We drove to Lockport two hours from our home to look at a vehicle as we had been car shopping for a new vehicle as our youngest son was working on obtaining a license. It was late and the car search had turned up empty for such a long drive. It was a Wednesday night and late at that. We thought we would stop to this quaint Italian restaurant called Molinaro's to grab a bite before our two hour trip home. We got there and realized it was not accessible for my son's wheelchair. I walked into the front main door and asked about getting into the building, the man behind the counter explained that they were working on that so we decided to get take out. We ordered a traditional cheese and pepperoni pizza with the semi-sweet sauce, some homemade plain cannolis and eclairs. The man in the back (believed to be the owner) could not have been more accommodating hoping we would eat out on the patio but we decided to take our goodies to go, as we had a long ride back. I must admit I'm Italian and my family ONLY likes my sauce, but this pizza was like tasting a little piece of heaven! WOW!!! We were all so impressed. The crust crunch on the outside with the most tender inside with the perfect amount of sauce (crazy they give you four choices of sauce types) old fashioned pepperoni and loads of ooey gooey mozzarella cheese. Again...WOW! What a great pie. Then two slices down for each of us with two slices left we decided to top off this amazing pie with the cheese cannoli. Without a doubt beat my best by a mile. Flaky cannoli shell and filling not too sweet with a hint of citrus and just the right amount of powdered sugar to top it off. I assured the man behind the counter I would try his pizza and if we liked it we would be back. Needless to say I sure hope there are more cars in the area to look at and even not we WILL be back for another of these magnificent authentic Italian pies..... and maybe another dozen cannolis!
