We were here with another couple a week ago and really enjoyed it. We split the Eggplant Napoleon and it was terrific. I had the Chicken Parmigiana and it was excellent, the chicken was pounded thin and it was a huge serving. My wife ordered White Risotto and added shrimp and it was very good. The woman we were with had the Penne Melissa and loved it, it's tomato, cream, sausage, roasted pepper, artichoke heart and mushroom. Her husband had Chicken with Mimi Sauce and also enjoyed it, it's artichoke hearts, sun dried tomato and mushroom in savory rosemary sauce. The entrees came with choice of soup or salad. My dish came with a side of pasta and the others with potatoes and vegetable of the day. At first glance I thought the menu looked a bit expensive for Italian food but I must say it was worth it, the portions are huge and the food was excellent. All the waitresses were polite and attentive but it did take a very very long time for the food to come out. They were very busy however but I did notice a table or two that were severed faster. I suggest calling ahead and making a reservation. The place was very clean and they have a large parking lot.

Great little family restaurant. I always prefer going there for breakfast, prices are very reasonable and portions are large! Update 01/20/2017Decided to take my girlfriend here for dinner on Friday. I selected the chicken parm, she picked another chicken dish. The pasta and sauce than accompanied my chicken was very good. The quality of the chicken on the other hand, was not. The waitress was very observant and noticed that we didn't care for our food (without us even saying anything to anyone about it) and offered to get us something else, or a free dessert. Though we didn't take her up on it, we appreciated the gesture. Due to this high level of service that we received we will absolutely be back. My only recommendation to the restaurant would be to find a better quality of chicken. Everything else was excellent.

Terrific old school family pizza place with some interesting appetizers and gourmet pizza options. They always have great specials, too! One of my favorites among classic Old Forge pizza landscape.

51 years and still going strong. You come here for pizza and porketta sandwiches. That is what Revelloâs is all about. Limited menu but what they have is great.

At restaurant with family for dinner. Waited 3 hours for entrees. When finally served, all did not receive their meal; more wait time. Table was nearly finished with their meals when last entree was served. Asked to speak with management. Was told the person was too busy. Really? Some entrees were just about inedible; veal piccata had so much lemon your mouth puckered, and veal was very thick & chewy. Entire dish unappetizing. Veal parmigiana was just as bad. No dessert offered as an apology nor complimentary beverage. Nada. Nothing. Like...too bad for you. Worst dining experience ever in Old Forge. Do not waste your money or time at Cusumanoâs.

My wife was working long hours recently. We decided to order take-out for convenience. My wife and daughter voted for Salerno's Pizza despite my disagreement. We have had their pizza and it is just not good, in my opinion, at least for everybody. This is a niche style pizza. If you like hard crust, burnt cheese and little to no sauce, then THIS is the place for you. I have said to my family previously I did not care for their pizza, but I lost again. Well I was SO RIGHT this time, my wife opened the box and shook her head in disgust, took two pieces, finished one and then asked if anyone wanted anymore of "THIS". I forced two pieces, my daughter one, which she shared crust with the dog and my wife proceeded to throw the rest out. The old saying is "Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on ME." There WILL BE NO THIRD TIME! There are too many quality pizza shops in the area and I will no longer pay for substandard food being passed off as fit for human consumption. As I said, if YOU like it....God Bless and enjoy, but never another cent of my money spent here.

We had cuts of the red tray pizza. Hot out of the oven. Very good. There was a basket of small round loaves of bread. It was so good. I wish I had some olive oil with garlic and spices to dip it in. Definitely a good stop if you are in the area. Mary Lou and Rebecca were very nice.

Food was good. Two of party ordered haddock items. My haddock with lobster sauce was good as far as the fish part, not the best with the "lobster sauce" part. Another who ordered pork chops said meat was kind of tough. Portions were generous. Twice baked potato was very good. I would return and try something else. We not rushed as we took our time (like to talk) from appetizers to dessert/coffee close to 2 hours.

We came in on a Saturday night sat at the bar. the two male bartenders just great service and drinks. UNLIKE all change restaurant drinks, either coming out of a gun or very little liquor . The drinks where great . love the bread basket and bread sticks. We order the sole and chicken franchise. Both where excellent. Prices are also very reasonable for the quality of food. nice friendly bar !! Keep up the great work !!

Six of us chowed down on the perfect pizza:Red sauce, onions and billowy cheese atop a perfect crispy on the bottom/flavorful on the top crust. Having visited Old Forge numerous times over the decades, we were delighted as a family to have savored the best from the Pizza Capital of the World. Attentive service and ideal beer and wine options doesn't disappoint either. The remainder of the menu is pure Italian. Another reason to return!
