We were pleasantly surprised by Valentino's. Traveling from NY to York, we decided to stop for a bite to eat. Valentino's is right on 222 so we didn't have to leave the highway and it's easy to get back on. They do have gf options. I could get any personal pizza with the cauliflower crust. I opted for the veggie one. Broccoli, onions, peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes. With real mozzarella! Stretchy and delicious. Yum! My husband got the beef wrap with fries and cole slaw. All was tasty and enough for two meals. Total price before tip was $35. It's old style Italian yet very clean. Service was fast and friendly. I definitely recommend this place! read more

My experience at this restaurant was appalling. I ordered a burger and the rest of my family ordered pasta. The pasta was wet and soggy and mushy. My mother only ate the shrimp out of her order, and my sister only had two bites of her pasta until we had enough. Our waiter came over and asked and I quote "how da food taste" I very badly wanted to say not good. But the sincere look in his eyes made me say it was good. After that, I noticed our waiter. Our waiter had his long hair dragging, and even touched our garlic bread not once BUT TWICE! I noticed after I ate the garlic bread and realized I might have eaten a piece of this man's hair. I will never come here again. I hope the best for this place! read more

Great local pizza place. Service is usually good. Nice Italian restaurant! Would definitely recommend.

Love their chicken cheesesteaks. It was a must stop on our recent visit back to Kutztown and they did not disappoint! read more

I'm a local and have been coming here since I was a kid. Best old school Pizza in Kutztown and a nice place for a good old Italian dinner. My wife and I love the Chicken Piccata and if you are really hungry go for the Chicken Parm, it takes up you whole plate! Great location right off 222 if you just passing by as well read more

Ended up around here and this place has a very good steak sandwich. Super friendly staff. read more

I wanted to have leftovers to take home, so I ordered a "small" Stromboli, their medium size, for $27.00, which the restaurant says will serve four to five. I'm sure that is true; however, the number it will serve is meaningless. What matters is the number it will satisfy, and I have a very hard time believing it would satisfy four people with average appetites. Adding insult to injury, the waitress asked if I would care for marinara sauce on the side. I accepted, only to find an additional $2.00 tacked onto my bill for "sauce." I told the waitress to tell the owner or manager of the business that I thought the food was good, but very pricy compared to other, similar, places I have patronized. I added that to charge $2.00 for sauce for a $27.00 Stromboli was abusive. She returned a few minutes later and said that she had told the manager what I had said. She also told me that the manager likes to speak personally with customers about complaints, so I could discuss it with her "up front," if I cared to. Seems to me, it was more the manager's responsibility to seek me than mine to seek her, but I did and, when I found her, I repeated my complaint. She replied that "At Wegman's they weigh everything and charge for everything," to which I replied that hers must be the only pizzeria that considers itself a competitor of Wegman's. At that point, a man behind the counter moved toward me with raised voice. He waved a $20 bill at me and told me to take it, if that would make me happy. When I replied that I wasn't looking for a refund or trying to game the business, I was only making a point they should consider for the betterment of the business, he got even louder and more animated, so I ignored him, turned my back, and left the establishment. I won't be going back, nor will the others who had dined with me. read more

The sandwiches were awesome! As was the service, but if you r gonna charge $5 for fries instead of chips, they should be fresh and hot def were not read more

Driven past this restaurant hundreds of times but didn't dine there until today. Sorry I waited so long. We stopped there for lunch and it was excellent. Service was good, food was tasty and hot. Will definitely be back. Excellent in all respects. read more

Was never seated was totally ignored. They seemed more bar oriented than family dining.Was there with my GF and my kids. Ended up at Ozgoods which was great. read more

I think this place is a decent place the service was good and the food is definitely above average and they don't kill you with the prices I would definitely go back. read more

The service was terrible. We waited over an hour for mozzarella sticks and a strombolli. We asked for a ham and cheese Stromboli only ham and American cheese. It came out with ricotta cheese on it. Not once during the time when we were waiting did our server come to check on us and see if we needed anything. Our food ended up going to waste and 66 dollars went down the drain because they don't know how to follow directions. read more

I've stopped th this restaurant twice both times the chicken platters were very good and the service was excellent. The prices are reasonable and I will definitely return. read more

Been coming here for years, never was dissatisfied until we ordered takeout the other night, 4/15/19....I ordered the large chicken parm sub, all it was was chicken fingers on a hot dog roll, with a slice of American cheese on top, NO sauce! Ugh! My husband got a cheesesteak, the meat tasted like canned meat, very soggy, he couldn't even finish it. My one son got chicken fingers, you would think it would come with fries? Nope. And my other sons blt was nothing but soggy tomatoes and fatty bacon! Very disappointing! I don't know who was cooking that night but they really dropped the ball. We will return, but the only thing we will ever order there is pizza. Sorry Valentino's, I hate to complain but this meal was horrible!! read more

