Vecchia Osteria

Vecchia Osteria is what looks to be the neighborhood BYOB. Their paper reservation book is large and full, and staff hugs show that there are many regulars. This is not a fancy place, but offers large portions and an extensive menu. The sautéed garlic carrots starter they bring is a nice touch (and delicious). We ordered the grilled calamari which were large pieces over dressed arugula. The arugula was dressed minimally and the calamari was over cooked and chewy. For mains, we got the pappardelle bolognese (homemade pasta with an average sauce), chicken francese, and veal funghi (3-sizable pieces covered in mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes). All dishes were good— not great, not bad. We ended the meal with the limoncello cake. It was good, despite it not being recommended by the waiter (that was an awkward exchange). It was a decent meal at a BYOB, but nothing to write home about.

The antipasto was absolutely delicious, and the fresh made pockets of dough stuffed with pear and ricotta in a delicate cream sauce, topped with warm walnuts, were unforgettable on Valentine’s Day. And the limoncello cake was simply divine, especially paired with a perfectly made cappuccino. Every bite was pure indulgence. ✨🍷☕️🍰

Was looking for a new place to try in the area, and so glad we found this place. Service by Giovanni was top tier. They’re a family owned place which is always the best. Literally everything we ate here was AMAZING. We ordered apps, dinner, and dessert. Definitely coming back,

This local, family-run Italian restaurant is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed like family, and that warmth carries through the entire dining experience. The food is authentic, fresh, and clearly made with love—every dish tastes like it came straight from a traditional Italian kitchen. The service is attentive without being rushed, and you can truly feel the pride they take in their restaurant. It’s rare to find a place that gets everything right: incredible food, genuine hospitality, and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. This is one of my favorite spots, and I can’t recommend it highly enough.

On a mini tour with our band, The Scooches we found Vecchia Osteria on our way to performing a concert for Friends Village, Paxson Campus in Newton, PA. Vecchia Osteria is a real gem in Newton! As soon as we walked in, we felt like we were at a restaurant in Italy with their wonderful decor and vibe! Our waiter Toti really added to the atmosphere as he eloquently, went through all the specials of the evening. He served us this wonderful unique carrot appetizer on the house; I really enjoyed the Bronzino and Betina (vocalist/composer for The Scooches) had and a delicious clam seafood dish. We both shared a delicious salad and enjoyed an espresso! Toti is such a professional waiter, sincere, down to earth with warm vibes! Pasquale, the owner and I had a wonderful conversation together about music, Italy and a bit of his restaurant’s history. Observing Pasquale and his staff interact, I got a feeling they work well as a team! A+++ 5/5 stars

My husband and I came here tonight for the first time. We were celebrating our 5 year wedding anniversary. Our server, Alex went above and beyond. The restaurant is cozy and cute, the food portion were great, food was delicious. They even offer gluten free options. We definitely recommend this place for some good authentic Italian food. Make sure to ask for Alex. You won't be disappointed. *picture of food was not gluten free

We held our daughters wedding shower here and Vecchia Osteria was no doubt the perfect venue choice! We needed to make some last minute adjustments to our set up and they could not have done a better job accommodating our needs. Our private area was very nice and beautifully decorated. The service was second to none and the food was outstanding!! Well done Vecchia Osteria and a special shout out to number V & number IV for their exemplary hospitality!!! If you're thinking of holding your private event here, do not hesitate, you will not be disappointed!

Growing up in an Italian family from New York who since lost all its traditions Vecchia Osteria put me right back in my childhood. First time there last night and can not say enough about this place. The food was phenomenal! One of my best restaurant experiences!

Food was outstanding, service very attentive, and ambiance very Italian. Should be on every Local's list!

Came right on time for a 6:30 reservation on Saturday with family. Absolutely mobbed outside waiting. Waited a few minutes and told by staff it would be 20 minutes. Almost 90 minutes later and still no table. This is extremely poor management who don't know how to properly schedule reservations. I left.

