Little Italy Comes to Orland Park
Pompei Little Italy opened its doors to friends, family and Patch on Saturday.
Pompei has transformed the area once occupied by RC Mulligans in the with an eclectic mix of traditional meets contemporary.
The restaurant officially opened on Monday to the general public. Patch was able to get a sneak peak of what Pompei will have to offer for its anticipated opening.
The extensive menu includes handmade pasta favorites like spaghetti, mostaccioli and lasagna, as well as updated dishes like herb chicken ravioli and spicy rigatoni arrabiata.

Hand-rolled pizza strudels were all the rage with varieties like barbeque chicken, Pompei Italiano, steak fajita, chicken parmigiana and many more.
Rosemary and Ralph Davino are the owners of this new addition to Orland Park's restaurant scene, but they are hardly new to the restaurant business. Pompei on Taylor Street in Chicago's Little Italy neighborhood has been a staple of that community for years.

Kim Dipofi, daughter of the owners, has had a hand in just about every aspect of the Orland Park location and will be an integral part of the restaurant. She said she is "looking forward to doing business in Orland Park and becoming involved within the community."
Stop by and welcome them to the neighborhood, and while you are there, enjoy a great Little Italy-style meal.
