Wife’s bday is friday and her favorite dish is spaghetti and meatballs. Who has the best red sauce in BR? She has mentioned before that she likes Monjouni’s sauce but I’ve never actually been there.

Ginos or Digiulio. Ginos better for a special occasion.

DiGulio Brothers is my favorite BR Italian, but it is a different atmosphere. I call it a neighborhood Italian restaurant with great food and everyone knows your name..

That’s what I remember about DiGiulio’s. Very cramped and loud but the food was good. I guess I’m looking for something more low key for a birthday meal. Sounds like Gino’s is a winner

Nino’s is quite good too. I like it better than Gino’s myself.

Gino's is great for a special occasion. It's dark, sort of quiet, and she can have a huge plate of spaghetti and meatballs. Absolutely order the Laurence bread. You will love it!

Ginos is the best red gravy Italian place in the state. It’s not even close.

I think Ninos has the best dishes and one of the only places making their own pasta.

I've enjoyed the baked oyster app and the steak over there.
