    Sunday Sauce brings back the love and memories of going to your Italian Grandmothers. Tommy is one of the best chefs in Havertown making old world traditions come alive in the delicious quality food he served. His dynamic and friendly personality finds him stopping by your table to ensure you are happy. The amazing deserts made by his beautiful Mother are the perfect ending to a delightful evening! Ciao!

    Food was very good. For the wedge salad,although good, I prefer the traditional one with blue cheese and bacon.

    Not good. Clams were as tough as boot leather. My tortellini was put into the oven to keep "hot"....came out roasted!! Ordered a drink....given to the wrong table 13 minutes later. then the waitress tried to give it to me but I refused it. One bartender for a Saturday night and she couldn't keep up. McDonald's , next door would have been much better. Way, way over priced!!! Done.

    Fabulous service, kind and attentive staff, delicious meals and generous portions. We had an Easter Eve dinner with our son (college student at Haverford) and everything was lovely.

    The food was fair and quality. It was overpriced. The wine was expensive and undrinkable.
