What was the name of the Italian/pizza/spaghetti place close to the church? They had 12 for 4 on Thursday night. It was the first place I drank legally when I turned 19.

I like this thread. Good off-season topic. I've lived in Gville my entire life. So I know all of these places. Lived in a few. Hawaiian Village, Vizcaya, a couple houses off 34th st and Newberry rd. And the Duck Pond.
