Excellent dinner as usual. Waitstaff were very pleasant. Love going there for dinner.

The gnocchi here is delicious! Didn't try dessert but it looked so good - will get next time! The atmosphere was quite small and congested. We were seated next to the door, so we got cold from the incoming air. read more

The food is always amazing and comes out quickly and fresh! There may be a wait sometimes, but has never been very long for us. Only downside, the past 2 time we have been there, we arrived around 7:30 and had the same young waitress. She made us feel rushed and unwelcomed, probably because she wanted to leave and go out on the Friday night. I understand that its a Friday night, but she is a waitress at a desirable restaurant... If we walk in and are seated at her table again, we will certainly asked to be moved. The food is wonderful, but the waitress we have had ruined our recent experiences. For this reason, we enjoy getting take-out often times. Their pizza is the best in this area- definitely worth the extra couple of dollars. read more

It's definitely a hidden gem it's a little small ( the best places are ) it's around $20 a person but well worth it

Never a bad experience. We go for lunch all the time for work. The lunch special is great food for an awesome price!

My wife and love this place because it's close to home. More importantly the food is delicious and the portions are perfect. We bring all of our out of town guests here for dinner. read more

My fiance and I, along with my parents, visited the Blue Bell location for the first time over the weekend. The service was excellent and the food came out fairly quickly after placing our orders. I had the gnocchi, which was light and pillowy; the sauce was creamy without being heavy. My fiance had the lasagna, which came out bubbling from the oven; his only criticism was that it lacked flavor and had wished for more oregano, basil, etc. I tried a bit of my mother's shrimp scampi, and it was garlicky and delicious and my father devoured his chicken parm, saying it was excellent. All in all, this is a great small Italian spot, that serves up some classic eats. BYOB. Definitely recommend for a nice evening out if you are looking for some Italian comfort food! They have a pizza oven as well, but I can't comment on how the pizza is. We'll have to go back to try it out! read more

From what I've been reading, I wonder if these other reviewers ate at the same restaurant I did. I follow an age-old tip when trying out Italian restaurants. Just order a plain old plate of spaghetti and meatballs. If they can do that right, then the other entrees are worth a shot. Well... the spaghetti was horrible. Pasta was over cooked and the sauce was far too sugary. The meatballs were more breading and binder than meat. My wife ordered the eggplant parm. Again, the sauce was too sweet, and the eggplant itself was over cooked and under seasoned. The garlic knots that everyone raves about can be done better at home with a tube of Pilsbury dough. Save your money, folks. I'd honestly rather eat at Olive Garden... and I hate Olive Garden. read more

I spoke with the owner of From the Boot who was super helpful and quickly remedied the situation. Thank you!

Always a solid choice. I haven't eaten anything I didn't enjoy. The pizzas are great, so are the sandwiches. I almost always get the chicken piccata. My only issue would be that they should give you more potatoes on the side, it's always too little. Otherwise I enjoy and recommend. read more

While I regularly ride by the strip mall where From The Boot is, I had never visited as I thought it was another 'pizza/sandwich' joint. But one Saturday, after visiting the Paperback Trader (another great place!!) next door, my friend and I decided to jump in, grab a slice and go. WELL...this place was AMAZING. Cute decor with wood burning stove, lowered lighting - just a warm, cozy feeling that wiped away our rush-rush, 'get it done' task list. We sat and chatted and ATE. We ordered from the lunch menu and had a hard time deciding. Friend had a generously sized Caesar salad and I had the pasta fagioli, which was delicious with bow tie pasta, cannelloni beans, nice little chunks of tomato...yum!! We both ordered the cheese ravioli - you could taste the freshness, tender hand made ravioli. The waitress was pleasant, attentive to refilling our drinks and checking on our satisfaction with friendly chit chat added points to the visit. One note - it's BYOB, so plan on bringing your favorite bottle of wine with you. To sum it up, to walk in expecting a re-warmed pizza slice and walking out an hour later after savoring good food with a good friend - and a bill that was under $25...awesome! Don't be fooled by the strip mall, bland visual - get yourself there soon! Oh, yeah - one more thing - as I was craving another taste of awesomeness, the family decided to show up at 5 on another Saturday and the place was PACKED. Didn't have the time to wait that day and my taste buds are still craving some Italian goodness From The Boot. read more

I wanted to update my old review. From the Boot has expanded into the storefront next door and doubled their capacity. Wait times are no longer an issue and the food is still great! read more

Dinner with husband and teenage son on a Thursday night. Not too busy when we arrived but people were waiting for a table when we left. We had he Gnocchi in Vodka Sauce, Lobster Ravioli and Fettucine Alfredo with salads and an appetizer. We enjoyed everything and will return. Would give 4.5 stars if able. The atmosphere is somewhat casual. read more

We heard about From the Boot from a friend who raved about it. We have been to the Ambler location, but we love this location in Blue Bell even more! You can't beat the BYOB, small plates, mussels and entrees. We go out of our way to dine here! We would recommend this to everyone looking for a good Italian meal in a family type setting. read more

Have eaten at numerous "upscale" Italian restaurants. Good can't begin to compare to this place. Absolutely first rate. Service excellent not bothersome, decor needs an update but otherwise absolutely fantastic. read more

I would have given this 5 stars, but just learned that the owner is no longer willing to make the 16" take out pizzas, "because of quality assurance". We have never had any quality issues with our 16" carry out pizza. We have been doing take out from another well known Pizza Place in Blue Bell for decades and we love the option of 2 different types of pizza for take out, but no longer. So sad to hear this! It would be more than double the price now...bye bye read more

