Not only is the food delicious, but the portions are enormous, definitely more than enough for 2 meals. I got the chicken and veal Parmesan which comes with pasta (choice of Ziti, Spaghetti, and Linguini) and their entrees come with a salad or soup. The lasagna was stuffed with meat and cheese, these are definitely very decadent options. We ended with a skillet cookie cake for dessert, it was huge and perfectly baked read more

Place has been around for years! I remember when I was 7/8 years old we had a family dinner before my grandfather and I traveled to Hawaii and my mom announced she was pregnant. Been here many times over the years and just recently had some delivery pizza for a birthday party. I went up a couple times to grab some slices of combo which had great freshness. Make reservations, place seems to always be packed. read more

Service poor. Food bland. Went with family got seated and then waited. The waitress took our order, then we waited Too many things happened to write about. Will I go back nope Bland food read more

I cannot say enough good things about this place. The parking is easy, the building is nice and well-maintained, the food is exceptional but the topper here is the service. We've been here before while traveling and found it good but tonight Courtney (sp?) was just wonderful. She anticipated every need and was smiling and courteous the entire time. She seemed to know exactly what we needed and when. As for the food, who can complain about Teresa's cuisine. It is well made and obviously cared for by the staff. Although we don't live in the area, we have family here and will make Teresa's a regular stop during our travels. read more

I would rate this place 5 stars for service and 3-3.5 for the food. Very open and family style feeling. Staff was super friendly and provided great service. Warning to all: the portion sizes are huge. Like 2-3 people could share one meal huge. So you get a great value for the amount of food you get. The food was good, nothing special or terrible. The sentimental value of the place is what will keep me going back any time I visit. read more

I've Teresa's is a local favorite, but I'd never tried it. I have a gluten allergy and thought my options would be few there. I checked their menu recently and realized they have gluten-free pasta and gluten-free options so we went on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. On the weekends, they have the dinner menu all day, even for lunch. I was happy about that because the dinner menu you had more options. The side salad was fresh and good sized. My MIL had the chicken lentil soup and said it was wonderful. I had chicken stuffed with prosciutto and mozzarella with gluten-free pasta. It was excellent. My mother-in-law had the stuffed haddock. She's not usually a fish lover, but said it was delicious. There were no dessert options for me, but my MIL took a tiramisu home because she was too full, heard it was excellent. We highly recommend Teresa's. It's worth the drive from anywhere. read more

This is my Ultimate Italian restaurant. Love the atmosphere & the food. They make the Best Chicken Cacciatore anywhere. Always busy there. They have a Excellent menu. My first choice of restaurants. Never had a bad meal there. read more

We've never had a bad meal. Try the blackened salmon with a salad. Delicious! Wait staff are always nice. Very clean and comfortable place.

I really like this place , portions are great I love the veal parmigiana hot rolls with oil and garlic

I had never been until last night. It was okay. The chicken parm seemed like the breasts are frozen. They are very heavily breaded and salty. The sauce was pretty good, the rolls that came out first were fresh. I guess my favorite part was the salad. The house dressing was delicious, and the portions are large all around. A mixed drink was high priced for lots of ice and a weak mix. I don't think I'd rush back for dinner here again, although I hear the pizza is excellent but that was not offered on the dinner menu. read more

Great large meatballs.love love love. Italian large servings. By new Starbucks and jersey Mike's.

Food is always excellent and plentiful at Teresa's! I have to be careful as I have celiac disease and they are accommodating. Our waitress was very helpful. read more

This is a nice little Italian restaurant, there is a large separate bar area and sometimes they have live entertainment.

This is pretty solid American Italian fare. Service is excellent. Ambiance/decor is very dated and could use some brightening up. We ate: Coconut shrimp: These were surprisingly great. I'm not a big fan of shredded coconut but you didn't notice the texture here because it was perfectly fried. The accompanying pineapple sauce gave it a pina colada flare. Fried Ravioli: These were decent. It's hard to go wrong with anything involving frying and cheese. Side Salads: Salads were a mix of ice erg and some better greens, low of the cukes and tomato but standard for the venue type. Chicken Parmesan: The chicken wasn't pounded or pan fried. It's was deep fried. That said, the batter was delicious and I would def get this as a sandwich or try their fish and chips. Chicken Francese: I didn't try this but my mom said it was excellent. read more

