Casa Novello has been dishing up mountainous portions of Italian-American style comfort food for years. That it used to be the neighborhood trattoria for local Italian families complete with widows in black stockings and mourning attire right out of central casting is an era long gone at this Main Street institution in Westbrook.
Today it's a glorified pizzeria in which even some Portlanders wander in for its robust fare. Favorites besides pizza include lasagna ($15.99), meatballs and spaghetti ($13.99), chicken Parmesan ($15.99) and chicken Marsala ($17.99), which come sailing out of the kitchen with such gusto that you expect it all to be as good as it looks.
