Some of the best Italian food in the Reading area. Definitely scratch baked authentic food. Has indoor and outside seating but call in advance if you want to sit outside. read more

Ordered an Italian sandwich with oil. Informed the waitress that they sandwich had vinegar and oil. She insisted she told the kitchen oil only. Five minutes later she approached our table and said she checked and yes she wrote just oil. She mentioned the kitchen blamed her. She asked if I wanted her to make a new sandwich after I had already eaten almost half. I told her no I'd deal with it. I didn't finish more then half the sandwich she asked if I wanted to take it home. I said, no I didn't like it. The mozzarella sticks also had a weird taste like the oil was old however the French fries were good which doesn't make sense that they tasted good but mozzarella sticks did not. The most disturbing thing is that she still charged me for the sandwich knowing I ate less then half and didn't take it home. read more

Had a great time with visiting family from Chicago to celebrate my wife's birthday. Emilia, our waitress was fantastic. She made sure that everything was ok. The food was also very good. This is not the first time we have been here. So, when you make a reservation, sit down and enjoy. read more

We love this place. The food is good & So is the service. In Covid times it's nice to eat outside. Their blood orange margarita is especially yummy. read more

We love Juliana's, the owner, and the staff. When we arrived, we were greeted by Charice who was friendly and happy to seat us without a reservation. The service was top-notch with Aileen as our server. Super attentive to our needs and pleasant with a big smile...which made us all smile. The owner brought a complimentary appetizer to highlight an upcoming special...The Palermo. It was delicious. The serving sizes were exceptional! The food was delicious! We love their red sauce! You cannot go wrong with the Eggplant Rollitini. A great night out with the family! read more

First time there and definitely will be back. Chicken parm with vodka sauce was amazing and had great service as well.

Great good and service. The owner was so kind. Lasagna was excellent. Beautiful restaurant. My wife enjoyed her linguine in white claim sauce. read more

Meal was delicious even if it wasn't what I ordered. On the main menu was pesto salmon with rosemary potatoes and asparagus. That is what I ordered. On the special menu was blackened salmon with pesto pasta. I didn't know that. When the waitress came back and asked if I wanted the salmon blackened, I said no. After she left I said to my son, that I didn't know why she asked me that question? When I got my meal I found out why. They gave me the special, not what was on the main menu. I didn't want to wait for them to correct it so I ate it. It was delicious! A simple mistake will not keep me from going there again. read more

I had heard such great things about Juliana's from friends & family so we decided have dinner there. Sad to say we were very disappointed with the food. I had the carbonara & the pancetta was all fatty & soggy. I picked all the pancetta out & it still wasn't good. My husband had the Lobster Ravioli with shrimp & the ravioli were very "fishy". The only reason I'm not giving it 1 star is because our waitress Leah provided excellent service & my espresso martini was yummy! read more

Waitress not very friendly. Had an issue and messaged restaurant and manager or owner was beyond rude. Wouldn't tell me if it was the owner or manager but certainly has lost this customer. Food is good. But customer service is very important. I hate when a restaurant has good food and thinks they can treat ppl like crap. Plenty of other restaurants out there. read more

Pizza and Stromboli are well made with quality. However the red sauce is way too sweet. It's all you notice after a while. If I were them I would offer that as optional sauce but not as the default red sauce. read more

We love Juliana's . Delicious food . Service has been very good, too. I am Italian and love the grilled calamari. Even the pizza is so good. We also love the cannoli! read more

Stopped in to Juliana's for pizza. We were met with great service from Jamie. We got a new Sicilian pizza they offer with FRESH mozzarella. We also got a Large Pizza. You won't find better pizza anywhere! read more

I wish I took a picture. Ordered a chicken cheesesteak and expected chicken chopped with cheese mixed on a roll. Got a version of someone's take on it. It was breaded fried chicken chopped and layered on top of the cheese layered bun. It tasted chalky and dry. Very very disappointed read more

I don't know what rude person you have answering the phone when I tried it to make a reservation but I will never ever set foot I. Your restaurant after being treated the way that gentleman did..... he should be fired on the spot..... especially during these times where a restaurant is hurting for business I would think the staff would appreciate the business which gives them a job..... good luck with making it read more

Juliana's was a big disappointment. I ordered an arugula salad with chicken. I was served a mixed green salad instead of arugula. When I inquired about my order, I was brusquely told they were out of arugula...period! No more questions. Also, I ordered two cocktails on the rocks. When my check arrived, I was charged $4.00 for rocks (ice). The manager ungraciously said "don't you know every restaurant charges for rocks?" Well sir, I have been in restaurants all over the world and NEVER been charged for ice in a drink. In my opinion, ill-mannered, impudent people should not be employed by a service industry. I shall not return. This is the first time have written a complaint. Miserable experience. read more

Went there for my Birthday with my family (about 18 of us in total). This is the second time we have gone to this restaurant. The first time for my last birthday. I do realize we were a larger party but we were there for almost 3 hours and did not order any dessert. Food was very good but it took forever to arrive and the waitress was slow. My Son and Daughter wanted a little extra sauce for their pasta dishes and after over 15 minutes we flagged down the waitress and was told that the sauce was made fresh and she put a ticket in but there were tickets ahead of ours so they just told her to cancel the order. My biggest issue was that we were charged more for our food than what the menu states. We were told that they are working on changing their menu's and upon thinking about it I realized they did and said the same thing last year when we went. I believe a year is enough time to get new menus. The food is the only reason I am giving 3 stars. Will probably never go back. It's a shame because we did enjoy the food. read more

Not the best I've ever had. Salad was ? Not much, and the bread wasn't my cup of tea. Entrees were good though.

