What a fabulous neighborhood gem! How did I not try this place sooner? Eataliano is tucked right…read moreinto the Phelps Luck neighborhood, not far from Route 108 (Old Annapolis Road) and Columbia Palace Plaza. I had heard there could be a bit of a wait, which isn't surprising since this well-established market and deli draws not only local residents but also people from nearby businesses. I happened to be about 15 minutes away, so I placed my order through their website. By the time I arrived, I must have missed the lunch rush--there was no line, and it took just a couple more minutes for everything to be wrapped, packaged, and ready to go. The market itself is intriguing and packed with all sorts of house-made specialties and popular Italian brands. There were also plenty of brands I had never heard of, giving the place the feel of a little Italian countryside market. I can only dream of traveling to Italy someday, so for now, I'll happily get a little taste of Italy here! Parking: As mentioned, parking is very limited. The street alongside the shop was also undergoing some sort of construction during my visit, so be prepared for some roadside limitations. There is a small, intimate dining area with room for only about four tables, but I loved seeing the white-tablecloth treatment. It added such a warm and welcoming touch to what is otherwise a very busy little establishment. The staff were busy but friendly. With the back-of-house operation appearing to be quite busy and working within tight quarters, it was impressive to see how well everyone seemed to coordinate and make the most of the available space. What We Tried Eataliano Crab Roll -- A specialty my daughter had told me about after seeing it on TikTok, and now I understand why! Generously filled with a tender, tasty blend of lump crab meat and fillers. Definitely shareable--but only with your favorite people! 10" Margherita Pie -- A NY-style thin crust topped with fresh ingredients, including tomato sauce, house-made mozzarella, and whole basil leaves. Simple, fresh, and delicious. French Fries -- Crispy and crunchy, just as ordered. Sometimes you just need a good order of fries! Greek Salad -- A generous portion loaded with fresh ingredients: feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, Kalamata olives, carrots, green peppers, and pepperoncini. Fresh, colorful, and plenty to share. Overall, Eataliano is exactly the kind of neighborhood gem I love discovering. Between the market, deli, prepared foods, and cozy little dining area, there's plenty to come back and explore. Definitely worth a visit--and I'm already wondering what I should try next!

Daughter and I split a Caesar salad (huge salad), we did ask for additional dressing. We also ordered the chicken francese, I had it with pasta and she had it with potatoes, husband got rigatoni with some kind of cream sauce, all excellent dishes, including salad. Portions are large, great to have such delicious leftovers. Prices are decent too, not overpriced. No complaints about anything and will be back I'm sure!

When he asked if we were celebrating anything, my husband mentioned it was my birthday (even though I wasn't really in the mood to celebrate. Before we left, Juan surprised me by bringing out a beautiful birthday dessert. He even sang "Happy Birthday," and it honestly meant more than I expected. I had come in feeling a little down, but his kindness, attentiveness, and genuine spirit completely shifted my mood. I walked out feeling so much better than when I walked in--and that's something special. Great service can make all the difference, and Juan did exactly that. Shoutout to him--if you visit Maggiano's in Columbia definitely ask for Juan. You won't regret it.

A friend and I happened into Tino's on a Thursday evening for dinner. Tino's was a favorite of mine…read moremany years ago, so I was excited to return. Unfortunately, this visit did not live up to my memories of the restaurant. We started with the Caesar salad to share. Unfortunately, it was severely lacking in acidity, and the large croutons could have used more garlic and butter flavor. For our entrées, I ordered the Chicken Florentina, while my companion chose the Veal Saltimbocca. The Chicken Florentina did not include the tomatoes or peppers listed on the menu and was instead served over fettuccine with spinach and mozzarella on top. The sauce had a strangely sweet flavor and, although the portion was very generous, the dish overall was lacking in seasoning and flavor. My companion felt similarly about the Veal Saltimbocca, which was also quite bland. Honestly, we were both very disappointed. While the portions were generous, the most flavorful thing we had all evening was the olive oil we dipped our bread into. Unfortunately, I personally would not choose to dine here again. That said, if you prefer very mild or lightly seasoned food, Tino's may be a good option for you. They also offer gluten-free options.

