This kind of restaurant is why I wanted to start a blog. Its not a chain, or owned by a famous athlete or downtown on Old World Third Street... it's a little family restaurant that probably hasn't changed in at least 30 years with a comfortable, friendly atmosphere where the staff knows us. The restaurant is called Cataro's Italian Villa, its located at 5641 West Beloit Road in Milwaukee. They must do a lot of business in take out because every time we're there on Friday or Saturday its not packed. You can call them for carry out at 414-545-1520. Now, to the good stuff!! Our trip to Cataro's always starts with a LARGE glass of White Zinfandel for me and a Pepsi for Aaron. Aaron always gets an Italian Salad and we share and order of garlic bread. Aaron said the salad is "good, simple and effective" he's really one for words, huh? The garlic bread is smothered in garlic butter sauce and the bread has just the right amount of crunch. Our pizza order never changes, large with pepperoni and sausage on the whole thing and add black olives to half (Aarons' half). We get the large so we have leftovers for the next morning, only this time Aaron finished his whole half. The pizza is amazing. We're not sure where they get their sausage from but its wonderful. The sauce isn't too sweet, which is the way I prefer it. I think at Cataro's its all in the crust. It's a thinner crust that has enough strength to hold a lot of toppings. Just thinking about it makes me want to dig into my left overs!! Like I've said before, I'm not a professional writer or a critic so you gotta try this one for yourself! I've also heard raving reviews from my in-laws about the Spaghetti which is on special on Tuesdays and my brother orders a side of Meatballs which he thoroughly enjoys. Please try it for yourself and let me know what you thought!!
