Great service, ordered 3 different pizzas, every one came out exactly as ordered. Young lady working was very knowledgeable, & attentive. One of the best tavern style pepperoni pizza around! Always look forward to to eating here. Till next time keep up the great work! read more

Stopped while on a road trip for pizza. Was hoping they had gluten free to my surprise the did and it was incredible. This was one of the best gluten free pizzas I have ever had. I'm not sure if it was lightly basted in butter, but however they seasoned it, was awesome! I'm sad they are far from my hometown if you're thinking of stopping, don't hesitate. My non gf family members loved the non-gf pizza too. read more

Vinatellis Italian Cafe - Italian Near Me - Markle, Indiana

Sorry to say, in the last year Vinatelli's has plummeted. We were at the antique mall and stopped for lunch again. We were seated quickly, but sadly no one came to the table to take our order or even give us water. The dining room had a few other guests, and it seemed they were not waited on either. All of this is sad, and I wish them well. But restaurants have to at least make guests feel welcome. We left and nobody noticed. read more

Excellent service. Pizza was not bad with a nice crust. Chicken wings and chicken parm were really disappointing

Good food, nice atmosphere and our waitress was fabulous. Would definitely return when in the area

First time here. The food is really good. Great pizza. The waitress was very nice, but she was wearing a dirty shift without any sleeves. Just sort of gross when you're eating. Also, she was wearing dirty crocs. Just not very professional. read more

Haven't been in a while and ordered takeout over the holidays. Food was excellent! Pizza was perfectly cooked, toppings just right, sauce was great! Overall flavor and quality excellent! The person taking our order was kind enough. Only complaint is they did away with the Taco pizza. read more

order a pizza for delivery at 6:54 called twice pizza finally showed up at 8:15 cold .

Very fast! Great ambiance. Quiet, intimate. Food was yummy! Great little hidden gem tucked away right off the highway.

Zero stars if possible terrible pasta spaghetti and meatballs and fettuccine Alfredo it was disgusting the garlic toast was oily and disgusting I'll never be back read more

Great food! I love the food the pizza is the best and the subs are good as well. I eat there a few times a year

Waitress was very rude, threw our silverware on the table, didn't ask us for any refills. Pasta tasted like it was frozen and heated up, came out cold. Garlic knots came out not done. Waitress also acted like we were an inconvenience to her. Major attitude issues. read more

Came in off of the freeway to grab a bite. Convenient location, friendly service and yummy pizza!

I enjoyed my calzone a lot! This was a cheap, local place for a good $10 lunch on my way from Indy to Ft. Wayne. I had a good experience with the service, but I was the only person in the place. I would recommend to travelers, especially over a fast food chain! read more

Vinatellis Italian Cafe - Calzone - choose two toppings to add - Italian Near Me - Markle, Indiana

I'm not sure exactly why, but our family loves this place. It's one of our key stops as we leave Indy to visit family in Michigan. It's always been great service and food. Nothing fancy, but it doesn't need to be. read more

Great subs and great service! Will stop again next time we are driving through! Got the Deluxe and really enjoyed the herb bread.

The food is amazing! We found this little gem on our way back from the Marion splash house. Our server Emma was fantastic! We ordered the lasagna, a small pizza, spaghetti and a calzone. the dough and the croutons are made in house and are amazing the best Italian food that I have had in a long time! The calzones are by far my favorite. The portions are perfect size and the price for all of our food was $30. I would spend more at Applebee's for mediocre food. I will definitely make this one of our regular stops. read more

As our third visit here while traveling through since we are not from this area, we were once again not disappointed. We had the garlic bread, Italian sub and hot chicken wings. Service was friendly and we observed once again this little hidden gem right off the interstate next to a Dairy Queen, near a Motel 6 and a Heritage motel may not be getting the recognition for great food that it should. Take the time to look for it as there's not a lot of signage. Cute interior, good atmosphere and made with care food. read more

Vinatellis Italian Cafe - Garlic cheese bread 1/2 order $1.99 - Italian Near Me - Markle, Indiana

Came here after meetings in Fort Wayne, while looking for a place to eat. Overall decent Italian food and good prices. Service was good, and it's a nice little place. Garlic knots were tasty, and my baked pasta was above average. read more

I would strongly suggest not wasting your time at this restaurant. Offered us ten percent off due to our unpleasant experience. Server forgot salad for dressing and cheese on garlic bread. There are two of us in this restaurant. No apologies. Drive on by. Canned alfresco, grizzle filled chicken. Yuck. Did end up giving us meal with us paying for our drinks, but again. No apologies. Pass it by. read more

Wonderful fresh salad with delicious Italian salad dressing and home made croutons. The pizza was fresh hot and yummy

Very good pasta. In middle of nowhere perfect stop off I 69 south of Fort Wayne reasonably fast and definitely not fast food

Pizza and calzones are very good along with there bread sticks. I have had better pasta else where.

