Café Carmela Reviews
We had dinner last night, first time visiting and everything was delicious! We had the fried mozzarella, crab Mac and cheese and the bianco pizza and all three of us enjoyed. It was me and my two kids and the staff was on top of everything and Fabrizio was wonderful! We will be back!
Awesome !!! Great Food !!!
My friends and I were heading home from a mini road trip when we realized we’ll be passing by Cafe Carmela. We decided to stop and pick up some cheesesteaks for dinner because it has great reviews for having the best cheesesteak in Northeast Philadelphia and has even been featured in the Philadelphia Inquirer. While I would agree that the cheesesteaks were good, I have to say the customer service was terrible.
I placed an online order for two cheesesteaks 30 minutes ahead...read full review

Café Carmela is a restaurant known for its delicious Italian food. The cheesesteak is considered the best by many, with fresh and tasty rolls. The fried mozzarella and Cooper sharp wit fried onions are popular choices. Customers have enjoyed special items like the drunken chicken cheesesteak, which is available upon request, and the cheese pizza, both highly recommended. The restaurant is often praised for its friendly service and clean, welcoming atmosphere. The caser salads are fresh and well-prepared. The Prov Pie (upside down) is considered one of the best pizzas ever. The cheesesteaks are pretty solid with soft seeded rolls and plentiful of steak and copper sharp cheese. The meat was nice and tender and the cheese was incorporated throughout every bite. The marinara sauce truly was a highlight here and had a great flavor. Arancini and mozzarella sticks were generously covered in parmesan cheese and fried to perfection with a heavenly crunchiness.
