Try the “suprimo” and the marinated mozzarella salad but stay away from the rice pudding.  High volume means fresh ingredients and efficient service. Click for the review.

Stop in for a great grilled chicken taco or some affordably priced guacamole. Wouldn’t try the seasonal mango salad though. Click for the review.

Ella Maria Pizzeria: 1254 West Chester Pike Havertown, PA 19083

A fantastic slice of tomato pie for one dollar and a porchetta sandwich that is out of this world are just two examples of the soulful Italian-American cuisine served here. Click for the review.

Some pretty darn good pancakes with real maple syrup and service with a smile are the hallmarks of this neighborhood diner. Just be sure to ask for the maple syrup. Click for the review.

Aperto BYOB: 232 Woodbine Avenue Narberth, PA 19072

The old Gemelli space has a new chef, owner and entirely new menu. You will not be disappointed. Try the fabulous salmon tartare with tzatziki or the veal cheeks. It’s not exactly summer fare but they're so tender and delicious it’s worth it. Click for the review.

Christopher’s a Neighborhood Place: 108 North Wayne Avenue Wayne, PA 19087

The chef/owner here is warm, friendly and a veteran of the restaurant industry. He makes a killer chile relleno and still has a sweet spot for the desserts from his pastry chef. Click to meet the chef.

Alfredo: 668 Lancaster Avenue Berwyn, PA 19312

Italian food good enough to satisfy a first generation Italian-American, this highly rated newcomer was the real deal. Try the caprese salad or their pasta dishes. Be careful where you park though. Click for the review.
