This is on the way to Block Island ferry and both Scarborough and Roger Wheeler beaches. Not a fancy place, but delicious authentic home made Italian food, mostly made by our friend Sandy. Our daughter Emma used to work there in the summers before she moved away for school. Delicious meatball and eggplant subs! Pizza, Stromboli, and garlic knots are so yummy too!!! Try the soupy pizza, it’s family made Italian cured sausage!!! You can definitely get things to go for the beach or ferry ride. Delivery not always available right now due to shortage of staff.
