“It is a diner and a pizzaria rolled into one...... diner area on the left and pizzaria section on the right. I've had a fabulous breakfast there and a delicious meatball parmesan sadwich from the pizzaria. The diner closes at 2pm and not sure if the pizzaria uses those tables for dinners once the diner is closed. I mention that because the pizza side only has 2 or 3 tables. Otherwise no issues!“
“I ordered a half pan of lasagna to take with me and it was piping hot, fresh out of the oven at the scheduled time and, oh my gosh, it was absolutely delicious!! We brought it to my brother's new house without having to cook and it was fantastic!“
“The strategy to winning a case in court is to follow this simple procedure: 1-Tell the jury what you are going to do. 2. Do it. 3. Summarize and tell them how you did it. This same formula works to perfection at what has been called "Troy's best kept secret." Proudly displayed on the shirts that several of the staff and chef's wear two vital commitments are proclaimed. "Comfort Food" and "Famiglia.".So there is no pretense here. This is no place for nouvelle cuisine with its miniscule portions and esoteric dishes. Rather it is an embracing, warm establishment where the care and love that are emblematic of the southern Italian culture are continually in evidence. You would expect than the storied favorites to be served up in impressive portions where flavors are married into a tasteful delight. At Testo's you have come to the right place. Elsewhere on Yelp another reviewer will state that Testo's and Verdile's are equals, with strong proponents for each. I couldn't disagree more. In fact that is like saying "I can't quite choose between a 1974 Chevy Vega and a 1973 Porsche 911 for sale at the same price. HAH! Testo's blows their supposed rival right out of the water in terms of atmosphere, service, portion size, menu choices, TASTE of the food, dedication to quality, and diner satisfaction. One time there some months ago and I will never return to the Chevy Vega. One time at the Porsche 911 and I had to return the very next day for the Friday special, having been delighted with the Thursday special of lasagna. And oh, the sauce! No wonder they bottle and sell it right there at this friendly neighborhood restaurant. It is like my Father's and maternal Grandmother's, nurtured on either sides of Mt. Etna in Sicily. A great sauce is known by its texture and a taste that is a medley of flavors that let the tomatoes sing. I have had so many mediocre to terrible red sauces served at supposed Italian restaurants that I could scream, or cry, or give up on trying to recapture what MY "famiglia" did so well and so consistently. Thank God I at last discovered this treasure still imbedded in memories of the Sunday gatherings of Italian-Americans with one foot still in the old country. These are glorious, boisterous affairs of up to twenty or more relatives. Dino Martino (Dean Martin to non-Italians) singing the songs of Naples (I shed a silent tear at "Return to me oh my darling"), or that early sixties' favorite "Volare." Now to the food, the star of all great restaurants. The lasagna was as well prepared as the sauce, creamy and stuffed with the joy of high quality ricotta (I swear some Jersey Diners use cottage cheese--an "infamnia")! Having seen a photograph of a layered apple dessert on their website, I took courage in hand (because the lasagna portion was indeed generous). A brilliant move on my part. It came warm and beautiful with real whipped cream and several healthy scoops of vanilla ice cream to the side. Even the coffee is top notch, always fresh and deeply flavored. I can't leave out the wonderful staff that enhances the dining experience. From the sweetest and kindness young woman you are like to meet these days, Daisha, to Testo's own Talia Shire/Connie (from 'Godfather II era, please) Lisa who guides her young servers with impeccable knowledge and a steady hand of encouragement. Unlike Verdile's bored ancients doing a "Stepin Fetchit" routine (look it up), this crew throws themselves into their responsibilities with enthusiasm and efficiency., guaranteeing that their service will be the equal to the very fine cuisine. Prices are fair and in keeping with the investment in nothing but the best ingredients. "Skimping" is simply not in the vocabulary of the two sons who make their founding father proud. My friends, this is an immersive experience in the best of classic Italian-American food and culture. You will be like family, comforted by food and feeli“
