This is a great neighborhood pub. We enjoyed a delicious burger on 2/2/24 and the fresh cut fries are amazing. Heather did a great job taking care of us and the folks in the kitchen put out a great tasty product. We enjoyed the company and the music. We can't wait to go back! Great job Villa Valenti Pub
Here is an update to my review of a few years ago. My wife and I have returned at least a handful of times and it was one of the only locations in town to have the NFL ticket last year. While the men's room is still overly small and gross, the nonsensical behavior we witnessed within my first review has not been observed again. The menu never really changed and as long as the items were prepared consistently we knew what we were getting into. Service has been very good and that is with some changes behind the bar and on the floor. Is it still loud? Yeah it can be and probably still isn't a great venue for families with kids. If you do go and it seems busy you might want to ask your server how things are moving in the kitchen... we visited about a month ago and were unaware of like a million pizzas going out for some Troy or NG Police event - that night the wait was excessive but they did make it right by comping a bunch of drinks. Know your crowd, it's mostly regulars and college kids. I still believe Valenti's has the only pool table in the area.
First off, great old school place with the family atmosphere vibe! We arrived and we were promptly seated and the server came right over with a great smile. We had the hankering for some pizza so we ordered a large pepperoni and sausage, well done and extra thin. WOW! They nailed it! I wish I lived in the area because I'd be back once a week to get this za again! Highly recommend!
What an awesome place! Spent some time visiting family over the past week and stumbled upon this gem. Great pub with delicious food - try the wings for sure. The owners went out of their way to talk to us and welcome us - really nice, seems like they are breathing new life into a classic neighborhood pub. Highly recommend stopping in for dinner or a cold beer - we will be back for sure !
It's been a long while since I've been here, but I heard there was new ownership, so I thought we'd try again. Glad we did! The pizza is phenomenal and we got a chance to meet the new owner and he was great. The food in general just seemed really fresh. We'll definitely add this into the normal rotation.
It's a bar with a full service kitchen. The portions are huge, and good Italian faire. The atmosphere is very cool: typical bar scene with nice lighting, pool table, jukebox, football games on TV. Wish it were in my neighborhood.
