50 Best Italian Restaurants near West Pittston

“We ordered the Gramma Sicilian tonight.....Excellent!! The crust was perfection! The blend of sauce, cheese and pesto was the best Gramma pizza I've ever had. The gentleman who handled my order was so welcoming and friendly also! Thank you!“

“Service was great and went with recommendations, was not disappointed. So many great options to choose from and then they have daily specials. I'll definitely go back as there's so much more I need to try. Again, the service was above all the best part. She was nice, friendly and attentive.“

“Drove 2 hours all because I saw a facebook post!!! They did not disappoint.... The buffalo mac and cheese pizza was to die for and was very filling. We tried the buffalo fries... The fries weren't that crispy but still good. The worker could of been friendlier and better at explaining the menu. And wish there was a menu online but still would differently come again.“

“I’ve eaten here several times over the last few years and not only is the food always good, they are always very busy and it never affects their customer service. It is a very nice place to either eat in or go in and pick up something from the counter to go. Tonight I had potato pancakes and a slice of broccoli pizza and both were delicious. I also enjoy watching them make the pizzas in the corner. I highly recommend Antonio’s!“

“One of my absolute favorite family owned businesses, owners at so nice and patient. I’ve dined in and ordered from home. It’s affordable which is a plus for me as a single mom. And the food is so yummy. ♥️🩷“

“Just home from a Wednesday evening dinner at The Refinery. I strongly recommend the kale salad and pumpkin agnolotti. A delicious combination of flavors..... fresh greens with tangy dressing, and the most tender agnolotti with fresh pumpkin sweetness. Good food for the soul, cozy atmosphere, and welcoming staff. Thank you, Kathy“

“Excellent service. Quality menu & food.😊“

“We took my son last night for his birthday and as a family what a wonderful experience! Atmosphere was great. The wait staff is very tentative along with the owner. The food was delicious. We all enjoyed our meals, best penne à la vodka around the area! We definitely will be going back! At the end of our service we complimented how great everything was and we were celebrating our son’s 16th birthday and the owner and his staff came and surprised my son on their own with a piece of cake and sang to him! Genuinely good people!“

“We used Grico’s to cater our wedding and they were fantastic to work with. The catering manager, Marissa, was so easy to communicate with and promptly answered any questions that came up. They had a great selection of meal options and we chose the chicken francaise, blackened salmon with raspberry sauce, and filet mignon. All food choices were INCREDIBLE and all our guests were raving how great the food was. The service was top notch and the bartenders kept our drinks full all night. 10/10 service. We recommend Grico’s to anyone looking for an affordable wedding caterer!“

“One of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time! The place is absolutely beautiful, the food is phenomenal, and the mocktails were perfect. The staff was incredible — warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. And Gabe, the manager, is truly exceptional and made us feel like VIPs. I had the Goat Cheese & Ricotta Cavatelli for my entrée and the Flourless Chocolate Torte for dessert. Everything was just amazing from start to finish. We can’t wait to go back!“

“Excellent spot. I moved to the area from Philadelphia two and a half years ago to open Mountain Wizard Tattoo Company in Pocono Lake, and it’s rare that I find a place out here that truly exceeds my expectations. This one absolutely does.

I’ve been to the Scranton location plenty of times, but this was my first visit to this one, and it did not disappoint. The food was outstanding, the service was excellent, and bartender Joe was fantastic. I’ll definitely be back.“