We had an amazing meal here in from out of town! The seafood and margaritas and desserts were our favorites! read more

Met friends for lunch on a Saturday. They had just opened so it wasn't busy. All 6 of us enjoyed our meals-eggplant parm and veal parm was a hit. I had steak Gorgonzola which was delicious and perfectly cooked. The pasta and meatballs come with 2 average size meatballs-our friend tried the first one and ordered 2 more. Service was good. read more

I know, I know Teresa's is actually in Massachusetts. It's close enough to us in CT and it's still the only good pizza

The portions of this place are quite large for the price. Although there needs to be an interior redesign.

Found this place via Yelp and was not disappointed! After a long outing with my son, we were hungry & far from home. We popped in for an early dinner. It's Italian fare, so we knew we'd find family friendly fare. The dining room was clean & inviting. The bar area is quite lovely. We were greeted promptly. We ordered pasta with sauce, nothing fancy. It was quite tasty. Service was pleasant and attentive on this quiet Tuesday evening. They also seem to run a healthy takeout business, complete with its own window. Kinda brilliant, really. read more

Food: The spicy Calamari app was perfectly cooked, very tasty, and a huge serving. Bread, salad, very good. I had the special: sausage scampi with roasted red peppers over linguine. Very good. My partner had the lasagne-also very good. Again, very large portions. We liked our waitress. She was engaging and efficient. A professional. No problem with waiting or timing of courses as reported by others. Ambiance: at first it was fine. A traditional restaurant setting. Not noisy. A multigenerational party was across as the room with 8 adults and two kids ages 3 and 4. As soon as the kids were done eating the adults let them run around, screech, lie on the floor in the path of the waitstaff and generally encouraged disruptive behavior, tickling the girl on the floor, saying how cute the girl was, etc. We did not hear one word from the adults asking them kids to reel it in. It almost ruined our meal. Maybe they were restaurant owner family? I don't know, and I know establishments can't control parenting but I think the hostess had grounds to address rolling on the floor and loudness. When they left, it was like someone turned off a particularly noisy kitchen fan. The quiet was heavenly. read more

We have been eating here for years. Nothing special but at least consistent. In the last year, the prices have increased substantially, the servings have decreased and the quality has dropped. The rolls are still good, and the service is still good, but for the cost of a plate of simple spaghetti, you can eat at a higher quality restaurant with better selections. read more

We were exploring Ware, Ma.and came upon this restaurant. What a find! Fantastic staff, good energy and great food. Our server, Diane was so warm and personable. I enjoyed sharing family stories about growing up with Italian traditions. I had an amazing stuffed seafood dish...it was Friday, so, of course fish. My husband had an unusual sausage Parmigiano which he really enjoyed. The portions are generous. We will definitely return. read more

We had a fantastic meal! I had the chicken Marsala with a baked potato (instead of pasta) and a creamsicle martini. They gave me so much food I had it for 2 more days! And our waitress (Dianne) was awesome and funny! We'll be back!!!! read more

Three strikes! We've eaten in twice and finally tried take out last week to avoid service in the restaurant. Severs are generally abrupt and cannot pace the meal, instead bringing all the food in a rush while you are still eating salad. The most terrible thing is the food. It is never consistent, always soggy and so overloaded with sauce and salt. BTW, the sauce is so salty that it does not taste homemade. Chicken parm was a wet, soaked mess and the chicken looked like it was frozen. Lastly, the prices are ridiculous. Takeout of one dinner and a children's meal $46! The online menu for takeout shows substantially lower prices but when I picked up the food the server tried to tell me the prices listed were either for lunch or not accurate! Really? The portions were huge but that just meant they took up more room in the trash when they were dumped! read more

I was in the area and I put in my GPS places to eat I was actually going somewhere a mile up the street when we passed Theresas restaurant I noticed how packed the parking lot was so I knew it had to be good we turned around and we pulled in when we got there it was very packed, they actually had no open available seating but they had a few seats at the bar so we decided to sit there. We started off with the spicy calamari which was delicious along with the bread with the oil after We shared a Caprese salad and the veal and chicken Parm combo the combo came with soup it was so much food. We brought most of it home it was so good even when we had it the next day. we ended with an espresso martini and I was impressed with that as well, definitely going to go back when I'm in the area read more

