Once upon time, there was an unassuming food truck serving up an authentic slice of Italian eats...
After trying their delicious pizza, meatballs, and other tangy treats, I was hooked. I wholeheartedly endorsed them and couldn’t wait to dig into more. The only problem? At the time, I wasn’t reviewing food trucks. My bad.
Fast-forward five years, and that little food truck has transformed into a stand-alone location. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you The Saucee Sicilian, 1807 N. Classen Blvd.
When my fiance and I stepped out of the car, I noticed the acrid scent of fresh garlic wafting through the air, which is always a good sign. It led me to an immaculately gentrified storefront, with its old-timey font evoking thoughts of the old country—a place I’ve sadly never been but, of course, would love to visit.
Through the glass door and seated at a nearby table, we happily placed our orders with our server. Overhead, the decidedly un-Italian strains of the Eagles’ Hotel California played, prompting me to air-guitar along to Joe Walsh’s solo as they brought out my first order: the Cherry Italian Cream Soda ($5.00).
