Darlaine Donna Raley
We love to visit this restaurant especially the time we will visit my mother-in-law in Harrisburg before, now that she was already passed away. On memorial weekend 2023, we decided to dine-in while we visit the cemetery for our respect and bringing flowers. Foods are delish, friendly server not to mention the very yummy bread.

We happened on this restaurant during a drive to Harrisburg and it is definitely a gem! The service was exemplary and the food was wonderful. Everyone was so friendly. The complimentary foccacia bread was warm and so flavorful. We ordered the Mega Meat pizza and we were not disappointed. It had a wonderful smoky flavor and was cooked to perfection. We will definitely come back and may make a special trip just to do so.

One of my favorite pizzas in town for sure! From the crispy crust to the flavor of the sauce and the toppings, it’s delicious. If you’re a ranch dressing lover I highly recommend getting some to use as a dip. Sound weird? Try it. All around you can’t go wrong with whatever you order.

We finally were able to try Morello’s today and they did not disappoint. Our service was outstanding, Jeff and Crystal were wonderful. Very courteous and friendly.

First time there, but won’t be the last. One of us had steak dinner, one a pasta dinner, and one a specialty salad meal. All were great. Menu variety was huge. Even have an outside covered patio with lots of ceiling fans. Take time to try it-won’t regret it.

Had a group of about 20 people and children that arrived at about 3:00PM on 6/10/23. We were not the couple hosting the group but when we arrived we were the leading family of the group. When we asked about the reservation they escorted us to a large enough room to support a large group. Very courteous greeting from waitress and manager. The remaining group came in shortly after our arrival and likewise was escorted to join our group. The waitress did an awesome job taking our orders and correctly matched them to the customers. I have to say the entire staff did an awesome job preparing our meals. The impressive service resulted in awesome turnaround time of 23 minutes from the time we ordered until the time we received our meal’s. There were several employees that made that impressive event happen to perfection. Naturally with small children there was a drink spilled on the floor but the staff promptly cleaned up the spill. Again, I will say the waitress and manager did an awesome job taking care of our group. KEEP UP THE AWESOME WORK MORELLO EMPLOYEES YOU DID GREAT!
