I just ordered this salad and yes I understand the mozzarella is expensive but for $12.00 this was a rip off. The man that I spoke to on the phone was rude and didnt even ask to see why I was complaining. I will never again give Samarios my business and will be making sure my friends do the same. #takeacustomerservicemoreserious #sadsalad #itazerostarforme

I liked this restaurant. The service was great, prices are reasonable. The place is very clean and a nice atmosphere. I had wings that were very good and stuffed mushrooms and french fries that were also very good. My one complaint was of the food I actually went there for... Pizza. The crust was surprisingly spongy for an Old Forge style pizza... The bottom line is I wouldn't go here specifically for pizza but I will try other things from the menu in the future.

Under done pizza

Third time in a row my pizza was under Done. Last time It was so raw that I got sick. This time they got the order wrong and to correct it they were going to charge me a whole other charge to make it the correct way.

13$ takeout order, boneless bites and gravy/cheese fries.

The hype is real- got a traditional Old Forge cut and a double crust pie: both very good.

I want to further emphasize my previous review and say that this is, hands down, the best pizza place in NEPA.

Love the Eggplant Parm gourmet pizza and my husband loves the Buffalo Chicken Pizza.... Looking for…read moregreat food.....it's here!

Sauce: 9.9/10 Dough/crust: 7.9/10…read moreOverall: 9.1/10 Just had a slice of buffalo chicken pizza from here at the Italian Festival in Scranton. In all of my 32 years, this was literally the best buffalo chicken pizza I've EVER eaten! I actually wiped off some of the sauce to begin, fearing that it would be the stereotypical salty, vinegar-forward buffalo sauce. I regretted my decision: It was an ever-so-pleasant, slightly sweet, based, mild buffalo sauce. The pizza actually has thin slices of breaded chicken as a topping. I've never found a buff chic pizza that had chunks of baked, well-seasoned, thinly-sliced, breaded chicken tenders on top. It reminds me of what you'd find at a place like Ninas on their breaded hot wing hoagie; with a very similar sauce profile. This wouldn't be a true pizza review if I didn't note any critiques. The Dough was definitely homemade but it was slightly under done for my liking *I do understand they were pumping out hundreds to trays during the festival. The only aspect of this keeping it from being a 9.5+ slice was a little char on the undercarriage. A little color mixed with the breaded chicken and phenomenal sauce would take both the pizza's overall rating and its aesthetic/presentation to the next level! Well done Electric City Pizza! I scarfed it down so quick, I didn't get a chance to take a photo

We're an Italian family, and we came across Piciocchi's on our way back to Long Island from upstate…read moreNew York last Saturday. From the moment we walked in, we felt at home. We met the owner, Stefano, and despite the restaurant being at its busiest peak, he couldn't have been more welcoming, kind, and attentive. Speaking Italian with him instantly brought us back to Italy. He embodies the warmth and hospitality we miss so much. The food was authentic, fresh, and clearly made with great attention to detail. We tried a little bit of everything on the menu, and every dish was outstanding. Honestly, it's hard to choose a favorite because everything was so good. Even our kids said they felt like they were back in Italy. They especially loved the pizza. If you're looking for real Italian food, outstanding service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere, Piciocchi's is a must. We can't wait to come back!

I was visiting from Brooklyn to see my family in the area. My friend, who's a local, told me about…read morea place that makes their own pasta and how they have a great lunch. Ok I'm in, I'm Italian, homemade pasta is right up my alley. We sat down, friendly staff (young and distant), but an extremely strange setting. It was like walking into a Wayfair showroom with a pasta kitchen. The branding was a bit horrid in my opinion, but I work in that industry, so I couldn't get over the esthetic before I even got to the food. The TV "paintings" with random art were the "highlight" truly... I'm being too kind. The wedding table numbers, really were killing me in the worst way. This place was like a mishmash of identities with no real clarity of execution or strategy on how to accomplish what they're trying to be. A crash landing of ideas with no real destination. Now the food and drink! The plates were the size of a small luggage! For starters, the "fresh" bread they offered with a rancid tasting olive oil and the tiniest drop of balsamic vinegar was appalling. The calamari was decent at best... it tasted factory made, the coating was thick and it came with the tiniest portions of sauce. I want my calamari, piping hot, with a really thin coating and a ton of sauce, that's just me. The chicken cutlet was a flavorless flour-dredged slab of meat. Barely pounded out and coated in a thin breading, with no seasoning, and it was crazy big! The Gnocchi four cheese was like eating dough turds in glue. The texture was not good at all, and reminded me of undercooked packaged pasta, and weirdly overcooked all the same time... like the water wasn't boiling and they added the pasta in while it was cold. Gnocchi should be pillowy soft and should literally fall apart in the mouth and the cheese sauce should not be like hair gel stuck to the food. It's Italian food, it's supposed to be herbaceous and well seasoned, this was food for non-Italians, who think they could like Italian food if it was just a little more bland and assimilated... without all the immigrant culture, ya know?! The best portion of the dish was the non-alcoholic drink, which is saying a lot. I genuinely hate to leave a terrible impression, but I really hated this meal, and I'm shocked by the reviews. It would seem a lot of people are here for the big portions and cheap food. Not a quality food experience. Everyone's got their own taste!
