This was a good damn steak!!
Happy we struck gold.. we will be back.

“I used Johnny Paisano’s to cater a holiday party. I had an amazing experience from the very beginning. I spoke with Christine who helped me place the order, and helped me to decide the best options for my menu. One of my options was a prime rib, where I received a phone call from Johnny himself to help me figure out the best way to prepare it for the party. When it was time to retrieve the food on the day of the party, everyone I dealt with was friendly and helpful. Johnny once again came out and was talking with me about the food. I appreciate this aspect of a business, it makes you feel like you’re in a friendly environment, rather than a sterile kitchen. The food quality was amazing. Every platter was delicious, and every guest was happy with how the food turned out. The prime rib was the largest hit, not surprisingly. I couldn’t believe the value of everything as well. Please use Johnny Paisano’s for your next event, they will not disappoint at all, and will go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are met!“

“Burrata in Havertown never disappoints. Can’t go wrong with specials.“

“Best food and customer service in Delco, hands down. If you haven't tried Fourno and you live in Delco, you're missing out“

“Always good. Easily the best restaurant in DelCo.“

“Wonderful food and service was amazing. Our servers Linda and Brenda were awesome. Will definitely be back. It’s our third time here!!“

“Food was so delicious! Wonderful outside balcony seating! Great service? love this place!“

“Some places serve food. Others serve something deeper.

In a town like Havertown, where connection isn’t just a word but a way of life, Julian has quietly built something special. Not loud, not flashy, just intentional in all the right ways.

From the first bite, you feel it. Appetizers that are fresh, thoughtful, and honestly hard to ignore. Entrées that go beyond flavor and land somewhere closer to care. There’s a depth here that mirrors the community itself, subtle, refined, and rooted.

And the octopus? Perfectly prepared. The kind of dish you’d expect in a Michelin-star setting, yet somehow it feels even more meaningful here.

Because what sets this place apart isn’t just technique. It’s heart. Every flavor carries that unmistakable Havertown spirit, warm, connected, and built on something real.

This isn’t just dinner. It’s what happens when food meets community in its purest form.“

“One of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time! Everything was delicious. Roz and Rocco's chef is a pro, and the waitress was congenial, and on point! The restaurant is a whimsical, eclectic blend that combines a traditional "family home style" celebratory vibe showcasing the owner's Italian grandmother's recipes. I am a salmon snob, and "Roz and Roccos" delivered: my salmon was cooked to perfection with that delicious crispy top layer that I love. The fresh charred, roasted broccoli had that brilliant green color with the right amount of tenderness and crispiness that made it so yummy. Our table of seven agreed that the food was bursting with unique flavors, as we passed around our plates to sample the entrees. Rox and Rocco's is a festive restaurant and I could feel "Grandma's love" with every bite.. So glad we picked this restaurant for Mother's Day.“

“I love Talluto’s. After moving this summer, Talluto’s might be the one thing I miss most about Delco. The food is always incredible. Highlights are the hoagies, mozzarella balls, and stuffed long hots. My mouth is watering as I’m typing this. God, I miss Talluto’s.“

“Piazza Napoli is an all-around great pizza parlor! They offer takeout, but also dine-in, and you can reserve for pizza party. Their delicious upside down pizza is our family fave, yummy inside outs, along with tomato pie. Prompt service, has been consistently ready on time for pick up. (We have not tried delivery.). Menu has so much to offer, everything has been tasty. Give 'em a try!“

“We used Pepperoncini as the on-site catering for our wedding in Exton. Tom and his team did an AMAZING job! Our guests raved about the delicious food. The service by Tina and Alyssa at the event was exceptional. Tom worked with us to plan a day that we wanted. We would 100% recommend Pepperoncini for all of your catering needs. They took our event to the next level. The food is first-class all the way!“

“On our way back from doing a last-minute Estimate We had the absolute privilege of being broken down in front of their restaurant! The owner and staff both asked if we needed anything and offered beverages! Very very welcoming establishment, staff, owner! So amazing to be treated so nicely even though we were an inconvenience to parking! Thank you again for your kindness! Mike, Raniyah!“

“Very good, nice service, comfortable room“

“We are regulars and had a wonderful meal tonight….as usual. The service from Rosy was excellent. She is very courteous, energetic and pleasant. She is knowledgeable of the menu, and explains the specials well. She is attentive, pleasant, and projects a positive image for the restaurant. She is a keeper!“

“10/10 do recommend. Excellent pup cup served. Filled to the top and swirled with love. Non dairy so belly doesn’t get upset. Mom loves their coffee and generally picks up some baked goods as well. I can generally convince her to share. My favorite is the lemon cake.“

“I hosted a family Christmas party here on a Sunday from 11am to 2pm. The food and service were outstanding. Nicole was the point of contact as well as the bartender. She did an amazing job. I highly recommend using Dom & Mia's for your next event.“

“Whenever we drive to NJ from VA, we go a bit out of our way to stop at Botto’s. We always buy sweet Italian sausage links, among other items. The plain cheesecake is to die for, so creamy and delicious. I’m ecstatic that it is gluten free!! Thank you, Botto’s!“

“We just ordered Vesuvio's tonight, for a work party & a celebration for an employee promotion. They let me order off the catering menu same day & we got a half tray of Chicken Parm, Shrimp Scampi Pizza, some Linguini w Blush Sauce (I added crab for an additional fee) & Gnocci with Pesto Cream. Let me tell you, every single thing was perfectly executed & delicious. My team felt so special, getting such great food for our gathering. Vesuvio's never disappoints!“

“Villa Artigiano Ristorante exceeded expectations in every meaningful way. From the moment we were seated, the service set the tone—efficient without feeling rushed, attentive without hovering, and genuinely warm throughout the evening.

