Lunch at Italianni's Gateway

My sister and I love pizza, I cant remember a time when we were at high school that we didn't order and have pizza delivered from Domino's on weekends. (I wonder what happened to Domino's Pizza?) But now we usually eat at the same places always like Pizza Hut, Yellow Cab and Shakeys so we decided for a change to eat at Italianni's restaurant and see what real Italian pizzas taste like.

It was lunchtime so there weren't may customers that time. There were just me and my sister and this other group of people across our table. 

                                                         Foccacia Bread  
After ordering our food, we were served with Foccacia bread with a plate of balsamic vinegar-olive oil dip. Perfect dish to eat while waiting for our food, it reminded me of Pizza Hut where instead of Foccacia bread, they served breadsticks. 

                                    Parmesan Crusted Fish Fillet (Lunch) P395
It didn't took long for our dishes to arrive, mine was the Parmesan Crusted Fish Fillet. It is a white fish fillet coated with parmesan cheese served with caper sauce, mashed potatoes and buttered vegetables. Theres a regular version which is good for 2 persons at P595. The Fish FIllet was juicy and so yummy and  especially with the caper sauce. I finished the whole dish except for the vegetables which I didn't like.

                                            Seafood Cioppino (regular) P395
My sister ordered the Seafood Cioppino, the dish included some mussels, shrimps, clams, calamari and linguine in red wine and tomato sauce enhanced with basil pesto. Theres also a regular version for 2 people to share for P595.The name of the dish sounded good, and it did  taste even better. This was the only picture that I had of the pasta because the presentation was so good that my sister got excited and ate some of the pasta already.

                                                       Classico P495
Now for the pizza, we didn't know what should we order so we decided for the Classico for the menu said that it is their specialty. The pizza had Italian sausages, mushrooms and peppers with mozzarella and romano cheese. The pizza was very delicious! The thin crust was so good and the flavor of the sauce and romano cheese on top made it even better. A real Classic Italian pizza indeed. 

Final Thoughts
The staff were very attentive and accommodating. We didn't had any troubles during or lunch experience at Italianni's. Great Pizza and Pasta at prices that are reasonable. Expect for me and my sister to come back to taste there delicious pizzas. 


Buon appetito!
