“OMG soooooo good. Im a trucker. Only stopped by because there was a mandatory routing of semi trucks off the highway and the detour brought me by this restaurant.. The funniest part was I told the lady behind the counter that the part that sucks is this is probably going to be the best pizza place ever and Ill never get to come back. I ordered 1 piece of cheese pizza and two subs, italian and ham n cheese with xtra sweet peppers.. WOW!!! I've got to get back there.. home made bread for the subs, all top ingredients for the pizza and subs.. Love you guys WOW WOW WOW“

“Best pizza in the Lebanon Valley! Their homemade dough is amazing! I wish they used their homemade dough for subs. But, the sauce to cheese ratio along with the SPECTACULAR dough is a huge hit! I’ve loved this place and their pizza for many, many years!❤️🤍💚“

“I accidentally ordered from the wrong place, but after I found where my food was and had some I was very happy with my mistake. The white pizza had a generous amount of ricotta and garlic and the crust had a nice crisp but chewy texture. The cheese sub was well balanced and was an exceptional value. I'll be back.“

“It's been a while since I been here and it didn't disappoint either. I ordered the Special CheeseSteak and wow, Grand slam again!!! As I said before, Best outside of Philadelphia.

“We recently used Gus Deraco's to cater our Christmas Eve party. The hoagie platters were very nicely presented, with the fixings, chips, and condiments in separate containers, so everyone could customize their sandwich to their liking. All our guests said the food was great. We also got brownies for dessert, which were delicious and festive, too. The entire ordering process was easy and professional and cost-effective, as well. I would highly recommend Gus Deraco's if you are looking for someone to cater a personal or business event.“

“Absolutely amazing experience! This wonderful family-owned and operated restaurant catered our Grandparents Day lunch, and everything was perfect from start to finish. The salad was fresh and beautifully prepared, and the sandwiches and wraps were incredibly delicious. You can truly taste the care, quality, and love that goes into their food.

The staff was so kind and accommodating, and We are so grateful for their outstanding service and highly recommend them to anyone looking for authentic, homemade Italian food and exceptional catering!“

“Love the food and the service. The mini Hawaiian boli, AWESOME.“

“I’m from NYC but I come to Lititz 2-3 times a year. I came in from out of town today and I was STARVING!!! I mentioned I wanted pizza and Nino’s was suggested. The meatball parm hero was EXCELLENT!!! And the salad was a great finisher. Next time I’m in town I’ll be going back.“

“I was very disappointed with Infinito's this trip. I was there at a time when everything should have been fresh. Not so. The pizza selection was low and what was there seemed to have been sitting quite a while. My favorite is the chocolate chip pizza because it usually melts in my mouth. Not this time, it was like biting into leather and wasn't at all moist. We hadn't been there for awhile and it will be a long time, if ever , till we go .back“

“My husband and I are sitting here, while I write this review. The food was delicious, the ladies whom took our order were beyond friendly and just so kind and had a smile while taking our order. I will be coming back here and will bring my boys with me. Thank you ladies for delicious pizza and subs, for having an amazing attitude with us and for making my birthday lunch special even tho we did not mention it! Thank you again!“

“Walked in and they're very friendly and helpful! Food came out fast and it was hot out of the oven. The food was amazing!!! Got a hot buffalo Stromboli. They are not skimpy with their food. It was the perfect amount of spicy, juicy, and delicious! And there wasn't that extra amount of dry crust like other people's Stromboli. Perfect!!!“

“Cedar Grill is one of those small local diners that just gets it.

It’s a regular stop on my breakfast runs especially because my 88-year-old grandpa absolutely loves it, which honestly says everything you need to know. This place feels familiar, welcoming, and comforting in the best way.

My go-to orders are either the breakfast quesadilla (which is huge and packed with veggies) or the mushroom omelette, both consistently delicious and filling. The food is always good, always hot, and somehow comes out crazy fast usually within 10 minutes of ordering.

The service is what really sets this place apart. We always ask for Charla, and she is hands down the best. She remembers our order every time and often meets us at the table with coffee already poured. She knows her regulars, treats everyone like family, and makes every visit feel personal.

A quick honest note: right now, some of the booths and tables are a little run down, but they’re actively working on opening new housing right next door, so it’s clear they’re building toward something bigger and brighter. It’s absolutely not a deal breaker the heart of the place, the food, and the people are what matter, and those are solid.

Prices are affordable, portions are generous, and the vibe is classic hometown diner. If you want fast, reliable breakfast with genuine care behind it, Cedar Grill is it.“
