| - Grande is a casual Italian eatery with linoleum floors and bright red booths lining the walls. The pizza is good, and reminds me of pizza I ate as a kid...neither thin nor thick crusted, with a simple red sauce and just the right amount of cheese and toppings. The salads are made with iceberg lettuce, but I still like them...again, a bit of a throwback, but fresh and tasty, with a good italian dressing. I've had the lasagne and that's good too; nothing to write home about, but satisfying. The menu is straight-forward and uncomplicated, and sometimes I'm in just the right mood for this type of somewhat nostalgic food. Service is always good here, hitting just the right note between friendly/relaxed and professional. People return here, and the staff remembers them, so it has that neighborhood feel that so many places are missing. I've ordered my food to go on a few occasions, but the food always tastes better when I sit down and order in, probably because I just like the vibe here.
