My husband and I have been there twice in 1 month. The spi. sauce is very good. My husband loves the sausage. Of course I love the pasta, bread/oil and the wine. I had the seafood mix with spicy garlic sauce. There wasn't much seafood and the sauce could have been alittle more spicy. BUT, all in all it is... More

Took my dad to eat here on Father's Day. He has lived right down the street for years but has never eaten here. I made reservations with open table and I'm glad I did because the place filled up shortly after we arrived. The service and atmosphere were great. I loved the crab tortellini Alfredo. Delicious! The prices are reasonable... More

We attend an annual conference in Hershey every year and like to entertain clients in a comfortable and relaxed dinner. Phil and his gang at Fenicci's (Carla, Amy, Angie, and Melissa this year) have taken care of us three years in a row and our clients are to the point where they talking about the menu several months prior to...

We dined at Fenicci's with family. We have never been there before so we didn't know what to expect. Our server was very good and attentive. The food was average. My clams and linguine were made as I asked and it was good. Not many clams however. My husband seafood mix lacked presentation. The shrimp was unimpressive, the salmon followed... More

The food was good. Kelly did a good job as waitress and the hostess was friendly. Everybody in our group liked their food and I found the hot wings to be some of the best around. (Except for the garlic bread, that was disappointing plus it was $4) Pizza is different but good. I liked reading the history of the... More

The food was ok as well as the service. What is great is the location. You can park your car a crossed the street and walk to the theater after dinner. The place is usually packed. it is loud and very tight. The food was good Italian, and seafood. There is a very diverse menu

We want to Fenicci's when we were in Hershey. Service was awesome but the food was not hot. One of the people in our party ordered a rib-eye steak and got a strip steak so he sent it back only to get a steak that was raw. We were afraid to send it back. Who knows what would have happened... More

So when you try to talk to every table obviously someone is going to be last, at least I try to talk to all tables, sometimes you never even see a manager let alone an owner who cares in the restaurant. As far as the food I have little to say ,the gentleman got a prime rib end cut medium... More

Calamari tender and lightly battered. Eggplant parmesan was not mushy but crisp and flavorful. Big servings no room for dessert! My husband and son were happy campers:)

We go annually to Hershey Park and stay at Hotel Hershey. We stay for a few nights, therefore, we like to venture out once in a while to a restaurant outside of the Hotel. On our recent visit on 5/28/13, we stumbled upon the restaurant Fenicci's in downtown Hershey. We are from Long Island, N.Y., and are used to having... More
