“Best pizza“

“I had a steak & cheese sub, It was good with some good sweet onions in there. Seems like they squirted oil on it though. Would have been better without it. Made me quesy about an hour after. GF got the Chicken Marsala, she loved & devoured it.“

“The food was so good loved the gyros and falafel with tahini sauce ?? Staff are extremely helpful and friendly I recommend it to everyone ??“

“The service was good, but the waitstaff were very busy. The lady came to me twice, apologizing for delays, before she came to take my drink order.The food was excellent. The tortellini soup was fantastic and the Angel hair Alfredo was great. The chicken was okay, next time I’ll try without the chicken.“

“We went early on a Friday, we made reservations to make sure we got a table. Service, ambience and food items were amazing! Alcoholic drinks on point, tuna app and bread melted in your mouth along with the short rib, risotto and pork chop! Tiramisu was light and fluffy. Jeff our server was attentive and very knowledgeable as well. Definitely going back!“

“Didn’t get a before photo but the after photo tells the story!! The Market Al Fresca in Tewksbury - four cheese lasagna - I don’t usually comment on other peoples lasagna because I like mine BUT this was absolutely delicious, so tasty and packed with cheese. Half of this tray fed three adults (it’s about a 6x9 tray) I can’t wait to try some of their other dinner offerings! I might never cook again!!! And they had gluten free offerings also. Of course I left with just baked bread still warm snd dessert as well. TRy it out I don’t think you will be disappointed!!!“

“The place is small but so ain't I you go in there and eat they feed you and feed you and you will take a doggie bag home the food is fresh it could be just like in Sicily hospitality of the owner and the waitress and the cook it's just so personable and the price is right I'm going back tomorrow and I was there today....“

“This is our new GO TO place! We are Italian so we are hard to please when it comes our Italian dishes. This place is the BEST Italian (home cooked) meal! You will not be disappointed! Fresh, tasty and service was great also! Make sure you make reservations as they book up quick! You will NOT be disappointed!“

“Delicious meal! Had the Shrimp Verdicchio, so good! Had a pistachio martini and it was amazing, it had finely chopped pistachios and chocolate on the rim. Alexander was our waiter, he was so nice! Very attentive and courteous. Made our dining experience so enjoyable. I recommend the Lemoncello cake for dessert, it was very good. Cannot wait to go back!!!!“

“Awesome good!!! Great service!!!“

“Went here on a Friday night. A nice cozy atmosphere that was relaxing. Wasn’t too crowded. The crowd is older which I love.The food was great and well priced. Felt like a great value. They have a lot of different Italian dishes, and combos if you want to try different things all at once.Bread and oil to start!The waitress was extremely nice, and she genuine and attentive. Don’t get service like that many places anymore.Parking and getting out of the parking lot when it’s busy can be difficult, but worth it. Just be patient.“

“Went there thinking classic Italian. Boy was I wrong! So many Mediterranean dishes, amazing steak and STRONG drinks! Calamari was tender and delicious, prime rib rare as you want it, and the Mediterranean platter with hummus, grape leaves, and everything else amazing!!!“

“good pasta and turkey clubs“

“We went here on Valentine's Day for dinner. Food was amazing! For an appetizer, we had fried calamari with hot peppers. For the main course, I ordered Pasta Gamberi with Shrimp and hubby enjoyed Chicken Cacciatore. For a drink, I enjoyed an espresso martini. I enjoyed a Pistachio Ricotta Cake. Highly recommend and would definitely go back!“

“Since I started ordering from Spinners. I don't order take . Out anywhere. ,else. Great food. The last item I ordered was spaghetti and eggplant It was so good. Everything I order is delicious. Polite always get my order exactly right Great drivers.“

“Balducci's is one of the better pizza joints in the area. I would consider it to be slightly underrated. If youre looking for a decent italian slice, give them a shot.Pizza is thin, not too crispy, with good flavors all around.Note to owner: Please season your french fries heavier.Vegetarian options: Veggie toppingsParking: Free parking lot“

“Great family oriented affordable dining, primarily pasta/sauce/protein meals, but with a pleasantly surprising sub menu of that famous, trademarked Broasted Chicken and JoJo Potatoes cuisine (which I prefer to enjoy at home by take-out). If passing through the area, take advantage of a stop at a classic that locals have come to rely on regularly for a superior family meal experience, dining in or taking out, or meeting with others for a shared dining experience.“

“Good to see this small gem of a restaurant made it through COVID. Family run. Tucked away in a small strip mall. Unusual menu of Italian and authentic Argentinian dishes (my wife and I have been to Argentina). We all started with Empanadas, choice of 6 kinds. Two are sufficient for most people. Choice of baked or fried (we chose baked). Very good. My wife had the Canelones ala Bechamel (stuffed crepes). Very good. My son went for the Salmone alla Jesica (cheese stuffed salmon). Very good as well. I had classic Veal Florintina. Again very good, but too large a serving. Unusual for us, we went for dessert. My son tried the Copa Stracciatella (a chocolate chip gelato), my wife the dulce de leche Flan, and I had the Connoli. Excellent. Extensive wine list. Bottled beer only with an interesting Argentinian beer. Good service.“

