Not only is the food here amazing but the delivery driver went the extra mile to make it right. He had accidentally forgotten our soda but he ran to a deli to get us a new one instead of going all the way back to the store. Jeff is very nice and we’ve gotten deliveries from him before! Love this place !

Ordered the Louisiana Cajun chicken pasta and it was more like a thick pasta soup. The chicken texture was rubbery like fake. Called back to ask why the chicken wasn’t breaded and fried like a different time I ordered it and they said they didn’t know. Disappointing as I will never get their pasta dishes again. Pizza was decent.

My suggestion is only order the pizza!
I got a panini and the chicken was so tough and dry, unfortunately I couldn't even eat it. But I will say I will still be back because the pizza was very good.

I ordered Thanksgiving catering for over $300, but unfortunately, the cranberry sauce and turkey gravy, which were supposed to be included, were missing. On top of that, there was an unexpected $10 delivery fee.

I frequently order lunch from here to my job, my coworkers and i are usually very satisfied when we order from here. The staff has always been pleasant, the drivers are very nice, the girls on the phone are always nice too. My favorite thing I’ve tried from them so far is their home made chicken fingers, they’re so good and hand breaded almost like a little chicken cutlet. I loveee their house made buffalo sauce too! I guess Some days they run out of it and will just give you any hot sauce they have available and that honestly really disappoints me because their buffalo sauce is soo good! Their grilled chicken is also amazing I’ve never had a problem with the quality or quantity of food for the price. The lunch specials are very good deals they come with a little rice ball on the side that are always warm cheesy and delish!

What a terrific customer experience! We ordered extra catering for my sons's 4th birthday party at local play space and what a great job they did! Ordering was easy, they provided extra paper products and the food was simply outstanding. The adults ate like kings! They were so gracious and even included a hand written thank you note for our order. Please give this place your business, this is what Staten Island is all about!!!

This is the place for catering your Italian party!
The food is superb and authentic italian. Portions are good and the staff very friendly.
They have a catering menu but, if you don't see whatever Italian dish you are looking for, just call them and they will make it for you.

They made a stressful day absolutely seamless. They helped set up and the food was delicious. Extremely helpful and listened to exactly what we wanted (and needed because of picky kids). Every person complimented the food and everyone took a doggy bag since they provided us with the perfect amount of food. I recommended them for lunch, dinner and catering prior to this event and I will continue to do so. Thank you guys so much.

I was the there yesterday for a quick lunch. I ordered the meatball parmigiana I had high expectations and was looking forward to eating a delicious meatball hero. It’s unfortunate I did not take a picture of the horrible meatball hero I purchased. I spent $14 and threw it in the garbage after the second bite. I was going to throw it away at the initial first bite but I was trying to convince myself that it’s not that bad. How ever after the second bite I quickly tossed it in the garbage !!!! The main issue was the bun in which it was served the bun was soft thin and soggy. I knew when I grabbed the sandwich something was wrong when there hero went limp in my hand. As I bit into it the soggy bun was horrible. It appears as if they put the hero in a microwave oven to heat the hero and melt the cheese. I didnt go back to return the sandwich because I dont like to fuss but this was absolutely horrible and will never buy another meatball hero from there ever again. Every one knows meatball hero’s are supposed to be baked in the oven and
hero is supposed to have a delicious outer crust. Not this soggy untoasted bun
