Lino's Ristorante & Pizza
Lino's Ristorante & Pizza keeps its decor simple---booths and tables with checkerboard tablecloths. Its menu, though, mixes traditional Italian dishes, including veal and seafood, along with a create-your-own pasta menu which allows diners to choose from seven different and a half dozen types of noodles. Pizzas make up a bulk of the takeout menu, but the restaurant also offers small pizza appetizers topped by different cheeses, artichoke hearts and vegetables.