If you're looking for an Overpriced and Small portioned meal of shit quality this is your place to go, if they remember to give you your food that is. read more

cheesecake was an itty bitty little slice for almost nine dollars after tax which if it's homemade and good fine, but my piece was still frozen and they charge 9 dollars for a frozen store bought piece of cheesecake? read more

Went on a Thursday for lunch. Was not crowded. Looked clean. Ate here about 20 years ago. Had a meat personal pizza and a focaccia Coppola, mozzarella with tomato sandwich which came with fries and was a lunch special. The meals were very, very tasty. Portion for the money was very good. Meal was $23.00 and we walked away full. Will return if in the area. read more

I don't always get to visit here other often but when I do it's always awesome! The cheesesteaks are always great but my absolute favorite thing to order is the stromboli! They are so darn good and huge! read more

Pleasant experience. Food was pretty good. Service was very good. We were driving through this town and although not likely to be in that area again, if we ever are, we'd go back to Valentino's. I'd like to try their Stromboli. Lots of great choices on their menu. read more

Valentino's is one of my regular places to eat and drink at. Monday nights they have .20 wings (but make sure you get there early because they have been running out recently.) The pizza is actually pretty decent and their sandwiches are awesome as well. The food overall is pretty good. The bar is limited with draft beers. If you are looking for your typical low end beer, tinos will definitely have it on draft. They do carry a wide selection of bottled beer though. The bartenders are friendly, as well as the wait staff. Prices at Valentinos is very reasonable. Again the type of Italian food you will get here is typical of Berks County. My only criticism is they tend to close the bar at random times. One night they'll stay open till 12 and the next night they will decided to close by 9:30. Overall Valentinos is a nice place to grab good food and inexpensive drinks read more

Tried a cheeseburger which only came with pickles,ketchup, and chips. It was just average. My spouse had lobster bisque which was good and ravioli which was not good. My youngest had a personal cheese calzone which was huge but literally only had cheese in it. She didn't like it. My middle daughter ordered lobster ravioli in vodka sauce which was awful and she sent it back. Finally my oldest daughter had Maryland blue crab ravioli which she thought was average. The garlic bread wasn't very good and bread sticks were extremely chewy. We had a chocolate peanut butter landslide for dessert which tasted pre-made and just taken out of the freezer. We're not coming back here again. read more

I contacted the business on 6/06/2019 to complain about the product I received. I had ordered 3 hoagie sandwiches, but they were all on French baguette bread with the contents spilling out, because the bread was too narrow to contain the contents. I called and asked to speak with the manager and a man came onto the phone who identified himself as the manager. I explained that the bread was too narrow to contain the contents of the sandwiches and he became confrontational and argumentative. He told me to return the hoagies, but I explained that they had already been consumed, after which he told me to still return them. He then said that I am always complaining and to never return to the restaurant again. I then requested his name, but he refused to provide it and asked me repeatedly for my name. I called again later on that day to speak with the employee, Joe, that I normally place my orders with and asked for the name and contact information of the owner, but he also refused to provide me with the owner's contact information, told me the owner's name is Sal and said, "He's the owner & I stand behind him 100% no matter what he says because he's like family to me". It's very sad that these people are so unprofessional, because I am a regular, weekly customer and do not deserve to be treated in such a rude manner. For a supposed manager to refuse to provide his name is absolutely ridiculous and for other employees to excuse and support that behavior is sickening. The owner of Valentino's Pizzeria in Kutztown, PA should be ashamed to allow his employees to attack and be rude towards paying customers without facing any repercussions or accountability for their actions. I'll never again return to that restaurant, because they fail to realize that without the customers, they wouldn't have a paycheck! read more

Family and I eat here weekly 20+yrs. Service is quick and professional. Food is all very good. Pizza is excellent. Sicilian is very good. Cold sandwiches are very good. Cheesecakes are excellent. All stromboli are excellent. Soups are very good. Antipasto and salads excellent. The only appetizer that I won't order again is calamari, probably frozen thus chewy. Never got a dessert just too full for that. Mixed drinks are very good. Big selection of beer and taps deliver fresh beer. We've gone to all of the local places that are ok but V's is consistently pleasing with reasonable pricing. read more

Food arrived cold. Not authentic Italian food. Waitress is not knowledgeable of food. Pass this if coming this way. Your stomach and bowels will thank you. read more

We used Valentino's for a catered lunch at my work and the food was AMAZING. The staff was so incredible to work with and everything arrived piping hot, organized, and most importantly very tasty. I cannot say enough good things about them. The attention to detail was impeccable. I would recommend to anyone and everyone!!! read more

