I was extremely bummed when Market Bistro closed. Where would I get a great sandwich less than 5 minutes away? But then Aiello's opened here, and on the whole, from a tremendous fan of Market Bistro - from the month it opened - I think it's probably an improvement.
Great people, great food, not just sandwiches (which are absolutely hands down first class. House Salumeria. Jesus H Christ.) but also great pasta and all sorts of other treats, and now pizza!
And I don't need a goddamn fork for the salad I've got forks at home :D
I was there once and there was a very good looking eastern European lady outside having a coffee and smoking a cigarette. Reminds me of being in great places. But five minutes from home.
As a rule I don't go to "burger restaurants" besides Delux, since it's the original, nor do I go to anywhere with a name "X: a YZ" but after I learned that the people behind Aiello's also run Charr, which now occupies the space once home to venerable Market Bistro, I will have a try. That's two very significant personal prejudices overcome, just by the great cooking and good people at Aiello's.
