Armetta's Restaurant & Pizza — Restaurant in South Abington Township

I usually don't leave these type of reviews but I feel as if the owners need to know about my experience. I am confused by the four and five star reviews of this place. My family and I were here for a late afternoon lunch and were one of two tables in the entire place. My father-in-law ordered the steak and cheese egg rolls and they were deep-fried to the point of being burnt hockey pucks. In addition, I ordered the chicken marsala and the covetelli marinara. The marinara sauce was highly acidic and tasted like the can it came out of. It also had an overpowering taste of oregano. Oregano is great on pizza but I definitely do not want it to be the prominent flavor in a marinara. The chicken marsala was a bunch of chicken tenderloins cut into cubes and was sitting in a very gummy starchy (again with the oregao) unpleasatly pungeant-tasting sauce that was very unappetizing. Unfortunately, I feel as if the place would be really good if they kept doing what they're doing as far as the pizza is concerned, but their saute cooks need a lesson in sauces and seasoning; and their short order cooks need to pay attention to the deep fryers. Perhaps maybe the owners are good business people and not culinary pros? Did the trained chefs abandon ship during the pandemic? Honest to God, I would love the opportunity to train these cooks and teach them how to make these simple dishes correctly. Also, I think that for the amount of food served they could charge the same price if it was prepared better and cut...

First of all the pizza is the best of its style in NEPA, hands down. This would score high with that whack fool from barstool. But the reason I’m writing this review is because of how friendly and helpful the staff was. I drove about 25 minutes to get there and rolled in accidentally without my wallet. I asked if they accept Apple Pay and explained my situation. (They do not accept Apple Pay) The staff started talking to each other to figure out a solution, and to shorten a long story, they really went out of their way to come up with a digital payment solution without making me drive all the way back home, and they were very understanding and did not act inconvenienced for a second. Most pizza places in this area would not have given us the same courtesy. 10/10 definitely visit this place. It has never been a disappointment once and I’ve been going periodically for at...

We hadn't been here in several years. We wanted to try someplace we hadn't been to in a while. Well, we were very disappointed. We came before the crowds. Our waitress (an older lady) was cold and unfriendly. It was like this was the last place she wanted to be. My wife ordered eggplant parmigiana - cold and all cheese. More eggplant in a tv dinner. My mother-in-law ordered veal marsala which was also cold. Both were sent back and returned to us just as it was without an increase in temp. Both were boxed up and taken home. I had the seafood fra diablo. It was good but for $14.95 it was puny...3 pieces of small shrimp, 2 scallops and 3 clams and some linquini. At least mine was hot. When the crowd showed up we learned the secret: Pizza - YES! Subs - YES! Good hot Italian meal - NO! Can you say...
