Caruso's Grocery in Pike and Rose is modeled after the classic, Italian-American "red sauce" joint. You know the one: nostalgic photos on the walls , a killer chicken parmesan, Sinatra pouring through the speakers. If you’re looking for modern interpretations of a chef's take on the classics, you won’t find them here. A joint venture from Neighborhood Restaurant Group and Partner Matthew Adler.

    Gotta be honest. I love the place. The food is always outstanding and the portions are so big I always have at least one full meal of leftovers. Plus The kids meals are actual meals and every time we go my kids are willing to try different stuff, which is amazing. Service is always excellent too. Please don't skip going.

    Service is slow and awkward. Took forever to get refills on our drinks. Food had little to no flavor. Gave it a try but wouldn’t come back.

    Hi Lauren, I’m sorry to hear that your experience on Saturday wasn’t ideal. I do want to share that your server was on her very first day out of training, and she was quite nervous—soft-spoken and still finding her rhythm. That being said, we always want to provide the best service possible. We’d love the opportunity to win you over! Please feel free to connect with me here via private message, and let us show you what we’re really about. Kindest, Beau GM, Caruso’s Grocery / Owens Tavern

    They had a couple of big parties going on at the same time we were there and the staff and management and kitchen handled it all with ease. Our calamari was lightly floured and delicious. Highly recommend the alfredo and spicy ragu. The prices are reasonable for the portions and fresh pasta and top ingredients. The menu isn’t large but they execute everything on it so well. The General Manager came over and spoke with us a few times throughout the meal. Was a great experience.

    Excellent food, wonderful service. Definitely worth it. The one small flaw was that the noise level was very high, which made it hard to hear.

    Excellent prefix meal including salad and entree and a dessert for a very low price. They do that on weekdays, not just Valentine's Day. Food tasted great! My go-to place!
