Welcome to Cafe Scalessa
We serve old-school Italian food the way it's supposed to taste.
Fresh, homemade, and straight from the heart. Chef Donnie Scalessa's been doing this since 2002, bringing South Philly tradition to Delaware with award-winning meatballs, handmade pasta, and Sunday gravy that simmers all day. Everything's made in-house daily, from our baseball-sized meatballs to our gnocchi. Come for dinner, stay for the vibe. Sinatra on the speakers, Godfather on the TVs, and on weekends we turn up the music and spin the disco ball. It's Italian comfort food done right, where you're not just a customer, you're family.
