“Excellent Food, friendliest staff“

“We had an amazing experience on our wedding day last weekend at Duffinetti’s. The owner was extremely accommodating and dedicated to making our day extra special. She allowed us to drop our wedding cake off prior to opening for storing, served an amazing meal for our large party, served our wedding cake and even arranged the performer to play our wedding song for our first dance. We couldn’t thank her and the staff enough for making our day amazing.“

“was really good and the service was great. Unfortunately, the kids’ meals were way too expensive at $16 each, especially with no kids drinks included. Alcohol is also on a separate bill since they get the drinks from the restaurant next door. Overall, we enjoyed the food, but the prices are just way too high for us to come back.“

“Delicious food. Never disappoints !“

“5 star! what started out as a bad weekend. We stumbled across this place last day. and we were impressed! Don't second guess . Just go -you will love everything about this place. thank you for your hospitality ♡ # from Baltimore“

“I chose this restaurant for my husband’s birthday dinner. We had an amazing meal in a pretty setting. Aside from being extremely impressed with all of the flavors, from appetizer to dessert, our server, Ari (not sure I’m spelling it correctly) was just the sweetest, knowledgeable and kind young woman. She was very attentive but not annoyingly. There were other servers walking around making sure tables were cleared of finished apps, salads and such. They work as a team and made the experience so enjoyable. Everything flowed so smoothly. We enjoyed delicious cocktails and the food was so on point. We’re giving Santorini ALL the stars! We will most definitely be back, again and again!“

“Don’t let the off island location fool you, Mangia is a great spot!! Great food. Great service!! Highly recommended! I had the lasagna and it was awesome. Abby was our A+ server! Huge portions… we left with enough for lunch tomorrow! We’ll be back again!!“

“5 Stars - Unbelievable Food! I was on the hunt for a great cheesesteak and stumbled upon this spot—wow, am I glad I did! Their food is even better than Gino’s, which is saying a lot. Every bite was packed with flavor, and you can tell they use top-quality ingredients. If you’re looking for the best cheesesteak around, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!“

“I had my rehearsal dinner at the Ravioli House on Thursday and they went completely above and beyond. They decorated beautifully with my wedding colors and even printed custom menus. The food was delicious and all the guests were blown away by everything we were served, especially the vodka pasta. They included a huge cannoli cake which was absolutely incredible. The owner even came out and gave us a tour of the kitchen and bakery. I cannot say enough good things about Ravioli House.“

We had it today on vacation from Central PA & it had wonderful friendly staff, fast service, and the sauce was just a tad sweet which is perfect just the way I like it, crust was crispy the whole way through, well done, worth the stop! The French fries were very good too! very clean oil and crunchy!“

“Zachary was very quick with our pizza, he delivered it and then proceeded to sprint off the beach like a gazelle, truly a majestic sight to see. His speed and efficiency was truly a marvel to witness and we will definitely order from here again“

“Im telling you this place is outstanding!! I had lived in Philly and been to Pats and Geno's in South Philly among many others. Alfredo's, Claudio's, Jersey Mike's, Erma Deli and so on. This place is so good, that I challenge anyone to try it and if you don't think they have the Best Cheese Steaks you have ever had, I will pay for yours. Whoever owns this place has a gold mine. They should give samples at places like Walmart, ShopRite, etc and their business will boom. Hands down the best food I've ever had from a sandwich shop. Heck, from anywhere. The girl at the counter , Clara was so nice. I went in there 15 minutes before closing and they turned the oven and grill on to make what I ordered. Then I told her to wave at me in the truck parked right out front when it was ready and I would come in and get it , then all the sudden, here she comes running out with my order. Incredible place and the only one I will go to for sandwiches ever again!! Great food, service and atmosphere!“
