Italian Kitchen 521 - House pizza with pepperoni,onion, mushrooms and green peppers...Yum!! - Pizza Near Me - East Lansdowne, Pennsylvania

Just ordered. On time. Price good! Pizza tasty! Bbq chicken and cheesesteak pizza with cooked onions.

I was so disappointed I usually order from here when I visit the area and never have been disappointed. I usually order extra to take home. This time was a disappointment. The pizzas were ok I was impressed that the box was marked inside to show which side was the special order. Unfortunately the teriyaki chicken sub lacked taste. There wasn't any teriyaki flavor and the chicken was dry and hard. read more

Went in at 8:45, was told they were closed except for pizza orders, then told they had shutdown the pizza ovens too. Why advertise being open until 9pm if you can't take orders 15 minutes prior? Change your hours to reflect 8:30! read more

I ordered from Italian Kitchen on 8/23/24. I ordered two cheesesteaks and 10 buffalo wings. As I was finishing up my sandwich I saw a small roach crawling on the bag. OMG I cringed. I immediately killed it and grabbed the rest of the uneaten food and placed it in a bag as I didn't want anything else to happen in case there were more in my bag. I called Italian Kitchen to let them know what happened and was told by Vickie they have "no" roaches. Okay so that is virtually impossible in a food service business however, okay let's go with that. I know for certain there are no roaches in my home. So I told her if you have no roaches and I know I don't there must be an issue in the driver's car. The health department wrote up the 63rd street location so I would never buy anything there. I never had a problem at the Baltimore ave location. Her offer to me was to come and inspect the establishment and give me a credit towards a future order. So now I work for the Health Department? And what would make her think I would want something from this place after this experience? Eat here at your own risk. I am saddened to say they will not get another dime from me. read more

Worse steak I ever had and they dint follow order instructions. 1st and last time....

This was a nice little surprise. I got the three cheeses Cheesesteak which comes on a garlic roll. I like this cheesesteak. It seems like everyone ordering had a special order and it did not upset the nice people at the Italian Kitchen. I think I can draw with all my inner J Cole and build something beautiful on the three cheeses Cheesesteak Foundation. It was cheesy. It was garlicy. The roll had a nice toast. It was under $10. I would have liked more meat. I get/understand the whole melting the cheese on top but I still like my cheese mixed in with my meat. read more

Italian kitchen chicken salad hoagie is one of the best in Lansdowne. Always on point and now my friends are hooked.

I had some keto friends come over so we decided to order from here. They wanted cheesesteaks and then went on about keto, can't have bread and so forth. I'm thinking omg why do you keto people have to be so difficult, left the notes. I was surprised myself, they packed it nicely as picture. Keto friends were happy read more

It is generally believed that a "hole in the wall" restaurant is a good place to eat. Well, this "hole in the wall" is FANTASTIC!!! Doesn't really look like much from the outside, but inside is where the magic happens. The pizza was the best I have had in a very long time. My wife had penne with meat sauce. Absolutely GREAT... The staff was friendly and helpful with the orders. The food was delivered to our table hot. We would highly recommend this pizza house for a GREAT meal and GOOD EATS... read more

This is my favorite place the get a hoagie. I don't mind taking the 15-20 min ride. I know my sandwich will be right!! There is metered street parking, sometimes depending on the day and or time it's busy. This place is not modern but it's clean. The customer service is great and friendly. The food comes out quick. I love their turkey and cheese hoagies because they use fresh home style meat. The cheese is sliced perfect. The bread is sturdy and fresh always. I love that they know exactly how the make it. The portion is great from r the price. My only complaint is that they have a limited amount of chip selection. Everyone knows you need HOT CHIPS with a good hoagie. I never got anything else from here. I usually order my hoagie for take out. Although you can sit and eat I rather eat at home. If you want a good hoagie and your in the Philadelphia west philly and or southwest area go here!!! read more

Favourite kitchen in the area!! The quesadilla size is huge, I haven't seen it somewhere else in that size! read more

Italian Kitchen 521 - Best cheestake I have eaten!!! - Pizza Near Me - East Lansdowne, Pennsylvania

Buffalo Chix Cheese Steak is soooo goooddd. Get it on the lunch menu and you'll be happy. However my issue is depending on who picks up the phone you may or may not get blue cheese on it even though you specifically ask for it. This has happened to me 3 times. Now i check it before i pull off. Pretty good for what it is. read more

