francesco's is the best... fresh ingredients, expecially the veggies , delicious. The steam tables get your taste buds rocken. Plenty of food for the $$, doggie bags are almost aways required. Friendly atmosphere great neighborhood hang now that outdoor sitting is available. Beer and wine now on the menu with home made tiramisu. The cooks remain the same they just added friendlier counter people.
