50 Best Italian Restaurants near New Castle

“AWESOME EVERYTHING GUYS!!KEEP UP THE OUTSTANDING WORK!“

“We order from here entirely too often. It’s fast, hot, reliable, good-tasting food, and the portions are generous. We’ve ordered a bunch of types of sandwiches, the chicken tenders, eggplant parm, cheesesteaks, and it always gets here with integrity - not cold or mushy or lukewarm. The corn nuggets are one of the best items on the menu.
The most impressive thing is that after ordering a million times, not once have I ever received a soggy cannoli, not even a soft shell. They’re always crispy. I’ve seen some people complain about them and honestly, I think they’re good, I always get one, and they’re much better than the alternative, which is no cannoli. Tiramisu is also good and rich, but I always go back to the cannoli.“

“Place is great second time getting food from them. First time dining in. Food is fantastic didn't hear a word from the kids because they were too busy eating everything. We got a Stromboli a pizza mozzarella sticks and 2 orders of their tacos everything was delicious.

Kid-friendliness: Very kind to my 4 year old

Parking: Plenty of parking“

“Dear Season's, please up your game on your grilled chicken salad. Feels like what I got was a plate of lettuce & a couple pcs of chicken. Add some more tomatoes, black olives, onion, cheese, cucumber or pickle... even charge another couple dollars if you have to. I'd rather pay more and be impressed, than not. Hope next time I'm pleasantly surprised.“

“Evelyn was very pleasant and got everything we needed. Would recommend bertcci’s and our lovely server to everyone! 5 stars“

“Scalessa's gave me 2 great things. The first was the happy flashback of eating at Priori's at home. The secons was that Scalessa's food was out of this world. I had the Four Cheese Gnocchi which bards would write poems about. I cannot say enough about the awesomeness of this fine establishment! I will definitely come back when I visit my sister again.👍“

They were able to accommodate me and worked like crazy to get it done. The cake I ordered was superb!!! If it had not been for the kindness of this store today, I don’t know what I would have done. The cashier, God Bless you. You went above and beyond to fix my mistake. Love you all!!!“

The portions are huge, the prices are super reasonable, and everything tastes fresh and delicious. We sat outside this time and caught a live band — they were really good and made the whole experience even better. Honestly, it’s one of those spots where you can treat yourself without any guilt. Great food, fun vibes, and friendly staff make it a total winner. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a casual, delicious meal with a lively atmosphere.“

Oh, and did I mention the garlic bread?“

We will definitely return- thank you, Sylvio!“

We can't wait to order again!“

We were missing Fortuna and Giuseppe for the past six months but finally tonight we had the pleasure to see them at the restaurant. Everyone should come here and enjoy their delicious food. It is real Italian food and they have good prices.“

“The morning/afternoon crew is the greatest! They make the best pizza around. But if you order after 6pm not so good! Whoever makes the pizza then is afraid to use cheese!! Can you have the morning guy (probably the owner) teach the late day guy how to make pizza?!“

“Recommended 100 % Professional Chef“

“Yatz's is the BEST. Definitely in the top 3 of Delaware. The Ladies who create those delicious mouth watering subs are tremendously nice and very kind. The best part for me are the Tomatoes that Yatz's uses. I do not know where they get it from but when its laid on that turkey sub with a bag of chips and a cold one from their great juice selection....food ambiance at its finest. I usually pay for extra tomatoes!! Oh and the water ice in summertime, salud...“

I also had a delicious cheese-steak sub with fries and my mother got an egg sandwich. All the food came out quick fast and in a hurry and was extremely tasty. Would recommend to any local or hungry traveler. I met the two brothers that run the place and they seem like good guys.“
