“We always enjoyed coming here when it was "Something Sweet". Anna made the best apple crisp ever! Now that it's Piccolo, we love it even more! The soups are ALWAYS amazing, and the new menu is 10/10. The Italian Chicken Stew is out of this world, as well as the Butternut Squash Ravioli. Anna, you are not only an incredible baker, but an amazing cook!!! This is on our regular rotation - highly recommend.“
“While in town for a concert, we needed a quick (but quality) dinner and got this recommendation. Ordered the Taco Combo with chicken, beef and shrimp and it was spot on. The recipe was authentic Mexican and the service was just as warm. Nice find!“
“Considering there are not a lot of options in the area I didn't have high expectations for this place but since they had other great reviews we decided to go. And they did not disappoint, service was great and the food was amazing. Good big portions and everything tasted fresh and came out hot. If you are in the area definitely try this place“
“Alfonso’s pizzeria is the best around. Not only is the pizza absolutely mouthwatering but the customer service between Al and his son oh absolutely unspeakable. If you’re looking for a good slice and a good laugh please pay Alfonso’s visit and I promise you you will never go anywhere else“

“Drove five hours to checking out this pizza shop and let me tell you it did not disappoint.This pizza shop’s pizza is amazing!!!The pizza is super thin and crispy on the side.The pizza is super fresh made.I can’t wait to visit NY for my trip next time.Definitely if you are in the area, you will have to check it out yourself.“
“The best Philly cheesesteak I’ve had around here. Tasted just like Philadelphia Pennsylvania. Other pizzerias put the red pizza sauce on them here In New York. It’s not supposed to have that. They use real cheese sauce & only green peppers!!! I don’t like the red & green mix. The sandwich was just amazing & good, friendly customer service“
“Franco Di Roma is my go to restaurant when my wife and I go out to dinner. Although all items on the menu are cooked to perfection, and I've tried them all, my go to is Chicken Francese with capers. If you're in the mood for a drink, Frank has you covered! Family and friends, if you're in Middletown NY and looking for fantastic pizza, meatball hero or anything good to eat, this is the place! ~ easily 5 stars“
“I ordered the gnocchi which came with salad and bread and it was amazing. The salad was really good with the peppers and olives onions and tomatoes and the pasta had asparagus mushrooms and peppers which I never had before. The service is outstanding everyone is very very polite and kind. They have beautiful Italian instrumental music playing while you eat and tv. I highly recommend this place to eat.“
“Always a great experience and workers are very friendly all the time. Never had an issue with the food and great service.Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly and a great environment. Located in a good area of Middletown as well.Parking: Always good parking no matter what time of day or how busy they are.Wheelchair accessibility: Very wheelchair accessible, no stairs anywhere.“
“For a New Year's Eve party, bought twelve Mexican dishes. Every one was delicious! All guests were happy with the quality and quantity, both carnivores and vegetarians. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Best Mexican food I have had in a LONG time! I highly recommend them.Vegetarian options: Fresh and tasty!“
“Best pizza, in my opinion, in Middletown!I always get half meat lovers and the other half buffalo chicken. The toppings are generous, and the chicken pieces are perfectly portioned.We also get medium buffalo wings, and they are crispy and covered with a good amount of sauce.Last time we went, we received garlic knots as well. Not only were they delicious, they'll make you smell like garlic for a week ?Give Marco's a try, you won't be disappointed!“
“If you’re in the area and looking for Italian food / pizza, I highly recommend you stop here. We stopped on our way on a trip through New York and we’re so glad we did. Food was excellent, service was friendly and excellent, the place was clean. We would happily go back if we are in the area again at some point.“
“Cheese and pepperoni pizza was great. Garlic knots were some of the better ones I've tried, very soft. Also they threw in some kind of dessert. It was like a sugar powder dough thing and it was great! I ordered delivery and it took a little long so I called to check on it and the staff was extremely kind and helpful and even called back to check in that we received our order. Great customer service!“
“Okay, clearly you are in the food court of a mall. With this in mind, the pizza here is more than decent. They had a large number of ready to go options and were happy to customize slices. Addition options include gluten free pies, stuffed pizzas, and pastas. Good option if you are in the mall.“
