50 Best Italian Restaurants near Emmaus

“The service is friendly and the food was perfect“

“Afintinos has quickly become our favorite pizza shop. The garlic knots are the best I’ve ever had. The garlic they use is so fresh and the knots are so soft. I get these as my main part of my meal they are that good! My son is obsessed with their meatballs. They are some of the best has ever had. Every time I mention spaghetti and meatballs, the first thing he asks is, “Is it from Afintinos?” We’ve tried several of their sandwiches, and every single one has been amazing. Fresh bread, quality ingredients, and tons of flavor. You really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. The pizza is delicious. The crust is perfectly crispy, the cheese is so good, and the sauce is great. Highly recommend Afintinos. This place knows what they’re doing!“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Armetta’s, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a delightful evening. The decor is a perfect blend of modern elegance and cozy charm, making it an ideal spot for both casual dinners and special occasions. Exceptional Service The service at Armetta’s was nothing short of outstanding. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. They provided excellent recommendations and ensured that our glasses were never empty. It felt like we were being treated like family, which added to the overall experience.“

“Left with 2 bags of food today and everything is amazing. Our son asked for food from there after David’s was generous enough to support our HS football program with a meal. Pepperoni bread and meatballs were so good and the bread pudding is every bit as good as it looks. Looking forward to the soup tomorrow for lunch. Really good fresh food, made simple. We will be back…“

“we had the limoncello mules, the fried burrata, the seafood pasta bomb, angel hair key west and the bombilini; OMG, absolutely amazing! we'll be back and will bring friends!“

“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.“

“Love this place Rosa the owner is the best. They make everything from scratch so your order may take a little longer to arrive , the portions are big and the taste is undesirable great like my Italian grand ma used to make. Pricing is between $25-$30 each but as I said portions are big ,you will be taking some home.“

“terrific food in a warm and inviting and intimate dining space! will definitely be back! thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“Food and service are top notch! 💜“

“We ordered catering from this restaurant for an 12:30 AM pickup on Sunday, and they were scheduled to close at 1:00 PM. Without realizing it, we accidentally left behind a cake. To our surprise, the staff called us to let us know part of our original order had been forgotten. Even though they don't typically offer delivery, they kindly offered to bring it to our home after they closed. They went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect for our event. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but their customer service went above and beyond. Highly recommend!“

“I live in Pennsburg which has about 10 different pizza shops. None of them compare to Giovanni’s. I love Sicilian pizza and Giovanni’s has the best bar none. When I order one at my local pizza shop, it turns out to be a regular pizza made into a square shape. Thanks for the care, quality and freshness of your food.“

“Great fresh 🍕 pizza! Owner was very nice!“

“cute place with good traditional pizza. sizes are good and nice friendly service. Its definitely worth the trip.“

“Just had an amazing Italian meal with the best ever garlic knots, spagetti and meatballs. They serve large portions. salad was included. Only opened 6 months. We will be back. Staff was friendly and helpful“

“I’m making it my weekly duty to come in and order anything on your menu. I’ve been so impressed the last few times I’ve gone in. The penne vodka pizza is a MUST“

“Excellent Food, Great Ambiance and exceptional service by Tyler. Best meal I had since the last time we ate at the Melt. I would highly recommend the Melt!!!“

“I’m a lover of food. The vodka sauce is the best in the valley hands down!!!!“

“Great Italian dishes and the best bang for your buck in the Lehigh Valley. Truly a hidden gem that most people think is just a “pick-up pizza place”, but their pasta and seafood dishes are amazing and come with soup or salad and fresh-out-of-the-oven bread with seasoned dipping oil. I’ve heard the chicken parm is to die for, but haven’t tried it yet.“

“Very satisfied. Delicious food all around. Great garlic knots and the sauce pairs well with them too. Got the gyro sandwich which was packed. All good food for the price. Definitely recommend.“

“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 🤌🏼“

“Amazing pizza!!! Exactly how pizza is made in Italy!!!worth the price!!! Quattro Gusti the best!!!“

“very friendly and prompt server. very well mannered. just finished and wanted to make sure they got their due credit. really good fries and cheese steak, can't wait to try pizza next! A ++++ I absolutely recommend!!“

“The staff was friendly and attentive as always. The food is delicious and the portions big enough to take some home for another meal. A good value for the price, especially when you get as much salad or soup and bread sticks as you want. Although it can be somewhat noisy but I definitely recommend this restaurant..“

