“The best pizza and subs anywhere. Furr-get Aboutit I had a slice of cheese pizza and an orange soda while waiting for the rest of my order and it turned out to be the best pizza ever. I also had a delicious cheese-steak sub with fries and my mother got an egg sandwich. All the food came out quick fast and in a hurry and was extremely tasty. Would recommend to any local or hungry traveler. I met the two brothers that run the place and they seem like good guys.“

“Our stay here has been absolutely fantastic. The front desk attendant and valets guys are amazing. The staff has gone above and beyond to meet all of our needs.“

“We really enjoy the Porkette with Broccoli Rabe, long hots, and sharp provolone; it’s absolutely delicious. My husband tried the chicken parm sandwich this time, and it was also fantastic. If we lived nearby, this would be a regular spot for us. I highly recommend it!“

“Italian kitchen is a great one stop shop for all your catering orders. I showed up to pick up the sandwiches for our church lunch and I had put the wrong date on the order!!! They were able to accommodate me and worked like crazy to get it done. The cake I ordered was superb!!! If it had not been for the kindness of this store today, I don’t know what I would have done. The cashier, God Bless you. You went above and beyond to fix my mistake. Love you all!!!“

“I usually don’t write reviews but Mike (chef) at Genaro’s is so wonderful ! The short time I met him and talked to him I could tell how genuine and sweet he is. I had my mom’s retirement dinner at a place pretty much next door. When I called originally to see if he can cater it he called me back so quickly and helped me pick out the perfect amount of food . EVERYTHING was sooo delicious (and we are foodies ) when dropping off the food we were figuring out where to get ice and he offered his workers to go get ice for us from his kitchen(the restaurant ) … so nice! Also he said gave us plates bc I mentioned I didn’t want to eat on plastic or paper plates. I can’t wait to actually go and eat at the restaurant next time .“

“Please please bring back the burrata and soprasetta appetizer!! It was the best and so many patrons miss it!!“

“Always good always consistent! My favorite restaurant in the city 2024!“

“As always a traditional delicious Italian meal.“

“Outstanding foor and service. Unique menu that is full of delicious surprises. Not one thing disappointed.“

“have been going here for twenty years never had a bad sandwich or a bad interaction with anyone working for them. I have been home bound and on oxygen for three years now and the kindness the staff has shown when I call to order or the regular two drivers who always take the time to make sure I get my delivery knowing it takes me few minutes to make it to the door is nothing short of amazing. I had a concern today with my delivery and they as usual said will be handled. thanks for always putting your customers first thanks Merle McClintock“

“I have been going there from the age of 3 or 2 ye,s Old..."PNM thanks. I miss the food. I live in the middle west now.“

“First time back since last months fiasco. Today was a 100% improvement. We had Will today and he made it an enjoyable experience. Salad was fresh and entrees were great. Thank you Will for restoring our faith. Even had dessert.“

“Service and food were absolutely amazing! I can't wait to go back!“

“Not only is the food delicious, but the customer service is truly top-notch. When it came to a minor confusion with an order, the staff, more specifically the owner, Susan, went absolutely above and beyond in resolving the matter. Rocco's continues to be our favorite restaurant when the Italian-cravings hit and would recommend anyone and everyone to experience this local gem for themselves.“

“I love everything I ordered. I highly recommend Cafe Sitaly. Even when I have to wait, it's worth my time. It's Delicious 😋🤤“

“Outstanding -- food was phenomenal and creative and interesting (choices of ingredients as well as how beautifully they played together) without being "precious" or awkwardly, imposingly out of the box. Lovely space, fantastic service.“

“First and foremost yes it’s inside of what seems to be a dieing mall. But to get to the point there is basically more food spots in the mall then actual interesting stores in my opinion so I went there to eat because I hadn’t had food yet. With that being said I kept walking almost to the end of the mall by where sears was and there it was. I have to say the place is great from service to food everything was amazing! If I was more local I would definitely stop in often. Our server was super friendly and outgoing she had no issue getting us anything that was needed she even took a soup back that I didn’t like without any hesitation or attitude that most other places would not do. The food was great the place was clean bar options were great like I said I have not 1 complaint . Picture was from the complimentary bread they give , and a special of the lobster/crab and shrimp ravioli . We also got the chicken parm sandwich so cheesy and the special steak which was pretty loaded! Crinkle cut fries with cheese were also great! Unfortunately didn’t take pics of the other stuff but if you like Italian food do not hesistate to stop by!!!“

“Your food was excellent when we got married 6/9/10 and we had a wonderful lunch there today as well for our ten year anniversary. Everything was great!“

“Hidden Gem indeed! Great meal for take out. The lobster ravioli is fantastic!“

“We visited last night. We were greeted right away. The service was so good. I had Shells Aurora. Simply amazing. Pasta and chicken was cooked perfectly. My boyfriend didn't see chicken marsala on the menu. only chicken parmesan.He asked and they made him the chicken marsala. So good too. We ordered wine. I had the Cabernet and he had the Pino Noir .Both wines were rich and savory. Very tasty. The floor manager even came up to make sure we were happy. That was very nice. we received the check and the server boxed up our food for us. The check really was not expensive. I paid and gave a 25% tip. I normally don't care either way with itailian resteraunts but this place was so nice. Rustic and warm atmosphere, pleasant staff, and amazing food. Will visit again for sure.“

