If you’ve ever wondered what heaven tastes like, I can tell you it’s the perfectly golden, buttery, garlicky knot of dough that I just had the pleasure of experiencing. These garlic knots are, without a doubt, the greatest I’ve ever had the joy of sinking my teeth into.
First off, let’s talk texture. These knots strike that elusive balance between soft and crispy. The outside has a slight crunch, just enough to make a satisfying sound when you take a bite, but the inside is an absolute pillow of doughy goodness. It’s fluffy, tender, and just the right amount of chewy, which makes every bite feel like a warm, comforting hug.
Now, the garlic. Oh, the garlic. It’s not overwhelming or too pungent, but it’s everywhere. Coated generously on the surface, the garlic comes through with the perfect punch—rich and savory without being overpowering. Then there’s the butter. The buttery coating is so rich, it almost feels like it was made with a touch of love. It’s the perfect complement to the garlic, creating a mouthwatering fusion that you can’t stop reaching for.
And let’s not forget the seasoning. There’s a light sprinkling of herbs—maybe oregano, a touch of parsley—that gives the knots a flavor depth that elevates them from good to legendary. The seasoning is there, but never too much, just enough to make your taste buds dance. It’s like the garlic knots know exactly what they’re doing.
The portion size? Generous. The presentation? Simple, but inviting. Served warm and fresh out of the oven, these knots arrive at the table practically begging to be devoured. And I did. Every last one.
If you’re wondering whether these garlic knots live up to the hype, I’ll tell you this: they exceed it. They don’t just satisfy that garlic craving; they redefine what a garlic knot should be. I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to enjoy another without comparing it to these.
In summary: Perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and with a buttery, garlicky charm that is nothing short of addictive, these are hands down the greatest garlic knots I’ve ever had. If you see them on the menu, do yourself a favor—order them, and prepare...
Read moreAbsolutely Fantastic Pizza. The dough is perfect. The cheese and sauce are excellently combined to make this one of the best slices of pizza in our town. I've eaten pizza at every business in the area, Olyphant, Throop, Dickson City, Scranton, Carbondale, All of them. This pizza master and his family have really done an incredible job to craft a perfect slice. The pizzas are big too. If it's a Friday or Saturday night and you and your friends want to get a GREAT pie, this is the spot to go. All these other spots just don't compare anymore these days. This family nails it. It's a family own and run business. The entire kitchen is visible, clean and well organized. It has warm lighting in the front and you can smell the pizza as soon as you walk in. The reason I'm writing this review is to make you aware of the quality here. You should start buying this pizza over the others. Yeah, I know, the other pizza places have been around for a long time and their names are common house hold phrases now, but this new pizza spot knocks them out of the water. I think you should try this place out and see what I'm talking about. It might become your new favorite pizza place. I loved my pie. 5 Star Pizza for sure. Sooooooo Gooooooood ! Thanks...
Read moreDon't second guess your decision to eat here! There is something for everyone. It's GOOD. Seriously.
Parking is terrible, be ready for that.
If you are visiting Steamtown, add this restaurant to your list of destinations.
The Mexican food is a nice blend of traditional mexican from the southwest, mixed with styles of the northeast. Guacamole is great and as other reviews have said, the al pastor tacos are delicious! They are served street taco style, but you can opt out of onions and or cilantro if you want. The BRC burrito was spot on. We ordered it dry and it still tasted great. The jamaica drink is the best that I have ever had and they make it fresh daily. No mixes.
The Pizza is nice blend of New York style sauce, a denser cheese, and the crust is like a cross between New York style and Chicago style. Not too thin, not too thick. It will fill you up.
The cheesecake is amazing.
And thats only part of the menu we tried...
Well done City Pizza & Mexican Food. Well done. See you on...
