“I don't live in the Poughkeepsie area anymore,, but I still think about this place.And it's the first thing that I look forward to when I come back.Wheelchair accessibility: It's easily accessible to handicapped people also.“
“I haven’t ordered from TJs in a long time due to my food always being cold when delivered. It hurt because I loveee TJs (esp their cheesecakes, best in Poughkeepsie, better than pastry garden, argue with ya mutha) …. Anyway, I gave TJs another chance last night. Ordered wings (crispy), cheese fries, cheesecake and a large pie (well done)… it was prob one of the first times in a longgg time that my cheese fries didn’t need to be reheated. I put the food inside and chased my delivery driver to give him a bigger tip. I think I was so shocked I forgot to grab my soda from him ? His named was Mark, super nice guy awesome service… the kids and I were so happy. I don’t even write reviews!! If Marks not there I’ll just pick up my order from now on.“
“We had my Mom's surprise 80th Birthday Party on March 2, 2024. We could not have been happier at Joseph's! We had close to 70 guests and no one was disappointed with their entrees! We started with a salad, went to a pasta and then our guests had a choice of fish, chicken or steak! Everything was absolutely delicious! The chocolate mousse cake was simply out of this world! Deidra (Manager) was amazing to work with and paid close attention to every detail. The staff was extremely accommodating and personable to boot! The Birthday Girl was quite Happy and this will be a day she will never forget! Thank you Joseph (Owner) for helping us create this awesome memory that my Mom will never forget! Music by Michael Hite completed the event! If you are looking for a venue for a special event- Joseph's will not disappoint! 5 stars! THANK YOU!!!!“
“This place is a diamond in the rough! I’ve been going to this plaza for years and it’s hard to believe I just realized recently that this place is awesome. DO NOT SLEEP ON THE CHICKEN & SHRIMP SALAD it’s really good! And the pizza is fire! This place reminds me of pizza places I used to do to as a kid in the city. Wraps and chicken tenders are awesome too!!! AND THEY DELIVER!Kid-friendliness: Brought my 4 kids, there was a handicapped man sitting near us the staff was really cool and accommodating for us and the other familyDietary restrictions: Good place to get really good protein packed salads that last a couple meals. Good for dieting the salads are amazing“
“This place had great customer service and great food! I had the lobster roast and it was amazing lobster that also came with muscles, clams and shrimps. They only do this during the summer on Wednesday and Thursday. When I was there it was not packed at all, and it was reasonably priced. The people I was with said this was some of the best stuff they ever had and they are well versed in their Italian food.“
“Excellent food. Excellent service. We are from out of town looking at Ancestry records and was time for lunch. So happy with our choice. It helped that someone passing us on the sidewalk said it was a good choice. Lots of locals eating here as well. We ate it before I thought of taking photos....sorry I could have llicked the plate.We had the shepherds pie....Excellent! And a turkey sandwich on Rye. Fresh turkey w/ lettuce/tomato and Swiss cheese...Excellent!“
“We thought we would miss our local deli when we moved up here from Brooklyn. Turns out we were moving closer to the greatest deli we have ever known. Unbelievable sandwiches and gf bread cannot be rivaled.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free bread“
“May family has been enjoying Rossi’s Italian food for the last 30 years. They’ve only gotten better! We always enjoy the food and service, regardless of the location we visit.Just a side note; one reviewer commented on the service, here’s what I’d like to say: there are very few that can produce the volume that Rossi’s does during holiday and daily, especially with their sandwich’s. There aren’t many quality establishments that can pump out 475 orders between noon and 6:00 on a given day. Have a little patience, for those of us that go there all the time, it’s always worth it!!!??“
“Best place in the area. The food is amazing and reasonably priced. Me and my friends found Emiliano’s when we were freshman at Marist. After covid we starting going back every Saturday for the rest of our time at Marist. Both of the owners are the best and I highly suggest giving them your business. I miss going there every “
“Food: 4.75 Ambiance: 4 Service: 4 The pizza is amazing! Thin crust, crispy, great flavor. 5/5! My husband got the Sabrina sandwich which was off the hook.. Crispy fresh bread, thin chicken cutlets, pesto, balsamic.. *chef's kiss*. Where I went wrong was in ordering the Thai chichen salad. I knew better, but I was in the mood for some fresh greens. Well... The "salad" was 75% noodles and heavily covered in dressing. Stick with the Italian food here, as the name suggests, and you will be happy! The place looks gorgeous on the outside. In the inside, the decor is nice and sophisticated. Deceivingly to the outside, it's got more of a dressed up bar vibe than I expected. The service was friendly and did all things right, though they seemed a bit distracted. I never knew the makers of planet wings could make such great food! I'll definitely be back.“
