Caligiuri's Patio Pizza & Restaurant
262 Lake Ave.
St. James, NY 11780-2222
631-862-7475
Three generations of Caligiuris (pronounced Cal' a jeer' ee) work the 60-seat restaurant and pizza parlor where chicken francaise and chicken cisco - sauteed with mushrooms, spinach and onions - are favorites with the regulars. Cannolis and rice pudding are homemade. It has a full bar and reservations are recommended on weekends. Kids get crayons and coloring books to keep them busy and there's a brisk pizza takeout and delivery business where the two-crusted, stuffed meat pie is an oft-ordered item. Family patriarch Dillo is the chef and keeps the place running with the help of about nine relatives. Open 7 days.
