“I came in with my family and had a great experience. The service was great too, despite the place being packed. They had no problem accommodating our odd requests and everything was cooked exactly how we ordered it. The pancakes are smallish, so order two! We will definitely be back!”
“Insanely delicious and fresh! Swee is the sweetest waitress. Cute and clean inside. Can’t say enough good things. 10/10 recommend. LOVED the pad see ew and fried rice especially.”
“We decided to celebrate a special anniversary at Finellis and couldn't have been happier with our evening! We made a reservation and had a cozy table on this cold January evening. We were greeted promptly and while we were looking over the menu, we were given a pre-appetizer of a pasta & sausage salad in a delicious dressing. We did order an appetizer of "Drunken Mushrooms" to start and could believe how good they were and a very large portion too. We weren't rushed to order and when ready, gave our server, Christi, our order. The salads were very generous and fresh and we enjoyed two of the house-made dressings. I had an Italian vinaigrette which we loved so much, we purchased some to take home. We did ask for some bread or rolls and a basket was brought out. Out of the two, the bread was the best! Then came the meals. . .my wife had Eggplant Parmisan over angel hair pasta which she loved! I had a huge grilled pork porterhouse steak, cooked to perfection and accompanied by red roasted parsley potatoes and green beans in Jack Daniels sauce. The only thing we really didn't like was the green beans. . .was hoping for fresh cut ones and we couldn't taste the Jack Daniels sauce. That was so minor and we had so much food by then, it really didn't matter in the context of writing this review. The entree portions were large but yet totally scrumptious and seasoned / cooked to perfection. For dessert, they brought over a tray of about 8 or so desserts to pick from. . .all homemade by Mrs. Finelli herself! Oh my. . . who could resist? We decided to take a piece of Italian Almond Cake with butter cream icing. . .it was more than enough for us to share and especially after a big meal. The dessert was heavenly to say the least and we ate every bite! Last but not least, a big shout out to our server, Christi. . . .she made our dinner so enjoyable. . .friendly and checking in on us to see if we needed anything, refilling drinks and helping us order the perfect meal selections for us! A big thanks to her and Finellis. . .we will definitely be back soon!”
“This was my first time there and the service(ordering, getting my coffee, and receiving my food) was stellar! The coffee was great(I had a bold roast), and my breakfast sandwich was SO delicious. If you like crispy bacon this is the place. I will surely return to try more of their specialty breakfast sandwiches.”
“I haven’t been able to find really good boba anywhere in Pennsylvania since moving up here and I finally found it! This is the BEST boba tea I’ve ever had, and the two ladies in there are so sweet! I love it there!”
“Recently moved into the neighborhood and ordered food twice… such awesome service and the owner was always so kind and approachable. Definitely will continue ordering.”
“We had such a positive experience here between the awesome friendly staff and the fantastic food. Not only was the food flavorful but the presentation alone was quite pleasant. The duck and the 3 flavor chicken were my personal favorites. I would definitely recommend checking this place out.”
“Good atmosphere, felt very calm walking around and after I left.. don't remember the cashier's name unfortunately but he was very nice and patient and very helpful (young man with long brown hair).. café staff was pleasant too.. just sad they got rid of the cheesecake muffins.”
“Had to try the hotel pizza - pleasantly surprised - quite tasty! Very fresh - crust was very nice, yellow cheese may look odd, but was creamy and worked for the slice well. Wish I lived closer - I’d be stopping for lunch frequently. Look forward to returning. Owner and employees were very friendly, it’s great to thoroughly enjoy an experience in a small town restaurant with fresh ingredients, good people. Neat memorobelia on the walls, too. Exactly what you’d like to find in a small town shop. Well done!”
“My daughter and I absolutely LOVE their funnel cakes. We actually find out where there going to be just so we can stop and get one . The owner is especially nice and the funnel cakes are out of this world. If you haven’t tried one you need to .”
