Pasticcio

The spot formally known as Franco Zeppi's, is a hidden gem throughout the Canton restaurants. Like a good batter, Pasticcio menu hits to all sides of the field. This family kid friendly restaurant, hits a grand slam every time we eat there.

 The Food: One thing for sure, you can not go wrong with the pizza. This thin crusty, tangy sauce, fresh mozzarella cheese should be one of the best pie's in Baltimore. This place has become a family favorite for pizza. We actually had my oldest son's second birthday at the Pasticcio in Parkville, Md. Who would not love a pizza party for a 2 year old. When it comes to calamari, my wife and I are very critical. Canton Dockside used to have pretty good calamari, but it has since taken a back seat to Pasticcio. The Pasticcio Italian cold cut, is an excellent choice. Every entree I have had in the past was excellent also. The only thing I was disappointed in, was the french fries. In addition to your common Italian dishes, Pasticcio offers a variety of daily specials.

The Service: Never had any problems with the service at either Pasticcio locations. One evening picking up carryout, I had a conversation with the owner. I told him, how this is our favorite pizza place in the city.

 Overall: Large dining area located in the Canton Can Company. Very family and kid friendly. Don't let the other pizza places fool you, Pasticcio has one of the best pie's in the Baltimore metro area. Plenty of parking. You can dine in or outside.
