“Ody and Chris do an amazing job with the food we ordered a tsunami burger and a Mediterranean turkey burger as well as the cup of chicken and vegetable soup and a bowl of cream of mushroom soup. The atmosphere is always welcoming and friendly. No matter how many times I come here Chris and Ody always amaze me with the food.“

“Planned the weekend getaway for my bf’s birthday in this town, sooooo happy to find this amazing restaurant for his big day.The atmosphere was upscale but very family friendly. Service was great even though it was very busy on a Saturday night. The server tried her best to check with us if everything went OK, I saw her kept running back and forth to the kitchen, and I’m sure the kitchen was super busy as well.Food: they have a great selection of appetizers and we seriously wanted to try all of them, we ordered tonight’s special: salmon tartar. Escargot, seared scallops, foie gras & fried calamari.Salmon tartar: love the sauce, very refreshing and it matched with the salmon so well, it comes with the crispy toasts, it gave the crunchiness from the soft salmon texture.Escargot: it wrapped inside the puff, I personally think it’s too much of the puff or not enough escargot inside. I barely tasted the escargot, I would prefer the traditional escargot dish just with garlic butter.Seared scallops: top notch! Perfectly cooked and seasoned, well done dish! Must have!Foie gras: OMG, full of favors, a lot of favors in a bite that melt in your mouth. Another Must have!Fried calamari : I love they have fried zucchini and jalapeños in it to balance out the texture from the calamari .Main entrees we had risotto, monk fish and chicken masala. Great portion. All main were a bit too salty for us, but still tasted good and we enjoyed them.All of the dishes had great presentation which I enjoyed them and think it’s important.I reserved the table online and wrote down it’s for my bf birthday celebration, they did not forget and bring out the panna cotta at the end with a candle and birthday song. Thank you for the wonderful dinner experience.Kid-friendliness: We came with 3 kids and didn’t have any problems. The server liked my youngest and kept complimenting him.“

“I'm not big on pizza so I can't rate it but I did have to heat up the calamari a little more when I got home but the garlic knots and onion rings were good.. I thought the customer service wasn't going to be good as I felt rushed on the phone... But they were really friendly when I got there and gave me extra stuff I asked for. All and all good place.“

“Good food. My daughter loves the wings and I some pizza slices. More spices could be added to the wings though or they need to package and sell those seasonings ?? but overall they’re great! My daughter loves the wings! The best seasoned wings on town! The atmosphere is amazing as well. They also have a bar with their own made beer. Its a nice spot where Ive went to for years! ❤️Vegetarian options: Please add more. Its hard to find good vegetarian places around PA. This should be a good one too.“

“Bosco Pizza, shrouded in Monday mystery, stands as a culinary enigma amidst the vibrant offerings of Saen Thai next door. The alluring fragrance of Thai delights, a tantalizing waltz of spices, beckons me into its flavorful embrace. Yet, the closed doors of Bosco on Mondays lead me to weave a tale of gastronomic diplomacy. Amidst the symphony of tastes, Bosco entices with its pizza prowess, offering a cornucopia of cheesy delights.Saen Thai, a fragrant haven of Thai delicacies, unleashes an olfactory orchestra that serenades my senses. As I navigate its menu adorned with aromatic curries and spice-laden wonders, Bosco's Monday closure becomes a poetic pause in my culinary journey. It is here that I delve into the nuances of Bosco's offerings—slices adorned with a tapestry of toppings, pies that boast a harmony of flavors, and the prospect of savoring a cheesy indulgence within the confines of my home.In this gastronomic tapestry, Bosco's menu unfolds like a culinary sonnet. From classic Margheritas, where the simplicity of tomato and mozzarella harmonize, to the extravagant symphony of supreme pizzas, each slice becomes a stanza in the poetry of flavors. The allure of garlic-kissed crust, the dance of pepperoni on a sizzling surface, and the artistry of melted cheese form the lyrical notes of my pizza escapade. In the absence of Bosco's Monday serenade, I curate a pizza concerto, ensuring that the family feast resonates with the crescendo of flavors that define the pizzaiolo's craft. Thus, the review becomes a poetic ode to the culinary treasures concealed within Bosco's closed doors, waiting to unfold their cheesy secrets.“