“Love this place! Super excited to have so many vegan options.“

“Good parking behind the building. Greeted by Lisa slash waitress very friendly helped us with menu .We ask about menu and opening and closing time. I had the steak tip Bennie,Steak, which was a 9.5 taste sweet and good-sized eggs that were soft with a Portuguese like muffins .“

“We tried this Edifer Pizza last night. We ordered two small pizzas and a chicken burrito - takeout. We were happy with our order. The burrito was solid, and I liked the hot sauce / salsa that came on the side. The pizza had a crisp crust and was very cheesy. Online ordering with Toast was super easy, as I use that for other local restaurants and already had an account. The staff was friendly. We will go again.“

“Feels like a swanky Boston restaurant but in the heart of Haverhill. It’s our new favorite place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We come here quite often. It is very good. We like the homemade pasta a lot. Services is always great. I'll is OK. It's like a café. The new location is a lot fancier but the original location here the chef will allow changes. The new location will not.“

“Very scrumptious and busin busin. Lovely place to eat and have great pickles for the side. 10/10 would recommend“

“Drove 50 minutes to meet friends we haven’t seen in a while, only to be told upon being seated we had only 90 minutes. All through meal an underlying sense of being rushed. No offer of dessert or dessert menu, just told someone was waiting for our table. Minutes later waiter started clearing glasses, silverware off table in front of us. Food was very good, too bad experience was“

“I've been a bunch of times. Never disappointed, everything is delicious.“

“We have been going to George's since I was younger and before it moved to it's current location and the pizza is still as good as it was years ago.Parking: Can be hard to park when the other businesses are getting deliveries. But as far as I am concerned the parking is a small issue for great pizza“

“Big shout out to Romano's ordered my usual Chicken parm with ziti dinner and also ordered a chocolate milk, it was forgotten when delivered driver was back here in 5 mins with my choc milk. That is good customer service and there house dressing is just so good .“

“We were in town for a graduation, and this place popped up on my search. This place did not disappoint! The drinks and food, WOW! Be prepared to eat like your grandma is feeding you because you will walk away satisfied and full. Thanks for an amazing experience. I will definitely recommend this location to friends who are traveling into Boston.“

“Have lived in North Andover for several years and had first visit for a birthday tonight. Staff is awesome, food was great. Highly recommend for a cold night or if you just want a really good flatbread. Will definitely be back!“

“I went there yesterday evening, and ordered a shrimp and broccoli for the first time and was glad I did. They have nice portions and garlic bread, that comes with the pasta. I’m looking forward to trying out more of their other menu’s selection.??“

“I found this pizza place through my Happy Cow app, as my husband and I are vegan (and good vegan pizza is so hard to find)! The ordering process is super easy, you just order at the counter and they bring the food right to the table. The girl at the counter (wish I got her name) was super helpful and knowledgeable about their vegan offerings. The food came out pretty quickly and was fresh and hot and soooo delicious! We had only ordered a salad and a pizza with vegan cheese and some veggies but we're excited to come back and try some of the other dishes as well!“

“This place is the absolute best. They are always consistently great. We have never had a bad meal, and they go above and beyond. I'm pregnant and they made me a pickle pizza that was delicious, and just what I needed. You're missing out if you haven't eaten here.“

“Had a great Friday dinner at Scola's. All 6 members of our party enjoyed the quality and quantity of the food, and our server, Emma, was a delight. Our hostess was friendly, and accommodating to an increase in our party size, when a birthday surprise family member was able to join us. We tried: Vegetarian Lasagna, Pollo Bellimissa, Chicken Milanese, and Haddock Fish Fry.“

“Walk in. Delicious. As usual.“

“We had a wonderful birthday dinner! The Tots were perfectly crunchy, and the Bruschetta Flatbread was fantastic with fluffy bread but a crispy bottom. The Chicken Piccatta was delicious, as were the Steak Frites. The portion size is unbelievable, so make sure you're up for leftovers! We finished the night off with a giant slice of yummy Carrot Cake, and Brianna even lit a candle on it for us.“

“Food, drinks, and service were all excellent. Returned for the 2nd year in a row on our anniversary, and if you specify that in your reservation, you're surprised with free champagne on your table when you arrive. My only gripe is that the high top tables have no backs on the chairs making it uncomfortable to sit there for a long time. If it wasn't for the back pain inducing chairs, we would've stayed for another round of drinks.“

“2nd time here. Outstanding all around. Made reservations but had to change the time slightly. We were initially seated at a table that we did not prefer. So the staff changed our seats to a much better table in one of the other rooms. Service could not have been better. There were 4 of us and no one was disappointed at all with the food ordered. In fact just the opposite - we all loved everything we ordered from the salad, warm bread, entrees and dessert. We will be going again!“

“Lowell House of Pizza is a neighborhood favorite. If you grew up in the Acre neighborhood of Lowell circa 1990's, you remember George's pizza restaurant. Lowell House still serves George's pizza and it tastes just as good now as it did back then! The owner of Lowell House is a super friendly guy and is super dedicated to his business. Great overall pizza shop in Lowell.“

“I’ve been here a few times and do not have any complaints. I get the Maggie Delight it is always so fresh and the chicken always perfect, never greasy. The basil infused mayo is amazing! I mean look at that sandwich! I meant to take a picture before I ate half…10/10 and have called this place the best place to get an amazing sandwich. Also their Mac and cheese bites are delish!!! :)“

“Yummm! Love their sweet sauce pizzas“
