All-you-can-eat Lenten fish fry at Mr. G’s Pizzeria and Wings

By Mimi Vanderhaven

If you’re giving up meat for the Lenten season, we have good news for you. Mr. G’s Pizzeria & Wings is rolling out its new Lenten menu and all of the $16.99 tasty entrées are available for dine-in, delivery or pickup (except for the famous All-You-Can-Eat Fish Fry, which must be enjoyed on premises).

Here are the highlights of the new menu:

Lenten Specials
From now until Easter Sunday, April 9, Mr. G’s is offering a number of homemade meatless entrées, including Jumbo Lobster Ravioli—large ravioli stuffed with lobster and two cheeses (ricotta and Parmesan) and smothered in a garlic Alfredo sauce.

You can also enjoy Jumbo Cheese Ravioli covered in homemade marinara and topped with mozzarella cheese, or the homemade Vegetable Lasagna, a classic Italian comfort food featuring layers of carrots, mushrooms, and spinach with both ricotta and mozzarella cheeses.

Back by popular demand is the Spinach Manicotti—rolled cheese manicotti on a bed of fresh spinach topped with homemade marinara and baked with mozzarella.

And brand new this year is Linguini and Clam Sauce, featuring baby clams and chopped clams with your choice of white or red sauce.

All of these Lenten specials include bread and your choice of soup or a fresh, crisp garden salad.

Also back is the popular Lenten Family Meal Deal, which is your choice of Baked Ziti or Fettuccini Alfredo, fresh salad, and 12 garlic twists. The meal feeds 4-6 people for $42.99 and is available every day.

All-You-Can-Eat Fish Fry
The Giardina family’s take on the classic Lenten Fish-fry features flaky white fish fried to a golden brown, plus french fries, cole slaw, tartar sauce and hushpuppies. It comes in at just $13.99, but it’s served only on Wednesdays and Fridays during Lent.

All of the other Lenten Special entrées above are served every day—until Easter.

The Everyday Meatless Menu
Mr. G’s regular menu features plenty of non-meat entrées, too. In fact, half of the items are completely meatless, including Fettuccini Alfredo, Eggplant Parmesan, Pasta Alio Olio, Baked Ziti, Mrs. G’s Famous Gnocchi, Stuffed Shells, the legendary Tower of Eggplant, and traditional homemade Lasagna.

Plus, the restaurant’s 15 diverse vegetarian pizza toppings include cheese, black olives, mushrooms, green peppers, hot peppers, spinach, green olives, onions, fresh tomatoes, pineapple, banana peppers, garlic, basil, eggplant, broccoli, and roasted red peppers.

And if you’ve given up the gluten, be sure to try Mr. G’s gluten-free pizza. It’s so delicious, no one will know it’s wheat-less.
