D'amico & Sons

My children love the soup and pizzas and I love the price and quality of the food. Great place to get good food in a casual and comfortable space - you never feel rushed but you can get in and out easily.

Ever wondered what it would be like to dine inside Restoration Hardware? Wonder no more. Don't get me wrong--I like it, but found it a bit odd and caught myself looking for price tags and mule chests. We went early on Saturday night. The ceaser salad, chicken parmasean and mushroom pasta were garden-variety--about what I'd make at home for myself, but I would do better if I were cooking for company. Our meals came with seven fat slices of bread--1 with the salads, 2 more with the entree, and 1 on the kid's plate. Seven. Who eats that much bread? The chianti was thin. Very nice staff. Kid-friendly--and kids eat free on Sundays. Itwas busy but not overly crowded. Overall, D'Amico's has a casual approach to both food and atmosphere--no substitute for a full-throttle Italian dining experience.

My remarks about the D'Amico in Edina apply to this take-out branch as well. I can't say that this is world-class Italian, but it is carefully prepared and the concept is unique. I think one cannot compare it to regular Italian restaurants: it is classy fast food.
