26 Best Italian Restaurants near Wurtsboro

“What a wonderful find! We are from NYC and have a home in the Catskills, we found Giovanni’s by chance a few years ago and have been coming here ever since. In the Summer they open the outdoor garden for dining and on Wednesday night Giovanni makes amazing personal pizza’s to order from his brick oven, not only great pizza but entertaining to watch Giovanni at work. We are never disappointed in the food or portions, I live his veal parmigiana, tender, not too cheesy and melts in your mouth. The mussels marinara are amazing served with garlic bread for sopping! The lasagne is great as well, meaty in a wonderful tomato sauce. We have never been disappointed! Great service as well. The atmosphere is real mountain lodge, cozy and informal. Plenty of parking outside. The best part is the price, dinner for 4, with wine/ drinks, about $35/ person, very reasonable.“

“I want to preface this by saying I love Olive Garden! It’s one of my favorite restaurants, and I have never had a bad experience there until today.

Everything was fine…quite literally. Our waitress Kya was very polite and attentive. She took our order and made sure to update us on when we should expect our salad and appetizer. Our salad, breadsticks and appetizer came out promptly. But my best friend and I quickly noticed that every ten minutes or so our waitress and other waitstaff would come to our table to check on us. It was rather excessive, however, their constant checking in was being fueled by their aggressive manager Miranda.

The way Miranda spoke to her staff was jarring, abrupt, inconsiderate, uncomfortable, and rude. She could be heard from the kitchen making the dining experience unnecessarily awkward. Her staff handled her behavior professionally. My best friend and I asked our waitress if she was alright. Her response was professional and passive.

My sympathy and empathy goes to the staff and I sincerely hope this was a one-off situation. Nobody deserves to be spoken to or treated unjustly. One piece of (unwarranted) advice to Miranda: to be a good leader is to know it’s more effective and impactful to praise your staff in public, and coach your staff in private.“

“I had the pleasure of being at Destefano's for a bridal shower this past weekend. The food was amazing, the atmosphere cozy and the staff was so friendly - although it was their day off, they served with bright smiles and were very accommodating. I would definitely recommend them for dinner or catered party. Thank you!“

“We have been going here since we moved to Middletown in 2016. Hands down the best pizza place in Middletown. Donaldo and his team are awesome!“

“Caputo’s chicken cutlet gets a 6/10—mediocre when fresh, with a buffalo chicken taste that clashed with the veggies, but oddly better when cold. Their pizza’s solid, a go-to for me, but the rice and beans were bland yet still satisfying. Reliable spot, but not without its flaws.

I always get it delivered“

“I love where I now live in Central NY, but I miss being close to PtR. Have had several different dishes there over the years, always good stuff.“
