If you’re looking for a great Italian meal, Jim and Pete’s, 7806 W. North Ave., will not disappoint.  This longtime staple of Elmwood Park’s Restaurant Row has earned its customers loyalty with a menu that features Italian classics made with fresh and often, locally sourced, ingredients.

The family-owned restaurant was founded in 1941 by Jim Sorce Sr., and his brother-in-law Pete Pizo, the inspiration for its name. Though it changed owners in 1999, it has stayed true to its mission of bringing the finest Italian cuisine to locals and visitors who walk through its doors.
