" Luigetta's is a must-visit if you're in Altoona! The sandwiches are hearty, and the salad is without a doubt the highlight. I learned about this gem from a friend a while back and was hooked after my first visit. The service has always been splendid, with staff members who seem genuinely glad to be there. I sometimes wish they'd give the place a facelift, but honestly, it feels cozy and welcoming as is. Thank you for keeping this establishment alive and for the memories that come with it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Oh my goodness, the salad dressing is out of this world! I can honestly say I’ve never tasted anything quite like it. Their hoagie sandwiches are tasty, but for me, the real star is the side salad that comes first. It’s worth every penny! The staff is warm and friendly, and though the restaurant itself is a bit worn around the edges, it adds to its old-school charm. Do yourself a favor and grab a meal here when you can! You're in for a real treat if you're looking for local favorites! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was on the hunt for a truly authentic Italian eatery, and Luigetta’s did not disappoint! The flavors are rich and remind me of my grandmother's cooking. The house salad dressing is an experience in itself, and it elevates any meal. However, my only criticism would be regarding the seating—there’s not much room, which can make dining there feel rushed at times. Still, it’s worth the visit and I plan on returning for more deliciousness soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Luigetta’s was one of my favorite places as a kid! I still remember my first hoagie there, and it was just magical. Fast forward to today, and the place still offers that same homely vibe. But let’s be honest—the prices have gone up a bit, and I feel like the portions have shrunk since I was last here. The staff is friendly, but it does seem to get quite rushed during busy lunch hours. Still, I will always have fond memories of this local gem. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I don’t understand what the fuss is about Luigetta's. I decided to check it out based on all the positive reviews, but my experience did not match. The place is cramped, and the atmosphere leaves a lot to be desired. It feels outdated. While the staff were friendly, my sub was bland and lacked flavor. I suggest steering clear unless you're willing to gamble, as not all dishes hit the mark. I might try again and order something different, but I won’t be in a rush to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" First-timer here, and I was impressed with the food! The salad with the house dressing was divine, and the portions were generous. I had a cheesesteak and the meat was fresh and well seasoned. The atmosphere reminded me of a hometown diner. I could see why so many locals adore this place. However, I’d love to see a bit more care in the ambiance. It feels a tad too cramped. Overall, a great experience, and I can absolutely see myself returning whenever I'm in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a family, we love Luigetta’s, the kids adore the hoagies! They have this awesome relaxed vibe that makes it an ideal spot for quick meals. The dressing on the salads is a must-try for anyone who hasn't had it yet! It’s rich and flavorful, unlike any other. There’s a slight wait sometimes, but given the quality of food, it’s worth it and I've never gotten anything that tasted bad. We shall return time and again! " (*Curated Review*)
