We had a cocktail bridal shower and everything was perfect, the food, the set up and the service. Kim and Liz were amazing from start to finish, we booked with Kim who was communicative throughout the whole process and went above and beyond to make sure the shower was perfect. Kim and Liz did most of the setting up and decorating with some of our stuff and plenty of their own, they added touches we didn’t even know we needed. The food was delicious and kept coming out. After the shower we went out to the outdoor bar for more drinks and the service was great there as well. Would 100% recommend booking a party through Originals and letting Kim and Liz work their magic!!!

We have been going here for at least 10yrs or longer. I WOULD SAY THE LAST YEAR OR SO HAD WENT DOWNHILL. The food is not as good as it use to be and the service is also lacking. They use to have good waitress and good busboys.And the new menu is also not as good as the old one. There are a few more not so good thing to say about our experience there in the last year but for now I will just keep it at that.we always had it enjoyed it in the past.But no more we stop going and then we will go back but it still is lacking what the old originals use to be.

Walked in, ordered a “CHEF SALAD”. I asked “Do you sell Chef Salads?” She said yes and asked “small or large?” I said “large”. She put in the order… $12.00 and some change (I can’t remember the change amount). After a couple minutes my order came out. She handed it to me and I thought to myself, “kinda light for a chef salad? I took it and walked out. Got to my car and looked at the receipt stapled to bag. It stated “HOUSE SALAD”. Went back in and told her that I ordered a “CHEF SALAD”. She said (all bold a direct) “THAT’S THE CLOSEST THING WE HAVE TO A CHEF SALAD”. As if I was to accept that and say ok,. “No, I ordered a shelf salad and she said “what’s a chef salad? We don’t sell that”. I said ” Do you sell hoagies? Chef salad is a salad with lunch meat.” Like ham, turkey, cheese…?”. She went to back to get the manager to see if she could HELP me or EVEN CHANGE my order. Because I told her that “I DON’T WANT A HOUSE SALAD”. Manager came out and asked “oh, you want like SALAMI…?” I’ll put some salami…as she was walking away I said…and ham, cheese, boiled egg…???” They brought it back, correct. ALL THIS BEING SAID, MY POINT… The girl that took my order knew that I asked for a CHEF SALAD, KNEW THEY DID NOT SELL CHEF SALAD BUT BASICALLY, LIED TO ME BY HANDING ME A HOUSE SALAD AND EXPECTED ME TO JUST ACCEPT IT AND BE HAPPY. NO, NOT SO. NEVER again will I go there!

I was there for the mother’s day special they had, the music was ungodly loud and if you sat where the waitstaff could not get to you easily you were not getting drink refills and were rude, when you did asked for something it was like we were bugging her. We had three separate families there and asked for a split check, instead of an answer the one check was slammed on the table and the waitress walked away, we could not even get a check break down. We then had to hunt down the waitress to even pay the bill. The food in itself was enough to make any of us not want to come back, the steak was still mooing how raw it was and we were not asked how we would like it. Overall, it was a terrible experience.

Love everything about this place. Their ability to evolve with the times is impressive. We’ve been coming here since we were kids in the 90’s. Now, we go with our kids and they LOVE it! The new patio with live entertainment…and the new menu…all very nice! We continue to enjoy Originals (or O’s as the kids call it now!)

Only did take out from there for my aunt. I thought almost $18.00 for a small pizza with pepperoni was very expensive. She enjoyed it, but in my neighborhood, you can get a delicious large pie with a topping for that.

Absolutely crazy. Placed an order tonight for delivery . After over a hour with no knock on the door I called . Was told there was an emergency in the kitchen and my money would be refunded within 48 hours. It sounded scripted and like bull . I’m good and saved 50 on a pizza and wings.

Original’s is honestly the best pizza I’ve had in this part of the northeast. Especially after covid. It beats all the other places around, based on one thing. Quality. The restaurant/food industry will always have prices changing as the economy fluctuates. Nowhere in the history of the industry has the price of any food stayed the same. For whatever reason, supply and demand, the value of a dollar, the cost of living, gas, rent etc. The majority of this is almost always out of even the most honest proprietor. The definition of cheap and expensive or fairly priced or overpriced are all based off of that. The one thing that a business isn’t supposed to change, if it’s a long standing one, is the quality. I cam honestly say, what put this place over the top and is my #1 pick. Is the quality of food here has not changed an inch, despite how hard the economy has changed. There’s plenty of reasons to come here. I don’t come for nostalgia, I dont come for tradition, I don’t come because it’s close. I order from here frequently, based off one thing . The quality. It has grown in what they offer, as far as dining, a brand new bar lounge, to build on what it already was. They now have live entertainment, a full bar,and offer way more then just pizza. The menu is now full of things that are particular to this place. They are changing and adapting with the times, which is what any business, musician, store, is supposed to do, while being true to it’s origins. There is nothing else around here, that offers what they do as far as atmosphere, menu size, and is enjoyable for all ages. Grab a beer, grab a bite, meet someone new, bump into someone old, pop in, pop out, eat a favorite dish, or expand your pallette. It probably sounds like I work for place or something, or someone a favor. I don’t. They don’t know my name, I don’t hang out there. This place is literally a one and only, and I have watched it grow and I am almost certain it will prosper over the next ten years, into whatever it is that guys who own pizza places want. The best pizza hands down in northeast Philadelphia. Good prices, everyone from the host to owner clearly care about what they do, and it shows.
