Cafe Veloce

Not a 5 star restaurant!

by gailflig at Citysearch

My husband and I decided to try Cafe Veloce because of the high praise it got here. We went on a Saturday night and it was so crowded and noisy, I couldn't wait for the meal to be over. They have as many tables as they can fit in the space. The food wasn't anything special: really bland and uninteresting. I would not go back. Maybe this is a good restaurant compared to others in the suburbs, but I'm sorry, I have higher standards.

• Cons: noisy as hell

I've always enjoyed my time at Cafe Veloce. I like the barbeque pasta. Big menu. Kids are ok to bring.

• Pros: Good pizza and pasta

Love the Food!!!

I love their pastas! My favorites are the Clams Giulio, Chicken Scampi, Caesar Salad, and Tiramisu! This is more of a casual place with an unexpected motorcycle theme. Guess the owners really love motorcycles. Different but the food is Great! The wait staff is very friendly and do a great job.

• Pros: Food, Service, Value, Parking

This place is the BOMB

by bourush at Citysearch

My husband and I use to come on dates here before we were married. The first time we went, I had the chicken scampi and in the 9 years we have been dining at Cafe Veloce, I have only tried one other thing. (which was also excellent)! We have brought so many friends to try it and they are all addicted now too! The staff is so kind and even the owners sons who are little skater boys treat everyone wonderfully!

We always start to look for a new Italian restaurant...but always end up right back at Cafe Veloce! Try it...absolutely wonderful!

• Pros: FOOD, PORTIONS, STAFF
• Cons: nothing

Great food

by iloveclams at Citysearch

I went many many years ago for the first time with friends and ordered the Pasta Formaggio and have been hooked since. Someday I suppose I should order something new. I have always ordered the same thing everytime I've been there. Cool atmosphere, great food, good service.

Delicious food

by jennifred at Citysearch

This is the first restaurant my husband and I have visited in our new neighborhood, and it made for a great welcome. The food is wonderful (kind of Italian with Greek influences), the atmosphere is laid back, and the prices are completely in line with the offerings. We will definitely be returning.

(BTW, we went with my extended family, including two small children, and everyone enjoyed their food. The children's pizzas are huge though: they could easily have shared one.)

• Pros: Food, Ambience

Orleans Italian

by janillb at Citysearch

Very good casual, family friendly restaurant. Calamari is very good, and not fried. Minestrone is very good with a bit of a New Orleans twist. Good service from this family owned restaurant. Very interesting Italian vintage racing motorcycles on display. Check out the motorcycle races on the TV's (It's actually a video game, amazing!)

• Pros: Inexpensive, Tasty, Big menu
