Il Boscaiolo Italiano Ristorante

The food was very good, with nice portions. The bread unfortunately was very hard.
Unfortunately, they only had one waitress on a Saturday night. She is not nice and literally did not talk to you at all. Put menus, wine glass and wine opener on table without saying anything. I had to ask for bread and she never checked in.
I would only do take out from this restaurant.

Tries really hard to be an Italian restaurant, but Olive Garden does it better. No bread served with the pasta to get the sauce up after you are done with their huge portion.

Music is not Italian (contemporary American). Soda is not from a tap, but from a can. You have to ask for the cheese which comes in a dish for self service....

.... and it's baseball on the TV. Is this an Italian restaurant or a bar? The serving dishes even feel like they came from an IKEA and not Italia.

Worst restaurant in Lansdale area. They are rude and racist. They treated customer differently. The old rude lady ask us to wait until our party arrived in full. While letting others to be seated first without whole party arrived. She don’t even gave us an explanation. We will never be there again. Bad service, cheap atmosphere and reckless servers.

Wanted chicken parm. Can not have sauce due to my diet. They would not allow me to get without sauce. Never heard of anything like that. Just no sauce?

The food was excellent! Honestly the best Italian food I have ever had. And our server Kimberly was so sweet. Cannot wait to come back :)

All the dishes are amazing and you will not go home without a box!

My neighbor, Donna M. Recommended this place and she eats out a lot. She couldn’t stop talking about the quality of this Italian food. I had the best Italian dinner I’ve ever had there. Everything was full of flavor and it tasted homemade, not the processed sh_t ingredients most places use. It’s fresh ingredients. The price is far less than what you would pay at other top Italian places in Centre city. Try it, especially the fried calamari. You won’t be sorry you did ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Bring your own bottle!!!!

Wonderful, authentic food served by and apparently prepared by authentic Italian grandma’s. Great service, great food, Italian staples: pasta, baked pastas, seafood, chicken and veal. I think we were the only one in the restaurant on a Tuesday night but it was delicious. Reasonably priced, especially for the huge portions and quality ingredients.

The older woman that works there is very rude and not welcoming at all. She's probably single handedly holding back this restaurant from being very successful. She might be a better fit for the DMV. Seriously! And...No sharing allowed!!!! Even though a single entrée portion could feed two men, there's no small portion option and you can't split it with another person. Quality Italian restaurants offer half sizes and full sizes indicated with a slash between prices, for example 14/23. This way if you get the small size and you're still hungry for more you can get another half size of the same pasta or something else. Who's really finishing these huge entrées? It's not like they're giving them away. This place is still charging plenty for it. The food was fine. Honestly, I wouldn't return even if it was for free. Not worth the unpleasant experience at any price. If they were handing out 100 dollar bills with a free meal and no tip, then I might consider it. And even then, is it worth going here instead of one of the many better Italian restaurants? No.

To make this brief and summarize the dining experience- it was the worst service I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant. My friend and I felt that we were actually bothering the server/possible owner by being there. I’m a local resident going there for the first time and now understand why there were only 4 other guests the entire time we were there. I’m amazed that this restaurant is still in business. There are other reputable restaurants in the Lansdale area - ie restaurant Toscano. Go there. Anywhere but this place. Hate to say that the food was actually good, however, many basic menu items were not available. How does an Italian restaurant not have eggplant parm or rollatini when they’re featured menu items??? Hope this helps other potential diners or maybe even the restaurant owners.

I always get the chicken parm or francese. Me and my parents go to place for good Italian in the area. I love this place. It’s a cozy place. The wife of the chef is the server and she is always take of us. She is loud but she means well!

Veal picata with lemon sauce was very good, I also had a nice caprese salad. Six of us had a great meal for just under $200 plus tip. Very good value!
