Let's get a couple of things out of the way. The service is always good and the ambiance quite acceptable. Many of you know that I usually do not downgrade unless necessary. It is necessary. We've been coming here for years. I met the owner at another eating establishment and told him how much we loved the food. Unfortunately he passed away a few years ago and his wife took over. She did a great job keeping the place going but recently sold out. Zio's is under new management and we are not happy. We always get Fruitti de Mare, one white, one red and it's always fresh and delicious not to mention substantial. Tonight's dinner was your quintessential and consummate example of "shrinkflation" High price for less food. Now I will admit we may have made a mistake. We were looking for our usual choice and saw Trio de Mare and we said ok. That was only shrimp, clams and scallops. We really wanted shrimp, clams, mussels, squid with chunks of garlic. I just checked the menu here on Yelp and there is a Linguine de Mare at a lower price of $27.95. We paid $30 for less. But that's not the reason for 2 generous stars. The food sucked. The shrimp was mealy. The scallops chewy. Both had been sitting out all day. 4 shrimp, 4 scallops, 4 little necks over a little linguine. A disgrace. Now with that said I will probably call first to see if they have the Linguine with mussels, clams and shrimp and if there are at least 10 of each with 5 shrimp. I'm willing to pay $33 like we do at Corollas. But this was a Friday night and the food should be fresh. I notice on Yelp it says claim this business so the owner hasn't bothered to check in. I'm not even sure they have a website. Bottom line is there are too many fine Italian restaurants around to waste your time and money here. My pictures below are from prior visits. If you don't get this you're being ripped.

Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti
Carrie S.

I'm not sure how it took me so long to try this place. It was delicious. The service was fantastic. The mussels marina appetizer was great. The mussels were plentiful. The sauce had a lot of depth. Fresh garlic, whole tomatoes. A tad bit salty. The bread basket was to die for. Love the onion bread and pizza bread. So soft and moist. I had the veal parmigiana with broccoli and potatoes. It was fresh broccoli- not frozen!!! One of my favorite veal parms around. The breading was a little soggy though. That comes with being covered in sauce and cheese. The sauce was very good. The chicken parm with spaghetti received high remarks. I tried it. The sauce tasted different than the one I had with the veal. I'm not going to lie. I felt a little rushed because everything came out so quickly. The salads came out at the same time as the appetizer. It wasn't bad but we wanted to have a relaxing time. Spread it out a little bit. Especially since it wasn't busy. I do like that it is a byob!!!

I wish I can give a higher star review but due to the service being terrible, I gave it a 3 star review. Came in with a group of 5, 3 adults, 2 children. We just found this place while being in the area and just Yelped some place random based on the reviews. We were standing at the front waiting to be seated, because there was no signage saying to just sit down, we didnt know what to do, whether to sit down, or just wait. We stood there for quite some time, before a woman finally came over and led us to a room that was behind a wall and away from everyone else. Thought it was cool, we were being seated in a separate section, but it wasn't good because we then sat there for about 20 minutes before the waitress came over to give us menus, then longer to order our food, then longer again to wait for our food. The portions were a good size and the food was tasty, but the wait time and the fact that we kept having to ask the server for napkins, then refills and her not coming back and catching an attitude when we wanted things, just rubbed me the wrong way, and I wouldn't come back.

Broccoli rabe with sausage
Craig W.

My wife wanted Italian for her birthday but nothing too pretentious or fancy. We pass by Zio's every week and figured we would try there since other reviews were fairly positive. I can tell you this place did not disappoint. Walking in it looks like a place you would pop in for a slice or two of pizza, but to the left of the entrance is a nice cozy dining room. The menu covers everything from an array of apps, pizza, cheesesteaks, hoagies, paninis and pasta dishes. The prices are reasonable (given inflation, but pre inflation the prices were still fair based off old menus) and the portions are pretty big. We got the broccoli rabe with sausage appetizer, penne alla vodka, and linguini frutti de mare in marinara sauce. The broccoli rabe and sausage was almost a meal in itself. You get two big sausages and a mountain of sautéed broccoli rab with roasted garlic and pepper flakes. The sausage was nicely grilled and the rab was really tender. We even had enough to take home. The penne alla vodka was cooked perfectly. They advertise all pasta is cooked Al dente and they nailed it. The sauce also has chunks of prosciutto which added another layer of deliciousness. The frutti de mare came with more seafood than I thought it would which is always a nice sight to see. It was full of clams, muscles, shrimp, and calamari. All were perfectly cooked with the exception of 1 muscle that didn't open but hey it happens. The sauce was perfect to sop up using the garlic knots served for the table. It was an epic meal and we can't wait to go back to try some of the other items, mainly their pizza. For us this was a hidden gem because of all the times we pass by we only ever really stopped at Mart Pretzels. In the economy, fairly priced, big portioned, quality food and flavors is a hard combo to find these days so I'm glad we decided to stop by.

Food is good, however, they charge a service charge when paying cash. Check your receipt.

Steak Florentine (that is tenderloin not chopped steak)
Lucy P.

This place is more than just your typical pizza shop. Their food is really good. I love the pastas, pizza, salads, sandwiches and of course pizza. If you love Cesar salad they have the best dressing anywhere. Portions are not small.

Beware: New owners--My husband had a Zio's giftcard for $20 that he was recently gifted and went to use on his lunchbreak. The new owners would not accept Zio's giftcard as they said no more giftcards would be accepted and turned him away. We are huge customers and Zio's is our 1st choice-not anymore. They should honor gift cards or should have figured gc tranfers between old and new owners out as anyone who bought a gc for someone--it won't work and there was no announcement or transparency in this change and step. Bad business. Not a smart move. Where is the purchasers' money? Someone got beat and anyone with a giftcard is out of a giftcard on top of that! I have never heard of a business doing this to regular customers or any customers for that matter!

Next time we go back we'll definitely try an entree or some pasta and bring a bottle of wine as it is BYOB.

Cockadoodle Dans - Lunch special half cheesesteak

Cockadoodle Dans

3.6(67 reviews)

They could do so much better. The cheesesteak was OK, but overly priced. It was spiced well and the…read morerolls was ok, but it felt like a $12 cheesesteak . $21.00 is a lot for a cheesesteak. I am guessing that the rent on Main Street is killing them. Lillos has a $20 cheesesteak but it is twice the girth and much better than this one. Also, the store does not have a menu available so you have to watch a rotating screen which scrolls through the items too fast, and I felt pressured to tell the cashier what I wanted to order. It is mostly a takeout place, but their online menu was not working on my phone. Unfortunately, my search for a premium sandwich in Moorestown continues.

This small shop on Main Street in Moorestown seems to be more of a takeout favorite than an eat-in…read morespot. I watched several people pick up orders while I was there, but nobody else ate in-house. It was fairly busy, so it took 20 min for my order of the Batman & Robin and Cooper Sharp cheese fries to be ready. That plus a bottle of water totaled $30. And I paid cash, which saves you 4%. The Batman & Robin was good and unique, but was it in my top 10 cheesesteaks? No. The fries were overly salted in some areas and had no salt in others. They did not skimp on the cheese. My honest opinion? If I'm going to spend that much on a cheesesteak, I'll go to Lillo's, which is better in quality, quantity and ratio of meat/cheese, and taste. (Unfortunately, Lillo's has limited hours.) This place is most popular/famous for its wings, though. I would give them another try with an order of wings. Tip: Paying cash saves you 4%.
