“Been doing delivery & pick up from Pie's On for years. Live closer to Mario's but prefer Pie's On. Owner is great guy (personable & professional), friendly delivery drivers too. They have really good, tasty food. Love the pizza, salads, steak sandwiches (both chicken & beef) & sides are good also. Foods always hot & packaged nicely.“

“Drove from Stroudsburg and it was Definitely worth the ride will Definitely be making this ride more often its our new favorite restaurant and we are both Italian“

“awesome 👌. great service. great food“

“Our server Andy was like a tour guide from the menu, the history, and showing us the improvements and additional beauty of the restaurant such as the 2nd floor and outside patio. He was very attentive and cordial to make the experience warm and enjoyable. I had the Crepe Valentina and WOW this was top tier and one of my favorite dishes ever! The seafood portions were perfect, the crepe was a lighter touch, and the sauce made the dish delish. And, after trying the Sangria Blanco, I had to get a 2nd one, which was perfectly crafted. I was born and raised in the LV, and with all of the restaurants coming in and out of the area, this is definitely one that I hope becomes a mainstay!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Orchid Steakhouse in Bethlehem, PA. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt high end. The star of the evening, however, was our server Tony—friendly, attentive, and never made us feel rushed. He struck the perfect balance of professionalism and approachability, making our dinner feel relaxed and enjoyable. As for the food: absolutely delicious. Every dish was flavorful and clearly made with care. The steaks were perfectly cooked, tender, and seasoned just right. The sides and appetizers were equally impressive—fresh, well-portioned, and beautifully presented.“

Rhiannon,Danielle and the rest of the servers and staff will take great care of you when you visit. Like I said the food is awesome too. I recommend the Chicken Paresaro that is magnificent aswell as there other dishes, and there canolli are a sweet treat that you'll love after your meal.

“We have loved going to Teresa’s for years. Last night was so disappointing. Waited forever for any service at all. I ordered Chicken Marsala. I don’t think they had any marsala. Bland as could be. I don’t know what happened but it was totally out of character for them and we seemed to have met with resistance on everything. ☹️“

“What do I say about Vesuvio's... I love everything💛 Grew up on their food ever since I was a small child. Local pizzeria where you can get take out or dine in..harder to find good places where dine in is an option other then fast food. Was always and still is me and my family s first choice for a good pizza too.. the place is under its second owner and they know how to do it right. Great food, great prices and friendly staff with terrific customer service. that s why myself my family and alot of my friends have and will continue to go there.“

“the marinara sauce is top of the line and should be in every single supermarket, it brought me back to 4 years old and helping my grandma with the sauce. I truly am sold on it and will be a reoccurring customer for life haha 🤌🏼“

“I have been ordering from Ray's for over twenty years, from way back when they were located on Pennsylvania Ave. The service is always great and the order is always ready on time. Some of my favorites over the years are the cheessteak stromboli, sausage rolls, steak sandwiches and of course the famous pizza! The food is always tasty and freshly made! I plan on ordering from Ray's for many years to come!“

“My husband and myself were losing sleep thinking we’re never gonna taste Chef Paulo’s food again. Lol true story! And then we read that he was coming to The Wood Stone Country Club….so we made reservations asap and brought his parents who were big Aca Mia fans. The place is picturesque and the tables were beautifully set apart. The large glass windows on the one side overlooked the beautiful scenery and greens where we watched a couple that got married ride around in their club car… fun! The wait staff was friendly and attentive to our needs. The server was very personable and we shared our wedding stories together. I felt like I knew her forever! Great gal! We ordered drinks and the Caprese salad (ON STEROIDS!!!) to share …which as you can see in the picture is literally enough for 4 people as an appetizer. I would go back just for that. Our meals were piping hot, fresh and didn’t disappoint in portion size. I like to call it HEAD TURNING BIG! Amazing flavor in all our dishes! This is a MUST for all … a dinner that will not disappoint! Make reservations NOW!!!!“

“2/26/2025. We ordered two pizzas to be delivered. One was plain cheese….second one was a meatball pepperoni combo. Our order arrived very quickly. Pizzas were hot and ready to eat. We loved the quality ingredients. The crust and sauce set the stage for a very tasty bite. Crust was baked perfectly. It had great texture, flavor and the right chew factor. The delivery person was wonderful too. Bellas has been and will continue to be our go to for incredible pizza.“

“Very good at the time of eating and just seeing 1 single waitress covering the entire service at different tables makes me think that they need more like her with her discipline to teach young people, she was already 1 older person but very efficient, for her we will go again to enjoy with our palate!“

“We ordered takeout last night. The food was nicely packed, exactly as ordered, & delicious! Upon arrival I was greeted, staff was pleasant, & friendly. The nice lady ringing me up complimented my nails I had just gotten done earlier that day in celebration of my birthday today l. She wished a happy birthday & gave me a free slice of cheese cake. Completely unexpected but so caring & thoughtful for the added special touch. Thank you for making the day a little a brighter! 😊“
