“Great pizza with eggplant! As I was leaving I saw a display of arancini (rice balls filled with meat and cheese) which I added to my order. They were excellent, highly recommend them! I will ask Luigi to make a few more of these!!“

“Stopped for an early dinner before a visit to Longwood Gardens. All four of us had pizza that was very good. They even had an above average gluten free pizza, if you know you know, this one was tasty. Attentive and great service in a clean and nice environment. We will be back the next time we are in the area.“

“On 9/4/25, I ordered the Chicken Parm. It was a very large portion, and I had enough for two meals at home.“

“Great food and atmosphere!!“

“The manager was extremely kind and helpful. We arrived very late and the kitchen was closed but he offered us a few pizza options and we were more than grateful!! Pizza was delicious and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. We can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu and really appreciate how customer friendly everyone was.“

“The food is absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. We had a party of 7 and everyone loved it. We'll be back!“

“Tonight’s visit was very nice. Our server made our meal enjoyable. Prompt, professional and she enjoyed our cheese jokes. Thank you for a wonderful dinner“

“We ate here last night, we had the best food and the best waiter! It was a treat all around!“

“Excellent service and delicious food at reasonable price for the quality.“

“Gnocchi were delicious. Next time there I'm getting something with meatballs. Friend gave me a bite of her's and it was perfect.“

“Very clean and very friendly. The owner is a really nice guy, he checked up on my son and I and you can tell that he loves what he does very passionate about his food. The cheesesteaks are really good will not disappoint. The sandwich is filled just right so you can eat it and not wear it. The chicken parm sandwich my son tore it up and said it was one of the best ones he has had. French fries are the way they are supposed to be not seasoned or curly just plain great fries. Buffalo wings damn good size not from a baby chicken full grown bird, got the mild sauce and it had a good flavor. Now the pizza! Great crust, thin on the deck and holds really well no saggy slice. True mozzarella not mixed with Provalone you will be able to tell when you taste it, the sauce on the pizza is perfect not sweet or to thick just right. Planning on going back to try more food. Very good menu to choose from and I can imagine it won't disappoint either. This family that runs this place I believe cares about quality to customers, good people, good food what else can you ask for? Next time I'll actually take pics of the food lost track after I bit into the cheesesteak.“

“Nice neighborhood pizza joint. Definitely changed hands in the last few years (no updates to the interior, 90s throwback vibe). Pizza was hot and the crust was tasty. It’s a chill, seat yourself kinda place otherwise take out or delivery works too.

*The menu lists beer options however none is available.

Vegetarian options: Lots of Veggie-Friendly options in all sections.“

“Been coming here for years. Delaware's hidden Italian secret!“

“I was so excited to move to Maryland and find out Nick and Joe's were still in business. N &J was the spot to hit if you went to the Castle Mall.
I have decided to redo my previous review because I never read the reviews before and it looks as if someone is out to sabotage N&J REVIEWS. That is not fair because this is somebodys family who has worked hard for over 50 years. The one thing I will agree with is the girl who answers the phone ,sure does not like her job, she is rude and doesn't like for you to ask questions about anything. I've only ordered delivery because of a car accident so I can't speak on the establishment atmosphere itself. I know back in the day we loved going in because they would speak Italian and we would bring our friend who spoke Italian and the things they would say that they didn't know we could here were crazy stories we loved to eavesdropin. They also loved beautiful woman who they would also speak about but in a great way.
I can tell by reading the reviews and comments that have been on here lately are being made from someone that has a grudge against them and are having people that I'm sure never been there to put bad reviews up. I would ask people to go there themselves and form your own opinion. I've had things not up to par but nothing to do with the taste and quality of the food. I would not being going there for 50 yeara if the food tasted the way the reviews said. I hope in the future people leave an honest review because even if you don't have your own business karma will get you another way . Good luck in the future Nick and Joes ... maybe just critique a few things and maybe have the phone person who is the first representative of your business go to a customer service training course on line because her attitude could already set somebody's 2mind to having a bad experience so then they look at every point of service with not so rose colored glassesI wish your nothing but the best and I just ordered your 2 medium pizza specials one with jalapenos... face 5 star for atmosphere because I'm not going to give bad stars for something idk about