“We went here for lunch this weekend and couldn't have had a better experience. The food was delicious, and the waiter and all the other staff we interacted with were friendly. The waiter clearly thought that he wasn't moving fast enough in terms of delivering things to the table/refilling drinks, etc, so with literally no prompting from us (and we certainly wouldn't have asked because we're pretty patient people), Cosimo's comped not just the appetizer we ordered, but told us we should all order dessert on the house. All of us enjoyed our lunches (4 different sandwiches + fries) and the meatball appetizer was delicious, as were all of the desserts. We really had a great experience. I presume they try to go above and beyond because the menu is on the expensive side and they don't want any bad reviews, but they certainly aren't going to get any unpleasant reviews from us. High recommend.“
“If you’re undecided about going to eat here let me tell you you MUST go and eat at this restaurant. This was the best food and desert I’ve had in a very long time. And I have been to many restaurants from Canada all the way down to NY and NJ!!! “
“Homey Italian restaurant. Family owned for decades. We arrived 30 minutes before closing, and were greeted warmly and seated right away. Others continued to come in right up to the top of the hour closing time, and were seated. Good to know when you are traveling and passing through. Our drink and food orders were placed quickly. The salad that came with our pasta dishes was delicious and generous. My Pasta Carbonera was absolutely delicious. His Linguine Bolognese was just as good! Generous portions meant we took some home with us. Our only complaint was our iced tea was pretty weak. He had an espresso to complete our meal. If we ever find ourselves back in Poughkeepsie, we'll be stopping by Aloy's!“
“Really nice experience. Ate alone after dropping my kid off at college. Very friendly staff…and good food. Had the penne aka vodka (delicious) with a green salad. Inexpensive for what you get. Large portion. Very satisfying. Not fancy…but clean and comfortable!Parking: Tons of parking. Located in a strip mall.“
“Our waiter was very nice. Dinner was good. Party of 4, we tried their famous salad, Zuppa Toscana soup, and Chicken & Gnocchi Soup, which came with breadsticks it was all delicious. Entrees ordered were Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli, Chicken, and Shrimp Carbonara, Chicken Tortelloni Alfredo with Broccoli, and Chicken & Shrimp with Broccoli. To our surprise, we really enjoyed the food. There was a 30 minute wait for a table.“
“Fantastic pizza ! Wonderful friendly staff and great service.Our first time here, definitely won't be our last.Ordered four slices, they heated it up for me to perfection. Crust was just right, thin and a bit crunchy.I highly recommend this wonderful spot !“
“My first time getting anything from Joe’s!I ordered through Door Dash from Joe Christiano’s on a Friday @ close to 4 pm. My food arrived right around 5, so a great team effort between the restaurant and Door Dash!I ordered a Bacon, Chicken, Ranch Pizza. I also ordered a grilled chicken wrap as some fried cheese raviolis.Pizza was a good size for the price and was cooked well. I would have preferred it cooked a little longer so the cheese is stretching and would have liked a neater distribution of the chicken and toppings. Seems to me it was a bit of a rush job with almost all the chicken in the center. Crust was soft enough to eat easily which was refreshing and the slice itself was thin. Personally, I could easily eat 3 slices at 5,10” & 200 pounds!The grilled chicken wrap was the star of the show. I could see, smell and taste how fresh it was and it was layered well with the ingredients. This dish got the most value for the portion vs cost! Tasted great and was better than many others I had from different restaurants. This came with fries but they were extremely salty.Lastly, and least impressive was the fried cheese raviolis. They didn’t taste bad, I just didn’t taste much. The edges were really tough to almost hard and they were very greasy. These came with Marinara sauce which was standard as far as portion and taste. Not my favorite thing to eat and probably wouldn’t order it again.As of today, the current review rating is @ 4.4 and I believe that is a perfect rating for this restaurant! If they pay more attention to some of the small details in the food I can see the ratings move higher!Overall, prices are competitive, if not better than comparable restaurants and the quality is there! I’d recommend“
“Had the vegan pizza with artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes, red pepper, mushrooms. It was perfect. Perfectly seasoned, crispy (not soggy as a lot of places seem to make veggie pizzas)... I love Daiya cheese and any complaints about it are strange... if you are having vegan cheese you know the limitations of non-dairy cheese, don't expect it to be the same.Service was great, friendly and fast, although granted we were there off-hours. Atmosphere is nice, tables overlook the street, bright artwork and everything seems squeaky clean. Will definitely come again next time we are in town!“
“We are here visiting the area for the weekend. This restaurant exceeded expectations. The food was delicious and the staff service is really great. If you’re looking for good food and great service highly recommend you come here to eat. You will not be disappointed.“
“Traveling for the weekend and decided to stop in for dinner and it did NOT disappoint. The food, the ambiance, the service -- all phenomenal. We were so happy we stopped in. Some of the absolute best Italian cuisine I'd had (we had the Shrimp Rose and Chicken Parm).“
