PICK OF THE WEEK:

ITALIAN DELIGHTS

4348 E. Craig road at North Lamb Boulevard, 476-6300

Pizza is delightful. So is Italian wedding soup with spinach and meatballs, chicken parmigiana and linguine with clams. Therefore this is a perfect name for a restaurant that lives up to its claim. All traditional pizza toppings are available, along with specialty pies such as veggie, white (ricotta, mozzarella), margherita and Italian Delight with mozzarella, roasted peppers, artichoke hearts and fresh basil. You can also order pan or stuffed pizzas. Featured entrees are rigatoni with sausage, ziti with meatballs, linguine marinara with mussels, fettucine Alfredo, manicotti, chicken Marsala, lasagna and chicken francese with capellini. Among the hot and cold subs are turkey and cheese, sausage with peppers and onions, eggplant parmigiana and Italian Delight with ham, salami, pepperoni and provolone. Popular appetizers are garlic knots, garlic cheese bread, pasta fagioli soup, chicken Caesar salad and fresh sliced tomatoes and mozzarella with basil, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Desserts are tiramisu, cheese cake and cannoli. Daily lunch specials ($7.99) are served 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and a Family Friday Night all-you-can-eat buffet ($9.99) is 5 to 10 p.m. Pizzas begin at $9 and subs at $7.95.
