We went in for an early dinner and our server forgot a lot and took forever to get to us. There was like no one else in there and our food took ages. My oysters were brought after my entree...dishes not cleared away. The chicken Caesar was strangely sweet? Like a blend of honey mustard or something.. it was weird. The chicken was so dried out it was about a minute away from turning into jerky. The margarita pizza was oily, at first I thought it was olive oil maybe as a garnish but why on top of cheese? They used shredded mozzarella instead of fresh buffalo so basically it’s a cheese pizza with basil. We ordered a couple of bottles of flat water for the table, and a couple of cannoli to go, totally overpriced. We laughed to think we’d spent nearly $30 on 4 cannoli and $16 on 2 bottles of water. Didn’t check the price so that’s on us. Overall disappointing experience and the food quality was subpar for a gastro pub. That being said, I brought the tagliatelle home for my husband and a cannolo ( that’s the correct Italian spelling for one single btw, since they are so adamant about using italian spelling for broccoli “rape” ??.. which is freaking weird, my husband, from the Veneto/Lombardy region of Italy, said he spells it broccoleti di rapa.. so that’s an interesting spelling choice on the owners part) he enjoyed both but the pasta was a bit bland. The cannoli were great, so I added a second star for the decent pasta and great cannoli.

As a cheesesteak enthusiast, I was anxious to try the "Jawn" advertised as a pound of prime ribeye on a freshly kneaded roll with caramelized onions and Cooper Sharp. The roll was fresh and warm, and yeasty, but more like pizza crust than the high end Italian rolls one finds at the best cheesesteak joints. Onions were perfect. Cheese was kind of skimpy. The beef was high quality and free of gristle..but a POUND? Maybe 8oz. MAX before cooking. I've eaten several pound steaks, and this ain't one. Fries were very high quality frozen, served piping hot in a cute mini fry-basket. Wife's wings were crispy and didn't get soggy in the plentiful hot sauce. Drinks are very reasonable and staff attentive and friendly. I guess the "Jawn" is a kind of novelty, and the price may reflect the beef grade as opposed to weight. Adorable atmosphere. I'll return, but try the Italian dishes where I suspect they excel.

First time coming here it was a great experience we had salads and the upside down pizza. The pizza was exceptional it was like one you would find in Italy. The crust was thin and crispy. The salads were so large I took half my poached pear salad home. It has great atmosphere my only complaint is the tables for 2 people are way too small. A Salad and pizza plate couldnt fit on the table.The wait staff was very friendly too. Will definitely return.

First time dining since the old GHP and was amazed at the beautiful transformation. Service was fantastic, the menu was a nice mix of options at a reasonable price, and the food was delicious. My friends and I enjoyed everything we tried. Would recommend for families and groups.

We have been to Exit 13 many times. The food is wonderful. The pizza is thin and crisp. The Jawn is big enough to share. It's made with a pound of ribeye and CooperSharp cheese. It is amazing!The bread is made in house using the same flour that is used for the pizza dough. Alessandro was our server. He was very attentive. The wine list is small but the choices are excellent. Desserts were good. And I finished my meal with a wonderful limoncello. Looking forward to our next visit.

Fourth visit so we obviously like the place. Really diverse menu leaning Italian. We had the cheesesteak (Ribeye) and Abruzzi Cheeseburger which were both outstanding. Kudos for the hot fries. Good beer choices. Service is friendly, but like previous visits is slow. Every time we have been there the place has been very busy so that certainly speaks well of the establishment and probably explains the service issues. If the service was better I would rate higher.

Coming from NYC, I wasn’t sure if I would get lucky and find good pizza in Bryn Mawr but not only I found delicious pizza, I also found the best Philly cheesesteak sandwich called “ the jawn”.Service is excellent and decor is fun and light hearted. Definitely a must try!Parking: Plenty of parking available in the front and side of the buildingKid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly in terms of access and food choices

The owners are extremely gracious, the entire staff was kind, welcoming, and warm, not to mention the food. I had their house-made bread, pepperoni pizza, and crème brûlée cake. All three were incredible! The best part of the experience, however, was seeing how much fun and joy was in the restaurant in their entire team, especially the little bundle of energy named Natalia!
Absolutely fabulous restaurant! Had a girls night out and we all loved the place. We all loved our food, the atmosphere, service and attention to detail. Planning on bringing my husband back for dinner very soon.

Hidden gem in Bryn Mawr. Their pizza is exceptional, it’s made exclusively with imported Italian ingredients. Is clear that the owner cares and has attention to detail. Try their
Great find! Wish we tried a pasta!! My husband & I sat at the bar. I had an old fashioned, he had a IPA. Grilled calamari was delicious, beet salad, and the recommended pizza scarabeo. Arugula arugula- everything looked so good we couldn't make our mind up. ( that's why I say wish we tried a pasta) every dish we ordered had arugula ( which is fine) we both love arugula, just wish we switched out the pizza for the pasta! Definitely would go back!

The food is well above what I would think of as Gastrobar-level. It's not pretentious - just perfectly executed. The varied menu made it difficult to choose what to eat. I ended up with the Burrata appetizer and the Risotto with Scallops. Both were delicious. Nice selection of wines and cocktails. Incredibly genuine hospitality from the team. Can't wait to go back.