Vecchia Osteria is what looks to be the neighborhood BYOB. Their paper reservation book is large and full, and staff hugs show that there are many regulars. This is not a fancy place, but offers large portions and an extensive menu. The sautéed garlic carrots starter they bring is a nice touch (and delicious).

All dishes were good-- not great, not bad. We ended the meal with the limoncello cake. It was good, despite it not being recommended by the waiter (that was an awkward exchange). It was a decent meal at a BYOB, but nothing to write home about.

I was buying at the farmers market and the weather was not cooperating so I decided to come here and try this place I saw on Andrew Zimmern's show. I came alone on a rainy Saturday afternoon and was seated in the corner of an empty part of the restaurant where I was completely ignored even after flagging down servers. I was considering walking out but I was starving. 15 minutes later I got an order of the pasta with crab. While I waited I was served marinated raw carrot ribbons and fresh bread and that was absolutely delicious. It didn't take long for the pasta to come and that was also very good although it would've been nice if the crab was somewhat chunked and not all shredded.. I'm glad the trip was not a complete waste however the service was horrible and for that reason alone I will not return.

We had a get together here following a funeral and Vecchia Osteria was the perfect place for it. The owner had the side room near the outdoor patio set up beautifully to accommodate our large group. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the service was consistently attentive. Staff came out frequently to refill drinks, bring new courses, and check on us throughout the meal. We started with fresh Caesar salads, warm bread, and bottles of wine. The oil and seasonings on the table made for a perfect dipping mix. From there, the food just kept coming. Eggplant rollatini was served in delicate spirals, the crab-stuffed pasta was rich and flavorful, and the rotini in vodka sauce was absolutely amazing. I couldn't get enough of it and ended up forgetting to grab a picture. We finished with coffee and a unique almond tiramisu that had a really nice nutty flavor. Every part of the meal was fresh, delicious, and made with care. Vecchia Osteria made a hard day feel comforting. Thank you to the staff and owner for a truly wonderful meal and experience.

Haven't been here in awhile and was glad to see it was still packed on a Saturday night but still didn't have to wait long for our table. The room we were in, for the most part, had tables for big parties - 8 to 10 people at each and they were full. The wait for our dinner was also very reasonable. The Fried Calamari was a little disappointing this time around - although good it was on the dry-side. The Spaghetti Carbonara was as good as I had remembered it and was again my favorite of all the entrees. The Squid Ink Ravioli with Shrimp was a very very good evening special. The Spaghetti and Meatball entree was good. The menu is large but not overwhelming and we look forward to coming back again soon to try something besides pasta. BYO makes it a nice choice too.

Vecchia Osteria has the best Italian food in the area. We've been on three different occasions, but I've sadly never captured any photos. The calamari is a must-order--not greasy at all and incredibly flavorful! All of the pastas I've tried are also great. The service can be slow when busy, but the quality of service makes up for a slow speed. FYI- The restaurant is BYOB.

The food is excellent. The menu has something for everybody. The staff is very friendly. Ambience is little Italy and the Service is nothing short of excellent they must visit plus it's a BYOB. How could you go wrong?

I came here with a big group to celebrate my birthday. The first two things that stand out are the service and the decor! We had the best time in the big room in the back, but every single corner of this place is full of charm and transports you to Italy. Although the menu had so much to choose from, I went with the Fusilli alla Polpa Di Granchio Pasta as a suggestion from our server. It is a plate full of pasta with jumbo lump crabmeat, onions, cherry tomatoes, and a touch of hot pepper in a light pink cream sauce. Although the plate was very tasty, it felt like all the ingredients were blended and put on the pasta. If you want something a little lighter, this could be your choice for a meal. Regardless of your meal, the restaurant was set up so nicely that you got to know your neighboring tables so well. We ended up having a fun conversation and everyone sang Happy Birthday together. And the icing on the cake is that it's BYOB, so you can leave with all the wine in you to make you think you are Italian.

