    Really really good employees. The store is nice and cool and it's very clean. The pizza is also so damn good. I definitely recommend it's the best place

    Lunch special: one topping

    My husband and I love to come here for the lunch special! The food, service and atmosphere is truly a treat. The main guy even gave me a drink. We will continue to recommend this spot.

    If you love Formaggio Pizza Express as much as I do, you will love their new second location on Bass Lake Road in El Dorado Hills. Formaggio has become my favorite pizza place because the sauce is so delicious, the toppings are fresh, and the seasonings are just right. And it is all homemade... nothing out of a can or jar. Ever! I actually know a couple of the secret seasonings used. But if I told you I would have to kill you :-). The owners of Formaggio Pizza Express are stand-up guys who want to provide the best experience with their food offerings and wonderful, friendly, personal customer service. Some of the best customer service I have ever received. Yesterday was the opening of the new location. Can you say lights, camera, action! There were plenty of Italian "eats" coming out of the ovens and many people enjoying it all. And believe me, there are even more food items available in addition to the signature pizzas. And even some reflecting their Armenian heritage. Can you say yum! It is definitely worth a trip to check out their new endeavor and bigger space for Formaggio Pizza Express. We die-hard fans of Formaggio know how fantastic it is. The best in El Dorado Hills and beyond! Yelp friends Joe Y. and Lillian W.,....... you are going to love this new Formaggio Pizza Express location! Congratulations, Steve, Jack, and George! I know all your food is made with love.

    Excellent customer service, friendly smiling staff, and excellent food! The place is small and mainly for takeout, but they do have some seating. I think it may be seats about a dozen give or take. The sauce choices are excellent, they have vegan cheese options, the dough is vegan, and even fries. I enjoy going there for dining as they don't play loud music if any music at all so it's very nice and quiet. and a nice location, but close to the freeway. Oh, the very best part is they have calzones done right! (Soft dough , not overdone, large enough if you're hungry or want left overs, braided edge and wrapped in foil if to-go to stay warm)

I went back two weeks later to double check they had fixed the machine so that wouldn't happen again to any other kids. Good news, they had fixed it! They also offered my family a free night of dinner and drinks which I thought was the right thing to do and good customer serivce. That is good customer service, and they just won over a customer. They have a great vibe in the place with outdoor seating in the shade and ample indoor seating and would be good for a team party, plus a few video games for the kids. They have a great selection of beer, I was impressed with the vast selection for a pizzeria. As far as the food - First off their WINGS were amazing (bone-in, garlic flavor), they had a crispy exterior with juicy interior and delicious sauce. I would go back just for the wings. The cheesy bread was OK, just a little bland, seemed like just cheese & bread, could have used some herbs, garlic butter, something. The pizza was good but wasn't extraordinary. We had the Mediterranean with Pesto sauce; Waikiki; El Dorado; and Cheese. Our favorite was the Waikiki which was basically Hawaiian with the BBQ sauce and garlic sauce, the garlic base sauce was amazing and super flavorful, plus the bacon was a nice touch. The others were just a little bland despite having great toppings like a few meats, bacon, etc., and the pesto sauce was totally lacking on the Mediterranean, could barely taste it; in sum they were just kinda bland and needed more flavor or more sauce. Next time I'll ask about making the pizza more flavorful or maybe adding extra sauce. I'd go back just for the wings, they were that good. Also for the the Waikiki, beer selection, and the customer service. Again appreciate you guys taking care of my family and son after his injury. We'll definitely be back and I'd encourage others to try it out and support a local small business.

The Buffalo Chicken salad was well spices and great for toppings, fresh! For the kids - Buffalo Chicken Sandwich was good, chicken is tender and sauce is great. Maybe a little less slaw per my kiddo but he is a kiddo..!! Pete's Brewhouse Burger, was cooked well... juicy and ample sized... fries with both and they are too notch, fresh, hot, decent portions. And a small build your own pizza! The pizza dough tastes fresh, medium thick, and good number of toppings too. Service was attentive and patient with indecisive child. Accurate about timing so we knew we would be out in time for our movie. Waitress checked back in on us several times but didn't hover and let us add to order later when one kiddo couldn't figure it out - thanks for that! Ambiance is nice. Quiet enough, music playing old songs that are familiar. TVs with captions that aren't overwhelming. The restaurant is clean and well lit but not overly bright. Like the vibe.

    Stopped in at 11:30am to pick up a to-go salad bar for lunch…read more I noticed the lettuce was very low, and another patron was putting some salad they had dropped on the counter back in the tray, so before I ordered I told the cashier, Jake, "looks like we are going to need some more lettuce". He agreed, stating they had been very busy. I paid for my salad and asked if he could replenish the nearly empty, and now tainted lettuce, to which he responded, "I have 3 pizzas to make first, then I will make more salad". There was already another female employee in back making pizzas. He is front of house and the salad bar is his responsibility. Are you kidding me? Its lettuce. It's a salad to go. You are required ZERO effort other than to put some lettuce in the bin! I asked for a refund, rather than wait for him to make several pizzas to which he seemed completely pissed about. Then he said he would just "void" my ticket. All he did was write "void" on the ticket. No attempt to actually refund my purchase. How this place stays open baffles me. People like Jake have no place in customer service, and you can see from other reviews, this is a common theme at this location.

I ordered the Rosa New York style with gluten free cauliflower crust and it has delicious toppings, but the gluten free cauliflower crust is not the best I've had. It is on a more dense side, I wish it was just a bit more crispy on the bottom. The crust is definitely crispy. My boyfriend loves his NY American Combo, especially the fresh grape tomatoes/ the different colored kind! Pies were piping hot and still hot after a 15 minute drive home. Perfect amount of toppings, they did not skimp on the cheese or sauce either. Cauliflower crust was an additional $5. Pizzas came out to a total of $65 or so, quite expensive. They have options to buy by the slice, so you can try all their different options and see what is your favorite! They have New York style, Chicago style and Detroit style.

    Visited for the first time to celebrate a birthday. We went on a weekday evening and it was quiet…read more We started with the bruschetta appetizer. The flavor was good, but the tomatoes were served quite cold. I think it would have been better if they had at least been room temperature. We both ordered the Chicken Parmigiana with bucatini. The portion size was large, which was nice considering the dish is $32. The chicken was tender and crispy. It was also my first time trying bucatini, and I enjoyed it. I had no idea hollow noodle pasta existed, so that was a fun surprise. I was only able to eat about half of the dish, but it made for good leftovers the next day for lunch. Overall, the food was fine but nothing especially memorable. When I made the reservation through Resy, I selected that we were celebrating a birthday. There was a handwritten birthday card at the table, which was a nice touch. At the end of the meal, we told our waitress we were too full and didn't want any dessert. Despite that, she still brought out a small tiramisu with a candle. I thought it was a nice gesture and assumed it was complimentary, so I was surprised to see a $10 charge on the bill. I wasn't sure if that's standard at some restaurants when you note a birthday on the reservation, but it was my first time experiencing that. I briefly considered asking about it, but it felt awkward in the moment, so I just paid for it and didn't make an issue of it. Since she had already brought it out for us, I did force myself to eat a few bites. The tiramisu itself was soggy, and I also didn't like that it had chocolate syrup on top, which felt a bit unusual to me since I've never had tiramisu served that way before. Overall, we had a pleasant dinner and service was good, but for the price, the food was just okay.
