Along came Craig Mosmen and Mike Cassano, two University of Delaware grads with degrees in 'Great Pizza'. Soon they dreamt up an idea... "Manayunk needs a gourmet pizza cafe'! But hey, let's serve fresh and exciting salads too! " From there, a seed was planted. (Or, shall we say, a dough-ball was formed?) After months of hard work, and a little practice making all those great pizza topping, salad-spinning, mouth-watering combinations come alive, Mike and Craig celebrated thier grand opening on September 13th, 2003. Together with Jack Johnson on the stereo, a life-size tomato-girl running amuck, and friends and family helping behind the counter, opening day went off without a hitch. Craig and Mike haven't looked back since. (Have they had the chance?) Now, their "little pizza shop in Manayunk" has developed into "That great cafe' on Main Street". Passers-by no longer grumble, "Huh? The Couch Potato?"....oooh no...they proclaim at the top of their lungs "I must have Nutty Chicken Pizza from The Couch Tomato, or I might die!"

I think Couch Tomato Cafe' has a pizza menu among the best places I have seen. They have yet to include a tomato pie, but I am sure that it will be great, if/when they do. So, please do.

The BEST NY style (I know I'm from NY.) pizza in Philly & the Gourmet Salads are delicious. Great for lunch or dinner at home & catering an event.

My husband Bob and I think that Craig and Mike really do a super job- we wouldn't think of eating anywhere else when we're in Manayunk. Keep up the good work!.

One of my favorite places in the whole city, and arguably the best pizza around! If you like deep dish, don't go here.. but if you like new york style, twirl in the air, rip apart the crust with your teeth style (like us), it's the place to be.
Oh, and the salad toppings were very fresh when we tried their salads. The place gets busy, so that is the only downside, but it's worth the wait in my opinion.

I am passionate about their pizza AND SALADS. I overdose on food from the tomato just about every week day. Definitely a top philly restaurant.
