Burg Restaurant Review 1975
Burg Restaurant Review 1975
Crecco's : Probubly the best known spot in the Burg. Lou's
pride is the fettuchini alfredo. most people remember the
special salad, steak & chops very good. Top notch drinks.
Trionfetti's: Would you believe the best roast pork and
saurkraut outside of Pennsylvania Dutch Country? Campo's:
Don't miss the snapper soup. And don't ruin it with too
much of the very good sherry. Rossi's: The biggest and
best Hamburger in town for less than a buck. Antipasto
alfredo excelllent and the beef cacciatore (only on
weekends) is outstanding. The Keg: All the pasta is
great and the fettuchini alfredo is the best in the
Burg. Peroni's: Some say its the best restaurant in the
Burg. What to order? Just tell George to do it his way.
Marsilios: Great for a family affair. Has more of the
Italian restaurant atmosphere than any place in the Burg.
Good food at reasonable prices. Roman Hall: Another good
food al Italia. Inexpensive. Pasta a specialty. Hudson
Garden: The mussels are tough to beat and the giant
sandwiches (try steak pizziaola or sausage) a meal unto
themselves. Choquettes: Not Italian. But their food
business is growing as they expand. Its good and getting
better. Clin-Mott: This place could be on docks of
Baltimore or Boston. Good seafood in a dilapidated tap
room. The Emory Cafe: New management. The jury is still
out but it should be a good one. LaGondola: Nice
atmosphere. Good food. Great Portions. Johnny Boston's:
In a class by itself. Food excellent prices steep.
Reservations manditory. Almost a private club.

Nailed those restaurants on the head, Mack they may be gone but the aroma lingers.
Hi Joe:)
Amen :)
And Rossi's is still there!
At least it was last summer when I was down from upstate New York.
But I think all of the others are gone, aren't they, Mack?
Ahh ... the Chicken Catch at the Roman Hall ... where the wall murals (at least one) were done by one of the memorable Dads on my street, Gino Greatti, Jr.

Still in the Burg area.
Castillo's, Rossi's, Amici Milano, Papas Tomato Pies, Delorenzos-Hamilton Avenue, Italian Peoples Bakery, Porfirios, Panorama Musicale:)
