vegan authentic italian ! - Edit
i cannot express enough how amazing my experience was at the meatball stoppe. i have never felt like “famiglia” so much at any establishment. the owner literally sat down at our table with us to check on our food and chat. there are 4 vegan meatballs! nearly every pasta(besides filled ones) are vegan and there’s even vegan pesto. this is a small family business that takes such pride in their meals. they don’t have vegan cheese bc the owner “does not like any processed stuff, only real food”. guy fieri has also given this place his stamp of approval! this place is on diners drive ins and dives s26 ep10 (it’s on hulu)

Don’t get the hype - Edit
This place was… not impressive. The meatballs were weird and didn’t go with the sauces they were served with at all. They’re pretty much just spiced lentil balls. The pasta was really good but the sauce on it was meh. I also got sick after eating here (maybe cross-contamination) and they seemed not to actually understand what vegan meant despite it being written all over their menu. I think the server I had was relatively new.

Cross Contamination or maybe not really vegan? - Edit
I got very very sick after eating here. I expressed I was vegan multiple times, I don’t know what was in those meatballs but when I got back home I threw everything up and my stomach was aching terribly.
Read morePros: Owner is very nice
Cons: Cross contamination , “Vegan” options might not really be vegan

So stinking good! - Edit
Chef Isabella is the sweetest thing. She truly cares for everyone who comes through those store doors, and really helped me out. She gave me recommendations, had a fun conversation and made sure I sanitized before coming in😄I had the Nona Fagloli with eggplant quinoa meatballs. Was super duper creamy, had a ton of flavor, and the meatballs were amazing. If you’re not into things that taste just like meat- this is for you! Good flavor depth, texture, and superrrr yummy. Overall, I loved my experience. Food was great. Isabella rocks. Not 5 stars just because it’s not a fully vegan restaurant!
Read morePros: Really yummy food , Lots of vegan options, Big portion sizes

Would give it 5 stars if I could!! - Edit
I ordered three things cause I couldn’t pick and I’m so glad I did !! Got the Eggplant Zucchini Quinoa meatball lettuce wraps, the Vegan meatball lettuce wraps, and the white bean ragu . All of the apps were AMAZING and GLUTEN FREE !! I ate like almost half and I was stuffed I was never a huge fan of meatballs even before switching to plant based, but my family loves the authentic Italian ones so this was an easy place to decide on !! The restaurant was featured by Guy Fieri and for good reason. Literally PERFECT spot if your with an Omni group cause everyone loved what they got ! Highly suggest taking it to-go and heading to the park down the street (Park of the Americas)
Read morePros: Huge portions, Lots of Gluten Free options (clearly marked) , Omni-friendly (vegan options clearly marked)
Cons: Not great seating area

Fantastic - Edit
Despite the name, this cozy restaurant has several high quality vegan options. There are two vegan meatball options. If you are vegan or vegetarian and in the mood for Italian food this is the place to go. Also a great place to go with your non vegan or glisten free friends. Lots of options got everyone. They had live music on the Wednesday we went which was exceptional ! This app won’t allow 5 stars because it is not a fully vegetarian restaurant. Otherwise would give it 5!

Delizioso - Edit
The vegan, gluten free meatballs are truly delicious! I had the Pasta Fagioli with two meatballs, and my wife had the Trio. Both were wonderful. We even had to take some of the Trio home with us.
Read moreOne of the best parts was that Isabella, one of the owners, greeted us when we arrived. We took a table in the front room and had fun conversations with her and her husband Jeff. There was also a big room in the back.
Overall a fun Italian restaurant for vegans in spite of the meat and dairy on the menu.
Pros: Friendly greeting by the owner, Delicious vegan gluten free meatballs, Gluten free pasta available
Cons: Busy intersection