I am a lover of Italian. I enjoy pretty much any Italian dish and revel in finding a new spot I had yet to discover. This past Sunday, we checked out Osteria. Tucked in the back of parking lot the tiny eatery offers indoor and outdoor dining. The staff warm an inviting. Despite my server reminding me of the villain in the current book I am reading; his service was on point. The meals were served hot and promptly, but lacked the umph that we were expecting. They fell above Olive Garden (thankfully) but couldn't reach the bar of Carlucci's The pasta did taste hand made (a plus) but the flavors of the sauces and the skimping on the cheese on the parmigiana were disappointing. Lots of salt. Chef is quite liberal with salting everything thoroughly. I do enjoy having a salad option with meal and of course bread is a must when eating Italian, but none was not offered. We were full, as the servings are plentiful - but sadly left no room for dessert. Vecchia is BYOB, but as others sat around us, it seemed as though "complementary" house wine was provided if asked. (Perhaps perks of being a regular) Would I return, perhaps, but also so many places to try it may be some time before we make it back.

Food is outstanding!!! Pasquale is so welcoming and literally makes you feel like family!!! Our waiters at different visits ( Giovanni and Carl) were very attentive and friendly... food outstanding!!! Had Polo Osteria with side of capellini and side of olive and garlic and food tasted like I was having a dinner in Italy!!! Have been bringing friends and family and it never disappoints!!! Will be back in February/2026 with another couple to share this gem in Newton

Wow! Owner is psycho! One person in our party is allergic to Parmesan cheese. Dinner was ordered without Parmesan but was served with Parmesan. Was sent back, but by the time new dinner arrived everyone else was finished eating. Politely asked if the dinner could be comped as compensation for the inconvenience. Owner came over to the table and started screaming at us then told us to leave. Unbelievable as we have patronized this restaurant numerous times before. So instead of taking $20 off the bill the owner lost a $300+ bill and server did not receive a tip. Plus we will not be speaking well of our experience at this establishment.

This is a great place to go. It is so reminiscent of Italy and it's very authentic food. My partner was very happy with the Bronzino and I heard that's a very popular dish Service is very good

Vecchia Osteria was AMAZING! We went for Mother's Day and felt like we were apart of the family! From the apps to the desserts we were guided by our amazing server who joyfully walked us through the menu! The food was DELICIOUS and the decor was so cute and homey! We also happened to stumble upon the owners on our way out who doubled down on all the hospitality we were greeted with inside! An all around great experience, every bite will leave you wanted more!!

First time here and we got the pasta fagioli, eggplant rollatini, clams casino, rigatoni vodka, ravioli, and lemoncello cake. The pasta fagioli was the best I've ever had, must try if you visit. Other stand out was the eggplant rollatini and the lemoncello cake, I'm usually a chocolate fan but this limoncello cake changed my mind! I got the rigatoni vodka and the past was cooked perfectly as well as the sauce, was not too overpowering. Felt like you were in Italy with the ambiance, very welcoming. Service was 10/10! Waiter was helpful and made great recommendations. In addition, we were served very fast! Will definitely become a staple place

If you are like me and grew up in an Italian household where grandma made Sunday sauce or maybe you are looking for some good homemade sauce but don't have the time to make it yourself - I found the next best. If you are in the Newtown, Bucks County, Pa area the place to go and get your jar of homemade sauce is at Pasquale's Vecchia Osteria or his Aqua e Farina, both on Richboro Road in Newtown. Pasquale's food and sauce has always been raved about - whether the Chicken Parm or a good pasta dish - the sauce is everything. He has now jarred his recipe and sells it in his restaurants. You don't have to believe me, but believe your taste buds.... Have a meal first, fall in love with the sauce & then get some while heading out the door... You will come back for more.... Ciao my friends.

