| - Discovered this wonderful Italian restaurant while I was wondering around town trying to figure out what I would have for lunch today. I walked in and was greeted and seated almost immediately. A few moments later a basket of very fresh, thickly sliced bread was placed at my table. I was surprised at first that there was no butter (although I'm sure I could have gotten some if I would have asked), but then I noticed that there was oil, vinegar and pepper flakes available at the table to make a dipping sauce.
While I was looking over the menu I was impressed by the selection. There's a wide variety of pasta dishes, sandwiches, salads and specials to choose from. I decided on the Pasta de la Sandra. My order was taken quickly and my dish was served up in about ten minutes; perfect for a working person like me on a lunch break.
The penne pasta was cooked perfectly with a vinegar and oil based dressing and all of the other ingredients (hot sausage, bell peppers, portabella mushroom, tomato, basil and Romano cheese) bursted with fresh flavor. My check came to a little over $10 which I thought was a bargain for the quality of meal that I had.
How I've worked in this town for this long and never heard about this place before is beyond me. I will, with out a doubt, come back to Buon Giorno again and again.
