I think it is up in one of the strip malls on 98.

I have never eaten there or heard a review of it from a friend so I don't know if it's great or not.

Many of the reviews seem to use the same phrases and read more like promos than actual reviews.

Go eat there and report back.

It's on the north side of 98 in the same strip mall as the Steamboat Bar and Don Pedros.  Its actually in the same place Guglielmo's used to be.   Chef/owner Chris Chirum has been around the area for 18 years (Elephant Walk) and he has done a fine job with the decor, service and food.   Its our "go to" neighborhood place for Italian.  We have tried everything from the whole snapper to the pastas to the pizza and have never been disappointed.  Check out the website  meatballssrb.com

Please rate it if you've tried it. Used to be Guglielmo's then it was another owner briefly. I've heard it is quite good. Let us know.