Came here for dinner with my parents. Parents moved to Blue Bell from Hoboken. Waitress was very nice and friendly, I believe her name was Amanda. Had the Shrimp Parm which was fantastic. Shrimp tasted fresh and it was a big size portion. Dad had Chicken Scarpiella which he said was amazing. Big portion as well. Mom had the Veal Francese which she said was the best veal she has ever eaten. Decor was very nice and it was not to pricey. Seemed fair for the portions and the taste of the food. Service was very fast and the food came out quickly. I would recommend this place to anyone in this area. read more

Amazing. One of the best italian places I've ever been too. Doesn't look like much driving by but If you give it a shot you will not be disappointed! Highly highly recommend! read more

Slow service...Unless they know you, you're not that important. Food is decent but the arrogance of the service will keep me from going back. read more

Not sure what is going on but all three locations separated. All were consistent in quality and service although Ambler was our favorite. Three visits to the Blue Bell location in past several months have shown these qualities have slipped. Very slow service and inattentive service. The pasta soup is nothing like Ambler, the pizza, undercooked and flimsy and a hoagie with the first bite having large portions of lettuce and tomatoes spill from the sandwich with the meat spilling out the back of the roll with the first bite. Guys, shred the lettuce cut the tomato's and onions and put a sufficient portion of oil and mayo to give it taste. Three other people in restaurant yesterday but server provided me with a ceasar salad instead of ordered house. Management should weigh in with any thoughts. read more

The food is terrific but I wish that they would take reservations. They make delightful gnocchi and the service is fantastic. Bolognese sauce is beautifully made and each time we visit everyone has been pleased. read more

Went on Friday night for the first time. They don't take reservations but the wait wasn't too bad (probably 20 mins). The restaurant is very small - maybe 12 tables - and there is a busy take out area by the door, but the atmosphere was fine. The service was good; staff seemed knowledgable and had the right mix of attention without overdoing it. At our table we had pizza, sandwiches, chicken parm, fettuccine alfredo, and a seafood special. Everyone loved their meal. We stayed at our table for almost 2 hours talking and no one pushed us out, which was great! read more

The rolls were good. For the price they charge for a meat sauce on a bowl of spaghetti, should be A+. Unfortunately, it is obvious they use the cheapest ground meat in their Meat/Bolognese sauce. What a pricey place for cheap food (but they charge premium prices), no ambiance, no liquor license, so-so service. Never going back. read more

We really like this place. The food really hits the spot when we're in the mood for Italian. The brick oven pizza is delicious. And it's BYOB which is a major bonus! read more

my family love the food here. but have to go early to avoid the wait. it's kid friendly so we can take our toddler girls. love the garlic rolls and calamari. never had room for their home made desserts. but one of those days I will save room to try their desserts. read more

Great authentic Italian food. Our goto spot when we don't want to take chance on a bad meal..

Am so upset to hear they are not making the 16 in pizza . It was so good don't understand since they have that big brink oven . If the still make small ones y can't they make large ones make no sense guess well have to find another place . Shame on u.... read more

Looking for a good BYOB? Then look no further! My husband and I stop in every few weeks and I haven't had a bad meal yet.. Chicken parm is delicious.. And the pizza is great too! read more

Quality food and nice stuff! I have ordered pasta and salad and it was very good!Recommend!

Never got to taste the food. We had a party of 6 and waited for 2 hours for a table. Once we got seated, the service was horrible and slow, so we walked out. Very disappointed and a waste of time. read more

The food here is great and the rolls are to die for. The entrees are all very big servings, and there is more than enough to take home. Also, it's BYOB, so you can have a great meal here and still stay within a reasonable budget. The one downside is the restaurant itself - it's in a strip mall, and the inside is a little crowded. I met friends for dinner around 7pm on a Friday evening, and despite the great food and drinks, it was just an OK dinner since there was a family sitting almost on top of us with a bunch of screaming kids. It would be nicer if the tables were farther away from each other, or at least positioned differently. This is still a great place to go, however. read more

We've been to this BYOB several times. The food is outstanding but service is slow!! We had Nia this evening and we were there for almost 2 hours! If she would have taken the time to come to our table with some kind of update on when our food would be done, I would have been happy, but that never happened!! If I do come back, I will make sure we do not her again! read more

Had been going to this chain for years, something happen. Portions got smaller, not a friendly, shame, really liked this group.

Our first time there was Thursday evening...a great place and awesome food. Fresh and tasty ! It was worth the 25 minute wait. It is small and most nights I am told there is a wait. They also have carry out and it is a BYOB establishment. My boyfriend and I became instant fans. It small but quaint. We will be back ! read more

The decor isn't particularly fancy in From The Boot but it's warm and the food is tasty. My husband and I ate here last night which was our third time at the restaurant. We like the BYOB aspect since it reduces our bill and we love the tasty food. We are always started off with complimentary garlic rolls which is a great beginning. Last night my husband chose the Chicken Florentino and I choose the Steak and Pepper pasta dish. The flavors were awesome but there were a couple things we were disappointed in. The menu states the Steak and Pepper dish has asparagus in it. While this is true, we were unimpressed that this meant that snippets (1/2" long pieces) of asparagus stems were in the dish--no spears. Additionally, the sauce in both of our dishes but especially the Steak & Pepper meal was very thin. I had already eaten my rolls so I had to ask for a spoon to finish the sauce since there was no way it would stick to the pasta. The wait staff at From The Boot was very attentive and that was nice but we wish they would slow down on trying to clear away our dirty dishes . . . . several times there was still food on the plate or we had just taken the last bite and hadn't even had time to set down the fork before someone was looking to take our dishes. This left us feeling a bit frustrated. read more
