Nice casual Italian cafe. Italian decor and music. The fried zucchini appetizer was very good, but the Eggplant Fries were outstanding. Enjoyed the cheese calzone which was enormous and stuffed. Calzone was great reheated at home the next day, too. read more

Food was prepared in a microwave and it was coldddd! Service was not good, it seemed I was doing them a favor by being there! I don't look to be treated like a King BUT when I pay for NYC food I would like NYC food, not microwaved food. My wife does better er in the RV!!! read more

Waitress was rude and couldn't get anything right. Steer clear of the chicken parm it's frozen chicken patties with sauce and cheese. Best thing we had was the 20 oz bottled Pepsi. Still tipped and didn't even acknowledge us or say thank you. read more

The food was good. The service was poor. Add in we ordered sodas at $2.99 a piece for little soda. We got refills but was never told of there was an additional cost of $2.99. So we spent $9 just on non- alcoholic drinks. Ridiculous. Fountain soda. We will not be going g back. read more

ordered the mixed basket appetizer for $13 got 2 teeny Ck fingers, 2 itty bitty shrooms, wee poppers, dry hard sad pierogies, 2 barely there onion rings n needed honey mustard but unfortunately the waitress didn't come back in time. or at all. totally ignored. read more

Don't normally leave a review for a local restaurant but... we reserved a table for my family and had numerous mess ups with drinks and food. The waiter was super apologetic and seemed nice to our faces but when everyone left and I was waiting for my sister to get out of the bathroom, he stated "I f###ing hated that so much" before realizing I was standing right there and quickly walked away. One star for being two faced to customers read more

The pizza and stromboli had the weirdest taste it was like bitter or to sharp tasting i think that was the cheese the pizzas crust was perfect crispy but it had a burnt taste to it and the sauce had no flavor, so it was probably the worst pizza I've had in new holland read more

My favorite place to eat... The food is fantastic everyone there goes out of their way to make you feel at home. I have a service dog and they remember that his favorite thing is a full bowl of ice.that means everything to me that they are so kind to my max who takes such good care of me. I wish that I could give them 10 stars. If you haven't been there you are missing out. The restaurant is spotless the restrooms are clean and I have never had a bad experience tomorrow will be my 6th visit. Compared to the area their prices aren't bad either read more

The food was okay, but when we got home we realized that our sauce containers had melted because they were out on top of our hot food. The sauce was spilling everywhere when we opened it. read more

Carini's Italian Restaurant - Melted plastic, yum! - Italian Near Me - Blue Ball, Pennsylvania

Very ignorant employees that work there. One in particular that choose to park in the handicap parking spot and I said something to him and he was ignorant as anything. And then the owner son didn't seem to care too much. Told him I'm gonna be calling the police if it's not moved the car since it's parked illegally. Took pictures of the vehicle and everything and the guy who owned the vehicle was ignoring her sick. It's a shame they have good food but the employees that work there don't give a shit and the employee son don't give a shit read more

So the food is somewhat decent, never had an issue with it, until today. Ordered something new off the menu. Tuna melt, was so excited because subway was closed and I couldn't get my regular sub. So we ordered from Carini's. I'm expecting a tuna melt with the lettuce and everything on AFTER it was toasted. Absolutely was not. Lettuce was disgustingly brown and chewy. Onions were whatever because I prefer them a little warmer and toasted. The tuna has that sweet Mayo in it. Which is not my favorite but it over powers the tuna taste. I got not super upset but somewhat sad because I wasn't expecting it. Told my boyfriend that I was okay I'll eat it but he insisted on going back. We were NOT MAD, not one bit! We just moved to the area and this is the first Tuna sub that has the veggies warmed up with the sub. He called ahead before heading down there just to see, because if they weren't gonna replace it and make a new one I'll just eat it. They offered to make it new and for free as well. We were pretty happy about that. Until my boyfriend got there. The "cook" which I'm assuming was the owner came out, and put his hands out to my boyfriend and said "don't ever say my foods disgusting". First of all, we didn't say it was the food. We just never seen a sub like that before. So we were a little thrown off. Second of all, don't be grabbing towards someone who just came in about a sub they were upset about but not hostile. Third of all, next time we'll just go 5 minutes more down the road to slice of Brooklyn because I know we won't get that service there. I'm sorry y'all have a "tight nit" facility but y'all just need to learn some respect. Especially the people who take your orders. The woman who took our order was severely rude. I'm sure she'll know who ordered this. Well not be returning. Was nice while it lasted but not worth the headache or stress to order and get nothing we ordered. read more

