Not the greatest spot for a lunch as the food from the buffet is extremely heavy

BUT. Still a Very nice Italian buffet consisiting of salad, Italian bread, soups, various pastas, lasagne, meatballs and a decent variety of clams, shrimp and mussels. Also they have two homemade cakes available, which were delicious.

Price is right at $8.99 per person and about an additional $2 for a soft drink.

Service is really good and the restaurant is clean.

The downer. The surrounding neighborhood is extremely ghetto!

TOPOLINO'S get a 4 star from be simply because as (Jed L. stated) they are truly a Mom & Pop Italian Bistro that serves VERY GOOD comfort food. I went there for the 1st time a few years ago and was skeptical because 1. the location & 2. the authenticity of the food......

Little did I know I was in for a rude awakening because the food was OFF THE HOOK, AWESOME, VERY TASTY, AND VERY INEXPENSIVE!!!!!!
Don't overlook this spot because you will be missing out on some good food!!! It may be the most "OFFICIAL" Italian Restaurant but it serves it purpose!!!

They have an Awesome Buffet that they open after 5:00pm which has some of there favorite dishes on it (Pizza, Spaghetti, Shrimp Alfredo, and many more.....) for only $15.00 - VERY GOOD AND WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! Outside of the Buffet have some excellent menu selection that come served with a nice helping of food...you will be taking food home to go!!!!

Oh and I can't forget the best part...the CUSTOMER SERVICE here is OFF THE CHAIN....these are some of the most nicest people I have ever encountered....(now if you encounter something different don't blame me...LOL) but I have gotten nothing but the best from this place!!!

I love this place for it is.....

OK my wife's family is Italian, so I know good Italian food. The food was OK. Service was great. We have been twice, only because I don't know where else I can find a proper pizza. The buffet is over priced. We will go back.

Wow! I'm so glad we found this place. I hate buffets but this one was very fresh as they only put out a little at a time so the entrees don't sit around for very long. From crisp salads, pizza and pasta carbonara the 8.99 is well worth it. If the buffet is this fresh and tasty I can only imagine what the made to order dishes are like. I also like the decor is clean and homeny.

Topolino is a local ma and pa business that serves comforting Italian dishes. While I've had better Italian food at more upscale places, Topolino still manages to satisfy and please at an affordable budget. They offer a wide variety of Italian dishes from simple spaghetti dishes to more lavish dishes such as the Zuppa Di Pesce. The Zuppa is one of the restaurants top selling dishes. It consist of a generous amount of mussels, scallops, shrimp, and clams on top of your choice of pasta and sauce. Try it with linguine and the white clam sauce. So yummy! A personal favorite of mine is the eggplant parmesan. It's quite possibly the best eggplant parmesan I've had. Most places I've had eggplant parm come with little tiny thin slices of eggplant. At Topolino, they give you hearty whole slices of eggplant. Every entree comes with a house salad and addictively delicious cheese bread. The desserts here are not great but not bad either. If you are looking to satisfy your sweet-tooth try the chocolate cake with strawberries and cream. Not too bad! Topolino also offers a tasty lunch and dinner buffet as well as Sunday brunch. Sunday brunch attracts the Jesus crowd so come early if you don't want to wait too long.
