11 Best Italian Restaurants near Lake Ariel

“Wooooow What a Gem! This pizza was exactly what I wanted tonight. Very large, yet thin slices. A very solid mastery of pizza fundamentals. The prices were fair and the food was great. The shop itself is not huge, so maybe don’t plan on showing up with 20 guests, but there are a few tables outside. The shop is impeccably clean and the staff were very friendly. The food was ready exactly when they said it would be. Try a specialty pizza! Oh, and cash only, with an ATM on premise.

Parking: A little tight if on a busy night.“

“Best food I had by far“

“? PIZZA DID NOT DISAPPOINT! ?
First time customer, here but it won't be my last. I ordered a large pepperoni, x-cheese, light sauce($17.xx). I forgot to ask for the pepperoni to be on top of the x-cheese BUT that cheese is so buttery, I didn't mind ? Crust is good and the outer crust is almost like a crispy breadstick. Sauce isn't overly or under spiced. Owner isn't tech savvy and the credit card machine was down. He seemed very old school and definitely Italian lol. I have read several of the other reviews and assume they're just Karens, because he seems like an older no non-sense type of guy and they probably just have thin skin. ANYWAYS... My family has a new favorite local pizza spot. NOTE: We have tried most(maybe all) of the pizza places within the a 10 mile radius and this is hands down the best pizza we've had! ?????“

“Great food and easy parking lot pickup! Everything is fresh, homemade, and very reasonably priced. Great service and Pierre is a pleasure to talk with too! It’s a real gem of an Italian restaurant in Carbondale.“

“Back on 2012 I would to go to John’s every Monday night for All you can eat pasta with my late husband and 4-6 other family members dept who was at our house or available. Going there wasn’t the same without him and they were so kind as to send a tray of pasta and a tray of meatballs at that terrible time but I went sporadically. Well today Nov13 2024 my new husbands and I were in the area and went to John’s. It was nice to be there and the food was sooooo good like it was back then and the service was as it always was Great! I was so glad we went. there were a lot of new faces. But I did ask for Michelle and heard she is there yet. Keep it up John’s. (Ezra and Anthony wouldn’t remember me but Adrianna would I hope to get there again soon!!“
