I've been to Italy, so I was honestly surprised to find my favorite lasagna right here at home. The…read morelasagna there had this light, fresh quality that I'd never been able to find anywhere else in America...until now. This one had that same light, refreshing feel but with even more flavor. It was hard to explain what I meant to my husband until he tried it and he ended up liking my lasagna more than the calzone he ordered! You can tell they make everything from scratch. We also got spaghetti and meatballs to go, and the sauce tasted so fresh. The cannoli was incredible. I used to make cannoli at a bakery years ago, and theirs had the smoothest, creamiest filling I've ever had. The staff was wonderful, and the owner treated us like an old friend. It's a modest size restaurant with good seating but limited parking,and it's always busy for a good reason. We'll definitely be back!

Having never been here before I was not sure what to get but knew it would be an appetizer. I had originally thought I would get the Caprese after checking out the menu online but while looking at the menu once I was there, the Bada Bing Shrimp stood out. I am so glad I chose that because it was one of the best things I have eaten in a long time. Now, I also ordered a side of the meatballs and they were also delicious. I also had a garlic roll which was complimentary and I'm glad I was only given one because I would have eaten more. This is an older style Italian spot but don't let that fool you because the food definitely shines through.

I love this place! My sister, who lived in NJ for a bit, love a good thick crust. When I called in…read morefor some pizzas she, at first, said she didn't want a pizza because the crust was not to her level of thickness. The gentleman on the phone said they could make one with a thicker crust and she agreed to get the pizza. Let me tell you, she LOVED that pizza. She said it was just right and it reminded her of the ones she use to get in NJ. I order a regular pepperoni pizza and it was delicious!! Since then, I've always order a thicker crust for my sister and regular for me. It doesn't matter what type of pizza it is, the food is always on point and I always recommend to my friends and family.

When I helped my daughter and her family moved to the Middleburg area last July, we were looking…read morefor someplace for dinner on our first night in her new home. We decided on Aspendos and, wow, were we glad we did! Every dish was delicious. As a result, while spending the Christmas holidays with my daughter, I made sure we went to Aspendos and again on my third visit a few weeks ago. While I have fallen in love with their Penne alla Vodka, I have sampled other dishes and found them to be very good, as well (my daughter's go-to is their pesto pasta dish). This is a small operation, run by three members of the same family. If you have a large group you will need to wait awhile for your food, but it's worth the wait. We have some good Italian restaurants where I live in California, but I wish we had Aspendos here!

We were visiting my brother from out of state and this was a must in his eyes and it didn't disappoint. I was told their scampi sauce was an absolute must taste too and it was amazing. The fresh garlic bread tasted like something out of my grandmas home recipe book. I ordered the traditional meat sauce and angel hair pasta. Surely if it was amazing I'd stamp my approval all over this place because it should hold up to my scrutiny and OMG wow!! Definitely as authentic as it gets. The rest of my family picked different meals and the nom nom nom's didn't stop nor did the wow's. The service was impeccable from the hostess, waitress and the live piano player. Very warming environment with a taste of actual traditional recipes. You won't be disappointed. I noticed they also have a catering area for receptions or large parties too so add them to your list for your next get together! Very very well done guys!

We had perfect table touches and everything was nice and hot (or cold) as it should be. Always love this spot - a true hidden gem in Orange park!

She made us feel welcomed from the moment we sat down and checked on us just the right amount to make sure everything was perfect. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. I'll definitely be going back for Pizza! Highly recommend

The restaurant was semi-busy with plenty of tables available. Sports were on TVs and great music as well. We ordered the following: Garlic Knots - Garlicky, but not as garlicky and small as we remembered. They're a lot bigger now and more doughy inside. Honey Garlic Wings - absolutely crispy and tasty. Loved the honey garlic sauce with a little kick of spiciness. Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza - good amount of meats and ranch sauce combination and flavor. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal however, we hoped the garlic knots were smaller to soak up the garlic oil like in the past. The remodeling was wonderful and our server was really nice and friendly.

Well it was lunchtime and I happened to see the restaurant as we drove down US-17 so we flipped a u-turn and pulled into the parking lot. This is a very spacious pizza shop with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating as well as a beautiful bar. We were able to get seated immediately and greeted by our server who welcomed us and went over a few of the specials and menu items before taking our drink orders. We decided on the Buffalo Wings to start which are prepared in their brick ovens and never fried, honestly I was a little skeptical but they were pretty amazing and perfectly cooked, then drizzled with a delicious tangy buffalo sauce and sprinkled with a nice portion of gorgonzola cheese this is something I'd definitely order again. We followed these delicious wings with a pepperoni pizza, sounds simple yes but sooooo good the crust was crispy but remained tender and had the perfect chew, the sauce was really good and the pepperoni and cheese was delicious as well. We arrived about 11:30 AM and the restaurant continued to fill as we enjoyed our lunch - the staff here was very friendly and accommodating and the manger stopped by to thank us for coming in and to ensure everything met our expectations. This is definitely a place I'd return too when in the area, we loved this place...

I personally like the Flyin' Hawaiian, however this last visit, my sister and I decided to share a Carnivore and a Mac N' Cheese Pizza. The Carnivore was fine, but the Mac N' Cheese was my favorite. It had perfectly cooked pasta and it had a lot of flavor. It was very tasty. Service is always very good. We've never had any issues. There is a good amount of parking, so there is no issue there. Really, it's an easy choice to enjoy a meal out where everyone can order something they will enjoy.
