La Dolce Casa - Tamaqua

2/16/24 I'm an elated customer, what else can I say? Consistent 5 Star Service and Food! Decorations still up until the end of February. Alfie knows how to execute food out of the kitchen with efficiency without sacrificing quality. This is REAL Italian cooking at its finest. Top quality ingredients! You'll never leave hungry- the value is there all day long! You'll get at least two- maybe three meals out of a pasta entree. I tried the shrimp scampi- it was fantastic. Husband had Seafood Pescatore and the seafood was heaped on the plate. You won't be disappointed! Lots of Lenten Options too!

If you like red sauce Italian, you 'll love this restaurant. If you think red sauce Italian is a put down, you need to try La Dolce Casa. We drove the 45 miles from home to try this unique place after reading scores of positive reviews on social media related to its over-the-top holiday decorations. The latter was in force as well as extremely well-prepared and large portioned garlic rolls, gnocchi with vodka sauce and calzone that 's a medium in the photo! . And the red sauce gravy to those in the know was life changing. Be prepared for a long wait but worth it!

We went to this restaurant on a Monday evening during the Christmas season and the decorations were stunning! We ordered a chicken, bacon, ranch pizza and it was delicious, one of the best I've ever had. Our server was fantastic and very attentive (and he made amazing holiday drinks!). The couple at the next table ordered the chicken and/or veal parm and the portions were huge! Everything that came out of the kitchen looked incredible. I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant, the only downside is that it's about a 45-minute drive from my home.

I got a gluten-free pizza that was so soggy. I picked it up and the entire middle just fell off. There was just some crust that I could chew on the rest of it was wet and spongy. I heard good things about this place but this is the second time I've been there in the second time I've had a bad experience. I mean I'm a New York, Italian, born and raised, but I'm not a jerk when it comes to Italian food. I'd be willing to try some of their other stuff, but what I've had has been really poorly made.

The food is fantastic, the service is exceptional, and the atmosphere is delightful! The owner and staff are very attentive and take pride in their work. The chefs put great care into every dish. Even though it's not close to home, this is a place I will definitely return to time and time again.
