Description

This unassuming little brown brick building on Leeland, just east of downtown, has been serving hearty Italian-American meals since 1975. Frank and Debbie Mandola are still there most days, but their son Joseph has mostly taken over now and is always ready with a handshake and a smile for his customers. The popular lasagna and Italian beef sandwiches are now available at dinner, too, as the restaurant no longer just serves lunch. Even better: The Mandolas have an excellent and well-priced selection of Italian wines and beers to go along with your dinner, too.

Wonderful down-home atmosphere. In addition to the delicious spaghetti & meatballs, lasagna, po'boys, etc., the Faccia Di Vecchia is to die for. Pasta Mandola is a must-try also - penne, chicken & mushrooms in a delicious creamy sauce. We have Mandola's send lunch to our customers (often groups as small as 10 or as large as 60), and always get great feedback about it. They can handle much larger catering jobs than that, however. It's the place to get Italian home-style cooking that my mother never cooked!

Poor me. I drove by Mandola's Deli for eight years without stopping. And no wonder: the blank brick facade of this windowless East End lunch spot seems hooded. Inscrutable. Grimly closed off. Inside, however, waits a knotty-pine universe bustling... More »
