🇮🇹 Tucked along the Parkway West Juliano’s Restaurant and Pizzeria is a local treasure, dishing out hearty, home-style meals and the kind of service that makes you feel like family![]()
🤔 You know the minute you pull into the parking lot at Juliano’s Restaurant and Pizzeria you feel taken care of. Owner, Nick Scalise, does this by putting the concept of psychological safety into practice. Here’s how he does it. He guarantees that you are going to enjoy a meal that is individually prepared for you with the finest ingredients. You may say well anyone can do that. Here is where he takes it a step further. He has numerous signs in the parking lot and restaurant that should you not be satisfied with your meal and dining experience to call or email him personally with his phone number and email so he can make it right. He also has a sign where he mentions he will make no excuses for the state of the economy and will not skimp on the quality and quantity of the ingredients just to save a dollar. As mentioned previously, you immediately feel a strong level of trust when dining here.![]()
🧀 Appetizers - Start out with an appetizer of your choice. The large order of zucchini features 14 thinly sliced zucchini strips lightly breaded and fried until golden brown. ![]()
🍕 Pizza - Juliano’s is known for their pizza. They make their own dough and you can get it in 3 styles; traditional thin, Sicilian, or pan. You can get toppings of your choice or try one of their gourmet specialty pizzas. ![]()
🍝 Pasta/entrees - Juliano’s makes their own marinara sauce. Try their pasta, lasagna, gnocchi, or Chicken Parmigiana. After 4:00pm you can get dinners such as Eggplant Parmigiana, Jumbo Shrimp, Fish, and Fettuccini Alfredo.![]()
🍗 Other menu items - Juliano’s also has delicious calzones, hoagies, wings, and salads. ![]()
🧐 My final take - Juliano’s is not going to wow you with modern decor and ambience, however, they will impress you with what matters most, the food, service, and a hands on owner who pours love into his restaurant. It’s no secret a lot of people say this is their favorite place to dine!

🍟 As requested, I’ve reposted the Jerry’s Curb Service write-up—and it absolutely wowed the crowd!![]()
American Drive-In Restaurant nestled in the heartland of Beaver County remains hit to locals and tourist since 1957![]()
🤔 How often do you go through a drive-thru window to grab food or coffee? Well before drive-thru’s existed there were Drive-In Restaurants. While the waitresses do not wear roller skates like the 50s, you can go back to the golden age of fast food and stop at Jerry’s Curb Service in Bridgewater. Not only will you go back in time, but you will get delectable food that is made with love!![]()
🚘 Pull up and look at their menu on the side of the building and park, a waitress will be out to take your order. The building looks like you go inside, however you do not, it’s only for the staff.![]()
🍔 The food - You can get a burger and fries which is standard for this type of establishment. However, there are more items to choose from! Their “Dorsey” is their signature sandwich which consists of a double cheeseburger with lettuce, barbecue and garlic pepper sauces atop a hard roll. They also have, chicken, steak, and ham sandwiches. In my opinion, go with the meat, cheese, and fries option (caption). Their chicken is handed breaded and delicious! They also have a plethora of sauces to choose from!![]()
🧐 My final take - What’s better on a beautiful day/night than parking your car or truck, putting down the tailgate, and breaking bread with friends and family and enjoying some great conversation. If you’ve never been there, give Jerry’s Curb Service a try!
