About Mondo Italiano

Dine. Enjoy. Repeat.

Who We Are?

Jennifer DeBow, Mondo Italiano partner, knew exactly what she wanted to do when she conceived of the restaurant — she longed to capture the flavor of the East Coast Italian American food that she had enjoyed during her childhood in Manhattan.

"I put together the menu based on the dishes I used to eat in New York City," she said. "Each item has been taken from a specific restaurant."

One of the best tiramisu we have ever had. The custard was subtle and the lady fingers were not over soaked. Worth a stop for dessert.

This is a good Traditional Italian restaurant if want pasta or pizza. The Marinara is very good and the pasta is very good as well. I believe it is made in house. The pizza is good but the special pizzas are over-priced. They have a nice wine selection but the better wines are over priced by the glass. I wish they would learn how to make cheesy garlic bread. Theirs is mushy as if they microwaved it. The service was good. The gelato bar has really old gelato so avoid it.

Great food! Great prices! Live piano music. The service was a little slow though. My husband and I must have waited a long time for our food. Because the waitress said she tried to get our meal comped, but her manager was being difficult. So she got me some free gelato. I ordered the chicken parmigiana, and my hubby ordered the spaghetti. Both were so delicious! They also have delicious fresh bread! Next time I go I will order a pizza, they looked and smelled amazing!
