Fun new ghost kitchen concept from Jovitos. Tried several versions of the meatballs, our favorite was the steak spiedini. All the sauces were super tasty and they came with bread and butter. It seemed super reasonably priced for what it is. Bonus are all the amazing cookies you can get with your order.