Love this place! I've been ordering from here almost every week. I am hooked on their pizzas and I tried the Stromboli which is also good. Last week I had their hot wings and I'm not a fan of everyone's but theirs was pretty good! I'm now a regular! read more

Ordered from grubhub. My salad was decent but the "chili cheddar cheese fries" I ordered for $7 looked like this. When I called the restaurant the woman on the phone was rude af and told me they don't sell cheddar cheese and id have to call grubhub. There was cheddar cheese all over my salad...also after I placed the order and paid the restaurant changed my total while my food was being delivered to add a $3 delivery charge that wasn't there when I ordered. The woman on the phone tried to tell me that the menu only said chili fries while I was looking at it so that she did not have to refund me. Then she told me I'd have to call Grubhub, who told me the restaurant had to approve the refund first. Italian kitchen put grubhub on hold and never came back to the phone. I got a grubhub credit for $10 but this is a dishonest business who clearly has such a low level of integrity they'd serve someone something like this then lie to someone in their own community to keep from being accountable. Bad jujuenjoy read more

When the neighborhood was "different" about 40 years ago this place was the best. The quality of the food has really gone down hill. But you still have some folks that will eat anything and that's what keeps this place open. They lost my business a long time ago! read more

Italian kitchen hasn't been a hit since the 90's and pretty much now is a miss. I ordered their Mega onion rings which comes with bacon bits, ranch dressing, and cheese it taste over cooked like burnt and gave me a funny after taste to the point it made me sick to my stomach so I trashed it. With them I had their 3cheese steak which was another no no based on the taste of it, I asked for extra mayonnaise but didnt get but light mayo also I forgot to mention I had this food delivered but was pissed to recieve it cold so overall Italian kitchen fell off so much you might as well keep it moving while driving pass this establishment If your on Baltimore Pike. Don't waste your time and money. read more

Horrible customer service! Can't call back to inform them they did anything wrong because according to them they've got a camera that apparently records everything they did properly and nothing else? I called and got threatened and cussed out? Ok if I could give Less then 1 I would read more

I've ordered from the Italian Kitchen 3x's I thought I had found a really great place to get pizza . I was throughly pleased twice. But tonight was a complete disaster. When it was finally delivered the box was opened and I had no idea what happened to it. I asked them to the it back. I have no explanation for this incident. read more

By far the best pizza I've found outside Philly so far. And, when I am feeling lazy and don't want to walk, they will deliver to the bar where I shoot pool occasionally, (which gets them bonus points in my book even if it takes forever when they are only a block and a half away). The dough is solid, yeasty and chewy; crispy and thin under the sauce and cheese with thick, puffy crusts. The sauce is rich, thick and garlicky goodness, covered with a dense, stringy layer of delicious, quality mozarella. I really don't know about anything else they make, but I will swear by their pizza (I can polish off a medium on my own in about ten minutes-- it's so good it hurts). read more

Ordered a cheese pizza, might as well been cheesy bread. No sauce. And when we called to inform them the customer service was horrible. All we got was an argument and foul language. Would not recommend them. read more

Steve Levi from Channel 10 News had a Silver Spoon Award, that would go to and be on display at various Restaurants and Food Service Establishments within the viewing area. Some were more deserving than others, while others perpetuated Rivalries, like the Cheese Steak War in South Philadelphia. The Silver Spoon Award was packed up and put away by the Original Owner's of that Reward, gone; some believe Quality and Care went with it! Subtle Changes at first, then those little things became outright 'Ripoffs', charging the same price for a Sandwich, missing the very thing that made it Special. read more

AWFUL!!!!!! When my order FINALLY arrived it was incorrect. In spite of the fact the order taker read back exactly what I ordered before hanging up. I called back to advise them that my order was wrong and the female that I originally spoke with was short and dismissive. She insisted that I was wrong and got what I ordered. I have ripped up their menu! read more

Cheese burger was dry and the wings could have been better fries are ok but i would not recommend them to anybody

Food always delivered fresh, hot and on time. Everything is authentic and never disappointed in the amount and price.

