Deano's is a great place if you want fresh or dried pasta. They are open 7 days a week…read more They have ziti, fusilli, shells, ziti, rigatoni, gemelli, malfadi and cavatelli to name a few. Some you can get dried some fresh. They also have quite a few varieties of sauces, many varieties of ravioli, stuffed shells (which I buy and store in the freezer for those nights I don't want to cook). I throw them in a casserole with some sauce and mozzarella cheese and dinners ready in no time. You can also buy their pasta and sauces at your favorite market. Their website shows what markets sell their pasta. This is a family run business so quality of their product never varies. They have been making pasta since 1947. Their pasta has the perfect chew when eating. After you eat their pasta you will never buy that store brand again!

I just had a little salad with micro greens that are bitter,green pear,snap peas and green onions. Nothing fancy. I drizzled on my new products... OMG GAME CHANGER! Wow! It was like it was sweet. It was tart. It tasted like a Restaurant quality. I'm so thrilled that I get to have this as many times as I want thank you. I don't remember your name the owner but wow I hit the mother lode with this purchase never been so happy, eating a salad.

I stopped by this store one day this week since I happened to be in the area. Upon entering I was…read moreimmediately greeted by one of the owners, who was very welcoming and said to ask him if I had any questions. As the name implies, the store's speciality is olive oil, and you can sample a wide variety of oils and vinegars. If that's not your forte, don't worry because the store has plenty more to offer. I spent a long time just browsing the store because it's beautifully arranged. Even though it's fairly small, they make good use of the space. You can get locally made ice cream and honey, as well as kitchenware imported from all over the world. I found a very cute Christmas gift for my mom. There also sell cheeses, spices, teas, hot sauces - a lot more than I can list. Easily accessible whether you're driving or using public transit. There's street parking in many places along Beacon Street and the shop is right next to the Summit Avenue stop on the C branch of the Green Line.

Easiest 5 stars ive ever given. We were here for a raclette and fondue class that was after hours,…read moreso we were able to shop with no one else in the store!! I loved the cheese. Staff was so kind and answered all of our questions. I left with many many things of cheese! We tried the cookies and chocolates, some premade goods, some shelf-stable things, and of course, cheese. My one complaint was that they did not heat up raclette for us, rather gave us raclette cheese at room temperature. I think it wouldn't have been too much to ask for it to be cooked, since they were able to do that with the fondue. I wish there was a way to do the class without the wine pairing and save a few dollars... I would sign up much more often!!

There were a lot of options for food and it was hard to decide! They have everything from Shakshuka to their "croffle"! ( croffle- croissant waffle with different toppings) We shared a Nutella and hazelnut croffle, and had omelets. The croffle was incredible- very decadent- and the omelets were very generous with their portions and had toast and home fried potatoes! It's a small spot, but doesn't feel crowded at all overall great experience and would come back!

The cutest little cafe I've ever been too! I found this on…read moreYelp and was ready to try after seeing the menu. On a Sunday morning , once checked in we got seated within 5 mins ( lucky us ). Once seated in this little cafe, our server immediately greeted us and got our drink order. I had to flip a coin as all the coffees sounded amazing. I went with a hot caramel macchiato and probably the best I've ever had and I'm a coffee junky 10/10. Then the food - holy wow ! The tables around us had me drooling and then our food came and it was so good! Portion was huge and we left so full. The western omelette was HUGE and came with a side of home fries and your choice of bread. I decided on sour dough which was very good. Strawberry pancakes looked like the viral fluffy pancakes and covered in sweet strawberries. If I lived here, I'd come every Sunday ! I loved the ambiance, the tiny space and the food and coffee . 10/10

Carlo's Cucina is a small hole in the wall restaurant serving up some really good food! We stopped…read moreby on a Saturday night and were seated immediately. Cozy spot, a bit squished but not soo much. The bread was really good. Some of the best bread I've had before a meal. Warm and just a little crunchy on the exterior. Our food came out in good time. We got a chicken parmigiana and a seafood pasta dish. Both were delicious. I've came here because I saw all the good reviews and recommendations, and was not disappointed!

Noticed Carlos Cucina on Yelp and decided to give it a try…read more It is a bit of a pain to get to, not right off the highway. Finally found it thanks to navigation. The parking is a bit tricking as it is in a downtown area and there is just parking on the street. Finally found parking not too far away. It is a rustic and pretty small restaurant. We were greeted right away and sat a table. It was rather late, so we just decided to order our entrees. I ordered Chicken Marsala and my husband Veal Parmesan. Entrees came in pretty short order and both entrees were huge! Veal and chicken were very tender. Sauce delicious. We got side of pasta. Very, very good. Worth the ride. We will definitely be going back!

I would go back just for that - crispy + slicing with scissors adds a whole other feel to it. I feel in control of my flatbread. Calamari was good but I'd choose the flatbread over anything. Can't go wrong with fig, goat cheese, and prosciutto. Emma didn't like the dill on there but I didn't mind. Enjoyed with a nice glass of white wine while we dined outside.

Parking in the area can be a bit tricky, but it's super convenient to get to via the Green Line, which made it easy overall. For food, everything was delicious: The Romaine & Kale Caesar was good, though I wish it had whole anchovies for a little extra punch. The prosciutto bruschetta was incredible, definitely a standout. The crispy cauliflower was my favorite dish of the night, so flavorful and perfectly cooked. The rigatoni bolognese was solid and comforting. The Chianti-Marsala braised beef short rib was insanely tender and cooked perfectly (just wish there were a few more mushrooms!). Also have to mention the dirty martini was so good. Overall, such a great spot with a fun vibe, amazing service, and really tasty food. I'll definitely be back!

I traveled over an hour to get to this shop, as I had a recipe that required a flour that I could…read moreonly find at this shop. The price online was $6.50, but the gentleman at the counter charged me $8.95. When I asked about the discrepancy he said that online price was wrong. I travelled all that way so I paid the price that he gave me. I went to the website after I left to double-check, and I am still able to purchase it online for $6.50, so I don't think he was being honest. There was none of the flour that I was requesting up front, so he went to the back to get it. The bag he gave me is unlabeled, so now I am not even sure if I got the correct product, since I can't trust him. I was so happy to support a local business, but feel very taken advantage of. I can't speak to the quality of the products, they may be very good, but I can tell you that being lied to, does not feel great and does not make me want to come back to this shop.

The food is absolutely delicious and clearly fresh. I got the Shrimp Scampi while my friend got the tortellini with cheese and added shrimp. Honestly, everything was so tasty and flavorful, plus the portions were huge for a terrific price! I was so excited for my leftovers the next day. They were super accommodating and provided great recommendations as well. The pasta sauces were incredible -- my friend ate the bread with the sauce and said it was heavenly. Major shoutout for the great service provided by Jimmy as well, he was so friendly and caring! It made this meal feel extra homey. (He even packaged my pasta to go for me to make sure I didn't spill on my dress I was wearing). Definitely recommend giving this spot a try and supporting a small business!

I ordered the 'famous chicken cheesesteak' which is a hot sub comes with onions peppers and mushrooms. I asked for no cheese and it actually worked this time because a previous time it still had cheese despite the request. Sandwich was good - bread was soft and the shredded chicken meat was plentiful. Veggies were a bit on the lighter side. I ate half of the 12 inch sub for dinner and saved the other half for the next day. Hubs ordered one of the cold cut sandwiches with ham and turkey supposed to have tomatoes- but there were no tomatoes. :( He thought the sandwich was okay. Saved his half for lunch leftovers as well. I would give a 3.5 stars for the missing ingredients. Overall okay experience, will try some other sandwiches next time.
