Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza
Abigail g.

Another great pizza! Delivery was quick and everyone was super friendly. This quality is what I expect when I order a jersey shore pizza.

Shrimp fra diavolo
Glenn S.

Updating my review as the quality has improved and if you order before 3:00 it's the best bargain for miles around. We ordered 5 meals and an appetizer for $43 and 7 people couldn't even finish half of it! So in a pinch with most business closed on the island we decided to order delivery from here and based on the reviews we expected some good Italian food. However, was not what we expected. Pasta was severely overcooked and all the dishes were swimming in oil. The eggplant parm was mushy and falling apart, the Alfredo didn't have much flavor and was soaked in oil. The shrimp fra diavolo was also swimming in oil but had a nice spicy flavor and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. The garlic knots were excellent. Overall if the pasta hadn't been so overcooked and the food wasn't saturated in oil I would give them 3 stars. The portion sizes were also generous. However, I doubt we will order from here again.

Tortellini la Carlo
Lilly B.

This is a great little spot run by a nice family! The menu online was different price wise compared to when I picked it up. But a few dollars was worth it for how delicious everything was! The tortellini was rich and creamy. It came with a house salad and homemade Italian dressing and the most amazing garlic knots!

Chicken Parm sub Fra Diavolo Sauce

I have ordered from here multiple times over the years. Never disappoints. Always give you enough food for 2 to 3 meals. But it's not just the quantity it tastes amazing. 2 entrees that come with salads and garlic knots and an order of rice balls (4) for $52 delivered. It's surprising when most places are gouging the consumer at this time. Look forward to many more orders.

Was also a part of the 50 person family reunion. Not only did they accommodate on such short notice, but the food was absolutely delicious! They also delivered, which was so convenient. Thanks so much Italian Kitchen for making our family reunion perfect!

Where do I start??? I rely on my fellow Yelpers and you did not lead me astray! I wanted a lunch because we will be going on a boat cruise later. I was in search of Italian. I read the stellar reviews and gave this place a try and boy was I thrilled I did! I'm a Yelper who loves a great value and delicious food. I ordered the meat lasagna special at the counter and the lady rang us up and also brought our food to us. They have about 10 or more tables but no waitress service. Works for me. Lasagna with meat sauce was . . . TO. DIE. FOR. Keep in mind I seldom order Italian food because it's usually pretty ordinary. The deep red sauce was quite buxom and hearty. Totally had to be homemade. There were chunks of delicious tomato and cheese in the sauce. Our lasagna was hot from the oven served in a round tin on a lovely generous bed of sauce. So flavorful. Better than my own homemade and that's saying something! Along with the lasagna was served a garlic roll. It was served in a small paper foil packet double wrapped. . . No no this isn't any garlic roll, it's sliced up bread, thick and bathed in a sea of butter, garlic, parsley and cheese! Hot damn!! I was speechless!! I asked for a spoon to be able to scoop up the sauce. Guess what?! I didn't need it. I used the nuggets of garlic bread as an edible spoon. Our meals were only 5.95 at lunch. It's a special from 11-3. At the seashore?! That's beyond reasonable. The owners are very friendly as well. As far as ambiance the place is old, but it has character and if you're there for the food- it's BANGIN!!! We couldn't resist the creative cannoli flavors. I got the "classic" and momma bear got the cookies n cream. We split them and they were incredible! I'm starting to change my mind about Wildwood too! That's a good thing!

Chicken fettuccine Alfredo lunch special
Jenn C.

If you're looking for huge lunch portions at affordable prices, go here! They have delicious pasta options for their $6.49 lunch special and it's served with their homemade garlic rolls (which are delicious!!!) The portions are so large, I've eaten half for lunch and saved half for dinner... I've also split one with my child. Even my son, who eats a lot, could not finish the Crab Marinara over linguine. They offer delivery, but I have only ever done the take-out/pick up option. My food has never taken more than 15 minutes, even in the Summer! Updated: we are still going here years later! Lunch special is now $7 (after tax) but honestly so much food it will last you two meals or feed two people!

Shrimp and crab dinner with linguine in blush sauce

WOW- Tonight we ordered Italian Kitchen Express around 8:30pm. We are so impressed all around! The counter staff assisting were so friendly and helpful! The food itself has blown us away! Very flavorful! The quality, price, & quantity was a great surprise too. We are first time customers and will definitely be back! Thank you for giving us a great dinner while on vacation!! 10/10 (Not pictured is eggplant parm which was also amazing)

my friends and I purchased food at this restaurant earlier today, we ordered the mozzarella stick, fettuccine shrimp Alfredo, and penne sausage Alfredo. it was absolutely amazing!

Alfredo
Mike G.

I was looking forward to having a nice Italian meal ordered the Alfredo with broccoli will never go back again food was bland, garlic knots had no garlic on them. Probably a big mistake on passing up ravioli house

Pepperoni pie
Lisa G.

I was so excited to try the food here based on the reviews I read. We come down from north Jersey every Memorial Day weekend and usually need one night of quick meals. We ordered two pies (one pepperoni and one 1/2 bacon). We also got wings. Delivery was timely and driver was friendly. The wings were pretty good. The pizza was disgusting. It was heavy, soggy pizza made with terrible quality cheese. Pizza cheese should have some consistency, chewiness and flavor to it. This cheese was smooth, gooey and bland. Of the 5 of us in my family, there wasn't one of us that liked it. Based on the reviews and the wings, it's likely we'll try them again another time for other meals, but definitely not for the pizza.

Never again! I…read moreshould have been tipped off to what fortune awaited us when there was not one other customer in the place at twelve noon, on a Saturday, in the summer. Ordered a dozen garlic Parmesan wings, two personal "pizzas", one regular & the other white. Let's start with the wings. Absolutely no flavor, which will be a recurring theme. All they did was sprinkle Parmesan cheese on the wings. To be fair, they were crispy, but again, the breading tasted like cooking oil. Drowning the wing in ranch dressing was the only way to make it palatable. Twenty five minutes later the "pizzas" arrived. The white pie was barely edible. Literally just burnt mozzarella cheese on a thin, hard, favor-less crust. Maybe the garlic & spice delivery truck didn't come this week? Their regular pie definitely was an improvement over the white, but nothing to write home about. No joke, you can make a better tasting pizza at home using only three items from Costco...stone flat bread, mozzarella cheese, & Mama Rao's sauce. I will acknowledge that the place was clean & the young lady working the counter was attentive. They also do have free refills on fountain drinks, so there's that. Overall, the fact that this place is a franchise boggles my mind. Like, how to did someone get hoodwinked into thinking this was a wise long term investment opportunity? I wish this place luck, but let's be honest, it won't be here the next time I am in Wildwood.

I went here for lunch at the Rio Grande location and the pizza was ok. The crust was great but the…read morerest was just ok. I will have to try other slices to see if it can get better