Came across this place after spending the afternoon with my 4-yr old in the area. Moved here from a big city so still exploring areas around us. I haven't heard of this place but it looked rather homey, so we came in. The restaurant is beautiful! We were greeted by a nice hostess and seated immediately. The place seems family owned, small but purposeful. The wait staff was wonderful, gave us recommendations (food can be a hit or miss for a 4 yr old) and we ordered. I have to say, it's been a long time since I had some excellent excellent Italian food. Their pastas were well cooked, their sauces were creamy and delicious. After the first bite, I went to Yelp and realized this is one of the top rated family owned Italian restaurants in the area. And we'll-deserved! I've already been back... for my birthday. Brought my father (who can be a bit picky himself) and he really enjoyed the food and service. Even my leftovers didn't last the night as I had some family stop by later and they ate it all up! This will be a restaurant we frequent for family occasions or just to sit and have a great meal. I look forward to returning again.

We really enjoyed the calamari fritti and thought the roasted jalapenos were a great added touch. Being a gnocchi-lover, my girlfriend really enjoyed the gorgonzola. The manager offered us a carrot dish to mix with the house bread, which was delicious. The veal donatella came with crabmeat side that I really enjoyed. Happy we made a reservation as it was starting to get packed for dinner.

My group had major sticker shock at lunch today. While everything on the menu was between $14-20, apparently the specials were absurdly priced. My ciopiini was $48, probably $15 worth of ingredients. My friend's bronzino was $40 and arrived 20 minutes later than the rest of our group. When I mentioned this to the owner, her response was that I should have asked for the price! That is unacceptable. I think the waitress should have mentioned it when she described the choices. Nobody wants to look cheap by passing on a selection due to the price. I think my friend's bronzino should have been comped and I think the owner should have offered a gift certificate.

Incredible food and service every time! You will need a reservation for all occasions! I always appreciate how the kitchen caters to all dietary restrictions

Food is always fresh and appealing. Service is friendly and attentive. Ambiance is especially nice outside on the patio when weather is warm. Can get a little loud inside with all of the tile surfaces. With so many restaurant choices in Newtown, this is a favorite.

Very hit or miss. No one writes your order down, so it's hit or miss if you get everything or not. I ordered the Orecchiette with broccoli rabe and sausage and it was terrible. It's one of my faves so I've had so much better. My brother had a special with pasta pockets with Gorgonzola and pear with Gorgonzola sauce. It was good. My Aunt had a seafood special with linguini and there was barely any pasta in the plate m. A huge platter of shells. This was not my first time at Vecchia Osteria, but I will definitely fuhgeddaboudit in the future.

Good Food, But it's a political hangout ! Can't read the online Menu it's too small !

This is a family owned restaurant that stands behind its service & food. Everyone and everything was great. Looking forward to taking my family back again.

We hosted a family dinner here on our last night in Bucks County. It was a warm November evening, and we had a table in the garden and a very nice cena. The appetizers we ordered were ... EGGPLANT ROLLATINI (5/5) -- This was one of the best dishes of the evening.  The rolled eggplant, ricotta, and prosciutto was baked perfectly under marinara sauce and mozzarella. CALAMARI FRITTI (5/5) -- The calamari was battered and fried flawlessly -- some of the best fried calamari I've ever had. LONG HOT PEPPERS (4/5) -- These peppers were stuffed with fresh mozzarella, wrapped with prosciutto di parma, and lightly pan fried​ -- crispy and hot!  Very good. Our entrées included: FUSILLI ALLA POLPA DU GRANCHIO (2/5) -- My wife ordered hers with linguine rather than fusilli, which is how we make pasta with crab sauce at home.  This dish itself suffered in a number of ways, not the least of which was cheese in the sauce RAVIOLI DI MAMMA (4/5) -- The house-made ricotta-filled ravioli were delicious, servered in a light pink cream sauce. GNOCCHI GORGONZOLA (4/5) -- Good potato gnocchi are hard to find in restaurants. The house-made gnocchi are very nice at this family-owned and operated restaurant. This dish has a delicious gorgonzola cream sauce. Two veal dishes stole the show: VITELLO DONATELLA (5/5) -- The veal cutlets were topped with roasted red peppers, crabmeat, and fresh mozzarella, served in a white wine sauce. VITELLO SALTIMBOCA (4/5) -- Veal Saltimboca is one of my all-time favorite Italian dishes -- veal topped with thinly sliced prosciutto di parma, and fresh mozzarella.  Here it was offered with spinach and served in a white wine sauce. I asked for broccoli rabe instead of the spinach, which was very good.  My veal was overcooked, which was a disappointment with an otherwise excellent dish. The vegetable of the day accompanying the veal dishes was ROASTED POTATOES (4/5). Service was very good but uneven.  It could have been more attentive. Food . . . . .  4/5 Service . . .  4/5 Ambiance . 4/5 Wine List . . BYOB

