    Always amazing food and service. I had the pleasure of dining in at the restaurant this evening, and as always it was incredible. My friend and I both chose pasta dishes that did not disappoint! From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel like family. Keep up the excellent work!

    The pizza here was ok, but I didn't really care for the service. I felt like they really didn't want me to buy anything. I had to ask for a menu, I wasn't ask did I need help or if I wanted anything because I was totally being ignored. Now when I'm with my children I try not to let them notice me get upset, and besides we were really hungry and there was not alot of options in this area. So I choose to buy from here.
    I can tell from the moment that we walked in to this place, I got the colored vibe. If you ever experience this, then you know the vibe I'm speaking of. Either case I was polite, order my pizza and sat down and waited for our pizza to be made. They had tables for you to sit down in the back if you wanted to dine, but I wasn't ask that, because like I said they acted as they did not want me there. While I was there, I asked for a slice of thier grandmas pizza. I wish I had ordered a whole pie of that one instead because it was probably one of the best slices I had but they wouldn't know that due to the behavior of the staff. Anyway I paid and left, but before I did one of the waiters seemed to be annoyed because of us being there to long, I don't know what his problem was, because he passed the spices over to me as to say hurry up, while he was standing at the counter waiting for what reason I don't know. Then he came outside and spoke rudely to my friend and her children because one of them was rocking in the chair. REALLY! There was just a whole bunch of other teens before us hanging out in front of their storefront, acting a fool, making a bunch of noise in such a quiet area, and left a mess when they left and you come outside to complain about a boy just moving around in a chair. Hmm! OK! Time to go. I see exactly what this is.

    I WILL NOT EVER RETURN HERE AGAIN!

    I never let my kids once see what was happening because "HATE" is taught and I refuse to teach them anything like that because of people's ignorance. They are aware of the way people actions may be, but I'm showing them how they should react to it. Im just happy my husband wasn't with us because he wouldn't have responded the way I did, I'm a lil more patient and after all they still took my Green, (Money) a color everyone seems to like or have no problem with. Next time I'm just gonna stick with the Seven Eleven they had next door, I'm sure I could of found something to eat there and besides the service there was way better, I forgot to do a check-in there.

    Everything here is hands down authentic. The GRANDMA SLICE IS THE BOMB!!! I came here with a friend and I was skeptical considering I'm from Brooklyn and my pizza/sauce expectations are high as the sky but this place delivered..AUTHENTIC ITALIANS cooking the real deal Italian food!! Baked ziti with extra mozzarella is INSANE. Lets leave it at that. If I wasn't on a diet I would easily consume 3 trays. The staff is excellent and go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. Everything from the espresso to the cappuccino is amazing. Very good spot for REAL DEAL ITALIAN FOOD. Im telling you, you are going to thank me later. I really miss small authentic Italian food places like this in Brooklyn. Free parking, reasonable prices.. GO NOW!!

    THE GARLIC KNOTS ARE ADDICTING, and I can eat an easy 15 of them. You have been WARNED.

    Wow it's good. The Grandmas is every bit as good as everyone is raving about. There's garlic in it.  All the pizza sauces here are top notch. I gotta try a chicken parm dinner from here.  Update: I did; it was amazing. It's old Italian men with accents baking and taking orders, And the young guys they're passing the torch to.  I wonder which of these grey haired artisans owns this cash cow.  

    Been on a local pizza quest the past few weeks.  This is the best in north queens so far. So good I stopped wandering and come here once a week

    Rocco and staff very friendly the food is fantastic, his pizzia's are big sometimes to big to fit in the box, keep up the good work Rocco.
