My favorite places have always been Parkside and F and J Pine, long before I knew of any mob connections with any restaraunt... my parents would take me there after a day at at the bronx zoo when we were kids.

i have to say it was very average fare but far and away the best bang for your buck in the bronx, maybe even the whole city.
used to meet up with the fellas at the gran cafe then head off to ActIII Every saturday night. never understood why "Pizza Time" had such bad pizza.
