I don't know whether there is a trend for Italian restaurants to open up in old bank buildings... but Aiello's is not the first place I have been to that appears to be located where and old bank use to be.
I started hearing about this place a year ago when it opened. I finally got around to going yesterday for a co-workers birthday.
I have been to a couple of really fancy restaurants and I have been to dozens of Italian restaurants. Aiello's is some where in between...
I LOVED the bread arrangement. Two types of very tasty warm bread, with either vinegar and oil or a chili oil mix. Both very tasty.
The Famous Spaghetti and Meatballs were recommended to me and so I had to partake, mostly because there were a lot of really tasty looking items on the menu and the fact that the meatballs were top recommendation made me raise and eye brow.
I wasn't let down. The meat ball was a mix of pork and beef, cooked to what I would call was perfection. The Spaghetti was not too strong, but had really nice flavor. I ate one of the two fist size meatballs and took the other one home to my wife.
I want to go back and try about 10 other things on the menu, mostly the Gnocchi looked lovely and some of the salads. I am also super interested in the limited pizza orders that they do for take out nightly.
