Calarco's Lounge
4.3 / 5 (1741 reviews)

Description

Calarco's offers a charming dining experience steeped in over 90 years of family tradition. While the restaurant's pasta and meatballs frequently earn high praise, recent mixed reviews highlight a menu inconsistency, particularly concerning misleading dish descriptions. Some patrons found certain items lacking in flavor, suggesting enhancements like garlic for improved taste. Despite occasional service delays, the warm and welcoming atmosphere, combined with hearty, flavorful dishes like lasagna and Italian sample plates, make Calarco’s a beloved choice for casual dining. For those craving authentic Italian cuisine in a nostalgic setting, Calarco's is a delightful destination worth revisiting.

Although I would normally give you 5 stars because I have always enjoyed your dinners. Tonight we ordered out. Hubby got the usual spaghetti and meatballs. I thought I would try something different tonight, so I ordered what I thought was an antipastosalad. It was listed with the salads but was no where near a salad. It had maybe 3 pieces of lettuce topped with a huge amountof meat and cheese and probably the biggest olives I have ever seen, and so many. It is very misleading to have this listed as asalad and I really didn't enjoy this at all. I don't know many people who can eat a whole dish of just meat and cheese andolives. Sorry for the rant, but please move this item away from the salad section on your menu.

I headed here with my teenage kiddo on a Monday night figuring it wouldn't be too busy. It wasn't exactly busy but there seemed to be only one waitress and we waited a long time for just about everything. I got their meatball float, which I just LOVED. Iloved the flavor of the sauce and the size, texture and flavor of the meatballs. The bread that came with it was perfectlycrispy and chewy. My son didn't like his Chicken Alfredo at all. I had a bite and it had a strong taste that may have been wine?Not sure. I didn't care for it either. We waited quite a while for the waitress to ever come back to give us the bill. When sheasked if we needed a box we told her neither of us liked it. She offered to bring him something else but by then all we wantedwas to leave.

Great venue with attentive service! Happy Hour runs from 4 to 6 p.m., making it a perfect time to drop by and enjoy the charming small-town ambiance paired with delicious Italian cuisine!

Classic Italian cuisine that offers generous portions and delicious flavors at very reasonable prices. The restaurant has a bit of a worn appearance, but the food more than makes up for it.

I wish we could rate Calarco’s more than 5 stars! When we arrived one of the owners came out to let us know we could sit on the restaurant side. It was quiet and the perfect kind of setting we needed after a long day of travel! The food was excellent. This is a family style restaurant that has been operated by the same family for 90+ years. The owners were kind, welcoming and all smiles. We’d love a chance to come by again!
