Excellent food with good service. Arrive early so not to wait on line. Family of 6 enjoyed the fried ravioli, eggplant parmigiana, mussels in wine and fried mozzarella appetizers. Garlic knots were amazing along with a family sized salad bowl. Dinners included sea scallops with linguine in a garlic butter sauce, shrimp parmigiana, cannelloni, lasagna , ravioli and scungili with linguine served in a rich tasty tomato sauce. All dinners were great typical home style Italian dishes. Special note ask about the desserts they were stupendous.

I'm a native to Franklin. And love giving back to my town and to local businesses. I have ate here plenty times before mostly carryout. Finally decided to dine in. Immediatley noticed a hateful attitude on the owner (Vito's). He asked for our drinks then didn't return for 10 mins. All the while arguing with someone on the phone while customers could hear him. Once we got our food he acted as if it was a problem to get us extra napkins. Food was good. The lady working with him looked a little tense. It was very awkard and we won't be back. I'm sure he can't keep help due to how he treats people. Put a smile on your face or go home!

We've eaten here twice, and I've got nothing but positive reviews. We've had excellent service both times, and the food was exceptional. The pita appetizer may be one of the absolute best things I've ever eaten. It's massive, so it feels more like an actual meal, but worth every single calorie! Very affordable, especially considering the ginormous portion sizes.
5. L'Italiana

Love the pizza. If you are looking for something different then the usual this is the place to try. If you like sandwichs try the grinder. The new owner has really made this a must try. Oh and the beer is ice cold.
