“I met Luigi for the first time this weekend. He treated me like family, insisted I have a glass of wine while waiting for my order. We shared a little bit of life story with each other, and he sent me home with 2 desserts and the best pizza I have eaten in a while!! I will definitely return soon to begin my journey through his delicious menu. I’m so happy to find a place with this kind of character still exists in our world. 🍷🍕🇮🇹“

We ordered their Sunday sauce with Meatball,sausage,spare rib, bracelets on rigatoni W/a dollop of Ricotta cheese. Couldn’t finish all of it took the rest home.

“Just left a crazy Thursday night at IL Forno. What a fun and enjoyable evening we had. We walked in with no reservations and the manager snuck us right in and we even got to the listen to an amazing singer. We have been here a few times, this was by far the most fun we had. Everyone was laughing. The staff which seems to be plenty was having a good time. The manager and Owners kept walking around and making sure all was good and everyone was happy. Thank you for restoring our fun Thursday evening with no COVID fears.“

“This place is one of my family's favorite restaurants for many years. We all refer to it as B's. There are so many great and delicious choices between the specialty pizza slices, salads, and pasta and chicken dishes. Rocky and team has always gone above and beyond for us whenever we order out, dine in, cater for a party or host a party in the back. We've never had a bad meal here and highly recommend it.“

“we had an incredible meal and chatted with the owners who were wonderful“

“We love Arturo’s…it’s our go to for dinner with friends or just as a couple. the BEST martini menu we’ve ever seen and tasted. Food is always delicious and the service is always great. If you’ve never been, GO!!!!“

“like the Sicilian pizza and the meatball hero.Always a friendly bunch of fellas.“

“Hot and fresh to our table! So delicious! Just what these out of towners were expecting from a New York pizza place! Thank you! 😊“

“Love the fact they have so many gluten free options. I had a delicious chicken parm dinner with pasta. It was the best one I had in years ❤️“

“Food is always amazing, and I will never stop going there, but one thing confuses me. Every time I order a gluten free meal for takeout, there is a giant hunk of bread in the bag. With the gluten free meal. After calling and indicating a gluten allergy. So my wife has to remove the bread and clean the container before I can eat. It's worth the trouble, but it seems like a no-brainer that when someone orders gluten free, there shouldn't be bread in the bag.“

“This was my first time eating at Eduardo’s, and it definitely won’t be my last. The food was absolutely outstanding—every bite was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The service was just as exceptional, with a staff that was attentive, welcoming, and made the entire experience enjoyable.

I’ve known Jose for years, so it was great to finally experience what he’s built. It’s obvious how much pride and passion goes into this restaurant, and it shows in both the food and the atmosphere.

If you’re looking for incredible food, top-notch service, and a place that truly cares about its customers, I highly recommend Eduardo’s. Looking forward to coming back!“

“First time there. The food was good, the portions were large and the staff were very friendly and polite but with that being said, the service wasn't all that great. Drove up from the Bronx and even though it was enjoyable, I won't be going back. Why? Because I hate to be "nickel & dimed" ...I never question prices. I order what I want but when the check is upwards of $70 but I see I was charged for both cups of coffee, it's a turn-off! A little advice: let your customers be aware that there are no free refills on a cup of coffee instead of surprising them with a $10 charge for coffee. Good luck!“

“Had the best Chicken Bacon Ranch Roll ever. The dough was perfect, the chicken was tasty and the melted cheese mixed with the ranch just put it over the top. Well done. Can’t wait to come back for another one.“

“BEST PIZZA IN PUTNAM COUNTY! If you haven’t been here yet you don’t know what you are missing!“

“I was at Traditions last night for Disco Night. It was my first time and I had an absolute amazing time. From the atmosphere, DJ, people, bar statf, drinks etc. I will be coming again to first Friday of the month. Thank you for allowing me to have a memorable time.“

“Ordered sandwiches and antipasto tray for my daughter’s sweet 16 party and everyone said how fresh the meat was. The sandwiches were made perfect they did not fall apart and were cut perfect size. The antipasto tray was fresh as well. First time I went to deli as I’m new in town. Highly recommend. Cannot wait to go back. Thank you to Arthur Avenue Deli!!“

“I'm a Bronx Italian woman who teaches pasta making and three of my maternal grandmother's siblings owned successful Italian restaurants (ever heard of Patsy's in East Harlem?). I know food and I have been living in Connecticut for 8 years and have to go to Arthur Ave for a decent hero. Not anymore. We recently had lunch with friends and ordered from here. My mortadella sandwich with mozzarella and roasted peppers was so good I ate the whole thing. I think anyone who left a bad review is either working for another deli or they've never had good Italian deli in their lives. We're ordering again today and can't wait.“

“This is the Best pizza in Mahopac“

“Very consistent good Italian food. A nice menu. My go to for penne a vodka, chicken sorrentino. They do close early. There prices recently for pasta went through the roof almost no difference between getting a pasta dish or a chicken dish. I would definitely lower the pasta prices, come on pasta is free. But with that being said It is good food but just not a everynight spot bc of the prices“

“So good. My daighter and i are visiting family I havent seen in 20 years and she has never met. First day here we tried this place. What a amazing gem of a place. Excellent chicken parm roll.

The food and service is always excellent as is our usual waiter, Nick. He is great at his job, very friendly, observant, attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. The owner who we recently spoke with on the phone is very friendly and makes you feel welcome and special. If you are looking for a great place to dine in I highly recommend Mezzaluna Restaurant“
