We have loved enjoying the delicious food at Cafe Valentina. We have been coming here for more 15 years. We feel like we are dining at one of the finest restaurants in Italy. 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.

Definitely Eat here if you like soggy watery cheesesteaks and cheese fries with no cheese. Second time going there and it’s gonna be the last.

I came in to see an old favorite Alicia and was told by another server Shelby she wasn't available but found out Alicia was available. She was rude snippy and just the worst server ever!!!!!!°°

All the meal are exceptionally prepared and the atmosphere is wonderful. It is well worth the visit.

I ordered ziti with vodka sauce for takeout. I only live a few minutes away and opened my food as soon as I got home. The noodles were already soggy and breaking apart. There was barely any sauce, and the sauce didn’t have much flavor. I also pulled a long, black hair out of the bowl. I don’t think I’ll order from here again.

My Favorite Neighborhood Italian Restaurant
I've become a regular here due to the quality food, affordable prices and very friendly service. Real pizza slices with real cheese. The penne with vodka is good if you're in the mood forsomethingo fancier. The chicken cheesesteak with grilled onions, peppers and sauce has become my regular order. The bar area is small, but usually active.

Parking: Plenty of parking.

Very bad experience! We waited a long time for food. They forgot to make my wife's food and to top it off, the food was terrible. Additionally, the prices did not match the menu.

Interior needs a good cleaning. The shelf the cold/old pizza sits on ?. Door needs a little paint & windows need a wiping. The lighting, maybe for ambiance are low, it actually amplifies the cleanliness opportunities. Alright? Enough beating these folks up. They have REAL MOZZARELLA STICKS!!! If you are following me you know how I feel about this… If you are an Italian or Pizza place you need to have these, if not it’s sacrilege. The sticks themselves were not great, if you were to put a gun to my head I would say the oil needs to be changed. With that said the Marinara was excellent!!! I would bathe in it, js. The cheeseburger sub came with fries a plus but due to take out packaging they were gross. Another take away for restaurant owners, fried foods should never be sealed up. Put them in an open bag & make them last. Finally, we are at the end of probably my most colorful review (I’m in a mood), the sub itself was ehhhh. Take note!!! Season the meat before cooking (salt & pepper), then season the sub after built (oregano, salt & pepper), this will make you the best pizza shop in the block!!!

So so food. I've had better. I've had worse. It was a large portion. Light on the sauce and not heated thru. Probably shouldn't have chanced eating it but I didn't get sick. Fee associated with credit card which is only posted when you pick up. I don't like using cash at restaurants. Too easy to not report

Ordered and paid for antipasto for 2 @ $16.00. It was so small and pretty much tasteless. Not a great experience