If you are not from the area this is a small town with a gem . The food is so good and fresh. We started with the Italian wedding soup and let me tell you it's definitely home made and delicious. Then we got the garlic bread with cheese the bread was so soft the cheese was just perfect. The last thing we had was the cheesesteak Stromboli another 10 I am definitely going back. The staff is so nice. I can't remember the name of our waitress but she is amazing so nice. read more

Food is good. The most uncomfortable dining room to sit and eat a meal. When calling for takeout whoever answers sometimes is very quick and ignorant without a thank you. read more

Yesterday evening I placed an order delivery. Food arrived very quickly so we were thrilled. The food was horrible! I ordered Sicilian clams for my meal and it was an ample ordered of clams floating in a greasy broth covered in fresh tomatoes. I was unable to taste the dish as I am very allergic to tomatoes and the description of the clams on the menu did not state that there were tomatoes, it merely said white wine sauce. I also ordered Chicken Buongusto. The chicken is described as being in a creamy Marsala sauce with mushrooms and bacon, sounds delicious right? Negative! The order is huge pieces of steamed or poached chicken breast. Breast are straight out of the package, untrimmed. The chicken is not in a creamy sauce and is definitely not in Marsala wine. The bacon is the type of bacon you purchase when sautéed bits & pieces and was tough and completely disgusting. This pile of horse slop was floating on top of pasta, also not described as part of the order. Sadly for me, gluten allergy and I would have told them to not add the pasta. So, I called the restaurant. When I was directed to the owner & asked politely asked him about the food he merely said, "Sorry to hear that" & hung up. What I told him was that I am allergic to tomatoes and could t eat my food & had to throw it away. He was completely unapologetic & made zero effort to remedy the $63.00 order and I went without dinner. I would not recommend this establishment. The food was not good at all. We ordered a few other items & although they were edible, they were TV dinner quality. read more

We used to love to go here but our last two visits the food was not great. I literally got a chicken cheese steak wrap that had 4 bites of chicken in it, the rest was wrap and lettuce. It happened twice now. Once can be a mistake but twice Nope! It used to be our favorite thing here and favorite place to stop, Do not know what happened but for the price it wasn't worth it either time to eat a lettuce wrap. Please fix it, your pizza place was always our go too. read more

What a horrible experience, we arrived just before 8:30 PM to a restaurant that advertised that they closed at 9:00 PM on a Friday night. We could clearly see the main dining room is closed, all the chairs were up on the tables. We were asked if we were dining in or taking out, we said dining in, the girl said we could only do take out, she handed me 1 menu, I took another one for my wife. We looked over the menu, I told her that we were ready to order, I told her I wanted the Sausage Pizziaola, she said "no hot food", than what the heck are you handing us a dinner menu for. Very unprofessional, we will never go back. The place looks like it was run by kids, joking around, laughing, had no business sense, read more

Decent pizza. I like a crispier crust and baking it a little longer would improve the bite. Next time, I would ask them to cook it a little longer. We had a cheese pizza, white pizza with broccoli, and a pepperoni pizza with onions, green peppers. Ordered take out. It was ready on time. The restaurant should post their menu on their Facebook page. read more

I was just passing through, driving along with my wife through rural Pennsylvania, and we got hungry enough to stop for lunch here. Carini's was a pleasant stop on the journey, with colorful decor, tasty fries, and generously portioned sandwiches. My wife had a cheesesteak, and I had a meatball sub. The leftovers made a good snack on the road. Would eat again. Hopefully will do again. Maybe next time I'll try their pizza... read more

My favorite place to get food. Wonderful people and they make such great food. The pizzas are the best in the area. The meatball sub is yummy. It is the only place i will buy a meatball sub from. The best food in the area. read more

What a nice atmosphere and sweet people! The food is good. Much of it is hand crafted. Their Italian sandwich is second to no one.

Stopped by for take out pizza when driving through from a youth hockey game. Pizza was delicious! So good in fact, we drove a little out of our way to pick up pizza again! The two large pizza special was a great deal! Great food for a great price and staff was very friendly! read more

I love this place. The spirit and food are amazing. I love there boneless wings and Salad. Pizza is great to. I highly recommend this place

I'm not sure about this place. I like the food sometimes but then other times not so much. I normally get a sausage and peppers/onions. The sub is now $11. The price keeps getting higher and higher and the quality is not the same too. We pick up pizza from them pretty often at one time but I can't do that anymore. Why? You ask... I've gotten sick each time. The first few times we blamed it on everything else then them but it has to be them. I'm not sure if it's the dough or cheese but something makes us sick from them. I do want to add when we're eating the food it taste good. No weird smell or taste! read more

Solid little Italian joint. I would say the best pizza along route 23, considering there are so many! I have never had a bad meal from there, so this has become one of my "I'm too lazy to cook" go-to spots. All of the staff I have met are very friendly and polite, and my food is always hot upon pick-up. There is something on the menu for everyone. Carini's has my vote. read more

