Gino’s Restaurant and Pizzeria: Tasty Slices in Norristown

Pizza is something there’s no shortage of in Pennsylvania, but everybody has a favorite spot where they claim the pie is a cut above the rest. For Norristown diners, that spot might just be Gino’s. For over 35 years, this family-owned Italian restaurant has been satisfying locals with hearty portions, delectable flavors and good prices. The food here is authentic Italian, not Americanized, and regulars praise the extensive menu. Some of the most popular dishes include the eggplant parmigiana, which is breaded to perfection and served with the right amount of cheese, as well as the lobster ravioli with crab sauce that has a generous amount of seafood in every bite. If you’re craving pizza, the pies here are top of the line, with a crisp, tender crust and an exceptional house-made sauce. Note that Gino’s, like many Pennsylvania restaurants, is BYOB.

Alfredo’s Restaurant: A Norristown Favorite

Alfredo's Restaurant has been a Norristown institution for years, with generations of locals coming through the doors to enjoy top-notch breakfasts, lunches and dinners.

Many regulars rave that it’s the best breakfast in town for one reason: the breakfast pizza. This savory slice is a real winner. The burgers here are exceptional, with hand-formed patties and delicious toppings. Alfredo’s also offers up a great version of the “zep." If you’ve never had one, it’s a serious thing: a hoagie roll with salami, Provolone, raw onion and tomato, seasoned with oregano, olive oil, salt and pepper. They do it right. Sure, it’s not the healthiest food that you’ll ever eat in your life, but it's said to be very tasty!
