“ Love love love this place. Good eats! sandwiches are top-notch, try their pasta tonight delicious. I've had their pizza also very good. I've had their coffee in the morning. I've had your Italian cream soda, their gelato's and spumoni. It's a good thing I know where good food is! once I find you, you got a customer for life! I believe the name, has been changed to Buchanan Sweet Shop Café Italiano ”
“ Saw a Facebook posting about their Meatball sub. A half hour away but do love a meatball sub. When it came out i thought it was a little small for the price, but everything is these days. When I cut it, yes, needs a knife and fork, and tasted it, it was absolutely delicious. The meatballs were some of the best I have tasted by far. The sauce and cheese topped it perfectly. Well worth the trip. planning to go back to try a couple of their other subs and go on a Friday evening for their pasta specials. Worth the trip! ”
“ Joe has a great little place, 50s style soda fountain, good pizza, subs are very good. "Take the canoli" exceptional advice here. Any place with Gelato has to be good Friday night gourmet pasta night. ”
“ Food was good and the place was cute! We want closer to closing and they couldn't be more helpful! 5 star! ”
“ Absolutely delicious food, excellent service, and a friendly, welcoming family atmosphere. Not pictured is the cannoli or strawberry shake -- beyond yummy! Best spot in Buchanan MI for a sweet treat or a savoury meal. It was our first time and will definitely be coming back. Thanks to everyone who served us today. 10/10 Would recommend for everyone. ”
“ Stopped tonight to try something different for our take home dinner and not disappointed. Their FB post on their Friday night special mushroom ravioli caught my eye. What a great meal it was. Fabulous My wife is from western NY and has had many cannolis and she honestly said these were the best she has ever had. Will definitely be back. My wife wants to meet the person that made these cannolis. ”
“ This was our first time coming here, but just for an ice cream date. The staff was friendly and inside was super cute, they decorated with old-timey pictures and statures to really make it feel like an old ice cream shop, there is even a bar to sit at. The ice cream was great, fantastic sundae. We didn't get the gelato but tasted it and it was very good. We will be back to try the food and pasta night! (The sandwiches looked delicious). ”
“ My partner and I decided to do a day trip to MI! We ended up in Buchanan! So happy we did!! This place was such a pleasant find!! Not only were they open on Easter but the owner was so nice and caring! There's plenty of seating options! We opted for the chicken pesto and the Bianca pizza!! Both were amazing!!! I personally loved the pesto but try both! We finished with a double scoop cone of their cookie's & crème and moose tracks! ”
