| - Mineo's Pizza has become a favorite of our daughter and son-in-law. On a recent visit, they wanted to introduce us to the restaurant. Mineo's is loctaed in a three-bay storefront. Each bay has its own entrance and characteristics. The first is for carry-out orders at a counter, though there is some seating. The middle is desserts, ice cream, cheesecake, cannoli and tiramisu. The third is the main dining area with a full bar and television screens.
We sat in the third area for table service. Mineo's was crowded and we needed to wait a while for a table to clear. Then we had to pounce on it before another party, just coming in the door, could take it! Mineo's has traditional thin crust pizza as well as deep-dish "Sicilian" pizza. Julia and Frank waned deep dish. So, we ordered a John's Special with pepperoni, mushroom, onions, green pepper and sausage toppings. A tossed salad to start. (The salad arrives in a large bowl to be shared.) The pizza took a long time to arrive, but it was delicious! It is served in a rectangular shape. I could only manage one slice before I had reached my limit. Our millenials had more, but there was still plenty for them to take home for later.
I definitely want to return, but think I would prefer to try the thin crust pizza.
