Would have never made it here had not the receptionist at the hotel raved about it. They didn’t disappoint! I wish I could give more stars.

Have neen going there for years!! As usual, the pizza, ( double crust white, and red), are delicious. I hosted a convention 4 years ago. For dinner, we reserved a space. 30+ people, thousand dollar dinner. Worth every cent. People from Kansas, etc never tasted old forge pizza. The pizza, plus regular Italian dinners, WOWED the crowd. Excellent.... STILL.

★★★★★ 5.0 Ross Riviello · Jan 2026

Awesome food! The prices are reasonable considering the cost of dining in 2026. However you should not come here if you are looking for a fancy dining experience. They only had 2 servers running a whole dining room when I was there. Understandably, the service was rushed but not bad! Also, it was chilly in the restaurant in the middle of December. Another thing to keep in mind if you're looking for a high level of comfort while eating.

This is great Old Forge style pizza if you don’t want to venture into Old forge for it.

★★★★★ 5.0 Christian Feisel · Sep 2025

Colarusso’s Café has always been a favorite of ours. When we lived in the area 20 years ago, we went often for both lunch and dinner. It’s a cozy Italian restaurant with a true hometown feel, and everything on the menu is excellent. The pizza has always been our favorite, so on a recent visit back we stopped in for a tray, it was just as good as we remembered! Warm atmosphere, friendly service, and food that never disappoints.
