So nice and super helpful when it came to helping us pick from their menu / beer selection since it was our first time here . Would definitely recommend!“

“We visited this restaurant on our last night in Harrisburg. I deeply appreciated their plant-based and gluten-free menus as a vegan (available if you scan the QR code on the regular menu). I got the plant-based eggplant parmesan sandwich with french fries. My partner got a tofu salad with french fries and the chai latte mocktail. Everything was absolutely delicious. It was a bit pricey but worth it for a farm-to-table, ethical dining experience. Service was amazing, as well!“

“We go to eat breakfast at Tito’s almost every Saturday morning. The service is good and the food is always hot and delicious. The owner is very cordial and always makes you feel welcome.“

“Ate dinner there about a week ago. Food was good but their telephone rang at top volume the entire time we were there making it difficult to talk or enjoy our meal. Complained to waitress who said it had to be that way so they could hear in the back for take out orders. The restaurant was far from busy for in house dining so I guess the owner doesn't care about us; only the take out customers! I have eaten here for years and tried to support them during covid but never again.“

“I tried the chicken and French toast, and it was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere has a timeless charm that makes the experience even better.“

Would definitely make it a stop on our next trip to the Harrisburg PA area.“

Why ask how I want my steak if it's never prepared the way I want? No one in the kitchen knows how to prepare a medium steak. Not well done, not medium well but just medium? I don't complain because I don't trust sending food back but please take a course on the different temperatures of steak.“
