Lido's, Orlando
I grabbed dinner to go from this old time (they say established in the 70's) Italian restaurant near Numero Uno (Michigan and South Orange) on Wednesday. I had a sausage and meatball parmesan sub with chips for $7. Everything tasted pretty much like it should have. Not great. Not bad. Just regular. The roll was poor. The weakest link. You really can't skrimp on that. It is just penny wise and pound foolish. The ingredients are too heavy to be supported by a fragile roll. The place looks like it is 40+ years old. It's a time warp. Maybe you like the kitsch. The mostly older diners seemed to. It seats about 70 in mostly tables of four. They serve all the old classics and champion an eggplant rolotini they call a Miguel. They do chicken, veal, and sea food a la piccante, parmigiana, francesca, marsala, florentine, spesatini, chablis, cacciatore, pepperoni, and pizziola. They have pasta, soups, salads, steak, desserts, etc. I didn't remember pizza. I'm sure it's an adequate old fashioned Italian restaurant. I suggest it for those who have a superficial relationship with Italian cooking.
