I live this place e though they became halah the food is still very good I wish they would get a waitress and the service would be better

It's a nice chill spot in Elmont plenty of seating for two or a group. They have a flatscreen on the wall wide variety on the menu not just Pizza but also Italian dishes. Service was quick and friendly prices were reasonable if you're in the area check them out. read more

This place does not cook the food through at all smh. And not to mention they have very bland customer service. I ordered a pin wheel and asked them to make sure it's cooked inside because I've ordered it before on uber eats and it came uncooked. Once again, a doughy uncooked mess all over again. Literal waste of money. Same thing for the zeppole. Completely uncooked and full of stringy dough. Do better and learn to cook your food through properly so customers aren't eating raw uncooked food. Terrible!! read more

I'm a huge fan of their chicken rolls. It's really gooood. I love their garlic knots. Now... I ordered their upside down pizza. It sounded amazing. This one breaks my heart, it wasn't it. I love my garlic, the sauce was yummy but the pizza itself wasn't to par. It was stale. The shredded mozzarella was okay. This pie has potential so it could be one of those days where I didn't get the best but the pizza can't be in a stale condition. Not sure if it was too much yeast but something didn't go right. I'm staying with 4 stars because this place does hit the spot every time I've gone and gotten my usual. read more

Little hole in the wall pizza place. If you're driving and looking for it, you could definitely miss it. That would be sad. Had a couple of very nice slices here. Cheese to sauce ratio was excellent. Very friendly service and decent prices make me want to come back next time I'm in the area. read more

A Restaurant Which Caters To Your Preferences. I have been ordering from this establishment for quite a while. Their Pizza is absolutely delicious; but I mostly order their Parmesan dishes with spaghetti (garlic & oil). My other love is their wings. The only thing ... I ONLY EAT the flat wings. And, although it's a bit difficult ... Sal tries to accommodate my preference. In so saying ... a Pizzeria DEFINITELY worth it!! read more

A small storefront pizzeria which also serves some Italian entrees. Located in a small strip center. Stopped here for a quick lunch after flying in from Florida. Nice selection of pizzas by the slice. I ordered an all meat slice with sausage, pepperoni, and meatball, very good. My wife tried the Spinach & Ricotta Stromboli, which she really enjoyed. read more

Honestly this is one of the worst places I have ordered from, I ordered chicken franchaise with penne pasta. The chicken didn't have that sour flavor it was very blend. The pasta came with marinara sauce. So I'm asking my self how I was supposed to eat it. The bread for the pasta was hard, the pizza was very soggy and oily, and ordered some zepelines that it tasted like they were made 2 weeks ago. Note for the business owner : you need to do a better job. I'm sorry if I'm harsh on you but I really didn't like your food. read more

Absolutely blown away by the incredible vegan pizza at this local gem! As a mixed vegan and non-vegan family, finding a place that everyone can enjoy is usually a challenge, but Genovese nailed it. Their vegan options are phenomenal -- so much so that even my non-vegan family was raving about how delicious it was. And the customer service from ordering to delivery was so nice. Whether you're vegan or not, this place is a must-visit for anyone who loves amazing pizza! Thanks again Allison aka "Barbara Cohen" lol read more

Wow! - Found this "Hole in the Wall" - accidentally! If you don't pay careful attention - you will pass this gem of a place. Owner and staff are extremely family oriented and super friendly. "The Customer" - "Me" was treated so respectfully and kindly. But, enough of this! - Grandma Pizza may possibly be the best I've ever had. Sauce is truly to die for. Please check out some of the pictures that I snapped; - will give you an idea of things. Visited early this afternoon - popped in for a few slices and couldn't resist; I had to take two "Grandmas" home with me. Of course my wife caught me and she ate one of the and truly loved it as well. Would consider popping back in and coming into the back dining room to try a dinner. I'm wondering how their Eggplant Parmesan is. If they use the same sauce, it could potentially be off the chart. This is the deal: So many pizza places in the area to chose from and so many of them are garbage. I truly have discovered a hidden gem this afternoon. Excellent! Located in Valley Stream, Long Island - nearby the Elmont border; not to far from Queens; A touch off "The Beaten Path" - but super easy to find if you pay attention. This is truly an "Old School" Italian place with "Real Deal" pizza makers. They had some great music playing in the background as well. Everyone working there was super chill and kind. I felt like I was a part of my very own neighborhood pizzeria. A+ Hospitality goes a long way. I hope this place never changes. Doubt they will! Check it out! - Don't waste your time with the regular pizza! Proceed directly to the Grandma - OMG - AMAZING! read more

