Sugo’s Spaghetteria is now open in Overland Park

• Sugo’s Spaghetteria
• Sugo’s spaghetti and meatballs are now being served.

A bit of St. Louis sugo has landed in Overland Park. Restaurateur Michael Del Pietro’s Sugo’s Spaghetteria has opened in Overland Park (13386 Metcalf). Sugo’s draws on Northern Italian and Sicilian influences for its freshly made pastas, risottos and four daily entrees. The bread and Neopolitan-style pizzas (Del Pietro recommends the whole-milk mozzarella with roasted garlic) are made in-house.

Del Pietro, who has plans for two more restaurants in the Kansas City area, talked about creating the menu for Sugo’s and his expansion plans to Fat City back in April.

“Our dishes are filling, but they’re not to that point where you’re going to be going, Oh my goodness gracious,” Del Pietro told us then.

Sugo’s is open 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Friday and 5-10 p.m. Saturday. Sugo’s closes from 2:30 to 5 p.m., between lunch and dinner, Monday-Friday. The phone number is 913-685-1667.
