    Buffalo Chicken and Sicilian slice
    Andrei L.

    I live pretty close by Cafe Gino's in Westbury and have been here 2-3 times for pizza over the past year. The place is pretty well lit and spacious, with a bunch of tables for casual eating and more on the other side for table service. It's definitely more modern looking and clean feeling than Alfredo's down the road. However, I have to say that the pizza I've had there has been pretty poor by typical Long Island standards. I came in recently with a friend and got a buffalo chicken slice and Sicilian slice. Along with a soda, the meal came out to around $10 (sorry, can't remember the exact amount). The pizza was pretty bad though. Maybe it was because we came in the late evening on a Sunday night, but even then I'd expect a lot better. If you look at my picture, you can see that my buffalo chicken slice doesn't have many pieces of chicken on it at all. A good slice should be covered with chicken in my book. It thus wasn't very filling as well. The Sicilian slice tasted a bit stale and also wasn't very thick. So I was still hungry after I finished. Thus I was disappointed by my visit to Cafe Gino's. For what you get, it is expensive and the quality is lacking. It isn't an utter horror show to warrant a one star rating, but it could be much, much better.

    Garlic Knots - yes, they have them here . . . but as good as they look, they lack that garlic punch we all crave in a good knot . . .

    Stopped by this place literally minutes after going to Toskana Pizzeria, which is just a few blocks south. Tale of the tape: Garlic Knots Contrary to the other reviews for this place, they do have garlic knots here. Perhaps garlic sticks are served if you dine in. At any rate the dough is somewhat light, but so is the garlic flavor. Just like at Toskano, they need to step up their garlic game, on a menu item that has garlic in its name! Penne ala Vodka Slice I was unable to get a cup of vodka sauce, as I was told it was made to order, but they did have almost a whole pie of penne ala vodka left in the case. What struck me first was how crispy the crust was - that crisp was done proper, as was the cheese atop the penne. However, the vodka sauce itself was in somewhat short supply. A bit more would have made for a better taste experience. From what I could tell, the vodka sauce itself was a little bit above ok. It had some flavor, but in my opinion it could have a bit more. If it had the flavor to match the crispiness of the crust, it would have been an amazing, wining combination.

    Went to Gino's for dinner and couldn't be more satisfied with the speedy service and delicious food! The penne alla vodka was perfect

    Margherita slice
    Angelo B.

    Just as good as the last time I was here(10+ years ago when I lived in the area) they had recently opened a bigger pizzeria, and I have to say...10+ years later and the place still looks brand new. The margherita alive was very good, and my son enjoyed the pepperoni. Would be my go to pizza place if I still lived in the area.

    Thin crust... was ok

On Pi Day celebrated annually on March 14, I ordered from Toskana Pizzeria Restaurant directly through the website: http://www.ToskanaPizzaToGo.com/. The system was very easy to use. I was able to choose a specific time for pickup. I arrived at Toskana Pizzeria Restaurant at my pickup time and just had to wait a few minutes for my order to be ready. Staff were friendly. I ordered Mozzarella Sticks (6) for $11.95, Country Style Greek Salad (small) for $14.95, and the 14" Toskana Special Pizza for $24.95. There is a credit card processing fee. The mozzarella sticks were crispy and the marinara sauce was very good. I enjoyed the Country Style Greek Salad. The 14" Toskana Special Pizza had mushrooms, peppers, onions, pepperoni, and sausage. It had very good flavor and fresh ingredients. They also included a complimentary bag of bread which was nice and warm. Toskana Pizzeria Restaurant is my new to go to for an Italian meal.

The broccoli slice seemed like it was going to fall apart but it held together very well, it was also very light in weight but fluffy as can be. I was amazed but found it was the least of the two. Still enjoyable, I finished it. The sausage and peppers, AMAZINGLY delicious! Just enough sauce to keep it moist. Also not a very heavy slice yet really tasty.