Went in shortly after they opened on Monday as a party of two and we were the first customers there. Beautiful place, the decor is so beautiful with a lemon theme and shades of blue. Our server was very friendly and social, explaining everything perfectly and telling us stories. The food was absolutely incredible -- the pollo ai limone with pasta was tangy but not overwhelming, and my friend loved the salmon. The cannolis were to die for, just incredible. I'll definitely be coming back many times, this might be my new favorite Italian spot.

Was there on a Saturday night that was booked and busy! We did end up waiting longer than usual for our table (w/ reservation) however the staff and owner were so incredibly accommodating and really made up for the wait through exceptional service and food. Outside of our wonderful waiter, the owner came around numerous times to check in and ensure we had everything we needed. Food was outstanding as always. Will be back very soon for another fabulous meal!!!

Vecchia Osteria hosted a party for us on Friday nigh. it was wonderful.. all my guests commented about the delicious food and courteous service. it was plentiful and amazing Creacenzo was the cook and his food was cooked to perfection. Anello and Giovanni were our servers. they were attentive and friendly. the entire experience was unforgettable. can't wait to go back and eat again. we were outside, it felt like we were under the Tuscan skies.

Celebrating day 3 of Heather's Birthday, only another 47 days to go.... We enjoyed our Favorite restaurant where the food and service are always Amazing...Thank you Nancy and Crescenzo for always making us feel like family enjoying our dinner in our own home. My lady had the Pollo Sorrentine and I indulged in one of the specials of the evening, Vitello Rolitini... both of our meals were spectacular and of course we had to start off with our go to Caesar salad and Clams Casino... we finished off with Nancy bringing out her mother's Almond Tiramisu for Heather 's birthday celebration song. God how it must feel to be 21 again.. Happy birthday again Baby, Love You

If you're craving genuine Italian flavors, this place is a must-visit! Plus, the portion sizes were very satisfying--great value for the quality. Highly recommended!

I want to give 4 stars, however, the waitress forgot to provide the evening specials. We ordered then overheard another table seated to our left reviewing 4 evening specials with the same waitress. I would have ordered the NY strip dinner however by this time our meals were already fired. The calamari Frito app was plentiful, however undercooked and saturated with olive oil, likely the oil temperature was too low. The complementary bread was cold as well. The veal and clam entrees were very good and one of the service staff even offered to escort my daughter to the restroom so my wife and I could finish eating. Overall I will return, hoping for a better overall experience next time.

Excellent food and service everyone was on que. The garden area out back is a great place to bring friends and family for dinner.

This place seemed like the best option in the area as I tried to plan from FL. After reading reviews and even watching their episode on HBO I decided this was the place. Their portions were huge and it definitely had that close family feel. The little blue cheese pursette dish- cannot remember the name- wasn't on the menu but they still offered it and it was by far the best thing I had all weekend while in town. Everyone at the table that tried it felt it was the best dish.

