5 Best Italian Restaurants near Blakeslee

“Easily best pizza on the mountain. I grew up in North Jersey where good pizza is everywhere. I now live near Philly where good pizza is in North Jersey. We also have a place up here near Lake Harmony, and this is by far the best. 2 things I would improve, but will not knock my score, get a better location as most of the store fronts are abandoned. Secondly, the slices are way better than the whole pie you will take away. Employees here are friendly and have table service. Reminds me of most of the hole in the wall pizza joints I grew up on... and that's a good thing.“

“Been by Cosenzas hundreds of times and finally decided to give it a try after I learned of the vegan options they provide! Though I am not vegan, my girlfriend is so finding places that we can enjoy is a bit more challenging.I saw the "vegan pizza" on their marquee and looked it up on Google where I found an abundance of vegan praises so we had to give it a try.We were not disappointed at all! Half the customer area is set up like pizzeria style and the other half is a nice dining area. Waitress was attentive and got us started. When we checked the menu the only vegan food we saw was the pizza. From what I read on Google I knew they had more options so I asked and good thing. They have a completely separate vegan menu so you'll likely have to ask if thats what you are looking for!Vegan menu was decent as it is but the waitress also told us that if there is something we want vegan, and they have the ingredients (from their vegan menu items) then they will likely make whatever we wanted. (i.e. if we wanted a vegan cheeseteak pizza, which isn't on the menu, they will add the vegan "beef" along with peppers and onions or whatever and boom, vegan cheesesteak pizza).I got traditional ravioli and meatballs and it was great, no complaints whatsoever.We will definitely be back and I hope the other foods we try are equally gratifying!“

“We have been patrons for over a decade. Their food is good, hot, and consistent. The sauce is a bit on the sweet side, but we like it that way. Order a Sicilian with peperoni, fried onions, meatballs and sausage....the 903 way. You won't be disappointed if you like a little sweeter sauce. Thanks for all the years of great food!“

“This place is great the staff are friendly and the food is good and constant in flavor. They also have tables to sit in as well . My top favorite dish here is the Fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken and broccoli. Just add a dash of Parmesan cheese and black pepper and it's even more “

“I traveled 1 hour to Valario's last Friday for dinner, after having not been since 2019. The beers were fresh, the pizza was absolutely delicious, fresh and cooked to perfection and the service was great. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming. I will be coming back for dinner again and I would recommend this pizza pub to ANYONE. I forgot what a gem this place truly is.“