Food is always fresh and tastes homemade. Love their selection of different pastas. I enjoy the penne pizza since not a lot of places in the area have that type. Also try the cannolis! read more

Our first experience at Julian's was outstanding; both the food and the service. Our server was very friendly and attentive and did a great job at describing the food and guiding everyone all four of us to something we enjoyed. I had the Chicken Parmesan Vodka Sauce, and it was so delicious that I cannot wait to get back and have it again! The other meals at the table were also thoroughly enjoyed. read more

Just moved around the corner from Juliana's. My first visit I was blown away with my meal. However, I wanted to come back a second time to see if it would be as good before I left a review. I have to say my second visit was equally as amazing as my first. Going with a small group for both dinner and their Sunday brunch I was able to try a number of things off the menu and the bottom line is the food is on point. Not only was everything we had really fresh, the quality and taste of the food is outstanding. 100% have to go and see for yourself. I recommend, their homemade pasta dishes, the grandmas pizza is ridiculous with just the right amount of garlic and the sauce was perfect. For brunch the poached eggs in marinara is something I wish I could have every morning and not something I've seen before. I wish I would have taken more pics to share but will add next time I go. read more

This is the best pizza ever. It has only gotten better in the last month as well! I feel like since I've started going to julianas in December, the pizza has taken a tremendous step forward in the last 1-2 months.. MUST TRY. For all the other pizza spots in the area... from Mamas, paolos, Anthony coal fire pizza, Bella's, and all the other places... this pizza is by far the best. As for the entrees, you cannot go wrong with a single item on the menu. Absolutely outstanding food. Whoever is cooking these delicious dishes, needs a raise! read more

Great grandma style pizza. Happy that they replaced the old pizza place that was here. 1000x's better!

We came without a reservation on a Saturday night and the place was packed, with good reasons. The pizza was thin and tasty like we are used to being from New York and the service was friendly. We also had a pasta, an order of asparagus and the calamari starter. Everything tasted very good but there was far too much food for a party of three. We expected to take home some Leftovers but not an additional three meals worth. They could have served 1/3 of the portions and it still would have matched the price point. I think in this day and age of overconsumption and food waste, I wish restaurants would take the lead on correcting the public's misconception that more is better. read more

The absolute best homemade Italian food in Berks county!! A must visit or enjoy take put. Wonderful and friendly staff.

I went to Julianna's last night because I had heard really great things about the food there , my boyfriend made a 6 pm reservation for my birthday dinner, we showed up at 6 got our table , ordered our drinks, appetizer and entrees right away. We then waited about 35 min for our appetizer which was really good, but then sat at our table for another hour being ignored until we finally asked our waiter how long till our food would be ready, we were told 5 - 10 min when another 20 min went by we asked for a manager and that's when our experience went from bad to way worse! The manager came out first off wearing a dirty apron and a bad attitude, we simply just told him how long we had been waiting and wanted to know what was going on especially since people that we had walked in with were already done with their desserts and some had even left and we had not had our entrees yet ? Let me just add that I have worked in the industry for over a decade and I fully understand that things happen and that kitchens get backed up especially on a Saturday night at dinner time BUT instead of him simply saying that he is sorry and would go get our food he proceeded to argue with us and point out that we are not at McDonald's and that it is perfectly acceptable for us to be waiting that long for our food! At that point we were shocked that he was arguing back and forth with us at our table and the minute he didn't like what we had to say ( which was nothing inappropriate we were just not backing down from him ) he made us get up and leave without our dinner! I have never in my life written anything on yelp b/c of the fact that I have worked in the food industry , so the fact that I am on here writing this really means that my experience there was that bad! You can have the best food in berks county but when your service sucks and management thinks it's okay to insult and treat their customers like we were treated last night that can ruin any restaurant . read more

My high school son just went there to meet his friend for his birthday. As children they are all paying for themselves and asked for separate checks, there was approximately 8 17-18 year olds, and they were told they refuse to do separate checks. My son showed up home and said that they were not able to celebrate his birthday because of this policy. As a teenager I always did separate checks with my friends at multiple establishments with no problems. Myself and anyone I speak with, being an electrician, will make sure that I will tell everyone how mistreated my son and is friends were this evening. read more

