Kansas City's Avelluto family has been in the local restaurant business for decades. Their Italian Delight is an expansive deli known for New York-style pizza - topped with tomato sauce and mozzarella, plus additional toppings placed on top of the cheese. Unusual gourmet choices include Polpette, a combination of mozzarella and Parmigiano Regianno, luscious San Marzano tomatoes, fresh basil and olive oil and sliced meatballs or Portobello, with meaty mushrooms standing in for meatballs. Plenty of customers also build custom slices or pizzas. But there's more to Italian Delight than pizza. Whether savoring a single meatball, Chicken Parmigiana, Calamari in Marinara or a meal-sized Caprese salad, visitors always depart full and satisfied by this Italian comfort food.
