I have eaten here a lot over the years. Food is always really good, service is excellent and everyone is always friendly. No problem recommending this place to people even the fussy ones.

This is our go to close to home restaurant and would recommend to anyone in the area. First, it's a BYOB, which is always great, and we have never had a bad meal or service here!
Scott M.4/07/2018Vodka sauce needs to be sold on shelf.... Ever lost in PA you have to come here.... My style cooking in the country... Would drive back from NYC to have this sauce!

I've been here a couple of times for lunch, and they have not disappointed. We live about an hour away and only come here when we visit the fiancé's grandmother, so we don't get to come often. I wish they were closer though! Great food, clean restaurant, never too crowded, and great service. Doesn't get any better! Definitely try the Alfredo! read less

Could be the best Veal Parmesan I've ever had. Super flavorful, tender veal. Pasta cooked perfectly. Really doesn't get better.

A few days later we needed to put together a reception and decided to have Taormina's cater it. The food was excellent, they made suggestions on the amounts we needed, arrived at the location on time, did the set up and they were just great to work with. They had said that they also rent out their restaurant for the next time so that's good to know. I definitely would go back again. read less

She was very friendly and attentive throughout our visit. (Ali, i think) They served warm delicious bread with red peppers while we browsed the menu....food came out in a reasonable amount of time and it was great! We had the vodka rigatoni, pasta taormina, chicken franchaise and past primivera... everyone really enjoyed their meal! (You do have to pay extra for soup or salad though)
We also shared a tiramisu for dessert, and it was delicious!
The dining room is not huge but it is decorated nicely and there is a comfortable amount of space between tables.
Overall it was a great dinner in a cute unassuming place with great service! We will certainly be back. read lessBeth O.5/21/2017Whenever I am in the Philly area, I don't seek out those cheesesteak sandwiches....gimme a decent Chicago Italian Beef any day.

When I am out here, I seek out the sloppy loaded NY style pizzas, in particular the Grandma's pie. We ordered food delivered and I tell you what, I loved their version of grandma's pie. Fresh roma tomatoes, garlic, fresh mozz and crust soaked in virgin olive oil. Quite frankly that's one of the primary reasons I don't mind visiting the Philly, New Jersey area. They got good food. read less

Being Italian, and from South Philly, I'm pretty hard to impress when it comes to Italian food. This place has become our go-to spot for our weekly date nights as well as whenever we want to entertain friends over dinner. The service is very good - we've only had a problem once with getting our bread... But for the most part, service has never disappointed us. Atmosphere is nice, the lighting could be a little more intimate for evening dining, but it's not bad enough to ruin the experience. Prices are reasonable... Not cheap but definitely not expensive. Definitely would recommend this place. My wife and I go there at least once a week. read less

The food was delivered on time by the nicest guy who offered to help me carry everything to the pool area where the rest of my family was waiting.

Such a nice step up from just butter or olive oil. House side salad was also very good. Enjoyed every bite of the best veggie pizza I've had in years if not ever! Crispy crust & a wonderful assortment of toppings. Be sure to ask for the one with eggplant. Can't wait to try the eggplant parm next time I'm in town. Well done Taormina's! read less

Its BYOB which I love. The food is truly outstanding. Last night i had the Risotto Christian, beef tips, shrimp, asparagus, with all the flavors. The risotto was cooked to perfection. My fiance had the cowboy steak. It came in a delicious wine gravy with thinly sliced vegetables. We ordered the buffalo mazarello tower as an appetizer. Its slices of mozzarella and tomato wrapped in prosciutto with drzzled balsamic glaze. The bread is always warm and crispy served with roasted red peppers and onions. For dessert we split the limoncello cake. Every bite had a wonderful crisp lemon flavor. This place continues to rate 5 stars. Fantastic food and excellent wait staff! read less
