Fresh made food to die for. Fancy? NO. Go for the food. I can't stop getting one of their burritos. Ask for a side of their green HOT sauce, even after you order your burrito spicy. It will send you to another world. NEVER had a bad or even mediocre meal. GO

We love eating at Italos. The food is freshly prepared to perfection. The staff are all friendly and helpful. The restaurant is very clean. Prices are reasonable. Italos is a great place to eat.

I fell in love with Mexican food while I lived in L.A. But since I moved back east good Mexican food has been hard to find. I found it. This was not a beautiful building ( but clean ). The chips and salsa were fresh. My burrito was awesome! I had chorizo in it and the green sauce was great. It was really cheap too ! I will eat there every time I am in Scranton!

In seeking a bit of the 'South of the Border' flavor, my companion and I was suggested to try this place. Here, unlike the standard Mexican styled cuisine, there's none of the Spanish décor, nor the music, you're ushered in my the roar of the fans both on the tree TV's above the bar in concert with the live audience within the establishment. The food is comprised of the standard menu items, what makes this place unique is the quality of the food and the sports accent. More importantly, there is a wide selection of meats to be used in your items, not just carne nor polio. Here, in this college town of NE, PA., is a unique option for those needing a bit of both. Yeaaaa!!! beat them beat them...oh sorry the team sports not the people. Buena Comitias!

The service was not good. The waitress was polite, when we saw her. We asked another girl who brought napkins for chips to go with the guacamole appetizer and she said okay, but swept the floor. Eventually the chips came. We never actually ate much of the guacamole (it was bland) because the meal came. No one was overly happy with that either. I ate some rice. The chicken enchiladas were disgusting. If you like a lot of cilantro, maybe. I couldn't eat it. Our friend ordered a margarita which they said would be $35. I used the women's room and wondered "How do you get cigarette burns on a toilet seat"? I don't think we'll make a return trip here.
