A Park Street Italian restaurant, advertised in 1949 for shrimp dinners and frozen custard; renamed or rebranded Amato's Holiday House by late 1953. By 1958 it advertised "Madison's Finest PIZZA, Served or Carry Out." Tony Schiavo, a relative of the owners, made and delivered pizzas there at 15, about 1958. Its brick pizza oven later went to the Greenbush Bar.
