Roman Delight

have been going here for awhile, always a pleasure! great food — awesome service!

I ate here tonight with my family & I ordered a Large cheese pizza and Shrimp pasta. When my server brought out my pizza it looked as if the pizza was not freshly made it looked as if the pizza was sitting out for 2hours prior then was put in the oven to reheat. I even asked my server like hey what’s up with this pizza pie? He even notice it looked shady and said sorry I’ll have it remade! Remind you we didn’t even eat the pizza it was hard & grossWhen I looked at everyone else’s pizza pies in the dinning room it seem prefect the cheese was hot & stringy. They did remade the pizza which took another 20min then the OWNER wanted to still charge me for a the pizza that he screwed up! I told the owner he can KEEP THE NEW PIZZA I DONT WANT IT ! You would of at least thought he would discount it due to the inconvenience ! Also the shrimp inside my pasta was awful it had absolutely no season! The Owner was very cocky & had a bad attitude I felt as though there a RACIST RESTAURANT WHO DONT PREFER BLACKS AT THERE LOCATION! They will NEVER EARN MY BUSINESS AGAIN.

Just a good, friendly, consistent neighborhood joint. Love the food and the staff is great, most there for many years. I know as I have been eating there for many years. There are good reasons why they can get pretty busy.

I have been going the Roman Delight in Abington since the late 90s, and like it very much. It is a family owned (not a chain), the food is good, and the prices are reasonable. We usually get one of the pasta dishes such as the Chicken Parmigiana, ravioli, or the daily specials.

A seasoned, old school Italian joint. I’ve been visiting Roman Delight when I’m in PA for the last 15 years. They’re not corporate– they have their own flavor and it’s charming.
My aunt lives nearby and gets her pizza delivered from these guys, so their pizza is definitely a few steps above the national delivery chains.
They shine on their nicer Italian dishes. I had eggplant parmesan (very good!), others at my table had chicken marsala and a penne dish with shrimp. My grandparents swear by the BLT club on white toast!

Great Italian family restaurant. Great place for take out or eat in. Very friendly staff. Quick service. Very tasty food. I recommend the eggplant parm.

Never been disappointed with service or food at this place. Very kid friendly with attractive wait staff… meaning everyone has all their teeth, hair pulled back, great hygiene, no ghetto talk etc. Manager/​Owner always on site in case anyone has a complaint. Love their Caprese salad and cheese steaks. Just wish they delivered.

Honestly this place used to be one of my favorites, but it has slowly gone down hill. First off the service is atrocious, now the pizza is meh and it is just too expensive for what you are getting. I don’t know what has happened because this used to be a good place. They decided to up their prices with the new menu they added about 6 months ago or something and now it just is not worth going.

Best pizza in Abington! The mini pies are the perfect way to try different toppings.

Food is always good… been going here for over 25 years
they definitely need to start paying attention to the people they have working there
Due to the fact that I had a sick relative with me. I had to control my urge of decking the punk with the black hat working the register
In all my years of going to restaurants… I never met anyone as ignorant as that wise guy
Now…if that ‘boy’ is family… then I guess my visits will stop there for sure!

This place rocks! I have a little one and an elderly Granny, and this offers something for everyone. Everyone is pleased, thank goodness! I love the salads, the pizza (Grandma) and the pasta. Kid’s meals cheap, too! Not gourmet, but who cares! Desserts not so good…

New to the area and I was looking for a good pizza joint, I read some positive reviews about roman delight so decided to check it out. I am flabbergasted that folk said this is their favorite pizza, this has to be the worse pizza I ever had. When I got it home it was soggy, the crust has no quality to it, the sauce is ehhh, and I spent $ 31 for two pies such a rip off. The one dude behind the counter was very nice but the pizza is not. I went to whole foods today and their pizza is ten times better and cheaper. Two pies four toppings $ 20. Out of this world pizza at whole foods. Roman delight makes claim of having ny style pizza, I am from Brooklyn, their pizza doesn’t even touch NY’s worse pizza joints. I won’t be going to roman delights ever again. One dude who worked there wore a ny giants hat, that’s about all I liked. Go gmen !

We ordered food takeout. I ordered the Chicken Scaripello Dinner. I did not get a salad, I did not get pasta. I did not get rolls and I paid $ 13.95 for 5 small pieces of Chicken Tenders with a lot of sauce. which was butter? and lemon. I feel gyped. The pizza per my son was OK but not great.

Favorite pizza place. Always so fresh and delicious. All of their food is good, but piza is their calling! Garlic knots are awesome too.

