    Best pizza in the area
    Andrea R.

    From the beginning almost 20 years ago, we've been coming here. Sal the owner is incredible The recipes have stayed the same, the food is always hot fresh and delicious. If you need a little twerk or a little tweak and something, it is always accommodated. I love the hometown feel when you walk in everyone says hello and you always know people when you go there, to sit either inside or outside. It's always the neighborhood place to go. If you are in Wellington on Forest Hill Boulevard stop in, grab a slice grab a whole pizza grab a calzone and a salad you will not be disappointed. The crispiness of the slice you pick it up and you fold it and you hear that snap and your mouth just starts to water!

    What's better than a slice of their vegetable pizza?

    Order at the counter and they'll give you your cup and self serve. This is sit where you find a spot. It's worth the pilgrimage. The pizza is wonderful. I loved their house salad. The food was fresh, service attentive and I felt I was back in Manhattan.

    Welcome to Basilico's.

    I usually start off with five stars if I'm pleased but the person took my order and obviously never turned it in so out of the four people in our party, I never got my Lasagna. My wife shared half her pizza with me and my brother in law gave me half his lasagna which was actually perfect. Now, lets start the regular review. My brother in law told me if I like lasagna, this was the place to go. So we took a quick ride from their home. Easy in and out off the main road ti this very modern looking strip mall, then the pizzeria / restaurant. You order at the front counter then they bring the food to your table. When they delivered the three items is when we realized that they never received mine. I should have questioned why they were crossing off items as I was ordering. No harm, no foul... There was plenty of food at the table to go around as their portions are very large. Our appetizer & dinner consisted of: - Garlic knots - Crisp with a warm soft center and plenty of buttery garlic - Mozzarella and Tomato salad - plenty of juicy tomato with delish fresh mozzarella - Lasagna - A delicious blen of wide noodles, meat and sauce. This was really a treat. Great rich-tasty sauce - Eggplant rollatini with ziti Bolognese - .I did not taste but you could see the three large pieces of eggplant in the same rich-tasty sauce and a bog bowl of ziti. (portions are not for the faint hearted here and be prepared to take food home - Pizza with mushroom - delicious thin crust with a very tasty pizza sauce, plenty of cheese and mushrooms. Outside of a rocky start all was very good and I look forward to a return visit to try something new. The Chicken Francaise looked terrific.

    Oh man, the Stromboli sandwiches are like nothing I've had before. So flaky and saucy. Try the eggplant parm!!

    We have been eating the Pizza here like no tomorrow. 8.1 is my score. No Flop, Great sauce, great undercarriage and a really good crisp. Eat it right out of the oven. Don't do a disservice and put it in a box to go. It has become my latest go to spot.

    We came here after seeing the dr in Wellington. My mom was excited to bring us here as she found her new pizza spot. We walked in and got a table which apparently is a Win because it's very hard to get one. We were not greeted by a waiter because you order from the window. However we were given cups for drinks. We ended up ordering garlic knots, cheese pizza, chicken parm with pasta and garlic sticks. And for dessert we split a tiramisu. The garlic knots were good. A little soft for my liking but fresh garlic on top. The garlic sticks were a bit too dry for my liking. The pizza was good. Most of the pieces didn't flop down. Not a huge pizza for the price but it was good. The chicken parm, the first piece was chewy which seemed as if they didn't cook it long enough. Not raw but that chewiness right before it's done. Sauce was a bit sweet which I like. The pasta was pasta. Nothing special. Tiramisu was delicious. The cream was frozen so it gave it a nice texture. Overall, I'd say the ratings of the business is a fair assessment. 4.25. But in Wellington this place is a booming.

    Small place with a few tables. The pizza was good, but definitely could have been hotter. The girls taking orders were friendly, but the young man who brought the pizza to the table seemed disinterested and a little grumpy. I'll have to try it again and see what else they have cooking there. All in all it was a pretty good lunch and I would say give it a try.

    Whoever gives this place anything above a one star, should have their review status revoked…read more Got pizza to go, grabbed a margarita and a cheese. The dough for the pizza was extremely lack luster. There was zero flavor and it was completely under done. If you have ever bought the Pillsbury just add water for pizza dough, that is EXACTLY what this tasted like. I have never had cheese on a pizza that tasted soupy. This pizza was in no way any shape or form of a quality type of pizza let alone had any type of quality ingredients. I am beyond stunned I paid $16 for a large cheese pizza! We did order a $8 salad that did not have the toppings it was supposed to have. This only had lettuce and chopped up tomatoes. The vinaigrette dressing had a weird after taste also. This was not only me eating it, but 4 other people eating/trying it also. When you grab one slice from each and everyone does not want to go back for another slice, what does that say? If you eat here and expect quality good type of pizza, this is NOT going to be your place.

    Located on the outskirts of the Wellington mall, this little cafe is right at the end of a plaza…read more They do serve affordable and tasty pizza. Our waitress was nice and attentive and the restaurant itself was clean. I've been looking for a good Italian sandwich and unfortunately this place isn't it.

The order tracker was especially helpful, it let me know exactly when it was a good time to head to the restaurant to pick up my food. When I arrived, it was a little confusing figuring out where to go because the areas for dine-in and pickup weren't clearly labeled outside. However, once I figured it out, the pickup process was quick and smooth. The pizzas looked amazing, smelled delicious, and tasted just as good. We'll definitely be keeping Ah-beetz on our list for future takeout orders.

    Wow we were sooo excited when a friend recommended the white clam pizza from Ah-Beetz New Haven…read morepizza in Royal Palm Beach. We haven't had our favorite White Clam pizza from Villa Monte's in Old Bethpage NY for almost 5years. You could imagine our excitement to finally find a place that makes it. They have a huge parking lot out front/plenty of free parking. Let me also mention HomeGoods/Marshall's is in the same plaza!! They offer indoor & outdoor seating. The inside was small with a pickup area They also had 2 refrigerators with drink options. They said the wait for a table would be 40 mins so we decided to take it to go. I'm not sure what went wrong that evening but the outcome was extremely disappointing. The white clam pizza was absolutely a HORRIBLE disaster Clams would of been nice It Failed failed failed in so many ways. The pizza was absolutely saturated in a puddle of what looked like water or grease. Seriously, it was loaded loaded with tons of garlic, with a few minced clams (hardly existed) & had absolutely no flavor other then overcooked garlic/ on the charred side flavor (disgustingly Strong) We absolutely could not find the cheese or breadcrumb topping. We also ordered the garlic sticks They were cold & dry They had less garlic than the pizza. One pic is of their advertised pizza they show. Sadly it's not even close to what we thought it would be given The reality speaks for itself. We will not recommend based on what we tried. It was not worth $28.00 without tip We had to throw out the entire order You can be the judge
