Hidden gem! Went for a birthday dinner. The portions were huge and the food was DELICIOUS! We will definitely be adding Persichetti's to our "favorites" list. The waitress, sorry I forget her name, was also a joy. Very friendly and added a sweet touch to desert as a bonus. (See pic) read more

Persichetti's Restaurant - Peanut butter pie YUM! - Seafood Near Me - Jeannette, Pennsylvania

If you're looking for reasonably priced authentic Italian food in a casual bar/restaurant with friendly wait staff, this is the place. Some of the best Italian wedding soup outside of my homemade. Appetizers: The stuffed peppers were filled to the max and smothered in tons of yummy marinara sauce. The bruschetta was thick bread topped with tomatoes and balsamic glaze. My meal was the cod special $13 (served fried or broiled) and 2 sides. I would highly recommend giving it a try if you're local or just passing through. read more

We haven't been to Persichetti's in years. Glad we went back. Older place but really nice and comfortable. The place was packed on Friday night so make a reservation for sure. We got the chicken piccata and shrimp scampi. Both come with two sides. My husband got the shrimp over pasta since it doesn't normally come with it. We were both very happy with our dinners. The salad was fresh and mashed potatoes...YUM! If there were an award for best waitress, Lindsey would win. She was amazing! Even though it was super busy, she made sure to check on us often and made it the best experience! We had a visit from another woman and a man to check on our satisfaction with the food also. Great place, great staff and great experience. We will be back to try other things on the menu. read more

If the three most important things in real estate are location, location, location, in the restaurant biz, they're details, details, details. Persichetti's rates highly on attention to details. This is most evident in the simpler, everyday dishes. At my last visit, I ordered fish and chips (here called fried cod and fries). There is something almost seductive in a perfectly cooked piece of fried cod. Thinly coated, flaky, and absolutely delicious. Mine was served with homemade tartar, which, I thought could use a bit more lemon. My plate contained a lemon wedge (details) and so I smoothed a layer of tartar on the fish, squeezed some lemon over top. While I may never be able to prove it, I'm sure I tasted a little bit of heaven. Many restaurants treat fries as an afterthought. Not Persichetti's. They looked hand cut. They were crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside, served hot, and with the exactly right amount of salt. Persichetti's may look and present itself as a neighborhood restaurant. In fact, it's got some of the best food in these parts. The attention to detail puts it in a class with the finest restaurants. read more

Service was excellent, food was good and priced appropriately. We enjoyed sitting at the bar to eat as regular dining area seemed a bit cramped for our taste. Would definitely go again if in the nearby area. read more

Persichetti's is what happens when your taste buds get a warm Italian hug and your heart gets a little neighborhood therapy session. Came in for lunch with my mom--already a win because, you know, Italian moms don't mess around with subpar food--and we ended up running into some friends, which turned our casual meal into a surprise reunion. Nothing like good gossip over even better sandwiches. Speaking of the sandwiches: amazing. Like, "can I get another one to-go and pretend it's for someone else" amazing. And the drinks? Let's just say whoever was behind the bar knows what they're doing--no sad, watery cocktails here. The staff is fantastic. Genuinely warm, welcoming, and the kind of people who make you feel like you've been coming there for years, even if it's your first time. It's everything you want in an Italian restaurant: Good food Great service A vibe that says "we're feeding your soul, not just your stomach" 10/10 would come back. Might even bring more family. Or not--more sandwiches for me. read more

A jewel in Jeannette. Super packed, super noisy. Everyone enjoyed their food. Healthy size salad, entree was tasty. Would go back again... feel there is more to this place. read more

I was shocked by this Italian restaurant's food. The meal was a take out. The Wedding Soup was so so. The sample plate was awful. The tomato stuff that was over the items didn't stick to any of the pasta. The inside of the ravioli was good. The pasta itself was gummy and disgusting. The same for the gnocchi! The spaghetti was way overcooked and like I had already said the tomato stuff on top didn't stick to any of the pasta. It wasn't like any sauce I have ever had. Never again. read more

This was my first time going to Persichetti's restaurant. Food was was very good. I just had spaghetti and meatballs and a zucchini appetizer. I sat on a small table by the bar. The bartender was very nice and friendly. Got me a beer. My only disappointment here was they were out of Yingling, but I tried a specialty brand that was very good also. Price was very reasonable. read more

The food and service was very good. Large portion of chicken Marsala with sides. The honey salmon was good the sauce could have been a little thicker. The establishment was older decor. The service was fantastic. read more

Great family restaurant atmosphere. We stopped to have dinner with family and were glad we did. Home style Italian food and great service. We'll be back for sure. read more

The staff and food were both great! If you're looking for a good atmosphere and quality food this is the spot. I plan on going back to try something new... the expansive menu helps. Definitely worth a night out! read more

Not only is the food outstanding, the service is the friendliest! We went to this lovely restaurant from a recommendation and it did not disappoint! Food, service, and restaurant are a must visit! read more

Good food! Quick polite service! Casual dinning! I have and will go back again and again!

