Landed here for dinner after a 3 day drive through the US. We lucky got sat in Nancy's section and what a sweet heart! Give this woman a raise. We ordered with our eyes! What else can could you do when you have been stuck in the car for 9 hours? Started with the samplers, mozzarella sticks, onion rings and fried mushrooms. Nothing to rave about here except that the marinara was delicious! A banger was the 4 square cheese pizza. That was some yummy pie. Hubby ordered the chicken pesto Alfredo and that was some flavors! By this time I'm stuffed like a calzone, but took a couple bites into my veal parmesan and Holy shit i wish I would have saved the room for that. Both meals came with salads. I recommend the raspberry vinaigrette, the parmeans dressing and the house italian. Can't wait to visit this place again!

My favorite Italian in all of Broome County! You MUST order their pizza, as well as their fettuccine alfredo (not pictured here). The fresh bread they bring at the start of the meal is an added bonus! LOVE Cortese so much!

This restaurant was recommended to me while in Binghamton on business due to its long legacy in town. Food was delicious and sitting on the patio was extra nice. Nicely landscaped and lots of flowering plants. I was happy to discover the sauce wasn’t a sweet sauce, and had great flavor. The house Italian dressing was a hit for me because it had a nice zing of vinegar. Clams were tender and prepared perfectly.

The best Italian food I’ve ever had! My husband grew up coming here and we made the 2 hour drive to come for dinner. I’m obsessed. The history, the service, the atmosphere and THE FOOD. Absolute perfection. Thank you to our server Nicole who was AMAZING and so pleasant! Our compliments to the chef..DELICIOUS!

Such a fantastic establishment. If you love the old school restaurants that serve freshly made quality, delicious food with exceptional service then you will love Cortese’s. Must try the wings - crispy, flavorful and meaty. The Cortese pizza is square and loaded with toppings. The crust is light, yet handles the task of holding the toppings together.
Great atmosphere, service, drinks and food. Highly recommended.
