PLACES TO EAT, STOP, & SHOP
Savelli's Italian Restaurant Savelli's Italian Restaurant
This authentic Italian restaurant has been around for 17 years and is rated better than average. Located off the beaten track at 3055 Sutherland Avenue, the exterior is not much to look at. We had pizza and the sauce and crust were excellent. Only a few parking places in front. Open for lunch and dinner, but closing hours vary.