I was wandering around Jeanette doing some photography when I saw this tall, nicely painted building. Upon learning it was a restaurant, I quickly checked the menu online and headed inside. The most important thing, is that it is really clean, both inside and out. Table tops and booth seats are clean with no sticky feeling. Even the restroom smelled good and was spotless. The ambiance is nice inside. Dim lighting and well shaded from the glare of the sun outside from the awnings. It is also a very spacious restaurant with several large rooms and a separate bar. The staff was AMAZING. Fast, friendly service and it is old-school service (even though some of the staff is quite young) meaning you don't have to ask for refills or extra napkins. It is all anticipated and done for you. Before I tell you about the good food there is something that I think is the most important of all. Especially in today's economy, their prices are FAIR. Some places gouge you on fresh side salads and drinks. I think an unsweetened iced-tea that is $3.00+ is ridiculous. That is what sets Persicehetti's apart... As corny as it sounds, I was so happy to see that non-alcoholic beverages were reasonably priced, as was the rest of the food on the menu. I cannot believe I had a side salad, fries, club sandwich and a drink for less than $20!!! This alone will make me come back. They aren't price gouging you like many other places. OK, so how was the food? I a word, delicious. The salad was lettuce, carrots, diced beets, onions, tomatoes and olives. A generous portion of well-made fries and the club sandwich was perfect. Crispy bacon, crisp, fresh lettuce and ripe red tomato. Plenty of turkey. All on toasted bread. I can recommend Persichetti's without hesitation. Good food, nice, clean atmosphere, excellent service, and fair pricing. If you are anywhere nearby, give them a try. They were a very welcome surprise for me. read more

Great Italian food. The portions are large and you'll have plenty for the next day. The staff is all friendly and helpful

Delicious food, good service, very clean restaurant. Genuinely authentic Italian. Decent prices. A must try.

Absolutely amazing! Great food, friendly service, and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommend

We went here for dinner on NYE with the family and ordered quite a few different things! The calamari was fresh and hot when we received it and the fried pepper jack cheese and pepperoni was great! Who knew? Friend pepperoni!? Got our salads and the house Italian and each dressings were delicious, plus I'm a sucker for anyone that puts beets on a salad. Plus those side salads are pretty big! I got the crabcake special and the crab cakes were nice and full of crab meat. We were a little disappointed that we couldn't switch to Alfredo sauce with the ravioli, but it was still good! I got the gnocchi as a side for my crab cakes and I requested it with an oil or butter sauce, just something lighter.. when it was brought to me it had a clump of butter on it and the server said let me put that in the microwave so the butter melts... I didn't love that, as no one wants to hear their food is getting microwaved... But the deserts were delicious! We did a tiramisu, the lemon cream cake, and peanut butter pie, and all 3 were super yummy and the ideal comfort food when finishing up an Italian meal! It's a quant little old school Italian restaurant, and we had a pretty good time. read more

We decided to try this restaurant tonight. The service was good but they were out of bread sticks so we got bread. There was a knat crawling all over the bread throughout our meal- of course we didn't eat any. The shrimp and scallops that I ordered were over cooked. My husband got crab stuffed cod. It was overcooked and was very bland. I covered my spaghetti side to keep the bugs off of it. We will not be back. read more

Not only is the food delicious but the staff is always friendly and the best! Doesn't matter if you're looking for lunch or dinner this spot is great for both. We have been numerous times with family and just the 2 of us for a night out! The atmosphere is perfect for any occasion. We always leave full and satisfied and always look forward to our next visit back. read more

Persichetti's is our favorite restaurant, hands down! The stuffed banana peppers are out of this world. The seafood alfredo and the chicken salad are my go to entrees, but honestly there isn't a bad dish on the menu. The food is always delicious, and the staff is so kind and welcoming. read more

What a super hidden gem! We stayed at Hampton Inn in Stanton PA. Found this restaurant on Yelp. It's not around the corner but definitely worth the drive. I think it would have only been 20 min away but we missed a turn. The staff was great and very pleasant. We sat in the wine cellar in a tucked away booth with my daughter in law and grandson. Plenty of room. We had the bruschetta for an appetizer, salad and pizza. Everything tasted great. The owner came and checked on us (Jim) and then upon asking a few questions took an amazing amount of time talking with my grandson about some up coming decisions he is in the middle of making. We are so thankful for the time Jim spent even though he was busy. Definitely would go back when traveling again may even make it a destination when traveling through Indiana and Deleware. read more

Went here last night for a pre Valentine's Day dinner with my wife and had a wonderful time, first of all the server was fantastic, very attentive and very kind. Second i got the appetizer of the mozzarella sticks, these were made from scratch and were gooey goodness not the frozen or average ones you get sometimes at restaraunts... for dinner my wife got the homemade spaghetti and meatballs and the spaghetti and homemade meatballs are delicious. Myself i got my usual the chicken parm, when i first got my dish the chicken was lukewarm and chewey and tasted like microwaved leftovers, idk what happened but my meal was instantly replaced with. Hot and fresh dish... mistakes happen but when they fix the mistake quickly i appreciate that... will be back!!! read more

Great freshly made food at reasonable prices! Never disappointed here! Service with a smile too.

