Kay’s Italian Restaurant

Food and service is amazing, not to mention their portions are humongous we always take most of it to go and have lunch the next day.

Kay’s is a staple restaurant to the North Pocono area. I’ve never had a bad experience. The dinners come with amazing home made cinnamon rolls. The desserts are pure bliss, especially the lemon lush. The brunch is tasty and affordable.

Great place and food– nice family all the way around ! I have eaten there over the past 10 years dozens of times and enjoy the company and food. Good job !

Good pizza for the area outside Scranton I’d definitely get their appetizer sampler as it was very fresh tasting. Desserts are always great. Can’t complain about anything.

Fantastic restaurant. They have a large menu with great variety. The food is great but I go here mostly for the baked goods. I’ve only been here a few times but I’ve never left disappointed.

The only thing I have had from Kay’s are there homemade desserts. There aren’t many options in this area for food or desserts. Especially homemade deserts. Kay’s was recommended to me. After having a craving for cannolis we went to Kay’s. I was very impressed by there deserts. The cannoli was really good and filling, I could not Finnish my cannoli.
Kay’s is also a restaurant the parking lot was filled with cars at 9pm on a Friday night. I know on Sunday’s they offer a all you can eat breakfast buffet.
Overall Kay’s is a great place for desserts. The deserts are homemade and you will not be disappointed

This place is a small town pizza shop. Not great, not terrible. Nothing they do stands out on the dinner or lunch menu. Their best attribute is the deserts, they are quite good.

Amazing food and friendly service. Their pastries are also delicious. I have been going here for years and I enjoy it every time. Also, for the price you pay you get a lot of food. Five stars!!!

Kay’s pizzeria has the best pizza in Northeast Pennsylvania. One night, I decided to take my girl out on a date. Coming back home from college I thought I would take her somewhere where the food is delicious and has a nice environment. The place looks much better without the taxidermy looking at you while eating, thank you for finally removing it after so many years. After ordering a cheesesteak Stromboli and a chicken parmesan, we enjoyed a delicious meal. The one thing that was very disgusting and unpleasant, was the human hair that was baked into the piece of chicken. I also sent an email to management which never responded back. I am very disappointed after being a loyal customer for over 12 years.

Has been a staple in the Daleville/​Pocono/​Moscow area for years.
Pizza has been the one consistent over performer at this restaurant and it brings me back every time I am up in the Poconos. The restaurant is generally run down, but that does not take away from the food.
Be sure to order their cinnamon bread w/​their fresh made icing (if it doesn’t already come w/​your dinner). Holy moly is that good.

Not going to leave her hungry broke. Great menu either for pizza or pasta etc. Not to pricy and you get a good portion. Love the cinabun you get with bread

This place was amazing! I am visiting from northern Virginia and happened to come in for lunch. The pizza was amazing– the crust and the topping were so good and fresh!
But the desserts! The homemade desserts were out of this world! I love to bake, so I can be rather critical. The Philadelphia butter was absolutely delicious! There were so many choices that looked very delectable. Next time I visit, I will make an effort to come back!

I use to LOVE Kay’s… Their food, and service. Now? I won’t dine in bc of the subpar service I get, and the quality of food, not to mention the dingy dining area… I did give them 2 stars bc last week when I was craving a cheesesteak I called for a take out for that and wings. When I got home, the grease was already through the bun, with a little amount of cheese on it. I know that cheese steaks are greasy, don’t get me wrong. But I had ordered many of these through the years there, and this was just disgusting and went right in the garbage. I opened my wings up, and it was as if they poured wing sauce in the bottom of the container, and dumped my wings in, not even coated. The reason I am giving them 2 stars and not any is because when I called and complained, it took a little coaxing on my part, but I got a full refund towards another meal, for another day. When I do order again. I hope the double crust white pizza hasn’t changed.

Absolutely overrated. Nothing special here. Tried Kay’s Italian restaurant a few times. In summary, the food is boring/​bland. What it lacks in flavor, they try to make up for in size. Big portions of seriously lack luster food. Over done with cheese, butter, oil, etc. if you’ve eaten in seriously authentic Italian food in New York or Philly, this pales in comparison. But if dining out for you is finding huge portions of cheese laden food to stuff yourself with at a reasonable price, then you’ll be happy here. Never tried the pizza though which others gave good reviews.

Great pizza. The crust is absolutely amazing and they will split the pizza if you like. We had the old world and traditional half and half pizza and both were delicious. Great food and atmosphere.

Surprisingly good pizza place and basic Italian restaurant. I expected this place to be pretty awful when we arrived, but the food was pretty decent.
The pasta was simple, but fine. The honey fried chicken wasn’t bad at all, the fries were good too.
My friends ordered a couple of slices of the broccoli pizza, I was very jealous. They said there was a ton of garlic in this top and bottom crusted pizza, and it smelled great.
The best part of the meal comes with pretty much whatever you order though: the sticky buns. These are similar to Cinnabuns as they are the type of soft that only occurs when the dough is 99% butter. The icing melts in a warm gooey mess. Absolutely delicious.
Service was great, our server was friendly and was cracking jokes with us throughout the meal, even though we were the last people in there and they closed right after we left.

As a «local «this used to be the best pizza in the area. Notice key words used to service is mediocre at best most times. The quality of the food has slipped so bad I’d rather eat at McDonald’s at least there you know it’ll be bad all the time so no surprises.

I am from Brooklyn, NY. I’ve been to MANY Italian restaurants in Brooklyn, Staten Island & Manhattan. I also tried many authentic Italian families cooking from my family to friends, to my boyfriend’s Italian family… This place doesn’t compare at all to anything I’ve tried elsewhere!
I came here with my boyfriend and his dad because this was one of the nearest places to eat from where his dad’s vacation home in the little community in Eagle Lake is. As soon as we walked in we noticed it was crowded with a lot of people. The locals seem to really enjoy it. I guess they don’t know any better! We also noticed it was COLD in this restaurant! There was no heat on in there at all. I had to eat with my coat on! They also don’t accept credit cards.
I was warned by my boyfriend’s dad to stay away from the Italian food here. He said it is safe to order a burger. But my boyfriend and I didn’t listen. After all it is an «Italian Restaurant» so I wanted to try something «Italian». I ordered the cheese ravioli with their «authentic» sauce and he ordered the linguine with clam sauce. Our meals came with a salad or soup. We first got bread and cinnabons. I thought that was strange but the cinnabons were actually really good. The cinnabons, bread and salad were the only things I got that were good. When our meals arrived I couldn’t wait to try it! I was very disappointed though… The sauce had no taste whatsoever! I couldn’t taste a thing. I could make much better sauce than that I said right away! My boyfriend than looked down at his plate of food and immediately noticed a long black hair in it! (GROSS!) He took it out and didn’t say anything to the waitress! I would have said something right away but that’s just me! He then tried his linguini with clam sauce and he said it was terrible!!! The clams didn’t taste fresh at all and he said the garlic didn’t either. It was probably the ones that were in the jar.
I won’t be coming back here the next time I am in the area visiting!

I love Kays! I especially love making my own pizza. Sometimes you have to wait a little while because there is a lot of people, but that is not there falt. So I am not taking of a star because of that. So everything is perfectly fine. I could totally go another 1000 times.

Great food. Homemade tasty pastas and sauce. Dinner has complimentary sweet buns and fresh bread. Portions on dinner are over the top. Enough spaghetti to feed a family of four. Took home large doggie bag with spaghetti, cheese ravioli and beef ravioli… we three people were stuffed to the gills. Homemade soups are excellent and the salad had a nice addition to it in the way pg condiments.
