What Heather Dunmoyer likes about Cafe Valentina:
I grew up in this restaurant, watched it change owners and names! My mom worked there , I have as well!! And I have not found an Italian restaurant that can beat them.. moved to slower lower and the Italian food not the same.. this is THE BEST FAMILY ITALIAN RESTAURANT U CAN FIND!! Guisepppi and Futuna of u see this please open once at the beach !! Miss ur food and ur amazing family .. love ya Heather View all feedback. What Jacqulyn Murray doesn't like about Cafe Valentina:
The food was average - I've had better and worse. The portion size was large, but the sauce was lacking and it wasn't heated throughout. I took a chance eating it, but luckily I didn't get sick. There was a fee for using a credit card, but it was only disclosed upon pick up. I prefer not to use cash at restaurants as it's easier to avoid reporting income. View all feedback.

Highly recommend the eggplant rollatini! Deliciousness!!

Nestled in the heart of the neighborhood, this family-owned Italian restaurant boasts a welcoming atmosphere and a committed staff. While patrons rave about the fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, and irresistible garlic rolls, opinions vary on the overall food quality. Many dishes have been described as average, with some lacking seasoning or precise execution. The interior appears in need of a thorough cleaning and updating, while a few service hiccups have left customers frustrated. Despite these shortcomings, the establishment has potential and a dedicated following who appreciate its warm service and homely vibes. With adjustments, it could reclaim its status as a beloved local gem.
