My youngest had the spaghetti and meatballs, which was also delicious! I highly recommend eating here! The place is cozy and offers all the comforts of home. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Thank you for such a great experience!

To start, I ordered the mozzarella bruschetta, which was fantastic. I also tried the house special panini — it was flavorful, though the bread was a bit thicker than I usually prefer. The panini came with French fries, and honestly, the fries were the standout of my meal, even more impressive than the delicious bruschetta. They had the perfect mix of a soft inside and a crispy outside, and I highly recommend them. I'm not sure how well they’d hold up if taken to go, though. As someone new to Pen Argyl, I was very happy with my experience and hope this place sticks around! I’ve also shared a photo of the bruschetta—hope it makes your mouth water! You’re welcome.

The bread was extremely soggy, and I had just picked it up—it hadn’t even been sitting out. Very, very disappointing. I wouldn’t even give it one star. The last time we ordered, it took an hour and a half to receive our food. I ended up going to the restaurant and waiting inside for 30 to 45 minutes. We told ourselves we’d never go back, but decided to give it a second chance. Unfortunately, it was just as disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend going here.

Our GPS showed we were 26 minutes away, and we were told the pizza would be ready in 20 minutes. However, when we arrived 26 minutes later, my wife paid for the pizza but was informed it would take a few more minutes. After waiting for 10 minutes, I went inside to check on the status, and my wife mentioned she still hadn't received it. I returned to the car, and it took another 6-7 minutes before my wife finally came out with the pizza. What was supposed to take 20 minutes ended up taking 42-43 minutes. We definitely won't be returning!
