I order from Friendlier Restaurant for the past two years, almost once a week and every single time the food is absolutely delicious! I've order so many different types of foods and every single dish is fresh, tasty and so similar to the Italian foods I grew up eating! The owner Vito is a sweetheart! Even at his busiest hrs he'll take the time to answer any questions I may have! It is my favorite restaurant out of all that I've ordered from & that's saying a lot!!! Love this place. Today I had sausage and peppers hero & broccoli rabe! Fresh, delicious and huge portions! read more

I live in North Carolina, but I have an uncle in Far Rockaway and I also cover New York for my job. I was there for both and was able to have a meeting here. I've also taken my husband and uncle here for dinner. We absolutely love this restaurant. The service is superb. The food is excellent, authentic Italian cuisine. The wine selection and cocktails are amazing also. You really only need one cocktail. Lol. But I absolutely love this place. A lot of locals seem to go there and there was a line almost out the door waiting for Pizza. But when you go past that and into the dining area, it is a very upscale feel with very attentive staff. read more

The food , service and ambience is astounding. My husband and I have always had great food and the staff is very friendly and attentive.

Had to stop in on a Saturday evening headed back to Westchester form a day with family in Atlantic/Long Beach. Walked in with the family and we were greeted by a friendly fella (seemed to be the owner) who found us table in the full busy dining room. Service was friendly and helpful and quick considering how busy the place was! We stuck to pizzettes (regular and cauliflower crusts) and salads and we didn't leave anything on our plates. When the weather cools down will definitely return for "heavier" fare. I was checking out the tables around us and everything looked delish and everyone looked happy! read more

Ok for a Pizza, or a small bite, but for a nice dinner, Id go elsewhere. PS they are very crowed and Noisy on weekends.

prices a bit high on the average food ok but 6.50 for a slice of pizza ..even in the city same slice or Hewlett 4.50-5 buy nice people in a tough very religious neighborhood.. read more

Excellent pizza and meals and friendly service! You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu!

Great pizza place which has become our go to take out pizza place in Woodmere. I can't wait to eat in as the restaurant menu looks devious!

If you want GREAT Pizza, this is where to get it. A really nice and Friendly place with expert service and a place that won;t make your wallet empty. The Pizza is the best that you can get. read more

Went here with a friend for the first time to have lunch. I had the orecchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe. Fantastic. I ve had this dish at other restaurants many times but this was the best. Simply delicious. I will certainly be back soon. Two small negatives. The price for lunch was a bit on the high side at $22 for this dish. Secondly, it would be nice if they served Italian bread rather than than the little squares of baked dough which are really not that appealing. read more

We got lunch delivered and we went in 2 days later to dine in. The food is basically the standard American Italian fare, nothing super special. However, I will say that the octopus was very tender and had good flavor. read more

First of all I never review. But I'm so disappointed so just had to. Ordered pie of pizza half Hawaiian. He said 10 min which I thought was strange. Went to pick it up and was $30. Got home to find out that they didn't even warm up the pizza and would'nt be surprised if it was yesterday's pizza. Will never order from them again and will stick to Marinaras. Put a star bc apparently u can't review without any stars! read more

The Pizza used to be great and special, but it has changed, now it only "Just OK". But nothing special. Not worth the trip, from home. It's only a neighborhood place like hundreds of others. read more

Excellent pizza and the food is always top notch! Never had a bad experience at Friendlier!

I only order the special salad (made with lettuce, tomato, onion, pimento, genoa salami & provolone cheese) from here. It's great if you're looking for a salad on the heartier side possibly as an entrée. I just wish they didn't put so much iceberg lettuce in there. I prefer take out...the restaurant doesn't provide the best ambiance. read more

Friendlier - special salad - Pizza Near Me - Woodmere, New York

This place has been a staple in woodmere forever. I've been eating there pizza all throughout my childhood to adulthood and it used to be amazing but now the crust is too thin. It's like they put topping on a slice of paper. I don't know what they have going on or if they have a new guy making pizza but they need to make them thicker. read more

The food is always tasty. My husband and I still dine in even though we no longer leave in the area. A shoutout to Henry our favorite waiter. read more

Came here for a rehearsal dinner. They have a good amount of space. The food was pretty tasty. Loved the burrata & prosciutto. The pizza was very thin crusted but was ok. I wouldn't get that one only if I was hungry though. The penne alla vodka and seafood dish was really good as well. Staff was friendly. read more