“Cute little place, I ordered garlic knots, 8 slice pizza, bacon bleu burger and bbq boneless wings. The garlic knots are huge and soft couldn’t taste the garlic but it was still good. The Burger was delicious it was cooked right and had chipotle mayo and bleu cheese crumbles on it and that was my first time trying chipotle mayo DELICIOUS. The boneless chicken was good too, best sauce.“
“I'm giving a somewhat grudging 4 stars tonight. Great pizza, frustrating service.Waited outside for 25 minutes for the order to show as ready but it never did, so if you pick up just go inside and ask about it. The pizza itself was wonderful once I heated it back up.“
“One of my favorite comfort foods. Can't beat the prices. Not to mention. These guys are usually up and delivering earlier as well as later than most. With everything that you expect of a sub /pizza shop. I like that I can order online but don't have to choose to pay electronically. I can still finalize my order and choose to pay cash on delivery. I can't tell you how many times I will have cash on me but hate to place orders over the phone, I'm someone who has to look at the menu as I'm ordering. Or I'll forget what sounded good.Kid-friendliness: They understand picky eaters and always have a perfect solution for my kids.“
“The Tavern style pizza is the BEST pizza I've ever eaten, and I've eaten a lot of pizza. I live in Watervliet and I'll drive over some nights when the missus and I have a craving. Seriously Stillwater always has three pizzerias, this is the one you need to try if you're in the area. Plus the owner is always an awesome personable fella.“
“I'm so happy this place was reopened! The Bartenders were so awesome! I love the vibe of the entire place, the historic building is so cool. Everything was great - they had espresso martinis on tap and they tasted perfect. The mozzarella logs appetizer were amazinggg and the french onion soup, burger and pizzas were great too. Definitely recommend!“
“The pizza was fantastic, cooked well, plenty of toppings. They were pretty nice, though it was quite the wait. I wish they had been more accurate in their estimate.I recommend trying some pizza from Doms, but be careful if you're in a rush.“
“I have been coming here for 25 years. My favorite is Antipasto and a Pepperoni Pizza, calzones. Always fresh, hot. Sometimes there is extra grease so make sure to have extra napkins. Owners are very nice and welcoming. There are a couple of booths to sit at. My order is always ready in 20 minutes. Always a good experience for me. Recommend.Parking: The pizza shop is in a type of strip mall with a huge free parking lot. So plenty of spots.“
“The portion sizes are great, the salads and sandwiches are delicious and the service is fast. I have type-1 diabetes and the pizza has always made my blood sugar higher then other pizzas.Vegetarian options: Vegetables have always been fresh and clean.Kid-friendliness: My kids have liked everything they have eaten here. The servers have been kind to my kids anytime they have come with with us.Parking: The parking is right in front of the entrance and on the the west side of the building.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp right to the front door.Dietary restrictions: We have never been denied a request to change, substitute or modify a menu item.“
“This place is quite elegant for a Golf Course Clubhouse. I couldn't give it 5 stars because I don't drink. I found the brewery entertaining. It's a destination if you like beer or want to see a show. The food was fantastic and the Servers are attentive!“
“CALZONES ARE STUFFED. LAST ME FOR FIVE MEALS. SO FAR HAD HAM, SPINACH OR BROCCOLI STUFFED INSIDE IT. SWEET POLITE STAFF. VERY GOOD REASONABLE SANDWICHES. FORGOT MY PURSE HERE. THREE MEN IN NEXT BOOTH TO THANK FOR GUARDING IT! MARPE'S, MARPE'S, A NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICE. AND...GAS STATION“
“We had a surprise party in their banquet room. Their room is spacious, comfortable with a great atmosphere. There were over 50 people whom attended and throughly enjoyed the room and the buffet which was constantly kept stocked and freshened the entire time. Shout out to Courtney our hostess for a fabulous job. She was very attentive, accommodating and always a smile.“