I 've been going to Teresa for years. My standard line is ,"I have never gotten a bad meal or bad service at Teresa. " If you like authentic Italian food . Teresa is the place for you. Any time we have family visit us from out of state - we always plan a visit to Teresa's. The ambiance is excellent with well space tables and a very accommodating eating area even for large groups of dinners. The servers are very knowledgeable and friendly and make dinning at Teresa a very enjoyable experience. I can only compare it to eating at Nonni's . LOL read more

I was very disappointed the last time I went here. We were seating and no one came to our table. Other people who came in after us were served but after 15 minutes we decided to leave. I have been to this restaurant quite a few times and this didn't happen. It bothered me because there were waitresses standing against the wall doing nothing. Maybe it was an off night but it has left a bad taste in my mouth. read more

This is hands down my favorite restaurant. All our special occasions end up here. The food is incredible, my very Italian friend from New York still raves about this place since we brought her. The stuffed eggplant never disappoints and their meals with the salad, pasta and entrees are enough for 2 days! read more

I come from an Italian family that follows the traditional Italian recipes so I am hesitant to go to Italian restaurants because they are usually awful. But, this restaurant gets it right! I love to dine here, it reminds me of eating at my grandmother's house. The food is awesome! The serving stuff is really attentive without hovering over you. The dining area has a Tuscan feel and is a great place for dinner and drinks. I would definitely recommend going there. read more

So disappointed, the Chicken Francaise that is usually excellent, was definitely sitting around and totally soggy....

Being generous - more like 3.5 stars. I base that solely on the spaghetti and meatballs. I was looking forward to Teresa's since I haven't been there in years. Brought family for lunch. They ordered scallops and veal marsala. Tried a bite of both. Tasty. All came with salads. Excellent house salad and dressing. * They do up charge for blue cheese and caesar dressing. Really? Come on, I know times are tight but the prices for lunch are already not cheap. Service was Excellent! Now to the spaghetti and meatballs: I was hoping for better. I though the sauce lacked any character. Really not a lot of depth at all. Surprising and disappointing. There was a ton of water in the bottom of the bowl causing the sauce to taste watered down, contributing to the lack of character. The meatballs were average at best. Rather dense, and yet again, any real lack of character (not a lot of seasoning, etc.). I know this place is an institution, but I was expecting a lot more from such a simple dish. You would think that being such an established Italian restaurant the dish would be 5+ stars - but it's not. $75 for 3 lunches, 1 glass of wine, and tip. Should be better for that price. Oh well. Life is full of disappointments. read more

We had a great meal here with excellent service! The decor is a bit dated but we will definitely be going back! I had the fried haddock which was cooked perfectly, my wife had scallops and baked fish which was delicious. Prices were reasonable too. read more

Ordered takeout from here once for a birthday, and the dough of my pizza wasn't fully cooked :0 I don't even know how it's possible for a restaurant to mess up a simple pizza, especially an Italian restaurant! The other food we ordered was also just... so bad. The chicken parm sandwich was frozen chicken tenders that had been overcooked and slapped on a sub roll with some sauce, the fish was poorly cooked, etc. I see the parking lot filled up all the time so other people must like it, but I honestly don't understand why or how. read more

Great classic Italian place. Perfect for family get togethers and date nights. I'm personally not the biggest fan of the marinara, but everything else is excellent. read more

Can't tell you how the food was because we didn't stay long enough to find out. We had a large group, and apparently they had another large group that reserved the entire restaurant for later in the afternoon. The hostess was sweet but didn't ask us if we were part of the party that reserved the dining room. As we were sitting down, the manager came out of the back and immediately spoke to us in a manner that was completely unprofessional and rude. She tried to backtrack and apologize for the poor attitude but by then it was too late. We understand you had a previous engagement but there's a way to treat customers to ensure they want to return. read more

Delicious food and great service. Only complaint is the high price. Beautiful building and great bar.

During covid19 pandemic we called for a pizza to go. 20 minutes later we picked up our excellent pizza. As it was delicious and service prompt. Great value for an excellent pizza. In the past we've enjoyed many meals here. Looking forward to seeing them reopen soon. Support your local small business and enjoy great food to keep your spirits up! Quick service and excellent food. read more