Ordered take out on a Friday night for the first time. Barely understood the person on the phone who placed me on hold numerous times mid-sentence. Ordered cheese pizza, Hawaiian pizza, wings, mozzarella sticks, and Risotto. Food was ready when we got there. Mozz sticks were normal. The pizza has a good flavor but the dough/crust tasted like pre-made pizza shells. Wings were cooked well and flavor was just ok but we didn't get any carrots/celery or any blue cheese/ranch. The risotto was slightly overcooked but had an amazing flavor once I picked out the forest of rosemary. I'm not really sure why that would be in it I'm the first place. Bottom line: I would order take out again and try something different but it definitely wasn't worth the $60 bill read more

Unprofessional owners, management, and staff. When they first opened we tried a pizza. It was not very good. It was edible, but had canned olives thrown over one side. I left a review of Facebook since there was no yelp listing at the time. The owner, his son, and their friends repeatedly harassed me on Facebook for leaving a 2 star review. It got to be so bad that my spouse called and told them to stop harassing me. The harassment continued so I contacted the south Heidelberg police. The police paid the owner a visit and told them to stop. I deleted my review because of the harassment. We will never go back to this creepy place ever again. If you own a restaurant and you can't take a review that is fair and honest you don't belong in the service industry. Harassing customers and going one step even further by have your employees and friends do this is inappropriate. How can any customer ever be sure that these people won't steal their credit card numbers or put something bad or poisonous in their food? Look at the other 1 star review and you'll see how the business owner Frank L called the customer a drug addict. See photo. read more

I had a terrible experience with the service, the OWNER was yelling at us just because the service was slow and we were simply questioning why. After leaving, the owner then proceeded to yell and say we were rude would not recommend :( read more

Excellent choice for homemade locally Italian meal. Beats out other Italian family spots. Definitely will continue to order take out or eat in ! read more

Amazing service! Amazing staff! 100% 10/10 the food is insane and don't get me started about the pizza

Uggh. We ordered a pizza. Should be pretty simple except that it was very sloppy. The toppings were not fresh. The crust and tomatoes seemed fine. Will not go back. Too many other pizza places in Berks county that are much better than this place. Also, there was a extra charge for using a credit card and the pizza was over $20. read more

We always try to give this place a chance! I'm only giving them 1 star because I can't give them less; they always fuck up our food! They called my boyfriend a B*** because we complain. What restaurant does that! We have no respect for you and your family. Frank (the owner) we will never be back! And we will tell everyone about our experience here. read more

Today was about the 3rd time they screwed up our take out order. we ordered loaded fries and a cheese steak no onions with sauce on the side. What we got was loaded fries A cheese steak with TarterSauce on top of it . I called and asked to talk to the manager and then asked to talk to the owner. Alex said I am the manager and owner. I got no apology, just , I'll make you another one ,when we got there to show him , his response was I don't know what that is. . Well what ever it was doesn't belong on a cheese steak ... we declined To have another one made. Got our money back.. $12.00 for a cheese steak .. we went to Paradise By The Slice got a Cheese steak and 2 bags of chips for $11.00 ... It was delicious.... Will be a long time before I go back.. If I do. .... Cindy M. read more

Environment is a five star, but food is a two star. Pizza isn't to bad, but the chicken parmigiana is just above dinner quality along with the lasagna read more

We went in for a nice family dinner. We were seated right away and our order was taken. Simple order Spaghetti with meatball, ziti, and risotto. We watched people (3 tables) come in behind us get there food and leave and our food had yet to come out. We asked about it, they said they were behind in the kitchen. That didn't make sense since we were seeing people come and go. Once our food arrived it was terrible. The sauce tasted like it was burnt (like it was scraped from the bottom of the pot). All my friends rave about this place. I was so disappointed. It will be a long time to go back. If we ever go back. read more

A special thank you to our server, Emilia! She was wonderful-made celebrating my 70th birthday with family and friends very special. We can always count on outstanding food at Juliana's. Never disappointed. The mussels were great! read more

I want to like this place so much. We ordered our food at 6:10. Ordered an appetizer and 2 entrees'. Got our salads that came with our entrees pretty quick. Waited a while and saw all the other guests that ordered at the exact same time we did get their food. The table right next to yours for their food, got boxes and got their check and we still didn't get our appetizer yet. We asked about it and the bartender said he actually never put it in the computer. Ok. So we waited about 15 mins and still no food. So we got the bartenders attention and said we were leaving. Didn't even try to justify it. No manager came over. He just said sorry and left us leave. We waited over an hour and no food. Left hungry and disappointed. read more

Ok, I read a bunch of reviews before going to this place so before I get to the food I just want to make a quick comment. It seems this place has some real customer service issues. Some of the reviews I read are pretty bad regarding treatment of customers and Juliana's responses or should I say, lack of responses to customer complaints. Honestly, that is scary and I hope they take it seriously and address as there are a lot of low scores here. So now onto the food. I ordered take out and it was ready when I showed up so it was a good start. I ordered a large pepperoni pizza and mild wings to go. The pizza was pretty good. It has a light distinct taste to it. The wings were average. They were not bad but they didn't blow me away. All in all I would say my experience so far was good but I really want to test the waters with a sit down dinner which I plan on doing. read more
