50 Best Italian Restaurants near Penns Grove

“I seriously love this place! The food, service, and vibes are always spot-on. Last week I came with a friend for the buffet and had such a good time that I’m going back tomorrow with someone else. The portions are huge, the prices are super reasonable, and everything tastes fresh and delicious. We sat outside this time and caught a live band — they were really good and made the whole experience even better. Honestly, it’s one of those spots where you can treat yourself without any guilt. Great food, fun vibes, and friendly staff make it a total winner. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a casual, delicious meal with a lively atmosphere.“

“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.“

“Love Roman pantry so much. We order regularly and once or twice a year I do a large (16ish) breakfast sandwich order for my teacher coworkers. It is phenomenal every time and everyone always loves it. Thank you guys!“

“I dined at the Pike Creek location. The staff is friendly and accommodating. Im confident that if you dine there twice, you're a regular.

While the menu may appear to be limited, they all the homestyle favorites. There are vegetarian options. My favorite appetizer is on the menu, Fried Burssel Sprouts.

The portions are family style. Don't expect to finish what you order.

I have a bias here. They aren't far from my home. That's waht makes this a welcome addition to the restaurant scene in Pike Creek.“

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!!!“

“Order anything with the garlic bread and amp up your gastronomic experience to epic proportions. Lauren has that way of scanning the bar/restaurant for a refill, making sure everything is cool, or the check. It’s not loud so you can converse with friends-and new friends! Community vibe. Oh, and did I mention the garlic bread?“

“What a very pleasant dinner we had, with our attentive, experienced and insightful server Natasha. The salads were superb, fresh and inventive. We had the bucatini and the pork collar entrees and they were delicious. My pork was SO good — artful, beautiful and included many delightful tastes, from the sliced pork with a wonderful sear to the topping of sliced kumquats! The parsnip emulsion and what I think were hazel nuts provided a symphony of complementary taste and textures. Wonderful! And the rosemary sorbet should not be missed — a real ‘wow' with a glass of an Amaro.“

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

“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.“

“If the Concord Mall is a dying husk of what it once was, Café Riviera is an oasis in the desert. We've been stopping in this little hidden gem for more than 20 years, but hadn't visited in a long while. Tonight we made a special trip, and were greatly relieved to find not only are they still open, but the food is still top notch. We were seated right away by friendly staff. Server was attentive and obliging. Our food took quite a while, but it was obviously made to order and totally worth the wait. There's not much our family of four can agree on, but we all came away happy. Amazing pizza, beautiful calzone, delicious garlic knots. Serving sizes were more than we could eat, plenty of leftovers to bring home. In a fast-changing world, it's nice to find some things exactly the way you remember them.“

“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!“

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

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

“Update: We have lived here nearly a year and this is still our go-to place. My oldest daughter is now vegan and they custom make her vegan breadsticks. Love these guys! We order from here usually once per week. Their plain pizza is classic. I think they put cinnamon in their crust—there is something special. It’s the only pizza that all of my kids like. Win! Oh, and the guy that answers the phone and does the register is always so nice! Highly recommend!“

“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“

“My Husband and I just got the Bianca pizza. Everything else there doesn't taste good(reg pizza, fries) This location was our first date over 27 years ago. We will never stop coming here. As with all food places, prices are way too high.“

“I really enjoyed the grilled chicken salad because it had a lot of veggies and wasn't just lettuce. I also really enjoy getting the penne with meatballs in blush sauce because the dish is so full of flavor.“

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

“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!!“

“The owners are very nice and the food is great!!!“

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

“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?!“

“The waitress was fantastic! Food is above average diner food! The place could use some updating, it's kinda dark & dingy. We liked a few Halloween decorations around the table, so i picked one up to hand to my daughter, it was sticky & covered in dust.“

“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...“

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

“Pizza was tasty and atmosphere was welcoming“

“Everything we had was high quality, delicious, and very affordable. Started off with the Buffalo Chicken Tots for the table and they were devoured in seconds. We had the Philly Dog, a Chicken Cheesesteak, Triple Decker BLT, and the Sausage Breakfast Sandwich and we were all very happy with our sandwiches!“

“I order from the catering menu often for work lunches and every single time, Ciconte’s delivers great food and amazing customer service! I highly recommend them for all of your catering needs!