“Food was delicious don't get me wrong but the caprese salad wasn't near what I expected based on the traditional experience. Then a manager came and asked what happened I replied with caprese salad is normally medallions of tomatoes and mozzarella with a basil leaf on each. This was plum tomatoe slices pilled like lettuce and miniature mozzarella rings and slices of basil and very little balsmic glaze with a side of balsamic dressingal and he says let me see what I can do. He comes back and says I took half off next time tell me at the beginning. I will return again because the food is phenomenal with the hopes of them making adjustments to that dish.“
“The stars I give are because the food is fairly good. I have gotten a number of things and the results have been fairly inconsistent but mostly good. I took one star away because of the inconsistancy of their opening hours. They advertise on google that they open at 11 am. I asked specifically when I went in what time they open, they said 1pm. More times than not, they are not there until after 2pm..(for instance today they got here as I am writing this at 1:44pm) I would think that as a local business that counts on a healthy reliable crowd for lunch and dinner you would be consistent with your hours. Now on to the food: Cold Subs: Decent, nothing to go crazy over. Bread is soft and fresh, light on the meat, but satisfying non-the-less. Hot Subs: I have had the sausage and peppers and a cheesesteak & Chicken Cutlet - all were ok. The meatball Parm was ok, but standard frozen tasting meatballs. Stromboli: Delicious, you get to choose 3 ingredients to add and they do not skimp. Just ask it to be cooked longer so you don't get any raw dough. They use a ton of cheese so the dough sometimes isn't cooked through. Pizza: HUGE! Fairly good too. My children think its the best pizza they have ever had...they are kids and have shitty palates, that being said its still decent pizza. Eggplant Parm: though it's been a while since I ordered the eggplant parm it was very good. Thoroughly enjoyed! Burger: Don't do it. I'm pretty sure they are frozen, but they are so overcooked they do not even have any moisture left in them. They are honestly disgusting.(unless you enjoy dehydrated meat product, if so carry on!) Salads- Overall very good, a nice balance of vegi's and a healthy amount of meat when added. The grilled chicken can be weird sometimes. It can be rubbery-tough-and crunchy all at the same time. It gives me a not real meat feel sometimes. Probably slightly undercooked and cut with the grain so its just too tough to eat. Most times the chicken it good even if its slightly dehydrated.“
“The food just isn't the same with the new owners. The cheese was barely melted and the crust and bottom were very light. Garlic knots were like small dinner rolls and included and added hair. Not to bad, but not the same as the OG joeys pizza.“
“they were great they let us split a meal right from the kitchenDietary restrictions: if you get the salmon or the shrimp scampi you can actually have a meal with a lot less calories and still enjoy a meal here (I suggest going easy on the bread though)“
“in town for a work trip so i stopped by John’s for lunch, THE BEST FOOD i’ve had in a LONG time. not only does the food look amazing but tastes even better ! 10/10 recommend and can’t wait to visit again ! only remembered to take a picture of the pizza bc calamari & garlic knots were gone in minutes ?“
“I’ve been going to Frank’s for years and two things stay the same the pizza and the garlic knots. They every time are to die for and the service is fantastic. If your shopping in the area this should be your food spot as it is mineVegetarian options: It’s pizza soParking: Lots of spotsKid-friendliness: Kids like pizza“
“We moved to Florida and we wish we could bring Cuginos with us. Well actually, don't judge... but we have packed up food to fly home with us a few times! We CRAVE the food and we look forward to dining here every time we visit NY. We love everything we have tried but a few of our favorites are the Pizza, Garlic Knots with Cheese, Thai Chili Wings well done, hot honey espresso slice with pepperoni, Eggplant Parm, Chicken Parm and Penne Ala Vodka. We have ordered trays of the Penne Ala Vodka and Eggplant Parm in the past as well, and it's a guaranteed hit at parties! My husband has always said you can put their Vodka sauce on a shoe and it will taste good. It's a family owned and operated restaurant. The owner Maria is an absolute gem and the staff is friendly and attentive. The restaurant is always clean and nicely decorated. This place remains at the top of my list and the quality of food is highly deserving of the best rating!“