“This was the 1st time my husband and I have ever visited this restaurant. We ordered the medium cheese steak stromboli which was not only soo delicious but we came home with more than 1/2 of the stromboli which will feed us for a couple more meals.I do want to say that when we were there at lunch time, the employees were also sitting down, having lunch. Everything they had looked amazing! I have never witnessed that before and I thought it was really sweet.Calls were being ordered, people were picking up orders, we were waiting for our order, without any delay. Even though the staff was having lunch, customers were not affected. I really am soo sorry I didn't ask what they were eating, because it looked so amazing and the whole staff seemed really happy!Next time I go there I'm going to order what they are having!“

“God it’s good to have you back we missed your cooking!! I’m sold not going anywhere but to you!! Thank you so much for the friendly face and kindness! Best Buffalo chicken pizza in quakertown period!“

“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. ☹️“

“All of my birthday wishes came true at Pat’s Pizza. Burrata, Calamari, and my absolute favorite - Pasta Flights. BYOB and friendly/fast service. I will never not recommend Pat’s.“

“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!“

“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!“

“I recently learned about cryptocurrency and Forex trading I discovered Ralph Carico, who has been a true blessing since the day I began investing with Ralph Carico.“

“nice corner restaurant. tried the Grandma Pizza, excellent. Fresh dough and sauce. also tried the spaghetti with meatsauce, outstanding fresh taste. Highly recommend this place.“

“Excellent pizza. Very much enjoyed it. I will be back and try dinner.“

“Absolutely delicious! Ordered takeout and We had multiple stops until we got home. The mozzarella sticks were stock nice and crispy and all food still hot. We will definitely be going back.“

“I really liked that today on a Monday that they have a all you can eat buffet for $13.99 and they had Cherry Pepsi. The sodas are only $3 that's cheap. Also you get dessert included in the price of the buffet. That's so Awesome!! Definitely worth that price. The atmosphere is cozy and the waitress was so friendly and attentive. This is a must visit again!! The food was so yummy. Plus I forgot to add you get a salad and garlic bread with the choices. Definitely recommend this place.“

“You have to experience the deliciousness here!! Pizza crust is so fresh and fluffy! Not only is the food amazing, but the customer service is top notch! You will always be greeted by a friendly smile and a warm heart. Check out the large menu options, you won’t be disappointed“

“We hosted our son’s birthday party at a business down the street and I called today to place an order. The gentleman was SO kind and helpful. I was just expecting pizza, chicken fingers and fries but wow when I tell you this pizza is AMAZING, I mean it! Everyone was raving about the pizza and the kids loved the chicken fingers & fries. I’d go out of my way to get this pizza, that’s how good it was. I asked if the food could be delivered at 5 pm and not only did it come about 10 minutes early, but it was piping hot too! Would highly recommend this place! Thank you for all of your help and for the delicious food!“

“The food is Delicious - Best Chicken Parmigiana and Eggplant Parmigiana! So many great choices. Love their sauce. Will be back most definitely!“

“The absolute best pizza in PA and their meatballs are A+“

“My wife and I wanted to get on the motorcycle and take a ride to get some pizza. We picked Mario’s (we’re from the Brodheadsville area). As soon as we walked in the staff was friendly and answered our questions. We just orders 4 slices and some garlic knots. The pizza was fantastic and the dipping sauce for the knots was great!! We can’t wait to try it again!!“

“We stopped for a quick lunch during restaurant week . We were amazed at the offerings. The food was hot and delicious, we even took some home, The server was exceptional, and meeting with the owner was a real treat. We plan to make this a go to place, and will most certaintly be back !“

“Amazing food!!! We ordered cheesesteaks, cheese fries, mozzarella sticks, and Alfredo. Everything was delicious.“

“Highly recommend the wonderful staff and delicious dishes served yesterday after attending a funeral The platters of food kept coming, followed by fabulous dessert trays and cappuccino. Don't miss the opportunity to dine at the Fiorentina Grill in Breinigsvlville!“

“Just moved home after 16 years and this is still the best pizza in Lehigh Valley by a mile! This guy’s been doing it right for over 2 decades, there’s a reason he’s still in business! Nothing but smiles, great service, very welcoming environment! Can’t wait to go back!“

“The only thing I'm annoyed about is it took me so long to try this place. Great atmosphere and the host and server were friendly. Great service. Got the veal saltombucca and my wife got the shrimp parm. Nice portions and the food was tasty. Veal was tender but the dish was a bit salty because of the prosciutto but that's on me. Shrimp was delicious. Loved the huge garlic knots instead of bread. Was able to sub out the pasta for veggies and a potato which were both good. Nice salad as well which came with the meal. Very reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back with the family.“
