Went out with friends to Villa Renata saturday night on bristol pike in croyden and was not disappointed. The food was REALLY good and i would highly recommend it. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. Out waitress was only working there foir 5 days and was a yound girl and did a great job. we will definately be going back. The meals we had were rigatoni vodka sauce, Ziola's salad, angel hair with white clam and I forget the name of the fourth one. Definately go give them a try. going back tonight to get my white clam pie.

UPDATE: got our white clam pie last night (3/17/25) and you guys knocked it out of the park!!!!! I LOVE it and cant wait to get another. one of the best clam pies i ever had. Thank you so much!!!!! Cya soon

Awesome place! The wings are big and cooked perfectly. Mix up their hot & garlic parm sauce for a great flavor. Sicilian pizza is huge - for $17 it’s coming in just under $2 a slice. Speaking of slices if you stop in they always have a ton of slices available of different pies. Highly recommend!!

What a hidden little gem here in Croydon. Food was delicious. Dining room was surprisingly cute (we had low expectations) and service was good. Our waitress was brand new, had a few small hiccups, but the regular waitress stepped in and helped out. I had the Carbonara with grilled chicken and my husband had the spaghetti and meatballs. We will definitely be back, with our own wine too, it's BYOB.

I brought a friend here that lives in the area and didn't know that there is a new owner.

I ordered the Riley special last night which was chicken, shrimp, pasta, tomatoes and broccoli in an amazing sauce. She ordered the salmon salad. We also had garlic knots.

The food was beyond spectacular. The garlic knots were not greasy and super tasty.

Riley was actually our waitress and she was super friendly and provided great service.

I vote that the Riley special becomes a permanent addition to the regular menu.

If you haven't tried this place yet. Ya got to!!

Ordered take out sandwiches today and was rather disappointed. Large meatball parm had a total of 3 meatballs cut in half. Chicken cheesesteak hoagie had very little cheese and no seasoning. Eggplant parm was okay but the seeded rolls were good. Fortunately we paid for sides of hot and sweet peppers so the flavor was better. After a decent pizza experience, this wasn’t a good return.

Awsome little Italian joint. Server Riley was a rockstar. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was cozy. I hardly give a 5 star review, but Villa Renata deserves it. I had the Buffalo Chicken Cheese Steak with fries, and the wife had the pasta, both spot on with flavor. We will be returning. we need to try the pizza next.

The service here was absolutely incredible. Our server, Riley was a total sweetheart. Was very accommodating when I requested changes to the order, made recommendations, and checked on us often to make sure we had everything we wanted. The food was stellar too. I had grilled chicken in pink sauce with angel hair pasta. We got cannolis after for dessert and they are the best cannolis I have ever had in my life. Looking forward to coming back here again and again.

Villa Renata is Croydon's hidden gem! We've been there multiple times and it's always fantastic! The food is always so fresh and scrumptious. The owner/chef is very gracious and welcoming and his staff follows suit. You are never rushed through your meal. In fact they make sure you've completed one course before bringing you the next so you're not loaded up with too much food at once. I tell everyone I see about this place and they haven't been disappointed. We've gone with large parties as well and they never missed a beat! If you like BYOBs, want a tasty meal, reasonably priced and great service....Villa Renata is your place!! 😊👍
