It’s a fair restaurant but not above and beyond. They claimed to have gluten free pizza but in reality I was told that it is cooked on the same surface as regular pizza, so there is a big risk of contamination. Our waiter was a little bit rudesuggesting that the gluten “burns off” when in the oven which is concerning considering that some people including me canhave a big problem if they eat even a crumb of gluten. I went with the Vegetable Risotto which was fine. The squash was overcooked and burned but besides that, it was a decent dish. My brother ordered a pepperoni pizza was burned and filled withgrease. The service was slow and below average. The waiter also forgot to give us any silverware even after our food was served.I think the issue may have been that they were short staffed. The picture of the pepperoni pizza in my review is the replacementpizza we ordered and was luckily less burned than the first one which was charred on the top.
What an amazing discovery. As we walked our dogs in the neighborhood, we walked by this adorable restaurant. As we were trying to decide who was going inside the restaurant, this engaging and welcoming, young woman step outside to see if we wantedanything. I told her we were just trying to decide who was going in to get a menu. I followed her inside and got the menu. Weordered and continued on our walk. When we picked up the food, the aroma gave us a hint...This is going to be an awesomedinner. The Lasagna and Garlic bread were better than we had in Rome...Seriously!! Thank you, Donia for your positiveenergy, that enabled us to enjoy a great meal. Have a safe summer. We will return!! Sent from my T-Mobile 5G Device
We absolutely love the burgers here. They're consistently cooked exactly as requested and have been a family favorite for years. The rest of the menu is traditional- but always has some excellent, very creative highlights that are well worth a try. Servicehas been fantastic every time I've been here. Very efficient, pleasant and fast. Dining room can get a little noisy when it'sfull, but outdoor seating and takeout are both available if it's too loud.
We tried the bruschetta, artichoke and spinach dip, the pork and blueberry special, and the chicken salad sandwich. The portion sizes were generous. The artichoke and spinach dip was rich and creamy, while the bruschetta featured fresh tomatoes and basil. The chicken salad was made with large chunks of white meat chicken and crunchy green apple. The pork panini was delicious, with flavors that complemented each other wonderfully. We all enjoyed the crispy, hot French fries. However, I should mention that the pickles, while pleasantly crisp, were among the sourest I've ever tasted. The prices were quite reasonable, with lunch costing us less than $20 per person. The restaurant was very clean, and I would highly recommend trying Petrillo's.
Let me tell you, I suspect this place might have a secret group of Italian immigrants working in the kitchen! The pasta, chicken, and sauce were all cooked to perfection, much to my delight. The interior of the restaurant is charming, complete with a small bar that seems just right for my next date when that opportunity arises. Overall, this place is small, delightful, and serves fantastic food. They also offer a good selection of local beers, making it an excellent choice for a nice evening out with a loved one.
