Just up the street from Casa Linda, Alfonso's, named after proprietor Peter Columbo's father, has been pulling in the neighborhood crowd since 1991. The shiny black-and-white checkerboard floor, fresh flowers on the tables and color photos of Italian street scenes set the mood for a cozy, enjoyable dining experience. For starters, we sampled an ample platter of antipasti--peppers, pepperoni, cheese, tomatoes and garlicky olives--before moving on to hot garlic rolls and rich minestrone. The chicken Marsala entrée is sautéed in white wine and served under a heap of buttery mushrooms. Most entrées come with a generous side of pasta (your choice) and spicy-sweet tomato sauce. Wind up with the icy cappuccino pie--one slice divides nicely for two.