Let's start with the first bite, your mouth is greeted with a firm and satisfying crunch that transports you to another realm, a realm where pizza is the only thing that matters. As you continue eating the pizza you're greeted with a rolling lava of marinara and oh so gooey mozzarella cheese, the sensation overtakes you, it becomes you, and creates a poetic bliss that travels from your mouth to the rest of your body. Once you reach the end of your pizza endeavor, you are filled with the feeling of great sadness and confusion, for now your pizza is gone and now you have nothing left in your life. But you do not let this sadness overcome you because what you've gained from this experience is knowledge, a knowledge of what love really is, and what pizza is really supposed to be. read more

Ordered a large cheese pie, jalapeno poppers, mozzarella sticks and boneless wings. The pizza was horrible, I've had better fund raiser pizza, cold cardboard. I doubt it's made there, tasted frozen and the crust and cheese were way too even throughout, processed? Poppers were diced jalapeno and cheese in a deep fried crust, but my styrofoam box was burnt from the microwave. Again, suspect. Boneless wings were OK, but nothing to brag about, mozzarella sticks just like the wings. I received a ticket towards a free pizza once I purchase 15 pies. That's in the trash along with the food because I certainly will not be going back. read more

Good service and food. Our waitress handled our large party very well. I only got a salad and garlic bread, but everyone seemed to enjoy their food and my berry sangria was delicious. read more

Good Italian food at.this local spot on Route 222 and Long Lane just outside of Kutztown. Tasty pasta and pizza. Good deals on smaller portions like spaghetti with soup or salad for only $7.99. Pasta is better than their sandwiches. Very good garlic knots. Specials each night--Tuesday seniors get 20% discount. read more

So many pizza shops in and around Kutztown, that you'd wonder why I'd bother going to Valentino's? well, this place really several steps above the rest. We go there periodically when the pasta cravings happen! Valentino's has the typical Italian restaurant fare, but it's good. Dinners include a fresh salad (thankfully not made with whit lettuce!) made with romaine lettuce, a few dukes, olives, cheese. It's quite good. I have a few face things, pasta with clam sauce or manicotti, chicken or eggplant parma. maybe not gourmet, but really very good . Comes with garlic bread or plain Italian bread. Also, a nice little bar so you can enjoy your meal like a grown up, with a glass of wine or beer. Also, their take hoagies are much better than the average hoagie shop, better meats and cheeses, very yum! read more

Stopped while driving through the area and had a good meal. I had the Ground Chopped Sirloin, my wife had the Potato Gnocchi and my daughter had the kids Personal Pizza. My Chopped Sirloin was better then average as was my wife's Gnocchi, the portions were both pretty large. My daughter's pizza was really a cut above a lot of the pizza places I have stopped at while traveling and the portion was huge for being on the kids menu. I would stop here again when passing through. read more

Wow Perfect food isn't really the way to describe it. Saturday afternoon after the driving range with a bar across the street after golf? What more could you ask for??? Service was prompt Staff was happy to see us They even let us change their tv channel to watch golf! Pizza was perfectly made and their sandwiches We're just as delicious.... easy access on 222n read more

This place is amazing! Personal pizzas were awesome. I defiantly had the best chicken piccata I have ever eaten. I come rather often and I have never had a bad entree and I would suggest Valentinos to everyone. Plus after nine they have dollar domestic drafts, dollar slices and 1/2 priced small hoagies! In addition the wait staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. read more

I have never been a big fan of this place. I think the pasta is just ok and the pizza is nothing special either. They used to have a nice salad bar but the was about it. The service was never all that special and it wasn't like the prices were amazing. It certainly could be worse. The food is decent, it's much better than just edible, but it isn't earth shattering. read more

Best pizza and cheese steak place. Coming so many years...even back to my days in the eighties when I worked for Adidas pizza is awesome.

The best Italian sandwich in the area Stromboli is very good n wing night on Monday Sal n Cathey are great bartender Baron is entertaining First Saturday of the month is a karaoke night read more

Valentinos is a great place for family dinner, somewhere to go after a sports event, or for great carry out service. We just had our entire wrestling team there after picture night, and it was excellent. The food was authentic and came out quickly, and the staff did a great job with all the kids. I would definitely recommend valentinos to anyone looking for somewhere to go in the Kutztown area. read more

Good local Pizza... Friendly atmosphere hours are good and prices are reasonable. Sometimes the parking is a little tight but always Awesome service when picking up, always ready when they say it is. Years of great quality food. read more

We participated in the Kutztown Mat Club fundraiser at Valentino's. We had not been to Valentino's for many years and this meal was much better than we remembered. Our waitress was friendly and fun. Everyone ordered from the lite menu and the portions were just right for dinner. I enjoyed the cheese manicotti with chili as my soup. Both were very good. If you haven't been to Valentino's for a while, stop by soon. I don't think you will be disappointed! read more
