best place to go! – everything here is great. i specially love their vegetarian pizza - no sauce no cheese! i know it doesnt really sound good but wait til you try it! their tucci's is also amazing (though it will really stink up your car if you take some home!) their ravioli is the best ravioli ever! we had lunch here a few weeks ago for a friend's bday and she was so glad she was introduced to this place! for a fraction of what you pay when you go to those popular italian chains, this is the way to go! we usually have cash... read more
Great food, large portions – I've been going here for a few years now, and have never been disappointed! I've taken friends and they really enjoy it. my usual is the spicy tomato with angel hair pasta and some bianca... YUM!!
Great Family Pizza restaurant... Old Timey and charming – So many great pies are offered. I'm usually a meat eater when it comes to pizza but they have so many selections that are just as intriguing without meat. Good service and usually not too crowded if you don't go on a Saturday night. Never ordered just a single slice. Always went with the whole pie and only been for dinner so maybe the lunch time experience is different. I would think ordering a whole pizza pie would always taste better than just getting a slice unless... read more
3 strikes, you're out! – Gave them 3 honest tries before writing this review. 1. On a Friday night when they were busy we (and another family) tried to get the attention from someone to get our names on a list or to be seated. After 5 minutes of being ignored, we simply left. 2. Called the next day for take out, when we arrived to pick up 2 pizzas, the place was empty, and the woman could not be bothered to do her job. It was "can you help me?" instead of "how can I help you." Trying to get our pizzas, red peppers, etc. we w... read more
Slices are sub par – I haven't ordered a sit-down meal here so I express no opinion on the matter. However, I can't imagine that it'd be very good. The pizza by the slice is pretty awful. After waiting about 20 minutes I was served a cold slice of pie with a big pile of unmelted cheese in the center. The crust was spongey and bland. The sauce was ridiculously sweet and the toppings were (again) cold. No thanks...
Not the best pizza, not the worst – If you like garlic in your sauce, you'll love this place. The pepperoni was good, but I didn't like the cheese they used. The crust was just okay, definitely not the thin "New York" style pizza, but the pizza did fold a bit.
LOVE THIS PLACE – Delicious food, friendly service...stromboli is to DIE FOR. Great neighborhood joint, try to take out here at least once a week. GREAT.
pasadena pizza in homey atmosphere – get there early or you'll be waiting. our first time there. no frills, quick, not quite new york, but still pretty good. would definitely go back. a jovial atmosphere.
Weeknight perfection with pizza and a salad. – I've been here a few times now and every experience has been a gastronomical delight. The pizzas are excellent, oozing with cheese, chrused garlic, and loads of fresh toppings. I recommend the special sauce (can't remember the name) instead of traditional marinara. Also, don't miss the garlic knots or house salad with black olive vinaigrette - both delish. The ambiance and the service are equally enjoyable. Jolly italian men cram into a hole-in-th wall joint to serve the crowded... read more
