" Fantastic restaurant with authentic Italian food! I absolutely loved the ambiance with its throwback decor from the 60s. We ordered a variety of pastas, but the standout item was definitely the meatball sub. It was enormous and full of flavor. The only drawback was the counter service, as it felt a bit rushed during peak hours, and we had to remind the staff for our drinks. Nonetheless, we’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you’re craving authentic homemade Italian food, Yarusso Bros is where you should go! I visited with my friends and was impressed by their massive menu. The baked mostaccioli was cheesy and satisfying! The only negative was the wait time to receive our food—it took longer than anticipated. Despite the wait, I can see myself becoming a regular here because the flavor makes it worth the trip. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've recently become a fan of Yarusso Bros! The moment you enter, you feel the rich history and warmth that this family-run restaurant exudes. The ravioli I had was delectable, with rich flavors. While the service could improve during busy hours, the overall dining experience made it all worthwhile. I will surely keep coming back to discover more of their menu offerings. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem! Yarusso Bros is a delightful find for anyone who loves authentic Italian cuisine. Their menu is extensive and the portions are very generous! I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo and it was rich and creamy, but the server was a bit inattentive. I still thoroughly enjoyed my meal despite the service shortcomings. I look forward to returning and recommending it to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my experience here! The atmosphere is charming, evoking a true Italian feel—complete with old photos and warm lighting. I ordered the meatballs and was surprised by how large they were! The sauce was rich with a great balance of herbs. I wish there had been a bit more service attention, as it felt a little rushed during peak hours. But I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone seeking authentic Italian flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Yarusso Bros was delightful but not without its quirks. I loved the historical feel of the place, complete with framed photos of past patrons, which added to its charm. We ordered the lasagna, which was an enormous portion and quite filling. However, the flavor could have used a little more punch, as it felt a bit flat. The staff were friendly and accommodating, but I feel like they were overwhelmed by the amount of customers that night. Overall, a solid outing, but I hope to see a bit more consistency in flavor next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dinner at Yarusso Bros was a delightful experience. The pizza was a highlight—crispy, covered in fresh toppings just like I imagined it should be. The environment was warm and homey, perfect for a casual night out. I noted they have been around for some time, and it really shows in their consistent food quality. Although our server was friendly, they did forget one of my drinks, but overall, the food outweighed that minor hiccup. " (*Curated Review*)