Perfect go to pizza! Fresh. Extremely friendly staff. The neighborhood loves them ! I've tried pizza, pasta and seafood dishes. I haven't been disappointed yet. They run specials during the week. You have to check the signs outside. read more

I've ordered from here a few times and usually their food is really good but the last two times you guys have been slacking. I ordered the Frutta di Mare witch is shrimp, claims, mussels with calamari over your choice of pasta. I chose the linguine now this dish was very good but they over cooked the linguine you can't over cook pasta it literally ruined the meal. That is the second time you've done that please stop it's very disappointing. My man ordered a slice of pizza witch was pretty good and the chicken parmigiana he said that was good. Overall their food is good I'll probably order from them again but if they over cook my pasta again I think I'll have to rethink ordering from them again. read more

Love this place! I started coming here a few months ago and its now become one of my favorite pizzerias. It has the feel of an old school pizzeria right down to the 60's/70's hits playing over the speakers. You can come in and pick up a slice to go or sit in the back where you can order anything from pizza, chicken parm, sausage and peppers, etc. The staff is great and the pizza is even better. I don't know whats in their sauce, but whatever it is has made me a regular customer! Service - 4.25 Food - 4.25 Decor - 3.75 Price - $12 pp read more

This place is really a sad excuse for a pizza shop. I'm really surprised they're still running to begin with. The quality of their pizza is subpar in comparison to nearby competition. They used to be better, but I'm not sure what happened. Their garlic knots are decent but after a recent order I picked up garlic knots that weren't even coated in garlic. Literally plain, knotted bread. If you order from here your best bet would be to order from their pasta menu. Aside from that everything else pretty much sucks. read more

My brother ordered lasagna & garlic knots from this restaurant. Unfortunately it seems it was near closing time because they sent what looks like half an order of lasagna & half of an Italian bread (to make the box heavy?) Taste okay but the presentation left a bad taste read more

The staff at this place is always so nice and I love to support my community restaurants but man their food need some work. I dont know what happened, I wonder if they changed chefs. The pasta is usually over cooked now and the meat lacks seasoning. The cesar salad should come with shaved or even shredded parmesan cheese not the grated to granuals cheese that they sprinkle on time. The garlic knots and zeppoli's are very good. read more

Easy to find, not far from the highway. Parking is available. Really good food, good service. You won't be disappointed.

Amazing. Great neighborhood pizzeria that needs to stay open! Not to mention the attack on small business right now it's important more than ever to support them right now. So with that being said, their sugar knots, garlic knots are a must with every and any order. Their pizzas are great. From the plain ole slice to the speciality ones. Amazing! read more

I prefer to call ahead whenever I'm getting pizza b/c I hate waiting (lol). I called ahead and ordered one large pie. He told me about 15-20 minutes. Unfortunately I got caught up and make it there in 45 minutes. They already gave away my pie. I was a bit annoyed bc now I had to wait. But it got me thinking: I got here late so yes I understand they didn't want to give me a cold pie but I wasn't even given the option. When they took my order they also took my number but I never got a call to see if I was going to be late. Anyway, after waiting for the 15 minutes, I got my pie and it was great! read more

I order one regular pie. Pizza is good but too pricy with size of the pizza . It was large pizza with $17.95

I ordered through seamless to try this place out. It was listed as new so I decided to order for my family. It came on time which was a plus. When I opened the box the pizza was very greasy but we sometimes that's expected. We also ordered chicken alfredo. The alfredo was a little bland but ok. Not 20 mins went by and my family of 4 were fighting for the bathroom. All night long stomach pains and a bad case of being in the bathroom sick. I contacted seamless because I couldn't get through to the restaurant. I was told they didn't want to give me a refund. I spent $40 and had to throw out the rest of the food. It's a shame that you don't care about families that order from your restaurant. I also blog on different websites and I will make sure to spread the word. Don't EAT HERE. You will get sick. read more