“Benvenuto is by far my favorite pizza place in the area. The staff is very friendly and the food is phenomenal and well-priced! Their margarita pizza is the best I’ve ever had. I would eat it everyday if I could! If you are planning on dining in during the summer, it gets a little hot in the dining room.“

“We have been coming to Johnnie's for several years now since moving to the area. I can't say enough about this place, food is amazing every time. Johnnie and his staff are even better. They are extremely friendly and polite every time. They know how to provide great service with their great food. A must try “

“I really enjoyed the service but, what I experienced was an awkward moment where the chef came from the kitchen and berated the bartender loudly and disrespectively. I was with my children. And they heard the chef loudly put down the bartender over specials.“

“I have been going here ever since I've been a freshman in high school. I am now 24 very grateful to see that they are one of the businesses that have lasted since I last been up here five years ago. Owner is always friendly, very hard-working, and deserves every penny. EAT HERE LADIES AND GENTS.“

“Pizzaro’s is the only pizzeria in the area I will patronize. The quality of the pizza is on par with NY style pizzerias that I am accustomed to. It is conveniently located near my office as well, so it’s a double win. Never a bad meal at Pizzaro’s!“

Keep it up Primos staff.P.s. they always busy with customers tht should tell you something.????“

“Our first visit - we came because we saw “Gluten free pasta available “ on the menu. However, they don’t actually have GF pasta. Our waitress. Jenna (who is also gluten free) saved the day by sharing from her private supply. PLEASE keep gluten free pasta in stock!“

“Been here a bunch of times, food is always on point and as far as service goes we almost always get Kendra as a server and she's the biggest reason we always return, attentive, polite and just makes the meal more enjoyable. She is also great with my daughter which is an even bigger plus !“

“There are many restaurants that serve quality food. But most places don’t also have quality people to match. Napoli Pizza is one of the few places that does. I go there for their delicious pizza (I get extra cheese and homemade meatballs on mine), but I stay because I feel welcomed and valued, as both a customer and an individual. Napoli Pizza is an establishment built on qualities like authenticity, kindness, and a love of serving other people - both with dinner and a smile.Are you looking for a dine-in restaurant that serves food with high quality ingredients with an atmosphere that makes you feel right at home (but without doing the dishes)? Napoli Pizza is for you.Are you looking for some take out, that not only stays hot and delicious all the way home, but is made to order exactly how you love it? Napoli pizza is for you.Don’t want to leave your house? Too comfortable in your pajamas to contemplate facing the great outdoors today? Napoli offers a great delivery service. We have all been victim to DoorDash leaving your order in mysterious places, crazy fees (that we don’t even know what they are for!), and all for lukewarm food when you finally sit down to eat it. Napoli offers a great alternative, where you aren’t consulting an app for your next meal, but rather real people who want to ensure the satisfaction of all individuals they serve. They hand deliver your order (to the proper address), with a positive attitude and genuine care.Napoli Pizza in Bangor has reinvented the dining experience to one of simplistic elegance, handcrafted to your tastes. To suffice, the food is like experiencing flavor for the first time again, and it was made with Love.“

“Went to Luigi Rancho to celebrate my birthday with a couple of friends. I have been there before but not for a long time. Had a really great time. The service was a little slow because everyone seemed to arrive at the same time. It wasn't a problem though be cause we wanted to chat and catch up and we enjoyed the live music. The prices were reasonable, the restaurant was full. The Food was very good, we got large portions, the staff was very nice and the live music was great. ( D&B Band) Definitely want to go back real soon“
