Frankie Primo's +39

Frankie Primo's +39 (the suffix refers to Italy's telephone calling code) features specialties from owner Jay Manno's ancestral homelands of Sicily and Campania served in an old-school, Little Italy-esque ambience where exposed brick abounds and the tin ceiling is original to the building. The menu boasts a wide range of brick-oven pizzas, pasta dishes (including the Roman specialty cacio di pepe, the only place in Buffalo where you can find it), sandwiches on house-baked ciabatta bread, and main-course salads (particularly interesting is the cavolo toscano, a huge mound of kale topped with currants, toasted pine nuts, pecorino romano, and lemon vinaigrette) at prices that aren't half bad considering the ample portions. An encyclopedic wine list is the cherry on top.
