Cosa Buona

THE GET DOWN


The sandwiches are what’s up at Cosa Buona! Yes, the pizza is excellent too.. ooey gooey fluffy crusted, fold over and melt in your mouth type pizza… but the sandwiches! Let’s start there.

I can’t say that one takes precedence over the other, but when you see the chicken milanese sandy coming from across the room, your eye will immediately be drawn there. Your taste buds will soon follow.

Go to Cosa Buona for lunch so you can experience their full sandwich menu. But if you can’t make it then, not to worry. The chicken parm sandy stays on the menu all day long.

The Stepmother should definitely make way to your lineup…followed by the meatballs. The tangy tomato sauce will get you envisioning little ol’ dear sweet Nonna and her wooden spoon, stirring away.

The casual vibe of Cosa Buona makes it a perfect spot for a runner or screamer. The tots will have a ball in the big wooden booths. Now the big wooden booths combined with a cement floor could also cause a slight echo, so if you have a screamer, well, not to worry.

Why? Because the ooey gooey crusty pizza of Cosa Buona will keep any mouth occupied and happy. Cosa Buona is simply a good hang.

For those with little
runners & screamers:

Easily forgiven:

Here, you can forget the fact that it’s your rambunctious child that’s screaming and STILL enjoy most of your meal.

Not promoted, but you should take the chance:

If your toddler is at the stage when an iPad or some other colorful distraction can be used for an un-interrupted 20 minutes, then go for it.

Uh-uh, NO WAY, don’t even think about it!:

I don’t care how cute your toddler is. Pop your head in… turn around… walk away. PERIOD.

No contained area:

A place you cannot leave your toddler alone, not even for a second.

Enclosed, but space is tight:

If YOU can’t fit between the tables then you know you couldn’t catch your toddler if they tried – this isn’t Norm’s.
