I was not impressed...scratch that...WE were not impressed. Three couples in total. We didn't have a reservation, and were seated in an uncomfortable table with stools instead of chairs, even though there was only ONE other table seated the entire meal during prime dinner hours. Service was borderline rude and the food was so-so. We will not be back and I would not recommend this place.

food was great...the Waitress on the other hand was horrible. She never came back to check on us, never filled up our water, we had to ask for bread, screwed up our order with the other couple we were with. And to top it off, we gave her a gift cretificate and she told me it was a "COMPUTER NIGHTMARE". Wow...this supposedly a high class place? Never again... Such a shame....

In response to the individual complaining about a lack of a "Kid's Menu"...go somewhere else then. This is an AMAZING restaurant. To say Olive Garden has better food than Peppino's is obsurd. Personally when I go to a restaurant, I want to eat somewhere that isn't loud, obnoxious, and rushed. I don't want to hear kids crying and then listen to their parents threaten to take them to the bathroom. This is upscale dinning, and it is absolutely exceptional. What makes Peppino's stand out to me is the fact that they give you, the patrons, time to enjoy each course in a comfortable amount of time. Its not like the "Olive Garden" where they bring everything out to you as fast as they can. Chain Restaurants do that because time is money, and the more people they can have dine in one evening the better. Peppino's has great service because their staff "Knows" the food and wine they are serving to the customers, unlike some of the service working at chain restaurants. I recommend Peppino's by and far and have no reservations in saying it is the best dinning experience in this area, outside of Pittsburgh or Cleveland.

The food is closet to Mama's..Can't beat that and I don't have to clean up for the family...Thank You

Kudos the food was out of this world!!! Keep up the great work..This is a DON'T MISS PLACE!

great great food!! Awesome place!!!!!!!!!!

The service was very slow, the waitress was argumentative, the food was passable (the pasta was overcooked). Cafeteria food at 4 star pricing.

Being 100% Italian myself and raised on genuine Italian food, I can say this is as close as it comes to gourmet Italian. The ambiance is new and classy, without being too overly pretentious. Prices are moderate-to-high, but what you would expect for the level of service and quality of food. Highly recommended.

I have dined at Peppino's several times and have to say for the Erie area it is one of, if not the best, dining experiences around. It is a locally owned restaurant with great food and wine capped off by impeccable service. The menu offers a wide variety of appetizers, entrees and desserts which have kept me coming back. The menu prices are only slightly higher than what the chain restaurants charge but Peppino's food, wine and ambiance elevate it into another league in which the chains have no chance of competing with.



I will say Peppino's offers what big city restaurants offer at only a fraction of the price right here in our backyard, a dining experience. If your looking for processed food with poor service and quantity instead of quality...keep your chain restaurants, I'll be at Peppino's.

They can stick there high class joint up where the sun doesnt shine I was from out of town didnt know where I was and I stop to ask for direction and to use the restroom and was hungery too! Weather was white out conditions and the ruddies bar tender said to me this isnt a truck stop ... who knows I might of wanted to eat there too! on behalf of all cabbies I request that you boy cott this place!

I visited this restaurant with my family, when we were seated the waitress informed us that there were no kids menus, so when I ordered, we ordered an adult plate of spagetti for my 2 kids to split, I was then told there was a $5. upcharge to split that dinner between the kids, how rediculis, I feel with the no kids menues and then the upcharge for my 2 kids to share an adult meal tells me they don't want kids there and that is how they must discourage parents from bringing them... Shame on Peppinos, kids are part of our family and deserve to be treated like any other restaurant does, the food was average at best, very expensive $93. for 4 dinners, I think Olive Garden has better tasting food at a lot less costs and they are Kid friendly...
