“The best place in town for lunch and for meeting with friends and acquaintances. The food is good, so is the ambience in a patio surrounded by bougainvillea and nice music. The service is great and nothing beats Giselle’s welcoming smile.“

“Went here with my wife and her in-laws. They are part of the Marriott Bonvoy Eat Around Town program, so got some points for some incredible shrimp scampi and wonderful service.

The owner even stopped by and was real laid back and funny..would've fit into the Rat Pack had he been born 30 years earlier.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Good food, good people, fun night!“

“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.“

“We have visited Italy several times. I’m sure it goes without saying that we enjoy every delicious meal while there. We were thrilled to enjoy a meal that was as delicious and authentic as the food we love to eat in Italy. The Arancini was as yummy as what we have enjoyed in Rome. Our entrees were equally perfect. Thomas was a fantastic server. He was very personable, knowledgeable about the food and fun. We will be back.“

“We were looking for a location to host a reception for my Mother-in-law's celebration of life and Valenti's was one of the only locations we contacted that a) actually picked up the phone; b) could accommodate our group, and c) worked with us to make it a perfect and memorable event. Cesare and the entire staff there were amazing. They transformed the lounge into a beautiful and warm location and went above and beyond, adding black table linens, bud vases with flowers on the tables and candles, none of which we asked for, but all of which he delivered. It was such a nice touch and added a lot of warmth to the event. We had several older Italian's in our party (my Father-in-law is 84) and it was the perfect location for them to sit, fill their belly's and reminisce with family they hadn't seen for years. Cesare prepared a special menu for my Father-in-law, to include an antipasto, caprese salad, chicken piccata, meatballs and baked ziti, which seemed to please the crowd. They also allowed us to bring in pictures of my Mother-in-law to sit around and use their television to have a scrolling slide show of photos of her. The staff was very attentive to our group and made my Father-in-law feel very special. I cannot express how grateful we were to the entire team there for making this day memorable.“

“We had Hungry Howie’s cater our serve team party, and it was a huge hit! Everyone absolutely loved the pizza. The communication throughout the process was clear and professional, making everything smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend Hungry Howie’s for any large event, you won’t be disappointed!“

“My Husband & I have ordered from Joey D's 2 times in the last month. Pizza then a Italian Beef Combo & Gyro. All were excellent!! Thank you to Joey D's & their hard working staff!!“

“Best pizza, they get our orders right every week. We order for my office several different varieties and it's always fresh and fast. From the phone person to the delivery person everyone is friendly and knowledgeable always willing to go above and beyond.“
