Restaurant Review: Bambino's Bistro (Auburn)

Restaurant: Bambino's Bistro (formerly Daddabbo's Pizza)
Location: 105 Genesee St., Auburn, NY

On Friday night, my husband and I were searching for a place to eat dinner when I thought of trying out Bambino's Bistro. I am so glad that we did! Our meal was delicious. They served us tasty rolls with butter. To start, we shared the Insalata Italiana (Chopped Arugula, Boston Lettuce, Tomatoes, Onions) and it was very tasty. I then had the Penne alla Vodka ($8.95) and it was delicous. The portion was big enough for me to bring home leftovers for my lunch the next day. My husband had the Bifteak (French Burger - ground sirlion steak, tomatoes, iceberg, red onions, home made mayo & steak fries). He thought it was great!

Everything was fresh and delicious. The menu is very lengthy with tons of choices. They do not have their liquor license yet, so my husband was unable to get a glass of wine (I'm pregnant and not drinking anyway!). We were fine with drinking soda. :) A minor issue was that they gave me my leftovers in styrofoam...I just had to change it over to a glass bowl when we got home. I'm looking forward to going back there soon for lunch with my mom!

Takeout: Bambino's also offers takeout and we ordered food on Monday night. Again, the food did not disappoint. We had garlic knots with sauce, a house salad (mixed greens, roasted red peppers, olives, cucumbers) with a delicious balsamic vinaigrette, and the charcoal grilled Napolitana Pizza (sautéed spinach, white beans, black olives, capers and mozzarella). Delicious!