“My son kept telling me he wanted us to try this restaurant as he lives in the area and he goes there often. It was a hike for us, but we decided to go try it out. There were 6 of us there, and everyone enjoyed their food, but I will speak to what we ordered. My son insisted we try the pizza as an appetizer. I am not really into pizza when I go out to a restaurant, so I was hesitant. When it came out, it was huge. I loved that it was very crisp on the bottom and it was not overloaded with sauce. It didn't have the typical cheese that slides off the pizza when you order it. The owner, Chris, came to check on us to see how we liked it. I thought it was fantastic, but there are a limited number made during the evening so I think you have to get there early. My daughter and I shared the bang bang cauliflower and that was very tasty. There was a lot of it so we ended up taking some of that home. The other appetizer we had were the soul scallops. We all thought this was an amazing appetizer and I loved the combination with the cornbread. We each had a salad before dinner and I personally like the spring mix with tomatoes. It wasn't an overly large salad, but it was a salad was what is was supposed to be: a precursor to dinner. With the portion sizes of the appetizers and the food, we actually ended up taking some of the salad home. My son got the Italian Chicken and Waffles, which was huge. I was give a taste of that and while it was a combination that I did not think would work, it was very good and a creative recipe. My husband had the Surf and Turf Fricassee and he is still talking about that almost a week later. It was a very nice dish and his steak came out the way he asked. He is frequently disappointed when he goes out to eat in other restaurants and is disappointed by how often the steak is overcooked. I had the Alfredo Bay, which again, was a large portion that I ended up taking home and finishing the next day. I was worried that it was going to be a bit too spicy with the Old Bay, but I liked the combination of ingredients so I thought I would give it a try. You can taste the kick, but it wasn't overwhelming thankfully. When talking to the owner, he said that the only dessert they were out of was the Tiramisu (which is one of my favorite desserts). His mom personally makes it so it tends to sell out. Chris.....tell your mother to make more (just kidding). The staff that we interacted with were very personable and friendly. While this was a little over an hour from home, we will definitely be back the next time we are visiting our son!“

“Great food and pleasant wait staff!“

“Best Zuppa Di Clams anywhere! Friendly staff, fair prices and real Italian/Sicilian meals.“

“I went there for the first time on October 3rd. The food was excellent, and the staff were very friendly. Even though they didn't have a mocktail menu, the bartender made one on the fly, which was also excellent!“

“The greeting we received was like coming home to family. The food we ordered was delicious and authentic Italian and it was nice asking their owner for his suggestion to match the wine for our meal.“

“Have always had a great meal and pleasant experience. Anything I’ve tried has been great and desserts are a must (I usually pass on desserts anywhere else…)“

“By far our favorite Italian restaurant in NEPA! Love the atmosphere, the service and the food! Only drawback is we live 5 hours away but stop for dinner @ the bar every time we are in town.“

“We absolutely love Sidel’s! The hospitality at this establishment plus the food & beverages offered are top notch. Thank you to each and every person at Sidel’s who made our dining experience so enjoyable. We made a reservation for 11 guests including two small children to celebrate a special birthday over the weekend and there are no words to describe how truly amazing everything was. Each person went above and beyond the entire time without hesitation. From providing a cake for the birthday girl at the last minute, welcoming all of us like we were family, & bringing toys out for my children who started to get a bit restless, my family and I cannot thank you all enough. We can’t wait to return again very soon! ♥️“

Don’t overlook this place if you are driving by! The bread is phenomenal! The soups are homemade just like mom used to make! Desserts were yummy! Our server Rory was on point, personable and helped us make great choices!“

“Great resturant where food quality is paramont, big portions and good value. Great service led by Maria, Matt, and Victoria. Decor carrys importance and variety, exactly what you want from a resturant- old school family dinners with generational recipes. Order more than you can eat because leftovers are just as deliscious. Ordered enough for 4 even though only 2. Some pics missing food because hunger beat the camera.“

“This is the second time it was dried out. No taste. And the bottled garlic that they are using was so over powering it for Ed it down. And I asked for a little more sauce. When it came. It was all dried. Like it was sitting g under the heat lamp a long time. This is the second time. And it had no taste. Twice . And the prices have gone sky high for. Pasta. 17 for a lousy dish of clams in sauce that had no taste. I’m very sorry we loved co I g here for years. But the food is. O share what it is. Most likely there is no one watching how this is prepared“

“We had excellent dinners tonight at Cork! There are so many options to chose from on the menu. There's definitely something for everyone! My dinner came with sweet mashed potatoes and they were amazing! Our waiter Justin was also very attentive along with the rest of the staff. :)“

“Enjoying a pleasant meal out is always a treat, and Stirna's never fails to impress. My husband and I chose it for our anniversary dinner, and from the moment we stepped inside, the wait staff provided top-notch service, making us feel genuinely welcome. The food was delicious, and those legendary Stirna's brownies are always a must for a sweet treat. Much thanks to Cathy and her team.“

“Napoli's NEVER disappoints. This is genuinely the best restaurant, and it's owned by the BEST family. Authentic Italian food, and you can tell. Always always always handcrafted perfectly. You don't see many authentic Italian restaurants anymore... but this one? The BEST. Anyone who tells you different has lost their mind.“
