Mondo’s has spent more than a decade proving to James Islanders that good food doesn’t have to come with a big price tag. Back in the early days, they were an outpost in a barren land, serving crusty panini, tasty salads, and incredibly affordable bowls of pasta in a stark strip mall setting to growing crowds of locals. Today, they’ve got more company and they’ve grown up a bit, expanding and improving their dining room, but they have remained a reliable source for reasonably priced Italian fare. The specials board is always full of creative dishes, but we have a hard time not ordering the eggplant parmigiana every time we go. It’s so very delicious. —Stephanie Barna, Dish (Winter 2013)
