Today's Deal: Ciola's Italian American Restaurant Deal of the Day

Posted: Sun, 16 May 2010 09:05 AM - 9,169 Readers

$15 for $30 Worth of Traditional, Family Cuisine at Ciola’s Italian-American Restaurant

The best way to capture a wild, rampaging meal is to hook it with a gigantic pasta lasso. Test your throwin' arm with today's deal: for $15, you get $30 worth of food at Ciola’s Italian-American Restaurant.

The traditional Italian pasta, steaks, and seafood on Ciola’s menu are crafted from family recipes passed down for more than 50 years. While sipping tomato-basil and minestrone zuppas ($3/cup, $5/bowl) and crunching a romaine-founded, red-wine-vinaigrette-drenched insalata di casa ($3/side, $6/entree), the tongue tap dances on a crispy stage. Since Italian eating would not be possible without nutritional noodles, Ciola’s submits various pastas for consumption. Slurp truffle-creamed ravioli al tartufo ($18) or shrimp linguine puttanesca ($16). Steaks and chops ($24–$28), pesce ($18–$22), and plenty of pollo e vitello ($15–$19) promise satisfaction to as many pabulum preferences as there are pizza-shaped constellations in the night sky.

Uncle Dominick Ciola launched the first Ciola’s in 1949 with nothing more than a single stick of uncooked spaghetti and a few cherry tomatoes. Since then, the locally owned business has specialized in offering high-quality service, maintaining a pacific dining atmosphere, and kicking off the day with morning games of marbles played with meatballs in the back parking lot.

Alcohol is not included in the value of this Groupon.
