7 Best Italian Restaurants near Mount Carmel

“I've been going here every Summer for 40 years.“

“You cannot go wrong with this restaurant. I have been going there for the last 30 years. Always a pleasant experience.“

“We stopped at this restaurant on our trip to PA, and it ended up being one of the most surprising meals we’ve had in a while.

It was clear they take what they do seriously.

The food quality was genuinely impressive everything tasted fresh, well-seasoned, and made with care.

The portions were huge, much bigger than what most places serve, and every single one of us had leftovers to take home.

I’ve seen a few reviews mention the prices, but considering the amount of food you get and the quality, it feels completely reasonable.

One thing that really stood out was how transparent the whole place is. The restaurant is run by a husband and wife who both work in the kitchen, and the kitchen is completely visible from where you sit. Which isn’t something you see often anymore.

It’s obvious they take pride in keeping everything extremely clean and organized. You don’t see clutter, you don’t see mess just a clean, well-run workspace where you can tell they’ve been doing this a long time.

The service was friendly without being pushy, the food came out hot, and everything tasted like someone actually cared about making it right.

It’s the kind of place you appreciate more after you’ve eaten there, because you realize how rare it is to find a restaurant that focuses on doing the basics really well.

For a stop that wasn’t planned, it ended up being a great find.

If you’re in the area or passing through, it’s absolutely worth trying! We would definitely come back when we’re in town!

(I love taking the time to write great reviews, especially when we’re still talking about the place on the way home.)“

“Let me tell you about the dough... I never had pizza with perfect best homemade dough. Frank really takes time to perfection his dough. It is not to thick or to thin either. It's literally perfect. Then the sauce doesn't give me heartburn at all. Which is great for me since I have GERD. He also puts the right amount of toppings on which everyone knows I love a good topping. It must be the true italian! 🤌È DELIZIOSO🤌“

“We love coming to this restaurant! Atmosphere and food is awesome! My husband loves their ham and cheese sub. I got a chicken parm sub and it was good but it really needed more sauce and cheese... first time I was disappointed in what I ordered.“

“I got the buffalo wing pizza. When i go to pizza places this is my go to but normally its a mild hot sauce and some ranch with grilled chicken on top. This was more like an actual bbq sauce and was the first time id had it like this. It was still great pizza cooked well just not what i expected taste wise but that doesnt make it bad. I got mozzarella sticks as a side and they were DELICIOUS! Also the waitress was awesome and my buddy Vasily got a cheesesteak and loved it! Id def come back and try more different stuff 🤙“

“We just held a baby shower here on 11/20/2024. Amber did an excellent job handling all 22 of us. Food was excellent! Thank you for accomodating us!!“