Reminded me of the small rustic restaurants in Italy. Friendly staff. The owner was very nice and down to earth. Generous with the wine. The marinated carrot appetizer given for free tasted like a lovely mix of olive oil, garlic and parsley. Refreshing. Bread was soft and had the crunchy exterior. Perfect for soaking up any leftover sauce and oils. The purse pockets ( have another name I believe, but couldn't remember) were amazing. Great blend of pear, ricotta and the sauce was creamy, but light. A little bit of crunch with the walnuts. The pollo Anna was good. Has a strong flavor from the legit prosciutto. If you've ever had store brand and legit prosciutto you'll understand what I mean. The sautéed spinach was delicious. The salad was a light and tasty combo of oil, soft goat cheese, honey, celery, shallots? and arugula. Unfortunately the celery seemed like it was turning black and still used. Either way never had that combo and enjoyed. Italian sausage reminded me of my uncles sausage that he would cook in the summer. Great flavor. Overall plates were clean. Oh and don't forget the limoncello cake Loved it. Overall recommend.

I had a dish of pink wine sauce with seafood and it was utterly delicious of flavor and quality seemed fresh- particularly the pasta. Several servers were impeccable with asking and telling us about (too many) specials and making sure we had enough water. Amaretto tiramisu was amazing with flavor and fluffy sweet texture. Specials would ideally be printed out on a separate mini menu or do a QR code if you can or place on website if not too difficult. Romantic setting or family friendly. Family run and they do a superb job. Contributes to make this community and area a more homier feel.

We had an enjoyable evening at this lovely Italian byob. The interior is cute and bright, featuring a lemon theme. The staff were all quite welcoming and solicitous and Our requests were taken care of promptly.The standout in our meal was the perfectly prepared branzino. Moist, well seasoned and just.....*chef's kiss*. It was filleted backstage and we did find a few overlooked bones. We also enjoyed the pasta granchia, tilapia Al limone and pear, walnut salad. The fried calamari was good when you got the perfect bite of it along with the seasoned pepper. Skip the marinara, IMO. The outdoor seating looks like it would make for an even lovelier dining experience, in the spring/summer. All in all, well worth a visit for a relaxing evening out.

Hidden gem in Newtown pa! Byob is a nice plus! From start to finish the meal was fabulous! Service was great and the staff was very attentive. I have gone again since these photos to enjoy my new restaurant find! Pasta was so delicious and couldn't wait to eat the left overs the next day!

Great food for a fair price. We were a party of 6 and everyone enjoyed their meals. I routinely visit the establishment every 6 wks or so and they never disappoint

Having dined at a couple of hundred restaurants all over the country, Vecchia Osteria is probably the most customer friendly and attentive staff of all. Our server Diana was fantastic and co-owner Gennaro expressed his sincere appreciation for our patronage. On to the food. Being an avid cook and as previously mentioned, I appreciate good food. The Sacchettini (Pasta purses) filled with a pear and ricotta filling in a Gorgonzola sauce were amazing. The clams casino were a bit small but the flavor was wonderful. My wife is a conasoure on eggplant rollatini and was impressed with the quality and flavors. Her veal parmigiana was very tender and the portion was huge. My seafood fettuccini with a full lobster tail, mussles, clams and shrimp was unbelievable. Both deserts were very good. This place is a gem that we only recently discovered and can't wait to go back. Kudos to the owners for setting the high standards for both their staff and food.

This place reminded me of an Italian restaurant that I've seen on TV show. The place had pictures of the family and friends who visited the restaurant. The tables are spaced enough for you to move about the restaurant. The food we'll I'm giving it 5 stars and 5 thumbs up . We will visit it again so we can see brother #V again.

I got the Mediterranean salad. It was amazing! Service was great ambience was impeccable. Highly recommend!

