You're not truly living until you've drowned one in their magical boom boom sauce. And the salad bowls? They've somehow made me a believer that greens can be exciting. Seriously, it's the best salad on campus. Other stuff like their pho noodles are mehhhh. The vibe is solid -- decent indoor ambiance, plus outdoor seating for when you're feeling fancy. This place does get packed faster than a lecture hall on syllabus day. If you don't time it right, you might be left holding your burrito bowl like it's a newborn, desperately hunting for a seat. TL;DR: Come for the boom boom sauce, stay for the best eats on campus, and pray for non-awkward seats.

I topped it off with boom boom sauce and tangy bbq (the best combo). It was nice to see the same workers as last semester because they are all nice and always have a friendly smile on their face. The ambiance was a bit slow because of Thanksgiving break coming up, but it seemed like most people were enjoying their food. The pulled pork was a bit on the drier end and it overpowered the taste of the other ingredients, but overall I'm glad that I ordered it. Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5

I very much recommend them!

Not the best bread I've ever had but pretty good. Also got the patatas bravas which for me was my favorite dish. Super flavorful. We got two dishes the Spring cavatelli and the moosewood burger. The burger was really good but the pasta is where I could see why some people threw around the word bland. I don't want to say it was bad, it just was very light and didn't have a rich flavor like most pasta dishes. We got the matcha panna cotta to go which was also pretty good. Overall I think it just depends on the dish you get but I was fully expecting straight up bland food based on other reviews but that wasn't the case. The cavatelli could use a little work though. Overall it was nice.

We also tried the thai curry, burrata, peach salad. The peaches were not ripe, but the crunch was a nice textural component. Burrata and curry were fine. I wish the curry was spicier. I liked the thin ribbons of cucumber in the burrata dish though. Maybe I am being too harsh... I had rather high expectations coming into Moosewood, and the food wasn't bad per se, but nothing really wowed me. I would eat here again, but I wouldn't seek it out.

Pronto Craft Pizza & Artful Salads is a fairly new eatery in the Collegetown area of Ithaca -…read morehaving only opened back in October 2020. I haven't been in Collegetown for months and months due to COVID-19, but I've been trying to support restaurants and employees in Ithaca by ordering takeout and delivery... so Pronto seemed like a fun option to try. I ordered two pizzas - a White Mushroom Pizza (thin crust with added sausage), and a Cilantro Corn Pizza (which I *thought* I only noted to say "minimal jalapenos" in terms of customization... but apparently, I checked a box on the ordering system to say "No Corn & Jalapeños", which was my mistake... and I had to double-check my receipt to see what the issue was, because I was originally taken aback when opening the pizza box... but no, that issue was on me). I also ordered a Blackberry Goat Cheese Salad with added sunflower seeds and golden raisins (and ciabatta bread)... dressing on the side. Originally, my order was scheduled to be delivered at 12:19pm... but it actually was delivered ~40 minutes later at 1pm, and the pizza definitely seemed like it had been sitting around for a while or something, as both pizzas were very, very cold. The presentation for the white mushroom pizza wasn't great, as it came with just giant globs of ricotta on top and just generally didn't look great (it looked VERY dry, and had honestly little to no flavor at all)... I expected something much more thoughtfully put together. The cilantro and corn pizza itself isn't one I can really review, considering I messed up ordering that one. Both pizzas were smaller than expected. All in all, this was a fairly "meh" experience. I'm not holding my ordering mishap against Pronto, but the white mushroom pizza was pretty lacking (in flavor and presentation), delivery took longer than expected, and my food arrived very cold. I still want to order and support local around the Rochester / Ithaca / Syracuse areas... but with so many other restaurants deserving support, I don't expect to order from Pronto again in the near future.

With few sub…read moreshops in Ithaca and vastly different qualities, I decided to try DiBella's to avoid the only other open shops like Subway. I was pleasantly surprised with my experience! Coming in 20 minutes to closing (sorry about that again!), I was still met with friendly staff who helped me navigate the menu. I ordered two "$9.99 5" mini meals" which were actually great! I wanted to eat something light but filling for dinner, and this meal deal was perfect! The portion was just right. Additionally, the subs are super affordable and customizable without stupid upcharges. I ordered a veggie sub which was really delicious! I also have heard that their meat options are tasty! Do I think it lives up to their self-proclaimed slogan of "being the best sub sandwich you've ever had?" Not exactly. But I can say that the subs are pretty good and maybe the best SERVICE I've ever had at a sub shop, especially in Ithaca. This place is better than Subway, Jimmy John's, Firehouse Subs, and Panera. I genuinely enjoyed my meal and I'm sure the non-veg options are super delicious. Additionally, the restaurant was pretty clean and has good seating for lunch. Although I've never been here during busy times, the subs were made pretty quick! My only complaint is that the packaged pickle you can buy as a side order is very average. Not a good classic NY sour pickle, so I would avoid it and buy chips instead. Overall really happy with my food, and the friendliness I experienced from the team at DiBella's really drives me to recommend this place even more. They're also super attentive with food allergies and openly tell which ingredients may not align with your dietary restrictions. Shoutout to 2nd manager Dariyen (? Sorry if spelling is incorrect) for providing quality customer service and running closing shift with grace. I look forward to returning!

A couple of months ago I ordered online for a pick up. When I arrived at the predicted time the…read moresubs were not ready so I sat and waited. Then I waited some more. Then I walked up to the counter and asked the person making the subs how long it would take. I was informed one sub was made, but the second still needed to be completed and would be ready shortly. So I sat back down and waited some more. After another 15min another employee ringing up a walk-in customer realized I was waiting a looong time since I had been sitting there for almost 40min total. That person asked me what I ordered and immediately found it waiting behind the counter! It was never moved to the pickup shelf and was completely ignored. Once I got home I submitted feedback to DiBella's via their website. I was sent a coupon code for my next visit. I waited a week then decided to use the coupon to order on my phone app. Well, the coupon code would not work no matter what I tried. I used my laptop's browser to order with the same result, "coupon code not found." I then submitted feedback again to DiBella's on their website and to this day I have not heard anything back from them. I've decided to give up on them completely and tried to delete my account via the phone app and received the error message, "Route not found." This is the most amateur operation I've ever seen. I just want to say the employees of the Ithaca location are VERY nice and have been the best part of my experience with DiBella's. It just seems like once something goes wrong, the efforts to make things right just make it worse.
