Santo's ended up being a slice above the typical Italian Mom and Pop Family restaurant (hooo ! bad pun !).
Set in the middle of a strip mall, rests the restaurant with pictures of random Italian families from the early 20th century on the walls. Parking was limited compared to a typical strip mall.
I had the Gnocchi, [a daily special otherwise not on the menu] which came with a soup or salad for $13. I opted for the wedding soup which had lot of spinach in it, didn't taste salty, and only had one meatball (which I preferred). Its sauce was rich in flavor (a hint of a spice in there) and dense texture, unlike other mom-and-pop family style Italian restaurants' sauces. Most gnocchi that I have had are soggy with a limp outer shell and are hard on the inside: these fortunately were not; they were fluffy dumplings of goodness, cooked evenly throughout.
Although they were crowded, the service was excellent. The Italian bread was fresh and you could see them baking it in the front. This is probably the best experience that I've had a mom and pop Italian restaurant in Northeast Ohio. Very High 4 stars.
