A family business specializing in a superior selection and variety of top quality prepared and fresh Italian foods and groceries, both domestic, Canadian and imported from Italy. It's a smaller version of EATALY, in NYC, without the large produce section, but they usually have basic veggies that are popular in the preparation of Italian foods. They carry a large selection of prepared Italian antipasti, several imported types of green and black olives and salads, various prepared seafoods , pastas, marinated veggies and fowl, sliced meats and cold cuts, and lots of cut, whole, shredded and grated cheeses, again, both domestic and Italian. They also serve foods to eat on premises in their seated restaurant area or take home, and cater to offices and homes as well. It has been in it's space in the strip center on the SW corner of Oakland Park Blvd and Federal Hwy for over 36 years, although it has been through several changes of names and ownership, including its most recent ownership change within the last few years. It has a large "Regulars" loyal customer base, so such a large number of people can't be collectively wrong. The restaurant section, mostly lunch, draws alot of new folks as well, as any other Italian foods speciality stores within miles are smaller and don't have similar variety. It's next nearest competitor is Bella Monte on East Atlantic Blvd in Pompano Beach, a few hundred feet from the Intracoastal bridge, Also a solid choice when you're further north. The staff is extremely accommodating, and there's also a pretty varied collection of moderately priced wines as well as more expensive popular brands and vinyards, mostly Italian, French, South American, Australian, a few German and of course California's and Oregon's popular regions. You need to try it, And spend some time getting familiar with what they do and what they carry. There are prepared foods and groceries there that aren't sold anywhere else within an hour in any direction.
