Pepperoncini Restaurant Bar, Havertown

We went for the first time on Saturday 11/11. I made a reservation for 6:30, but when we got there we decided to sit at the bar first instead of going upstairs to the dining room. Our bartender, Tina, was wonderful even with a mad rush of people that came in right as we sat down. (I don't know why this struck me, but after our drink order, she said “Will you be dining with me tonight?” We eat at the bar almost everywhere we go, and we've never had a bartender say it that way. Just goes to show how Tina feels about her job. We had “Abby's Sprouts” as an appetizer, and they were amazing! Big enough to have been an entree, but so good we ate it all! I had “Chicken Pepperoncini” with Rigatoni, and it was fantastic. Many times at Italian restaurants I find the chicken cutlets are overcooked and a little tough, but these were perfect. It was a large portion so I brought half home and scarfed it down the next day. My wife had the strip steak special, which has crab on it, and loved it. Again, quite a large portion so she brought half home. For dessert we had a “Pumpkin Butter Cake” which was so good I'm not sure I will even be able to eat a standard pumpkin pie ever again! This place is going to become our go-to; it's fantastic.

Menu was very limited. The restaurant had a $25 Sunday dinner menu which included a side salad. When we asked for additional side salad we were told they couldn't do it because it was only for that $25 menu. Not to mention it was my boyfriend's birthday and he couldn't even get a salad like he wanted. The food was bland and some pasta was cold while others were warm. Our server was very cold and didn't have much of a personality. Frankly, I felt pretty uncomfortable. The vibe was just off. For the limited menu and the lack of seasoning, for $88 for two , I wouldn't suggest it.

The food at this place is amazing, it's a small local establishment serving great Italian dishes. You should go on a Sunday for the items only available on the Sunday Gravy menu. This was our second time there and we will definitely be back!

We eat at this place 1-3 times a month. The food is consistently delicious, well prepared and cooked to order. Never a long wait once the food is ordered. It's easy to have a good night when you eat here
