Vince's for Spaghetti
Locals come here for massive plates of spaghetti, meatballs, pasta, and bread. What most miss, however, are the great French dip sandwiches which were served here long before the spaghetti. Under $10 per person.
A more budget friendly menu featuring entrees in the $10-$16 range is served in the lounge and veranda daily until 8PM.
