My husband and I went there last night. It was part of the Brewery Card I had purchased. It's an hour drive so we have never been there before. I was really impressed. The food, service, price and atmosphere were spot on. my husband ordered the special which was Prime Rib. It was about 16 oz. He said it was delicious. I had the Tortellini with ham, mushrooms and sausage and it was amazing. It had such good flavor. My husband and I both said on the way home we wish it wasn't so far away because we would be frequently visiting. There is nothing near use that even compares. Thanks again for making our date night an enjoyable one.

I ordered the cacciatore and it was very delicious. Food was incredible. I couldn't believe the size of the beer samplers. Tony was very friendly and pleasant. This is the best ristorante italiano. Definitely coming back.

What a great restaurant for Italian and more. The food was excellent and fast, prompt service. Tony the chef was awesome... Remembering 8 orders without tablet was brilliant. Great music too.. not to loud. Will return.
Thanks Chef!!!!

This restaurant is a real hidden treasure! I'm from NY and am rather picky about Italian food. Chef hits the nail on the head every time. I've been here a few times now and have tried different things each time.

Our first time here, brought by family. The food was amazing. I ordered the Chicken Cacciatore. No photos, with apologies, as the food and company distracted us. Ample portions. Will have to save room for dessert next time, as I'm a sucker for Tiramisu. We will return. Molto bene!

The food was phenomenal. We didn't have room for dessert so now we have an excuse to come back soon. We were pleasantly surprised by the beers. Both the kolsch and the pilsner hour the shot. The prices were really good too.
Amazing small restaurant with really friendly owners. Definitely will be back

I was a tad reluctant to make a 40 min. drive for a romantic birthday dinner, but Buon Appetito is a hidden gem and did not disappoint! I could not understand why it wasn’t packed. If you want authentic Italian, this is the real deal. Restaurants in Italy have a casual no-frills cozy feel much like this one because the focus is always the hospitality and the amazing food and reasonable pricing! The owner and chef Tony is a true paisano and takes his dining experience to a whole new level.
This restaurant is my new favorite and knocked it out of the park with every bite from the complementary bread, fresh squid appetizer, eggplant special, traditional chicken parmesan, and dessert (cannoli and tiramisu). Their pasta is perfectly al dente with a thick but very basic fresh tomato sauce, just like the homeland. Deliziosa! (Delicious) HIGHLY recommend if you love Italian food. Thank you to Tony and his wonderful staff for taking me back “home” on my birthday! HIGHLY recommend. I can’t wait to come back and try some other entrees. Buonissimo!

My wife and I were staying in Gettysburg and wanted some good Italian food for dinner. Saw the glowing reviews for Buon Appetito and decided to make the drive over for a late Sunday dinner. I saw reviews by Jenna and others suggesting the atmosphere needed some updating. The exterior is not what you'd expect. It is a little dark inside and could use sprucing up in areas. However, I'd still call it fine dining. It has a huge dining room (and a new patio) with white linens under glass tops. It was not busy when we were there and Tony the owner and chef was also our server. He was very friendly and attentive and gave great advice on food selections. The mozz sticks were creamy. Marinara was bold and flavorful. I had the cannelloni and wife had meat ravioli with a meatball. Flavors were great. The pasta was fresh, cooked perfectly and had just the right amount of chew to it. We were very happy we made the drive.
