More than 70 years in the doughnut-making business ensures this franchise's doughnuts are top notch. You can never go wrong with their signature Original Glazed. Look for their signature Hot Light the next time you drive by there. When the light is turned on-- during certain hours of the day and night--it means that the Original Glazed yeast-raised doughnuts are right out of the oven. Hot and delicious!

Fans of real, authentic Italian should look no further. The pasta is made from scratch and all meals are made to order just the way you like. The menu has been passed down through generations, so you're going to find dishes here that you won't find anywhere else around town. Sample a couple of the house specialties such as the black pasta, which is whole wheat pasta, scallops, calamari, shrimp and mussels in an Italian sauce. Molto Bene!