“On the upside: the beer menu is extensive, wings are delicious and space is nice. On the downside: fries could be more fresh and service just a tidbit more attentive. The brick burger did took some time (as indicated in the menu) but was nice. The wings were splendid.”
“Absolutely LOVE this place. They are the only restaurant in town who is consistent be it dine in or carry out. I’ve never ever had a bad meal here. Even during the covid shut down. Everything is always packed with care. Quick, efficient, organized, spotless… I could go on. Friendly, helpful and considerate staff as well even through changes. If I ever get my own place, Lucy is the type of owner I aspire to be! After over 20 years in the biz it takes a lot to impress me but the Athenian Cafe is a true Altoona gem and a must dine!”
“Stopped in with a coworker last week for a drink. I was unsure of the menu and Lee did an amazing job of helping us each decide. Will definitely be back. Need to try out more of the menu!!”
“My daughter, mom, granddaughter and I had a great time! The iced coffee and bagels were amazing! My six year old granddaughter loved getting to choose her ceramics and painting. The owner and employees were very helpful and friendly. The prices were very affordable. We will be going back.”
“Just took my son and his corned for a free slice for getting on honor roll!! Grabbed two slices for the wife and I and they were delicious! Definitely recommend!”
“Love,love,love hubcaps pizza shop,great people running it and food is Awesome! Hoping if selling,same nice people make the food!Parking: GreatKid-friendliness: Nice”
“Really nice place!!! Great service as well, super nice waitress, and overall good vibe. I’m not from this area and was recommended this place for a quick (and delicious) bite to eat. For sure give this place a try if you’re in the area!”
“Had an AWESOME dinner, service spot on with Kierra, the chef was attentive he kept looking out as food went out, which good chefs ALWAYS do that! Check it out folks!”
“The service is excellent. We were seated quickly, and the server took our drink order very shortly after we were seated.The food is delicious. Rice is cooked to perfection, and the flavor of every dish is on point.”
“By far my favorite mexican restaurant in Altoona. Great food food, very authentic. That's coming from a native Californian where Mexican food is prevalent.”
“Mama Randazzo’s is always our first choice when we need catering for a work event! Not only is the staff (Alexa) so kind and easy to work with but she is so passionate about her work and it shows!!! The food is AMAZING! Also they provide table and chair rentals as well as set up and tear down and clean up!!! In one phone call they take care of everything!!! I would recommend them to anyone!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”
“Cal and I stopped here yesterday between appointments. I’m very fussy about my coffee…it was excellent! Our breakfast was delicious, staff is very friendly, and it’s immaculate! We WILL be back!”
“Came on a friday where they had live music. It was fantastic!Got a latte and a yogurt parfait, both were very delicious.It was a little complicated to park, but once you get inside it is very spacious with lots of different seating options.Definitely recommend! I hope they do more live-music soon!”

“Me and my sons love Sal’s! The white pizza and the Sicilian are our go to pretty often. Some of the best pizza around here if you ask me. Dining room is always nice to when we don’t carry out. ?????????”
“My family and I inadvertently went there right before closing and they were just as friendly with us as I imagine they would have been in the beginning. The kids really enjoyed the Stromboli and pizza.”
“I've done both dine in and takeout at Vito's. The staff are always cordial and the service is great. I always gauge pizza quality by plain slices. Vito's is always a 9+........Sauce is a 10 and crust is an 8.5. I prefer slices over whole pizzas as the crust is more done and crispy on re-heats. I've also had pasta and sandwiches here as well and they were great. Currently my favorite pizzeria is Western PA.”
“Haven't tried alot of items so that's why I only gave 4 stars. No complaints on what I have gotten. Love the drive thru pizza without pre-ordering. Would recommend!”
“the best stromboli i ever had. the crust was amazing. the sauce is delicious. it didnt lack anything. my daughters loved theirs as well. good portion for the price. will definitely be back.”
