She was amazing she handled us all with efficiency and grace!! I know we drove her crazy but she was amazing!!!! Thank you John’s place for a wonderful time and again kudos to Jeanette !!!“

“A mystery. Outstanding ambiance, looks and feels like nice casual cafes we ate at in Milan and Tuscany. Once inside can't believe it's in an outdoor mall in NC. Friendly service. Chicken marsala with mushrooms as good as it gets. Hearts of palm salad not on many menus but was delightful. The customers seemed to be enjoying a relaxed, quality dining experience without the pretense of a fancy place or buzz of a large busy place. The mystery-why was it only half full on a Friday night?“

“The food, service and ambiance was excellent.“

“Great food, great service, but if you’re a larger party and are seated in the enclosed patio area, take heed that it will be extremely uncomfortable with the summer heat. They only have a couple of small portable fans that are absolutely inadequate for the total space, and the ceiling fans (supposedly set to the incorrect direction) didn’t help much. Even the dining room wasn’t much better. I know it’s been hot, but if the customer is uncomfortable I can only imagine the staff.“

“My husband and I have been going to Marios/John’s place for over 30 years and have never had a bad meal. John has done an excellent job from his managers to wait staff and to the wonderful tasting food. I recently had a private party there and every person raved about the food and the hospitality of the restaurant. I cannot thank John enough for making everything perfect. You are definitely missing out if you don’t go there and have a wonderful dinner.“

“Had the pleasure of dining at That's Amore for the first time today. The food was excellent and the service was outstanding. We were celebrating my sister's birthday and the chef brought out a number of appetizers; ,bruschetta. cold antipasto, rice balls, etc.. and everything was absolutely delicious. Our main courses were equally delicious. If you haven't tried That's Amore then please do. You will love their authentic and fresh italian food!“

“Alfredo spinach pizza great BUT they still charge for chicken when I requested no chicken. So I had to pay more for the dead ingredient that makes it expensive being a vegetarian. Boo-hiss!! Excuse: "No option on computer to deduct chicken" Lame, lame, lame!!!“

“Family owned/run business. Go Jets/Knicks. You can order a pie or just get a slice. I wanted to try it out and got a cheese slice and it was so yummy. Pizza tasted good, had a nice bake, and was not floppy. I didn’t grab a pic because I ate it right away. My NY Knicks Hero was very good, never had vodka sauce before but it was perfect. My son got the Alfredo. Even though it was a bit of a drive I would definitely make the trip back to try more of the menu. Customer service is great, the establishment was clean. They have a patio. Very friendly.“

“Good food. Good family spot. Polite staff.“

“The Owner/Manager is a great guy. Nevermind the fact that the food has been consistently great for years. He is kind, and takes care of the customers like it really means something to him. Today I went in for a 12 inch sub roll to take home and bake. When I had my card out ready to pay, he kindly said no need, be safe, and we’ll see you next time. Those are the types of gestures that will keep one coming back for life and hard to find nowadays. Thank you TONYS!“

“Negroni to start, little gem Caesar salad, scallops with corn risotto, espresso martini to finish…..ALL perfect Including the service. I look forward to returning.Thank you for a wonderful dinner!“

“I’ve ordered from Libretto’s Pizza twice now, and it’s been amazing both times. I’m originally from New Jersey, so I’m pretty picky when it comes to pizza. It’s hard to find pizza that reminds me of the New York/New Jersey style, but Libretto’s is definitely up there!“

“It was super delicious! Mine was takeout order, so I was pretty happy with the quick service. I ordered it from lunch menu, the price is very good, especially the area. I have cashew nuts chicken and my favorite dish Beef Chow Fun, they serve freshness of the vegetable and balance of flavors. Highly recommended!!!“
