In town for a weekend baseball tournament and one of the dads on the team suggested Verona as having great pizza and the best cheesesteak in PA. As a lover of both we (my wife and son) decided to give it a try.
this place was hopping! clearly one of the most popular pizza places around because there was a non-stop stream of customers coming and going, many of whom the staff seemed to recognize by name, which I always like, and greatly appreciate as good business practice.
Although we waited nearly 30 minutes for two pizzas (and nothing complicated ... a large margherita and a small cheese w/pepperoni), it's was worth the wait. The food was delicious, hot, and oversized (at least the large was). Other customers at adjacent tables ordered steak & cheeses which also looked amazing!
Unfortunately two things happened in the 45 minutes we sat in the store which knock my rating down a bit. First, unrelated to me and my family's direct experience but still worth mentioning because it leads to a bit of advice, two take-out customers were given the wrong items & had to return to the restaurant to have it rectified. The owner rectified it, and was very apologetic, but my advice to anyone choosing Verona: open the box before leaving the restaurant. I get it, mistakes happen, especially on a busy Friday night, but twice in the same 45 minute span is just a little careless.
The second thing that bothered me, and much more than just a little bit (admittedly this is my pet peeve, but it shouldn't be happening INSIDE a restaurant), were the amount of FLIES buzzing around the restaurant and which we had to continually swat away from our food. Really gross, really annoying, and something the owner definitely needs to address with some types of traps, fly paper, fans, or something. I think if I lived around here and Verona was our "go-to" I definitely wouldn't be eating-in again ... take-out or bust.
So, that's my advice ... definitely go (although it does make me wonder how many flies there may be in the back in the kitchen area), enjoy the food because it was really good, but it's take-out or bust (just verify your order before leaving).
