Excellent large amount of food with nice friendly service. Seating was a little tight but understand why with the line going out the door to come in. Food is so good people don't care to wait.

Italos is my absolute favorite restaurant hands down. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The service is outstanding even with a packed restaurant. I was there today for my birthday and while they were packed to the brim, they still managed to provide excellent service and the food was absolutely incredible. They sang me Happy Birthday and let me wear the awesome Sombrero. I can’t recommend them enough!

Italo's is a local family owned Mexican restaurant. For many, including myself, it is the *best* Mexican restaurant you can go to in NEPA. The location is in South Scranton, and parking can be hard to find. I often get take out, (Tinga is the best meat choice!) they use a number - so make sure you take note on the phone! Dine-in is always an enjoyable time, and a great place to take friends or family for a night out. It is also very much reasonably priced. 10/10 recommend.

Been coming here for 2 years now and Ms Carmen and her team never disappoints me on the food and experience overall, I always recommend family and friends to this place just because of how much I love it there!!Parking: Obviously being in the middle of southside the parking is limited but so worth it.

The food was amazing. It was the closest you can get from food in Mexico, I walked in with the bar real low because I’ve had bad Mexican food in Texas but this place really took me by surprise.The songs were all bangers, all Mexican hits and really set the mood when you wanna relax at the bar or sit with the family. As to the service, it was good, my waitress was not friendly but definitely not rude. I really don’t mind it, but I can see someone be upset about it. All in all. A new favorite spot in the country.

Restaurant is very busy but service is good and fast. Food is tasty and authentic. Wide variety of options to choose from, including fish, meat and meatless entrees, delicious salads, and good deserts. Signature cocktails to wash it all down with. I do think there should be more meat in the burritos (especially the "Southside "). There is too much rice, and I had to search to find the small amount of tomatos in the burrito. I go often, both dine in and take out. They have never screwed up a take out order for me, and they are usually spot on with the pick-up time. Parking can be problematic at times as it is all street parking, no private lot. You can usually find something within a 2 block radius. Only a problem when it's bitter cold or raining.Like many and most restaurants presently, they print tip amounts on the bottom of your check to choose from - 15%, 20%, 25%, or an option to calculate your own. What I question is why when restaurant owners do this (and they all do this, not just this restaurant), they calculate the percentage of the tip based on the entire bill after tax has been added! Why should consumers tip on the tax that was added? I'm not being cheap, I tip according to the quality of food and service rendered and then base it on the dollar amount I spent to get said food and service. Doesn't seem fair to include the tax in and then give the percentages based on that total. Unfortunately, it seems to be SOP for all restaurants presently, and I wonder why the general public hasn't questioned this.Vegetarian options: I'm not sure if they have a specific vegetarian section on the menu, but there are many meatless options thru out the entire menu, and my vegan friend was thrilled.Parking: Can be difficult during busy times. A 2 block walk is often necessaryWheelchair accessibility: Ramp in front allows people in wheelchairs to get easily into the restaurant