“Our group had a wonderful late evening meal at Caffé Gelato, and it continues to impress with every visit. Parking is conveniently located right outside the door—a rare and much-appreciated feature in Newark, DE. The food is authentically Italian, beautifully prepared, and consistently delicious. What truly stands out—aside from the attentive (yet never intrusive) service—is the care that owner took into designing the dining space. Even though tables are only a few feet apart, there's an unexpected sense of intimacy and privacy that allows for meaningful conversation without concern of being overheard. It's a perfect setting for enjoying a relaxed meal with friends or loved ones. Dining here always feels like a family meal, elevated by expert preparation—and best of all, someone else handles the cleanup! One of our traditions is taking desserts to go and enjoying them at home with a cup of coffee. Since their desserts come with gelato, the waiter thoughtfully brought the gelato to the table so we could savor it fresh, while packing the rest to enjoy later. It's this kind of personalized, considerate touch that makes Caffé Gelato a truly special place and a favorite destination we'll continue to return to—and recommend to others.“

“went last night as I got my birthday pak and they were one of the restaurants in the program. I got the Cobb salad and it was very good. I had never been there before and I will be back.“

“We have loved enjoying the delicious food at Cafe Valentina. We have been coming here for more 15 years. We feel like we are dining at one of the finest restaurants in Italy. We were missing Fortuna and Giuseppe for the past six months but finally tonight we had the pleasure to see them at the restaurant. Everyone should come here and enjoy their delicious food. It is real Italian food and they have good prices.“

“Tonight was our first night trying Portabello’s. We had an excellent dinner! My wife had the chicken parmigiana and I had the stroganoff. We shared the chocolate decadence cake for dessert. Had an excellent server named Erica. We will be back.“

“The gluten free pizza is delicious and safe for those with even the most gluten sensitivity! Highly recommend!“

“The sauce is very watery. The meatball not homemade. I was disappointed“

“Going to Tony's is always a wonderful experience. The owners and staff are amazingly warm and friendly. And of course, the food is mouth watering delicious; the very best around.“

“I order frequently from Ciao. I have never been disappointed. The food is always good and leaves everyone satisfied. I highly recommend.“

“We came here on a random Friday looking for simple Italian food and we were not disappointed! We got a Stromboli and a chicken eggplant salad, both very generous and delicious.
Staff was also on point !
-> Be aware small card surcharge“

“We’ve been coming here for years but this is the first time I’ve been compelled to leave a review. We dined in last night (11/30/24). Our food was delicious, but our waiter, Nathan, was THE BEST. It’s so hard to find good help anymore, and he was a gem! I hope he stays around for a while!“

“❤️Oh my goodness! We’ve always loved Casa Italia. Their food is delicious, and their staff are very friendly and courteous. They are our go-to restaurant for ordering pizza and more. So when I saw a FB post asking about pizza place recommendations of course I said Casa Italia! 🙌🏻 🍕 Then tonight we placed a pizza order and what a sweet gift! Surprise Cannolis! 🌸If you haven’t ordered from Casa Italia yet, you’re missing out! Not only is their menu fantastic, but they truly care about their customers. We love Casa Italia!“

“I give them a five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating. I always knew this little shop was tucked in this shopping plaza but I never ever tried. Well let me just say I was missing out. I’ve now tried several different items and different pizzas and all of them have been delicious. You gotta try the BBQ beef cheesesteak (add extra meat and extra cheese) and BBQ chicken pizza. Wow 👍👍. I can tell they get slammed with takeout and delivery orders. Great staff. They’re my new go to.“

“It was really good thanks!“

“Best hoagies EVER“

“Good food. Love the chopped chef salad.“

“amazing pizza would return to area just for this pizza“

“La Mia Restaurant has quickly become my absolute favorite place to order from in Mendenhall. The chopped salad with extra meat is honestly addictive—I’ve had it four days in a row and still can’t get enough. It’s perfectly balanced, super fresh, and packed with flavor.

The pizza is equally impressive—think classic New York-style with just the right amount of chew and crisp. I especially love that they let you choose how baked you want your crust—a small touch that makes a big difference.

On top of the great food, their delivery service is top-notch. My orders always arrive earlier than expected, and the young delivery staff are polite, conscientious, and clearly take pride in their work.

