This is a real hidden gem. They don’t advertise a lot. The food is fantastic. Service is great. Try their prime rib. You’ll never go anywhere else. Fantastic food.

Went here for the first time in several years. Food was amazing! My wife had the penne pasta with olive oil and garlic and it was absolutely delicious. I had crab cakes with baked potato and french onion soup. The crab cakes were the best I have ever had. The baked potato was cooked to perfection and the French onion soup was to die for! Our daughter raved about the panko shrimp also. Others in the group that went with us all said the same thing the food was amazing. They even had a flatbread pagach because it was a Friday in Lent. Highly recommend this place. If you haven't been there in several months or longer by all means give them another shot because they are fantastic! Been here several times since the first visit. Always fantastic. Even had a dinner here with the Knights of Columbus. Biggest prime rib and lobster tails I've ever seen. And now they're open for lunch Wednesday through Friday from 11:00-200.

A true “old school” Italian restaurant with incredible food, friendly and knowledgeable staff, historic atmosphere, and reasonable prices. Don’t miss it if you’re coming through northeast PA!

Food was great and portion size was very large. Nice people. We had 6 people for small birthday. They assisted with cake and helped with cutting cake and extra plates. Prices were good

Awesome, awesome, awesome dinner. My go-to at Perugino's is the broiled seafood platter. Other's ordered the scallop special, chicken ala andy and chicken marsala. We arrived at 5pm and the place was empty. When we left at 6:30 the entire place was jumping. Glad we came early

Didn't know this place existed. Looked up local places to eat and it was close by. Tucked away at the end of Charles st. In Luzerne. Parking on the side and two doors up is a full parking lot. Nice interior. Clean, decorated nicely. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, talked with the owner for awhile. Was very well taken care of. No empty glasses or plates left forgotten. Found out they have a banquet hall that serves 80 or so. The restaurant is over 100 years old was family run until recently but they're using all original recipes and desserts are made in house. Food service was quick and very good. Large portions. I had the specials of the day, my husband had pasta with meatballs and we ended it with delicious creme brulee. The prices were very reasonable. We will be returning with the family.