We began with the arancini: crisp, golden Italian rice balls, expertly fried and generously filled with tender veal and molten mozzarella. They arrived hot, well-seasoned, and immediately signaled that the kitchen takes tradition seriously.
For entrées, my wife chose the lobster ravioli, bathed in a silky brandy tomato cream sauce that balanced richness with restraint. The pasta was delicate, the lobster flavorful, and the sauce indulgent without overpowering the dish. I opted for the tagliatelle alla Bolognese—wide ribbons of pasta coated in a deeply satisfying, house-made meat sauce that tasted slow-cooked and authentic, the kind of dish that reminds you why classics endure.

Dessert was a shared tiramisu, light yet decadent, with layers that struck just the right harmony of coffee, cream, and cocoa. It paired perfectly with her freshly brewed coffee and my double shot of espresso, which was bold, smooth, and a fitting finale to the meal.

From start to finish, Villa Artigiano delivered an exceptional dining experience rooted in quality, care, and classic Italian execution. Highly recommended for anyone seeking thoughtfully prepared food and gracious service“

“We celebrated a college graduation here. It was an amazing experience. All the waiters and staff were so kind and professional. Besides that all foods were amazing. Also special thanks to Bobby D. you are the best man. We had a conversation about half an hour. Thanks for y'all welcoming attitude.“

“Just had a great experience here! Best customer service I’ve experienced in a long time. Was pressed for time and had entire pizza ready in 5 minutes and it was delicious. Highly recommend.“

“Our local bowling league got delivery from Brothers for our end-of-year holiday party, and everything was excellent! We got pizzas, Italian hoagies, meatballs and chicken parmesan with pasta, and a tray of salad. The pizza crust was nice and fluffy. I hope our league sticks with this place for next year too!“

“The gentleman who helped us accommodated kid and adult preferences, made a fresh pizza, and worked with us sufficient slices at a good price. I wish I could remember his name, but he went above and beyond. The pizza itself was delicious, with thin crust and an excellent combination of flavors.“

“This is the best of the best! My wife and I are very loyal customers and have always felt welcomed. The food is excellent as well as the service!“

“I just made a pizza in my kitchen oven using a Toscana Pizza Kit. Simply perfect! This is the first time that I have been able to create a round pizza with out a rolling pin. The sauce and cheese supplied with the kit are more than is needed. I think I will be doing this every Friday! RGDS, Kevin Koob Springfield, PA“

“My family really enjoys eating at Felinis. We usually end up choosing whatever special of the day is. It’s such a quaint little restaurant and I love sitting by the window and watching people outside while we eat. The peanut butter bomb is a favorite dessert of mine here!“

“We used to order from Italian Delite on a regular basis, then Rize started doing cheesesteaks🎉🎊🎉🎊!!!! I’m not saying Italian Delite didn’t make a good cheesesteak I just think Rize does it better!! So, last night Rize was out of cheesesteak🥹 this reminded me of when my dad took me and my sister to the store and bought my sister a babydoll and didn’t buy me one!!! He told me he didn’t think I would want a doll cause I was a boy!!! Dad, I would leave the light on with George Michael…of course I wanted a doll!!! Oh wait, back to the post!!! We ordered from Delite and the cheesesteak was very good!!!! Definitely didn’t regret it!! The fries here are excellent and don’t forget the Cajun Chicken salad here…it is one of my favorite salads!!! That chicken is amazing!!! So my point…Italian Delite is right on a sold out night!!!! Merry Christmas to all and to all a cigar smoking night!!!!!!!“

“What a treat to get fresh ravioli! And a bonus! They have pistachio gelato. I love the tin ceiling and ambiance. Looks like a place where neighbors come together to enjoy a morning espresso, and get their sandwich or fresh pasta. Friendly service.“

“Amazing food for both dinner & catering events. The antipasta tray is unreal and so delicious!!“

“Terrific experience and service, quality food!“

“Best gnocchi in a rosa sauce! Easy online ordering and super friendly staff.“

“Yesterday, I had lunch with a colleague at your restaurant. The experience was exceptional, and the food was delicious and served hot. Our Waitress, Eva, was excellent. Her service was highly professional, quick and catered to our every need. My wife and I will return shortly, and we most definitely will bring our friends. Excellent job!“

“Fairly new, we decided to give this wine bar a try for Valentine's Day. Cibo Vino is a quiet, welcoming wine bar with house made pasta and incredible specials. Our server consistently checked on us as my husband can down a Diet Pepsi in record timing, and was pleasantly surprised when she'd swipe his glass and bring it back full before noticing. 10/10 overall experience & will be back soon for their entire dessert menu!“

“My husband and i enjoy eating at this fine Italian restaurant together, with family and friends. The restaurant is clean, bright and the staff at this family owned business is very friendly and professional. The menu includes seafood, chicken. Pasta, veal and steak. The appetizers, salads and home made soups are impressive as are the daily specials. My husband has celiac disease and they are very accommodating. The pricing is in line with similar establishments and it is a BYOB witn NO corking fée. We simply love it !!!❤️“

“Fun place with friendly staff. A great selection of food and drinks.“

“have been going here for twenty years never had a bad sandwich or a bad interaction with anyone working for them. I have been home bound and on oxygen for three years now and the kindness the staff has shown when I call to order or the regular two drivers who always take the time to make sure I get my delivery knowing it takes me few minutes to make it to the door is nothing short of amazing. I had a concern today with my delivery and they as usual said will be handled. thanks for always putting your customers first thanks Merle McClintock“

“I enjoyed the food. Ordered a hoagie and Stromboli. Both were excellent. My son and I loved the sauce as it wasn’t sweet.“

“The absolute best food and service we had in a long time 8 persons at our table and every meal got A great feed back. We will definitely make this our restaurant of choice!“