La Mia is consistently delicious, reliable, and a true local gem. Straight 5/5 stars. Highly recommend!“

“We get Brothers delivered and take out. The food and delivery is always good and prompt. On the occasions that I have dined in, the owner and staff have gone above and beyond to make sure my family had an enjoyable visit. An example of this happened when my daughter and I came in for dinner. They made us feel welcomed and treated us like royalty! Absolutely great place that makes you feel welcome. The pizza is great!“

“Second time ordering from here, food is fresh pizza is very good, and buffalo wings were good ,excellent service great customer service.“

“We ordered a cheese pizza with half roasted peppers . We also ordered fries . The food came out hot . The pizza was delicious and the peppers were cooked very nicely . The waitress was kind and very down to earth . We will eat there again“

“A little on the pricey side but all in all a good visit. Ordered the premade pizza (Chicken Alfredo/Cheese Steak). Not great. To be fair, it was end of night, regardless these should have been $1 slices on principle. Real Mozz Sticks, if you have read 1 of my many reviews this is a +. Marinara was tasty & had some seasoning. Cheeseburger Sub was heavy, toasted which was fine but the lettuce was ehhhh… The hot items were piping hot!!! The food was done in under 10 mins, the counter guy was good & … this is the first pizza place that gave me napkins. The little things count!!!“

“It's hard to find a great team nowadays. Rude worker! However, I don't expect to spend $36 on my food and drive 23 mins for rudeness.

They missed an ingredient, and I didn't expect to be fact-checked in the manner I was as if I would lie about a pepper. After offering to go get my food out of the car, she continued to yell at the worker across the counter. She shoved 2 baby long hots in a side cup angrily.

Sorry, but it was offensive after I spent $36 on ONE sandwich, a bag of chips, and a drink. And the guy who made it said I doubt I put them in there. She then told me what sandwich I ordered, and I corrected her and said I ordered this with extras, so maybe you're confused. My food absolutely came with long hots. I've been eating the same thing for 20 years. ?

I use to FREQUENT this place, and they knew me. I'm the great tipper, especially around the holidays, because they were so nice! I miss the old crew!“

“Enjoyed the chicken tenders which were perfectly prepared! Nice size portion with moist meat inside and a super delicious crispy coating on outside. Excellent choice. The spaghetti and meatballs is also an excellent meal and very large potion. Very tasty sauce and the meatballs are tasty and moist. Two excellent choices!“

“I ordered a build your own stromboli with 1 ingredient wrong and was mad at myself for forgetting the ingredient and settled for what I was getting. The manager said no I'll make you a new one I want you to be happy. I couldn't believe it it. When it arrived it was amazing so I highly recommend this seasons 5 stars“

“Just face it most of the pizza in Pennsylvania is God awful. I am from New York so I know what I’m talking about. If you disagree with me it doesn’t matter because no matter what you are wrong. Bravo is ONE OF TWO places that I can honestly say the pizza is up to NY standards. The cheese is high quality
(Grande probably) and the pizza dough is spectacular. The guys behind the counter are so nice and bust their behinds so you can eat well. Show your appreciation for the good food and hard work Bravo provides. Love your pizza guys! Makes me feel like I’m home! Thanks so much!!

Vegetarian options: Get a salad, get some pasta, get some cheese pizza, it’s a pizza shop! Of course there a vegetarian options!

Parking: No problem

Kid-friendliness: Of course! It’s a traditional pizza shop. Every kid should be so lucky to have a regular pizza shop to go to.

Wheelchair accessibility: Absolutely no problem for people who use wheelchairs.“

“Love this place go all the time get all the spaghetti dishes the staff great friendly people love it“

“It's a college bar, and you get what you expect. Dirty floor and the atmosphere is clearly catered to 21 year olds. That being said, Grotto's wings are always solid and the grand slam sauce brings it home. The pizza is plain but is done so consistently you always know you can count on the taste and texture. Would definitely recommend if you want to go watch a game and enjoy some quick food.“

“I love their food, but unfortunately yesterday I ordered a spinach quesadilla with sour cream. It came as a wheat wrap, which I didn’t want, and no sour cream. But unfortunately, there was a long hair in my quesadilla. I don’t know if I’ll be getting a quesadilla anytime soon“