We used to live in the New Holland/Blue Ball area, and this was the only pizza shop we would go to. There were PLENTY of options for pizza, and we tried many. Carini's was always tops. We even had them supply pizza for birthday parties. Any time we had friends up from out of the area, they would beg to order from there. The cheese pizza is great, as is the Philly Cheesesteak pizza. read more

Use to frequent this shop when I lived in the area. The food is hit or miss. Sometimes it's good, other times bad. Pizza is usually a safe option. If you dine in during the weekend be prepared to wait long for service. read more

Unfortunately after many many attempts at repeating my first wonderful experience at Carini's I was unable to duplicate it. There's no consistency in who's making the food and what they put into it. The amount of food changes and the price of food changes it's confusing to say the least. And....it doesn't taste good. Sorry....a nice couple run the place. read more

Terrible service. We walked in, they were still open, but they had no desire to serve us or accommodate in any way. Told us their grill was off and they could give us cold sandwiches, but I was already turned off by the experience. read more

***Loved this place!!! The food, the service, and the family environment. Veal parm is best I've had anywhere. My husband and I ate a veal parm and spring penne dinner. Definitely recommend it to anyone that goes!!! They have anywhere from pizza to italian dinners and a gluten free menu. Homemade tiramisu!!!! Will definitely be back and thank you Carini's!!!! read more

Friendly staff, a good variety for the menu, reasonable prices, and good food has us coming back for more. Buffalo chicken pizza isthe way to go. read more

Disappointed. This is my Go To place for pizza. I drove all the way here for a pepperoni mushroom pizza, passing other pizza options, because Carini's is usually soooo good. Tonight my pizza was burned and 'orange' from all the pepperoni grease. I opened the box expecting to see melted mozzarella, and pepperoni and mushrooms and all I saw was a over cooked pizza and grease. And pretty sparse on the mushrooms. One slice had two tiny mushrooms. Really disappointed. read more

Gave that place a second try even after the first one was bad, stood in line which was no big deal finally got home order was completely wrong and extra crispy wings were soggy as duck shit... read more

Love Carini's pizza! They have the best sauce in town!

I used to live around the corner from this place, this was a few years ago. At that time I would have rated it 3 stars, but after tonight, there's no way I can give anymore than 1. Went in with my family, the place had one other 3 person family there and thats it. I counted 6 ppl working behind the counter. Our waitress, came and took our drink order, then was back a few minutes later for our food order. We got a kids chicken fingers and fries, sampler, chicken parm sub, wings and fries. Food came out about 10 minutes later at roughly all the same time. The sampler, for $6 was two pierogies, 3 small breaded mushrooms, 2 mozz sticks and 2 onion rings. Wasn't much for the price. The other food was pretty basic, not horrible, not great. My husband said his wings were bland. Our waitress was only seen again at the very end of our meal (other than when she sat at the next table to eat wings with the bus boys) to give us the check. Other than that, we had no service. They weren't busy. At all. Like, the phone didn't ring, nobody came to pick up food, yet there were a bunch of people working, (well, the only person I saw working was the cook) goofin around, whistling, and on their phones. Two couples came in around the time we left, that was it. A pizza place being that slow on a Saturday night should tell you something. The worst part, was our check was $40! For what? This was super duper basic food. Way too expensive for what it was. Between the service and the price, we won't be going back. Ever. read more

Their dinners are sooo good! I was afraid to try them because it was just a pizza place but they were really good! 4 of us went and tried different dinners. Everyone was happy!! read more

Have gotten their pizza and enjoyed it but yuck the Stromboli. Asked them to make a meatball Stromboli which they did. My mistake thinking an Italian restaurant should be able to make a decent meatball, they can't. Store bought frozen meatballs would be better. This also had VERY little sauce just a ton of tasteless cheese. The little sauce there was caused a puddle of water on the plate. Would I get any dish there that required meatballs or red sauce? NO!! I worry now their pizza will stink but I will just try a slice first. read more

After being diagnosed with celiac disease, it was so hard not being able to go out and eat pizza. I love this restaurant because they have a gluten free menu with wonderful choices. My husband loves the pizza too and he doesn't have to eat gluten free! read more

I am a first time costumer I ordered the cheese steak. Absolutely amazing lotta meat great hoagie roll, I'm blown away

I love this restaurant! I go at least once a month! They have a full service menu with gluten free available!!! Family atmosphere! Great staff, very friendly! Would recommend it to everyone!!! read more

Food is always ok but have noticed several times that young gentleman making sandwiches has no problem handling money and then going off to make another sub. read more
