“We’ve been coming here forever for meatballs. Everything is consistently fresh and delicious. Super cute old school Italian vibe inside. And the homemade cannolis are to die for!!! Go see Nala, sweet little Italian lady, she will take good care of you 🍝“

“The food was amazing. But I made a reservation for 8 at 7pm. Walked in and said told them I had a reservation she came over asked me my name then she answered then phone. After she got off the phone I asked if we could please sit outside and she said “ do you really want to do that I would have to move a table” She then said I have you set up in the back and led me to the back and walked away and said ya great in a smart manor. She was walking around talking to everyone so she must be some kinda lead I wouldn’t even call her a manager but yeah with that interaction me and my 350$ dinner bill will not be back.“

“DO NOT RECOMMEND! We went to dinner Saturday evening and the restaurant approximately 40 percent occupied. My wife ordered the Beef Tagliata and I the Egg Plant Parmigiano. The wonderful waitress served the meals and the Beef Tagliata was extremly COLD. My Egg Plant Parmigiano was very basic, like it came straight from the Cisco truck.The Beef Tagliata was sent back to the kitchen to be reheated. Ten minutes later it returned and the only part that was luke warm was the broccoli. We asked to speak to the Manager and the Waitress stated she was on the line (she was cooking, short staffed) and she couldn't speak with us. So we asked for the check so we could just bail and go somewhere else for dinner. While waiting for the check the Manager appeared wearing very causal clothes and a dirty apron. She apologized and stated the meal must have gotten cold from the kitchen to our outside table. 🙄 The couple sitting next to us also stated their meatballs were served cold. This can not be sanitary, meat products being served cold. We won't be returning the experience was extremely disappointing.“

“I ordered 6 arancini’s and picked them up today. My only regret is that I didn’t order more. They were absolutely delicious…fresh, hot and the perfect size. Thank you for making these for me. My family thoroughly enjoyed them. I’ll be back for more!“

“Fantastic pizza joint. They've got a great selection of other meals as well. I got the 16 inch build your own with pepperoni and mushrooms. Great crust, thin NY Style. Greek salad was amazing, as well“

“Good food, good people, fun night!“

“Had lunch there on 2/18/25. Had the lasagna, presentation was great with fresh basil on top, plenty of meat and sauce. served the way my Nonni would serve it in a big bowl. Bread was fresh and had a nice texture with some crunch. Service was great with such a large party inside.“

“I have been going to Leone’s since 2016 and always have a great dining experience, today was no exception with a great meal in a friendly environment.“

“Valenti's is SO SO delicious! If my waistline could afford it I would eat there every single day! I prefer the atmosphere in the bar to the actual restaurant and the service is superior!

Can't wait to eat there again!“