Worst ever . No sharp prob. No prosciutto , and over a hour for delivery hoagie was sub par . First and last time ordering from ther

i ordered a personal pan pizza sausage. the pizza just came. it was not freshly made. looked old

My first experience here! Food and service were excellent. I look forward to ordering again. Spaghetti is large and filling. Hot fresh roll. Also, they have great quality ranch which is important for those who love dipping everything! I'd give a 5 but perfection is something we strive for. Keep up the great work team. read more

Amazing food and although I miss the old ownership, the new team does just as well. The food is delicious and filling and there isn't a day I'd say no to take out from here. They're consistently yummy and affordable. If you live nearby, don't miss out, but if you're far away, don't extend your comfort to get to here. It's a great local spot but not exactly worth the effort of travel. read more

Very friendly and helpful staff when we were there for lunch. They were able to provide parking advice, and cooked our food fresh to order. The whole place seemed clean, the sandwiches tasty & the fries almost perfect - what more can you ask for? Would recommend going at lunch if you can, because of the special offers at that time. read more

I've been here several times but have never written a review. This place is consistently good. I love the Italian Kitchen gourmet pizza. Great burgers, cheese steaks, and wings. The turkey hoagie I ordered once kinda skimped on the turkey though. The service is always good. read more

This is really not as good as I remembered. Had the Mushroom Cheesesteak Hoagie. And there was more meat than was needed. Woulda been ok if not for the unchewable parts! I'm not sure if I'll go back to try something different. :-/ read more

This place have the best Italian Hoagies hands down. A lot of authentic places went away over the last few years and being from Philly and now living in the south I always makes it my business to stop here each time I come back home to visit family. The staff is nice too. read more

Delivery takes 100 years which isn't bad at all & the steak's bread is soggy which makes me wonder. why I love pizza places but why why whyy

Years ago this was the place to go in and out of Philadelphia..people would wait in line take numbers just to get a taste...now it's terrible..don't waste your money..cheese steaks very greasy ...better off getting food from 9th and diamond read more

If I could give zero stars I would! Service was horrible and my food was disgusting. The chicken in my chicken cheesesteak was undercooked and my roll was rock hard! On top of that my fries were cold. When I called to let them know the hostess told me to call back at 10pm once her manager arrived. I'd figured that was crap but decided to call anyway. When I called back at 10:40 a foreign lady answered the phone.. when I proceeded to let her know my issue the lady I spoke to before was in the back yelling calling me a liar. I proceeded to ask for the manger and was informed that "He ain't here! Call back in the morning!" So I asked the lady for her name and she began to yell and put me on hold. Once off of hold I again asked for her name and yelled "WHAT DO YOU NEED ME DAMN NAME FOR!" And hung up on me! I called back and they answered and hung up again!! I called a third time and this time the lady didn't even let me get a word in.. she told me that the store has NEVER had a complaint and I didn't know what I was talking about before hanging up on me again! I and so disgusted! Not to mention I wasted my money on shitty food and even shittier service! Colonial kitchen is way better!! read more

This place has gotten highly inconsistent with the quality of their food. Very inconsistent. Up until about a year ago I often ordered pizza from them, which was very enjoyable then. They would give me exactly what I asked for on the pizza, no problem at all. I started ordering from them again. Whenever I order, I ask for extra sauce, because for some reason this place has always had a problem with putting a decent amount of sauce on their pizza, apparently. I recently ordered from grubhub, asking for extra sauce on top of the pizza (they like neglect putting it on unless you ask for it on top). GH got back to me saying that would be an extra $2, which was fine just so long as they gave me what I wanted. Surprise, surprise, I hardly got what I asked for. Instead of putting a decent amount, they instead put an insanely small amount of sauce on top of the pizza in about three different spots on the pie. Looking at this, I felt like a god damn joke was being played on me, that some snarky ass cook thought it was funny to be this neglectful of customer's orders. Once again, I was charged for a topping that they neglected to give me. If their service is this inconsistent with how they treat their customers, and they can't even do something so easy, then it frightens me to think how inconsistent their other food must be, and how customers don't get what they ask for. So simple, too. So folks, if you're looking for a new place to get pizza from, or returning to this place, do yourself a favor and don't. Italian Kitchen has become very neglectful in giving consistent meals and retaining any decent quality in their food. Their cooks are neglectful and can't even do extremely simple requests when asked to clearly. There are better pizza places around here, and I guarantee that even chain pizza places keep the quality of their food consistent. If they're not going to give the costumers what they want then your money is better spent elsewhere. read more

Spoiled food. I asked them for chocolate cake and they brought me spoiled strawberry shortcake, then had the audacity to lie and say that's what I asked for. Their inept deliveryman forced me to tip him $2 by claiming he didn't have enough change on him... I will be filing a complaint with local health food department. Tired of these restaurants thinking they can get away with serving shit food because the community is predominantly black. read more

Great food!!! The wait time for delivery was exactly what was promised and my delivery man was very nice. This restaurant is definitely a go to spot when in the area. read more
