7 reviews for Talluto's Authentic Italian Food
They have a gorgeous Olive Bar and delicious fresh-made ravioli. I need to compare yet to see if they are beter, worse or on par with Superior. Service was attentive and pleassant.
Veal ravioli were 7.79 per pound.
Our go-to spot for fresh pasta. The cases of frozen pastas are drool-worthy. CAN'T beat the meatballs! We buy them frozen in a pack of 6 with sauce- we always joke about "rationing" them out because we never want to run out before our next trip to the Italian Market!
I am obsessed with their fresh cut made to order pasta. I always stick to the Spinach Fettucine. It is amazing. One of these days I need to try something else, but why stray from something that you know is going to be fantastic.
As much as I enjoy homemade food and fresh ingredients, I have not yet attempted to make my own pasta. Instead, I get fresh pasta from Talluto's when I'm feeling extravagant and fancy...it's an easy way to make an otherwise boring pasta dish special. Yes, their egg pasta is delicious, but also be sure to try their whole wheat noodles. They are a little gritter and nuttier tasting than the egg pasta and nothing short of INCREDIBLE.
Also, for someone who usually sticks to the dried supermarket pasta, I was really thankful that Talluto's includes detailed cooking instructions on the inside of the butcher paper they use to wrap the pasta.
Ravioli? Holy Cannoli!
This place carries oives, fresh mozz, oive oil, bread, etc. but I recommend you get all that at Di Bruno's or Claudios.
What you really come to Talluto's for is their fresh pasta. They have freezers that hold their freshly made ravioli, cavatellis, penne and sauces. These are incredible.
HINT: For the adventurous chefs, just ask for a sheet of pasta to bring home, and then cut/mold your own pasta at home! (It will make you feel more accomplished, trust me).
You can only get by on Barilla for so long; eventually, all Italian food lovers find themselves slavering in front of the freezers at Talluto's.
Want designs or pretty colors on your pasta? You won't find any of those fake colors or flavors at Talluto's. Ingredients like squid ink are used to liven up the appearance of your favorite pastas.
Intoxicating smell of briny mixed olives and pungent cheeses upon entering the shop. Incredible pastas, particularly the cannelloni, which has been baked many times with a burgundy wine marinara and topped with fresh mozzarella for a show-stopping meal. Wonderful fresh pasta. Good, tangy buffalo mozzarella. Meatballs in sauce are too salty, an admonition of those who neglected to bake their own. Prompt, friendly service. Highly recommended.