I'm not going to review any one appetizer, or dinner here. The fact is that the kitchen here is on point with everything they do. They know Italian cuisine, and they knock it out of the park always in-terms of flavor, consistency, doneness, and presentation. For a local Five Towns Pizza/restaurant joint...... fuhgeddaboudit!! For a Nassau County Pizza/restaurant joint....... fuhgeddaboudit!!! Do they represent top of the line New York City Pizza, Italian cuisine.........hey fuhgeddaboudit!! The management and wait staff team are top notch too! read more

My husband loves their pizza. They don't skimp on the toppings and the sauce has just the right amount of sweet and savory flavor to it. Happy they're on Door Dash. read more

Review Date: October 31, 2013 So I didn't visit the restaurant, I ordered take out from them on Halloween. Either everyone orders a pizza on Halloween or this place just likes to take forever with their delivery. I placed my order at 7 PM while I was working the night shift and was told the order would arrive in 35 - 40 minutes. I ordered a pie so I could have a couple of slices on my break and I could share some with my co-workers if they wanted any. The only reason I ordered from them was because the pizza place was too busy and wouldn't take my order. I was fine waiting 35 to 40 minutes but I ended up getting my pizza an hour and ten minutes later. I know this pizza didn't come from Little Italy but from merely a few blocks away so I don't know what took them so long to make a simple cheese pie delivery. What the hell friendlier?!?! So the pizza itself is worth three stars. It's your average slice, not too terrible but nothing absolutely memorable either. But because delivery took so long I'm sorry I have to give it two stars. The price wasn't all that bad for a pie, I don't know why I tipped the delivery guy $2, I should have given him nothing but I feel bad about doing that. So I won't ever order from here again, or even step foot in the place because of the unreasonably long delivery time. I could get 35 to 40 minutes but when it turns into an hour and ten minutes that's just ludicrous! read more

Best Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza I have ever had. Their pizza is better than some of pizzeria in Manhattan that were proclaimed to be the best in the world, price wise and taste wise. Can't really comments on the other dishes since I never had them. read more

The pizza was fresh and yummy! It came SUPER quick. And honored their free dessert coupon. Definitely would order again

We had an amazing dinner! All of the employees were wearing masks and social distancing was well established. There was an outdoor eating area also. Our service was incredible. The food was top notch. Definitely will visit again when in town. read more

Friendlier - Tiramisu - Pizza Near Me - Woodmere, New York

Been eating here for 40 years. I moved down south now, but still make it a point to go there when I come to town. LOVE this place.

Baked clams were fishy. Pescatore was half a pound of calamari and two shrimp and four small clams and no mussels. Waiter took our order and we never saw him again read more

over all it is a good place to get some fast food and as well as to seat in! However the food is sometimes not so fresh at all times. Sometimes when you come it's always as quite place as you would want it to be. I don't get any other pizza pie expect for regular because that's the only one that they know how to make. read more

I wouldn't even give them one star if I didn't have to. Horrible restaurant ! I ordered with my office and the owner sent the wrong meal and over charged us we called back and he told me I should have gotten my order correct and hung up on me. They returned with a new meal asking for the old one back and told us to never order from there again. Never again very unprofessional. read more

I'm visiting my parents from Tucson Arizona. My parents eat out every night since it an amazing way for them to get out. I'm visiting for 11 days, after visiting 2 other restaurants, I asked why go anywhere else? Friendlier makes your meal to order. The food and service is outstanding! Thank you Friendlier for fantastic food and service! See you for Mother's Day and again when I return! read more

This is a very nice neighborhood Italian restaurant and pizzeria. All the food tastes home-cooked, is very reasonably priced, and the service is very pleasant. My 89-year-old grandmother lives nearby and has been coming here for years. The owner and other workers all know her by name and treat her like family. The front room is the pizzeria, and there's a nicer dining room in the back. It's good for groups of 6-10, as they have several round tables, helping to make sure that everyone can communicate with ease. Nothing beats a big round table. From fried calamari to Caesar salad to veal parm and pasta, you can't go wrong, no matter what you order. Save room for dessert, too. Grandma loves the tartufo, which is ice cream in a chocolate shell with whipped cream on top. Yum! I don't really have a choice about whether or not I will go back, as Grandma will insist on it, but I don't mind. They really are "friendlier" there, and that's what Italian food is all about! Cin Cin! read more
