My wife and I had lunch here. We tried a sampling of all the small pastries, a cannoli and a blueberry Danish. I also tried a slice of their meat lovers pizza. Everything is made fresh daily and anything left over is donated locally. The pizza was incredible – as you’d expect from a bread/pastry place perhaps, the crust was so delicious and the sauce and toppings were a great compliment to the bread. It was amazing how each of the pastries had unique flavors and textures – some were sweet, some more savory, chocolate, coconut, various jellies and fillings. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The small indoor dining area is complemented by an outdoor area. It’s not a busy section of town and we were able to find street parking easy enough, although after having been there, I’d walk a few blocks if needed next time!

Alvaros is a gem in Harrisburg. Excellent Italian food whether you eat inside, at a sidewalk table or do takeout. We took advantage of their New Year’s Eve takeout package and everything has been excellent.

Affordable and delicious Italian…a hidden gem in midtown. The sandwiches are made with fresh bread and there are daily specials. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried so far.

I have been looking for authentic Italian food since I traveled to Rome last June, and this is the only place I have found that has it. I can not recommend this restaurant enough!! It is in a cute corner store, has indoor and outdoor seating, and a very large menu with breakfast, lunch, cookies, cannolis, and gelato! Employees were super friendly as well. I will be making trips to Harrisburg just to visit this place

It’s a very small but cute place. I like the outdoor seating area and interior design, but it’s hard to walk inside because it’s cluttered with tables and chairs. I ordered a ravioli dish and the serving size was really small, so I was not fully satisfied. I’ll have to go again if I want to get a better scope of their food.

Stopped for a little lunch and a cappuccino. We ordered the gnocchi and meatballs and pasta with rolled eggplant. The food had a smooth flavor, but was barely room temperature. The people there were very kind and we’ll definitely go back. We also ordered a pound of assorted cookies
