A nice small gem for italian food!
Location/decor:
- The restaurant is a small little building on the south side of Hwy 7 and it is a bit tough to spot if you are driving by the strip plaza (right by Mr Jerk)
- Due to the size, parking is quite limited
- Inside, you'll find a quaint laid back interior with enough seating for 15 or so people. Great place to chat and catch up without being drowned out by noise
- The kitchen is visible from the counter so you can easily see and smell the great food cooking up.
Food:
- We had a pizza craving and decided to order types of pizza: Napoli and Locale
- Portions were big for individual sized pizzas
- The pizzas had a nice thin crust with chewy dough without being overly thin and dried out. Topping were excellent - I loved my Napoli with anchovies, mozzarella and tomatoes. The Locale was very tasty as well with big slices of proscuitto and buffalo mozzarella. Both were a definite hit.
- We didn't get a chance to try the sandwiches or pasta but while we were waiting I could see him cooking the pasta and it smelled great.
In general, Cucina is a great little Italian gem that makes for a casual dinner with tasty food. Prices are very reasonable and we will definitely return to try the rest of the food.
