10. Pizza Hut
Reviewed By Awarely
Anyone who has been to one Pizza Hut probably has been to them all. We ordered online and got a great deal with their special one topping large ($6.+) but be careful. If you make ANY changes (extra cheese, extra sauce, etc,) the special price jumps up. Not the fault of this restaurant, however.

Son and daughter-in-law were visiting from SanFrancisco; son insisted we eat at Dante's. We've always loved the food here. The atmosphere isn't for everyone - small, dark, usually empty (they have a thriving pick-up trade), everything a little out of date. No problem. The food is great, and that's all we care about; we like the casual atmosphere. I like the strombolis; the small will feed three or four people. Chicken parm dinner and pizza are also favorites. Always had friendly (if occasionally inexperienced) service; we can be pretty demanding and they always roll with it. If you're looking for this kind of food in the Oneonta area, Dante's is a good place to start.

Nina's has been around for a long time, but it is gone through several ownership changes over the years. It was closed for periods of time while changing hands. Perhaps we caught them on a bad night, but we didn't really love the pizza. The crust was too thick and doughy, the sauce was lackluster...it wasn't terrible..it just wasn't great. Oneonta is an Italian town. Some of the best Italian restaurants anywhere were and still are in Oneonta. There are a couple of other "classic" pizzerias in town, that have also been around for a long time and are still owned by the same families. Their pizza is more authentic.

Went here with some friends after a beer tasting event. We tried plain cheese and sausage, both were very good and was pretty fast considering it was very busy. my friend had their famous cheese pizza with cold mozzarella on it. He said it was fantastic.They had many slices to choose from. Would go back again if I was in the area.

We stopped in while traveling down 88 and finding the listing on TripAdvisor. We are so glad we did! Not only was the pizza to die for (we enjoyed the Buffalo chicken pizza) but the service was fantastic! Mark was attentive and very entertaining. Who knew you get a comedy show too Definitely going back. Worth the trip from Binghamton just for the pizza!Thanks for the review. Glad to hear food was great, and the service too. Mark is definitely an asset to our place. Look forward to seeing you again soon. Richie & Penny

We were so pleasantly surprised at this small 80-ish seat restaurant in Oneonta this weekend. $140 bill for 3 people included 2 apps, 3 entrees and 4 glasses of wine. We ordered several of the evenings's specials which included marinated sardines with a little caprese salad and house-made meatballs; entrees were house-made pappardelle with shrimp and scallops in a garlic,white wine sauce; angle hair pasta with seafood and a vodka sauce and rigatoni with meatballs in house-made pomodora sauce. All were quite delicious. Chris, our waitron, was efficient and had a good sense of humor. I would definitley recommend this tiny gem to anyone visiting Oneonta.

This was our third time eating at Stella Luna, and it is consistently a wonderful place to eat dinner. It has become our go-to restaurant when we are visiting family in Oneonta. The wait staff is always congenial, helpful, attentive. Our waitress last visit was all of that, and interesting as well, being headed toward a career in coral reef study. (She willingly put up with my inquisitiveness.)The atmosphere is both comfortable and inviting. You can eat outside this time of year, but if you eat inside, it has an 'outside' patio feel.The food is wonderful. We shared the calamari Siciliano-- the first time we've had baby squid ---in a delicious white wine and garlic broth with garlic bread. While the bread was delicious, I could imagine this bowl over pasta for a delicious entrée. I had the tortellini arrabbiata, hot spice level, which was perfect for a heat lover like myself. The heat by no means overwhelmed the flavors, but it was present. Next time I order this, I will request no capers, only that I'm not wild about them. We also ate pork osso bucco on the specials menu, with risotto that was out of this world perfection. The carrot cake was the best either one of us has ever eaten. The wine list is large and thoughtful and bound to please. Stella Luna is Italy and it's Oneonta and you can feel like you're home.

We came here for dinner at our hotelâs recommendation and were happy we did. The restaurant was busy; we grabbed seats at the bar because we planned to have a drink before eating. It was a happy decision. Our bartender/server was outstanding: attentive, conversational and, most importantly, knowledgeable about the menu. We enjoyed talking to the people next to us while waiting for our food - mostly daily specials but a pasta bolognese not to be missed. I cook Italian pretty well, but if this were in our town weâd be regulars. Thank you so much for your kind words and taking the time to review us. We are glad you enjoyed your time with us and hope you come again if you're ever in our area.