This is a solid local spot for a casual lunch or dinner. Certainly not fine dining but that isn’t what they are trying to be.
I’ve been here many times over the years and never been served a bad meal.
Decent beers are a bonus.

OK so we got wings and pizza the other night (Saturday)…I got the Queens Pizza and would have loved it if someone had not put 400 pounds of salt on it. Jim got pepperoni and loved it and the wings were delish. Truly an off night for RD. I ate 1 slice (this coming from a girl who can eat a whole pizza). total bummer this time. I’ll try again, but this is the second time in a row it’s been a salt lick. Odd…

I truly love this place. Its a tad pricier than your standard pizza shop, but I’m more than willing to endorse it because Ive never had an unpleasant experience. As a vegetarian, all I really ask for is vegetables that aren’t ALL from a can, and that it be worth the money. Roman Delight has something many do not. They have FRESH MUSHROOMS!!! (gotta ask for em) Do you have any idea how rare that is??? Especially in the Greater Philadelphia region. Nothing worse than a handful of wet, sad mushrooms to make your pizza soggy.
Second…great salads. The Greek is wonderful, plenty of feta just like I want it, and whole, nice olives. They have a great thing going, and it shows, because you’re most likely gonna wait for a table on a weekend. And THAT should tell ya something when a dining room is as big as theirs.

We went tonight for dinner and got our usual baked ziti with eggplant, which comes with a soup or salad. We chose the minestrone soup. So far so good.
Maybe I’ve been watching one too many episodes of Kitchen Nightmares, but the minestrone soup looked terrible. It was brown and mushy. It still tasted like its usual self– strong tones of nice beef broth, but the vegetables were way overcooked and varied in size.
Next, our main entrée came out and we excitedly dug it. Took two bites before my husband and I both looked at each other and said, «Something doesn’t taste right.» It had a very slight but present aftertaste that tasted like some part of the sauce was going south, smelling slightly of garbage can. We’ve gotten this same exact dish probably 5 or so times in the past and it never had this weird aftertaste. We decided to send it back. Our waitress took it back and told us that they had just made the sauce today and that she could ask them to make it again, or we could order something else. We opted to order a pizza instead, which was quite tasty.
When our check came, our waitress said that she still had to charge us for the soup, even though it supposedly came with our entrée. Our original dish was only $ 13 total, but they charged $ 2.95 for soup that «came» with it. I don’t agree with that decision, and it annoys me that they would still charge us for it, especially since the soup comes out before the entrée. If I would have known, I would have ordered something else that «came» with soup. But, what can you do. And plus, it’s only $ 3.
I just think that the staff should listen more to their customers and not pull sneaky things like that. It’s not much money, but the principle. Not a very good way to keep business.

Took my sons here for lunch.
Had an unfriendly but efficient young waitress who took our took care of our needs even before we asked.
Ordered a pizza, half pepperoni half plain. Came out piping hot, served tableside on a stand.
Thin slice, flavorful sauce and a decent amount of cheese. Main drawback was the amount of grease — made it really hard to eat without a (gasp!) knife and fork. But highly flavorful.
Ambiance isn’t much — think family diner.

I love this place! It’s not gourmet, it’s just a really great pizza/​Italian place where you can bring your family. I’ve come for dinner once and taken the kiddos for pizza lunch multiple times. I enjoy this over smaller places because I get waited on in a comfy cozy restaurant and I don’t feel like I’m in a dive. I like lunch time here. It’s not too busy and the pizza is hot and fresh. Fresh fresh fresh. I hope it’s fresh… otherwise I sound like a derp! DERP! No, it’s good. I am picky about pizza and I keep coming back, so there you have it.
They have TVs dedicated to sports but I don’t ever feel like I’d be over-​run with fanatics. I’d say the ratio of generational clientele is fairly matched, which makes it a great «family» restaurant.
The cheese pizza runs you around $ 12 for a large (or $ 1.75 per slice) but it’s worth it. Flavors are great, cheese & crust have the perfect respected textures. The Caesar salad was fresh and plentiful, but I probably wouldn’t order it again simply because I didn’t care for the dressing and the chicken looked like my mom pan-​browned it… but it WAS fresh and I did finish my plate. I also recommend the white clam pasta and the cheese steaks served on perfectly soft rolls. Yum!
They do serve coffee (for moms like me who somehow made it to lunch without getting a chance to get some coffee) It wasn’t very strong, but it’ll get you through.
Alternately, they also serve beer and WINE. Yes… the first quarter page of the menu tempts you with grapes and bottles. You’re welcome.
Pay at the counter when you’re done and yes they take fantastic plastic.
The End.