“Friendly staff, timely arrival of food to the table, and clean facilities! Nicole ensured we never had empty cups and was punctual throughout our dining experience. If these things are important to you, then you will absolutely have a great experience as well.“

“Best time to come is early morning or in afternoon. Not very busy then. Great food Also like 2 minutes to 95.“

“Five of us had lunch at Cafe Verdi today. I only wish we had discovered it sooner! Between us we had four different pasta dishes and 1 salmon burger. Everything was excellent- fresh, nicely presented, and delicious! The family restaurant feel, the lovely music, and the people on staff made for a most enjoyable and memorable afternoon! We will definitely return- thank you, Sylvio!“

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND: 2 large pizzas for $23.99. That is an astronomically good deal. They offer that everyday. I would NOT recommend the “specialty” pizzas that come out to $22.99 a pop. With these kinds of pizza places it’s always about the calories per dollar. The staff here is fun and is down to chat when they have time. Kevin, Paul, Rob, and Mickey are all really cool staff and are when they have down-time they love to crack jokes to make your day. This place is split into a takeout spot and a dine-in spot. I went with the takeout although the dine-in looks like a chill Italian restaurant to bring your grandparents.“

“Amazing pizza ♡ friendly service♡ love this place!“

“Food was absolutely delicious ? & Rosemary our waitress very nice and helpful. My honey took me here for a date. We love to experience new spots and I love byob“

“AWESOME EVERYTHING GUYS!!KEEP UP THE OUTSTANDING WORK!“

“Food is all homemade and delicious. Sandwiches are very good filled with deliciousness service is right on and spotlessly clean“

“After 32 years out of NJ pizza has been disappointing. So now that I am in NJ for work until July, my quest is to eat 2 slices of cheese pizza at every place the locals recommend. Today, it's Joe's, and they did not disappoint!!! Highly recommend to any visitor and other locals. The test of good pizza is the point folds off the plate and it leaves a nice red oily stain on the paper plate...both were spot perfect...the crust was perfect, the cheese was gooey and flavor top notch. if I work in the area tomorrow, it's calzone or stromboli!!“

“Place is better then your regular Primos! They really seem to all Care and seem like they put heart into each hoagie!“

“I enjoyed the food. Ordered a hoagie and Stromboli. Both were excellent. My son and I loved the sauce as it wasn’t sweet.“

“The morning/afternoon crew is the greatest! They make the best pizza around. But if you order after 6pm not so good! Whoever makes the pizza then is afraid to use cheese!! Can you have the morning guy (probably the owner) teach the late day guy how to make pizza?!“

“excellent!!!!! good Music, good placer.“

“This review is solely based on pizza as it is the only thing we ordered. Mine was the chicken and broccoli alfredo. It was excellent. My husband had a cheese steak pizza and he said it was only okay but feels the issue was that lettuce wilts in heat, so they use too much cheese to create a buffer. With less cheese and no lettuce he would have liked it better. He'd try a different slice but certainly still go back. Mine was excellent, so I'd still give it an A+ for pizza and I'd certainly come back again. Is it particularly fancy? No. Lighting could be better. But I'm just here for a quick slice so it doesn't matter very much. The young employees were very nice as well.“

“So, so, so good. What a great little place with perfect service. All our meals were superb. Kudos to the chef and the staff at this gem of a restaurant!.“

“I could not be more thrilled! Nowadays you have to search hard to find a place like this. Outstanding quality of food. And very generous portions. I’ve been eating here for a long time. It’s about time I give this place a great review! I ordered over medium eggs, as I often do, and they are perfect each and every time. The bacon is top quality and they don’t hold back on the portions. Delicious potatoes and toast. Excellent food and service and two of us had a full breakfast for less than forty bucks, and that included a nice tip! Best breakfast around by far! I highly recommend Taste Budz.“

“Pizza was tasty and atmosphere was welcoming“

“love them best hot wings ❤️“

“Yatz's is the BEST. Definitely in the top 3 of Delaware. The Ladies who create those delicious mouth watering subs are tremendously nice and very kind. The best part for me are the Tomatoes that Yatz's uses. I do not know where they get it from but when its laid on that turkey sub with a bag of chips and a cold one from their great juice selection....food ambiance at its finest. I usually pay for extra tomatoes!! Oh and the water ice in summertime, salud...“

“Amazing hoagies and staff. So many choices and can’t go wrong with any of them!“

“love them best hot wings ❤️“

“Very friendly on the phone, placed a take out order. the food was packed with care and the fries stayed crispy a long time . Lol. It was a warm dinner on a cold night and I am so pleased with their food!!“