Sunday night in Markle. Not many choices. However, didn't need many choices. Vinatellis' calzones were extremely good and fresh. Best we've had in a long time. Our waitress Alexis very friendly, professional, and hard working. Clean. You could see into the kitchen and see it was spotless. We'll make a special trip here for the food. Not hard to find, right off the interstate. read more

Nice clean restaurant with delicious pizza! We got the crispy crust, and we were happy to see fresh mushrooms on top! Just off Rt 69 at the Rt 224 exit! read more

The service was very hospitable. We were seated quickly (during dinner time on Sunday). We had the buffet, and the food was delicious. Hot and fresh, and it was refilled several times while we were eating with different varieties of pizzas and other sides. read more

Nice little restaurant, the garlic knots were really good, we had a calzone and two personal pizzas and everything was super tasty. The waitress was very courteous and friendly; the overall experience was great. Highly recommendable!! read more

We stopped in while traveling because we were starving, in the middle of nowhere, and fast food did not sound appetizing. Man, did this place hit the spot! We ordered a pizza sub, and Italian deli sub, and the kids split the spaghetti. We also ordered some garlic knots. The garlic knots came out first. They were fantastic! They come with a garlic butter dipping sauce, and a half order gets you about a dozen. Not a bad deal for a couple bucks. They were all different sizes so you know they didn't just dump these things out of a pre packed frozen bag. The garlic was front and center, yet not overpowering. Soft, chewy, deliciousness. I could have been happy with just a big bowl of those. The kid's pasta was actually perfectly al-dente, and the sauce was perfect for them. Not too bold or sweet. It tasted like every real Italian home cooked pasta meal. It also came with two giant breadsticks which I did not get a chance to try. My wife adored the pizza sub. I had the Italian which had generous amounts of pepperoni, salami, etc, fresh tomatoes, and good quality lettuce. The meat and bun were perfectly toasted, and the amount of dressing was just right. The food did not fly out of the kitchen and now I see why: Great care was put into this sandwich!! Overall: great prices, great service, I'd definitely return the next time I'm making a boring trek up I-69! read more

The small salad I had was very good, croutons tasted homemade, ranch dressing didn't taste like 'hidden valley' which was refreshing. Hubby had Caeser salad which was good. We had the lasagna. Rich thick marinara sauce. Hubby had the 'Baked Deluxe Penne' same thick sauce. Had chunks of green pepper, mushrooms, onion, sliced pepperoni and sausage in it. The garlic bread was good and crunchy. Overall great place to get some good Italian for about $10 per person. read more

Doug the owner is not a nice guy, nor is the manager. The food is not quality and far to greasy and the location is too inconvenient to make it worth visiting. Overall, it is a lose lose situation getting food from here. Plus I did not find the cleanliness to be up to par. read more

Stopped in to use restroom while driving to Indianapolis. Staff was very friendly so we decided to get a couple of subs to take on the road. Tasty toasted subs to go were delicious. They do have a larger menu and nice sit down seating. Bathrooms were very clean. read more

Very Very Good... The quintessential small town, in the middle of nowhere, Italian pizzeria. House made pizza dough, and garlic knots. I would defiantly stop here again, since it's conveniently located right off the main highway. read more

Ate here on a road trip, great find! Did was awesome & affordable!

We stopped here for a great lunch on Sunday afternoon. Nice, clean, very pleasant workers. We did the buffet and they kept hot and delicious pizza coming out and had a great selection of salads: lettuce salad, Cesar salad and a really yummy taco salad. They also had parmesan knots and cinnamon knots on the buffet. I would definitely go back again! Very nice. I gave it 5 stars. read more

Very good food. Very nice waitress. Our group enjoyed it very much. Italian salad dressing was awesome.

My wife and I had the Chicken Parmigiana. It was very good. Seldom do we get that good a dinner at such a reasonable price.

Second visit. Food was great both times. Both times we stopped it was while we were traveling. Today, my husband had the Deluxe Calzone. My son had the Chicken Parmesan and I had the Baked Penne. All the entrees were good. read more
