PARISI Pizzeria, Deli and Trattoria

Of course, the sign read: Parisi – the last i was obscured. Continue reading

3 Sons Italian Food Restaurant In Arvada
3 Sons had been serving fine Italian food on W 44th Ave in Denver for years. Susan and Michael Scarafiotti purchased 3 Sons in March of 2004.

The new 3 Sons Italian Restaurant and Bar opened at 14805 West 64th Avenue in Arvada, Colorado, in June 2009. And it’s a good thing. Not that they moved, but everything is good: the location, the bar, the dining room, the food, the happy-hours, the staff, and the spotless head(s). Continue reading
BUMMER! I drove past this little place the other day and something was wrong. The NEON IS gone and there IS a “for Lease” sign in the window, more later… I’ll be checking to see if there is a new location for this great little restaurant. BC
