Food was great and portion size was very large. Nice people. We had 6 people for small birthday. They assisted with cake and helped with cutting cake and extra plates. Prices were good đđđđđ

This is a real hidden gem. They donât advertise a lot. The food is fantastic. Service is great. Try their prime rib. Youâll never go anywhere else. Fantastic food.

Used to be such a great little spot. This place was absolutely terrible. Probably one of the worst restaurants we have ever eaten at. Food was so bad. Service was so bad. Atmosphere so dingy. Do not eat here.

Vegetarian options: There are plenty of things on the menu that would serve for a vegetarianâs delight
Dietary restrictions: Basically everything is made with the conscientious thought of dietary restrictions
Kid-friendliness: They are super kid friendly. Thatâs waht food is all about comfort, and bringing people together. They have high chairs, and will go the extra mile with their kids menu, and cute little cups. Catering to the children.
Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp to accommodate
A true âold schoolâ Italian restaurant with incredible food, friendly and knowledgeable staff, historic atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Donât miss it if youâre coming through northeast PA!

Everything was very good. The waitress was wonderful.
First thing I noticed was when we sat down every glass on the table was dirty. The service was not good, one waitress was nice. But the other was very rude and seemed like it was a bother for our table to even be dining there. Mind you, we were a large party so I understand it can be a bit much. But we called a bit ahead of time to make sure they were ok with us coming and they were. Then after a couple baskets with a few pieces of bread (mind you we were a party of 13) they came and said that they ran out of bread for the entire week. Which is crazy because I asked a different waitress and suddenly she shows up with more. Took about an hour and a half to even get the food. The food was not great at all and extremely overpriced. Nothing tasted fresh. Then after that we got the check. On the menus it said with parties of 10 or more there is an 18% gratuity automatically included in the check, which is fine. We don't mind. We had a couple separate checks, and when we got them the gratuity we were charged was 20%. I will never go there again. I can't believe I spent 90$ on a mediocre meal for me, my husband and my 6 year old. Will never go again

Food was not fresh, terribly overpriced. The only good part was the martini. Friendlys would have been better and had more authentic Italian food.
Dietary restrictions: My mushrooms came in a puddle of butter

Went there for a 95th birthday party. Salad was dry, and there was very little dressing. Chicken wasn't very appetizing. However, the roast beef and mashed potatoes were very good. Wait, staff was excellent and accommodating.

Didn't know this place existed. Looked up local places to eat and it was close by. Tucked away at the end of Charles st. In Luzerne. Parking on the side and two doors up is a full parking lot. Nice interior. Clean, decorated nicely. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, talked with the owner for awhile. Was very well taken care of. No empty glasses or plates left forgotten. Found out they have a banquet hall that serves 80 or so. The restaurant is over 100 years old was family run until recently but they're using all original recipes and desserts are made in house. Food service was quick and very good. Large portions. I had the specials of the day, my husband had pasta with meatballs and we ended it with delicious creme brulee. The prices were very reasonable. We will be returning with the family.
