    My bestie and I have eaten here twice. The Fettucini Alfredo is so good! They have festive awesome drinks and the prices are great as well. The bread they give before your meal is very yummy, and their canolli's are awesome as well! friendly staff and awesome food will keep us coming back!

    I'll make this quick:

    If you live in the downriver area or find yourself in said area, the Baldo's Special pizza is the best pizza that can be acquired.  

    You're welcome.

    Baldo's pizza is excellent. I used to eat it as a kid, and recently rediscovered how great it is, completely by accident. I ended up there with some friends, after having completely forgotten how good it is. I shall give Baldo's many more happy returns.

    pretty typical for Italian. they have all the dishes you'd expect plus a comfortable atmosphere. Can't remember what I had last time but I don't remember it being a bad experience. I guess if you're hungry and in the area you should try them out. waitstaff is friendly.

    My brother had a recent family event dinner in the back room at Baldo's.  We shared the area with what looked like a baby or bridal shower (all chicks, gifts, etc), but the staff did a nice job of separating the two events with some screens.

    Our family-style dinner consisted of huge pepperoni pizzas, various pastas, meatballs, salad and bread.  Pizza was a rectangular deep dish type, and all components were tasty.  Beef ravioli were good, and their red sauce was quite good.  Meatballs were delicious.  I'm not a huge fan of balls of meat, but the grind was fine and the meat was juicy and very flavorful.  Salad was fresh.  Bread was awesome.  I'm a sucker for good bread, and this was go-oood.  Bread and meatballs were my winners.

    One bummer was that they wouldn't let you take any of the leftovers home.  While I'm not a huge fan of leftovers, I don't like the idea of them throwing the remaining food away.

    This was my first time at Baldo's, which surprises me because I grew up downriver.  I'd go again.  Wonder if you can just order meatballs and bread?

    Wow, I'm totally shocked that Baldo's only has 3 stars. Well, for those of you who want to know the real deal on this place, I grew up 5 minutes down the street from this family-owned Italian restaurant, this was my first job, and my parents have been eating this food since they were 14, so listen up...

    Baldo's is a family-owned restaurant, opened by a mom and pop who have serious Italian accents. The three sons now run the restaurant and they're all sweet guys. I know many of the people who have and do work here still, and they're all good people. Now, onto the food...

    This is Italian done right. Their minestrone soup is crave worthy. The chicken noodle soup is made with ball noodles which is fun and delicious. They have some delicious rolls here. The bread is made in house daily. You can get a loaf of sliced or unsliced bread for about a buck fifty here and it's pure down home goodness. The pizza is awesome. My mom is obsessed with the Baldo's Special. It's pretty damn good. They have subs too, which are great. If I had to guess, I'd say the steak and cheese is most popular, and with good reason. Since I've been away from home, I crave Baldo's steak and cheese. Anyway, everything they make here is great. Broasted chicken is amazing. I also looove their cheese ravioli. It's so perfect. I know a lot of people who love the gnocchi here, however I haven't had it so can't give my opinion. When you order take-out, the salad comes in a cute little take-out container similar to a Chinese take-out box. The cannolis are awesome.

    Parking lot is small and a little cramped. As someone else mentioned, they do cater to parties. They have a backroom set aside for large parties. My family has held a few parties here over the years and they've always been great. They also have delivery service.

    I must say, our area is blessed to have Baldo's!! Love it, been loving it for years and will for many more! Definitely give this place a go. You will not leave hungry or unhappy :)

    Everything I have had here is outstanding! We love their pizza. Good quality toppings and never greasy.

    One of my favorite Italian restaurants downriver. The food is amazing, the service is great, and the atmosphere is nice. This is a restaurant that even if there is a wait longer than 20 minutes, we wait. The bread is so yummy and my favorite dish is the penne with meat sauce. As a true blood Italian I can honestly say this food is the closest I've had to my grandma's  cooking in a long time.

    Everything at Baldo's is good. This place fills up early so either come early or wait until later for the line to go down.

    Pizza is awesome, sandwiches are good, Calamari is very good. It is not an upscale Italian place, very casual but does have a full bar.

    One of the best all around menus Downriver

    Looks like a really nice place from the outside so so when you get inside.  Not impressed with the pizza dough tough outside doughy surface, toppings were generous and tasty.  Knocchi(spelling?) and meat sauce OK nothing special. Waitress was good.