I could never count the number of times I've been here for lunch since they opened, but seldom for dinner. I've never had a bad meal or bad service EVER. Last night for dinner, the place was packed! We had reservations and only waited maybe 10 minutes. We were seated in the side room usually used for parties. Since it wasn't booked for an event, they had it filled with tables. I've never sat in this room before. Almost immediately after being seated our wonderful waiter Max appeared to tell us of the specials. We wanted everything! He gave us a few minutes with the menu and then came back to take our orders. At no time was the crowded restaurant a deterrent to a wonderful meal and perfect service. Our only complaint was how incredibly loud it was in that event space plus they had music on which caused the diners to speak over that music. I wouldn't want to sit in there again. Regardless, we loved our dinner. We shared a fabulous special salad of baby arugula, delicious goat cheese, almonds and dried cranberries. It was dressed to perfection! We shared the special asparagus rolentini appetizer, which was 5 stars. We each had grilled salmon that we felt might have been the best grilled salmon we had ever eaten. For dessert we shared a limoncello cake as light as a cloud. Do I sound pleased? Absolutely! I was treating my friend who had never been there before for her birthday. She raved! As it happens, I'll be there for lunch with my friends on Wednesday. I do so very often. Vecchia Osterria has become my go to!

This place is amazing. My family , the six of us had dinner the other night it was the best meal I have had in a while, the whole table felt the same way delicious. We started with the calamari and clams casino they were great. Chicken parmigiana was so crispy and cheesy, my wife had bolognese sauce with Pappardelle. We finished with tiramisu and coffee great meal Treat yourself it BYOB, buy a great bottle of wine to have with a great meal Christian the server was amazing it was like he showed up with everything when we needed it

Overall, the food was ok and service was alright. Ambiance was light (see pics). Nothing was outstanding. As you walk into the restaurant, you're greeted with antiques and heirlooms from the family-owned restaurant's history. Old pictures of the owners and their family add a heartwarming touch and you know you're getting authentic, Italian food. Our server was busy and after we sat he buzzed to the tables around us before coming over to give us menus and take our order. We got the specials of the day: the burrata cheese plate* and the veal. Based on Yelp, I ordered the Rigatoni Osteria. The food was only ok. The plate of cheese was just that: a plate of cheese slices of parmesan and cheddar, salami and prosciutto, olives and of course the burrata. They had a sweet, balsamic-based drizzle. It was ok. The main meals were also ok. The rigatoni was again ok--it was pasta with some sauce I asked for salt. The veal was well cooked but drenched in the sauce so it was hard to differentiate the flavors. We sat in their covered outdoor "garden" area, that was covered with an outdoor tent. The area was semi heated but it turned pretty chill pretty quickly as the sun went down. Would advise bringing a jacket!

This restaurant is by far one of our favorite restaurants!! 10 stars!! The food was excellent. The service was extraordinary. The ambience was to die for!!!

This is THE BEST Italian food in the area!!! Great atmosphere, service and taste!! 100% recommend.

Always great service and excellent food. Beautiful family owned restaurant in Newtown. My favorite restaurant in Bucks county.

Everything from start to finish was fabulous!! We throughly enjoyed our food! Our service was great as well! We had the special appetizer which was zucchini flowers breaded. My 100% Italian grandmother raved about them. We had the calamari..delicious! Our entrees were amazing as well. Highly recommend the Fusilli alla Polpa Di Granchio!!! Can't wait to come back!

What a disappointment:( They squeeze people into this restaurant like sardines. It was horrific! The noise volume was like nothing I have ever experienced in a restaurant. It as if we were at a concert. There were no conversations going on at our table because we couldn't scream above the noise volume. We were forced to speak to the person next to us. I rate the decor 2, food 6, and the service at a 1!! The service was atrocious. We asked for a napkin several times and they never offered us nonalcoholic drinks with our meals. My bfs water had many dirty floaters in it. We were placed in a tent outside. It was drafty. Our table was a plastic picnic table that had paint stains on it. At least they covered this trashy table with a lemon stamped walmart plastic tablecovering. I felt as if these tables should've been in some back alley dupster in South Philadelphia. No kidding that these tables were used by someone painting a room somewhere. I had no idea of this until my boyfriend lifted the table covering up, and we saw the paint smears all over the place. We were a party of at least 10 down to earth people that all agreed it was a terrible experience. We will never go back again. A birthday I will never forget unfortunately