Orders are placed at the counter and you are given a number to place at your table. Orders are brought out to you. My hubby and I came in for dinner and ordered a large pepperoni and mushroom pizza. It took about 15 minutes to make. A little longer than I would have expected since we were the only ones dining in. I did see a few people doing carryout. The pizza looked ginormous, but we managed to eat three slices each with two slices to take home. The pizza was crunchy, but I didn't think it was anything special. I actually prefer our usual pizza spots over Trattoria. On our way leaving, we were acknowledged and thanked, which was nice, but we're unlikely to return.

Dishes seem to be clearly explained on the menu. Most recent visit, I ordered the Stella Note pizza with the cheese bread as an appetizer. The table also gets bread. Heather was our server, and they were wonderful. After our entrees, they'll bring out a dessert sample platter so guests can see the dessert options before ordering. It's purely to look at and not taste. The restaurant has a whimsical atmosphere with dark, sultry lighting and fake vines and string lights draped across the walls and ceiling. From a distance I thought they might be dusty, but up-close they appeared surprisingly well-maintained and clean. I really appreciate that, as dirty/dusty props hanging over my meal are a major turn-off for me. The place overall, seemed very clean and tables set up neatly ready for customers to sit down. The main flag for me is the building itself. There are several uneven points in the flooring to trip over - even some ramps. The dim lighting can make things difficult to notice. Finding the restrooms was confusing even though there were small signs because it was dark. The route via the signs also seemed to lead through the drink area where cups are kept. I feel like that's not very common for restaurants to have you walk through so it made me question if I was going the right way. The ladies' restroom had small tight stalls. I didn't notice any accessible stalls or restrooms. To be fair, it is possible I missed them due to the low lighting. Overall, I would give the food and service 5 stars. The building itself is the reason i have to give an overall 4-star rating. I appreciate how strongly the restaurant remains loyal to its whimsical ambiance while still serving tasty dishes. Eating there reminds me of the cozy 90s sitcom settings for example from Friends or Sabrina the Teenage Witch. At the same time, we are now in 2026 and I think accessibility and ease of navigation are important considerations for customers. The restaurant serves well for me personally, but it may not be as comfortable or accessible for every guest that dines-in.

I grew up with every form of Indian cuisine already on my doorstep. From Goan to the less gravy based Pakistani foods. So I wasn't expecting much, when we needed to book somewhere close to the pavilion. However I was wrong. Everything g we ate was excellent. From the paneer sizzler to the wife's shrimp tika masala. The only criticism would be that we would have loved to have been asked if we wanted another wine. But the place was crazy busy due to the concert nearby. They were rushed. So I'll let it pass.

Inside this small pizzeria, under the faded banners of Naples and the fluorescent sky of…read moredrop-ceiling panels, there is a fire that transforms dough into something transcendent. The 14-inch New York style pie, though humble in appearance, carried the taste of flame--char at the edges, molten cheese stretching like strands of fate itself. It is food born of combustion, where destruction and creation meet in a single crust. To accompany it, the fizz of fountain Pepsi, a sugary abyss that reminds us of how fleeting sweetness always is. Hours later, a paper slip marks another ritual: french fries, five dollars, golden and crisp like relics of a lost civilization. Their shells shattered with the sound of brittle leaves, yielding to a soft, cloudlike core, a contradiction that somehow felt inevitable. Service here is brisk, kind, almost invisible--human hands guiding plates and receipts without ceremony, as if to remind us that in the end, sustenance is a quiet transaction between hunger and its brief relief. On the walls, evidence of solidarity: framed certificates, banners for local teams, support for first responders. In this act of giving back, the restaurant affirms that even within the universe's cold indifference, there are pockets of warmth where community clings together, like sparks refusing to die in the wind. It is a good thing to find such steadfast generosity and flavor in one place.

The eggplant is fried (or deep fried maybe) and has a really nice taste- the caramelized onions have a bit of spice to them and a reddish color and they go well with the Gruyère. The pizza is cut into 4 slices which are huge and floppy, that I need to fold it slightly, but it's still an enjoyable slice. The crust is really nice- usually I don't eat the whole thing but with this it's not overly thick or oily, and the ends are edible instead of being dense blocks of cardboard. The ambience inside is nice and it's best to come by for a pickup in the middle of a weekday when it's empty to get a quick order.