Enjoyed a late lunch. It was surprisingly busy for a mid-afternoon. Nonetheless the service was swift and efficient. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. The prices were more than reasonable. We had Fettucini alfredo with shrimp, gnocchi with meat sauce, breaded zucchini with spaghetti, and fried fish sandwich with fries. All of that set us back less than $40! And of course it was all delicious. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that I try to reserve 5 star reviews for life-changing experiences. read more

Great food! Hands down the best roast beef sandwich you'll ever eat. Pleasant staff and a variety of foods to choose from. A must try!

The food at Persichetti's is amazing. I always feel like I'm getting the most for what I pay for. The people treat you right and everyone in the community will agree that this restaurant is like home. The inside of the restaurant is classy and clean. Even the bar is nice and looks welcoming. read more

Finally tried this place a few weeks ago after years of living so close. We are fools for missing out for so long. We have been back multiple times now. The food has been excellent. The Alfredo and wedding soup were excellent. The open faced steak was a nice change. When you get takeout the bartender checks every container to your order in front of you to ensure it is right. I recommend giving them a try if you are in the area. read more

So I went on a date here and they put us in a short of quiet place so me and this person could talk and eat in private. The food was amazing ( like always). Service was good and Persichetti's was packed that night and the still kept up with the service. I've been going there ever since I was 12 years old. I get the same thing every-time. A grilled chicken salad hold the tomato with Italian dressing and to drink a Shirley temple. read more

Food very good, Was seated very quickly and food was very good. Service was like being waited on by a newby ditz. Food was served and she disappeared for 15 to 20 minutes. When she returned to see if we wanted desert or the bill I asked her what kind of Italian restaurant doesn't provide parm or some kind of cheese for their Italian dishes and she says oh I was just so busy I never think of that. other servers were providing cheese to their guests with all Italian dishes. She just seemed like a ditz who was just sort of doing a job. The dining room was very clean and organized. One person in our party said the chicken Marsala was very good and super tender. Will try again but will want a different server. read more

Food is excellent and the staff is amazing. Restaurant is really pretty in the bar area. Definitely going back!

I don't usually think of Jeanette as a food lover's paradise, but after having dinner at Persichetti's Restaurant I've changed my mind. First, the staff could not have been nicer. Our waitress was very sweet, attentive and willing to please. I love pasta carbonara but it's not easy to find at local restaurants. When I saw it on the menu I could not wait to order. I also chose a salad with their housemade Italian dressing-which I could just drink. All along our young waitress supplied and resupplied fresh Italian bread and refilled our drinks. Others in our party ordered a variety of dinner items like the tour of Italy, chicken Marsala, a poached chicken and another carbonara. Not everyone was pleased - the poached chicken was a little dry. They offered to replace it, but our friend passed. They were happy to remove the item from the bill. However the pastas and the chicken Marsala were hits. I'm looking forward to my next visit. read more

This is our first time here and can't wait to go back! The Alfredo sauce was unbelievable. You could tell it was handmade with really good cheeses. Some of their pasta is homemade you don't find that everywhere. Five stars! read more

100% terrible....i had a problem with a bartender being rude.... Didn't want to blast them on social media cuz I love supporting family owned..... I sent them a private message and they never responded back and addressed the issue..... the food is good but when you have staff that treats people bad because they don't have the same opinion as you...go somewhere else that is better.... I would never! Your believes/opinions are yours..... respect and love each other read more

The food here is very good. The staff is also very nice and quick to get you seated and your food ordered. They have a variety of food to choose from. I've been here multiple times and will come back more. read more

What a find! Being Italian I am super picky when it comes to sauce, that being said...I really enjoyed their homemade pasta and traditional sauce with the chicken parm. Our service was friendly and pricing was very reasonable. read more

It has been a long time since I have been at this restaurant. It's a little out of my regular area. Although, I think I need to make more of an effort to come here. Husband and I stopped here for lunch. They offer very good lunch / dinner specials. I ordered a spaghetti special that came with side salad and bread. Husband was happy with his lasagna. Prices were very reasonable and the food was good. read more
