I really like this restaurant, have never eaten in but takeout is always the correct order and prompt. The staff is very friendly both on the phone and while paying. Today I ordered the cheese ravioli which is a very generous portion, also the cheese filling is abundant. Minestrone soup is a tomato based broth but nice and filling because of the noodles and beans. Fettuccine Alfredo is very creamy and not oily which can be a problem do to the cream sauce. The chicken breast sandwich is a generous portion as well. Next time I'm in the area I will definitely return. read more

Great food and large portions! We had 2 plates and a small pizza and we probably should have split it up more amongst the 4 of us (only order 2 items). Unfortunately we were traveling in town, so we were not able to use the leftovers for another meal. read more

This is a small shop in a strip center in a lovely old Florida town. The crowd seemed very comfortable leading me to believe this was a regular spot for their weekly dining. The portions were large, even the side salad that came with the entrees. I was pleased they offer a low fat pizza (no cheese) with the most tasty and delicate hand tossed crust, which they made very thin at my request. My husband had the shrimp fettuccini alfredo. The shrimp was prepared perfectly...very tender and again huge! read more

Used to love this place but a few months ago they dramatically increased their prices. Its a neighborhood place but almost $20.00 for chicken alfredo is a little too much. Last time we went, the pizza was burnt and the mushrooms on the salad were brown. Not sure that we will be going back anytime soon :( read more

My family loves this place we are from New England and we are pizza picky. Our waitress was super nice also and it's very clean.

Found them on Yelp while staying in Ormond Beach. Excellent pizza, good New York style taste. Fresh ingredients, Moderate prices I would highly recommend read more

Worst pizza I've had. And spaghetti was nothing more than a bottle of store bought spaghetti sauce. Not impressed.

This place really does have some amazing pizza and calzones!!!! it looks like a little mom and pop restaurant but you can tell they have some quality ingredients in the back. read more

We were only in town for 6 nights but ate here twice. So good! We had the meat combo pizza first & the next night we split an order of spaghetti with 2 giant meatballs. Everyone was very friendly and it was obvious that this is a favorite spot for locals too. read more

This NYC girl has just had what I believe is the BEST pizza I've ever had. If you are in the Ormond Beach area (or anywhere in Florida for that matter, lol) come eat here! Pies are personal size to large, made with the freshest of ingredients, with a pillowy crust that has a delicate crack when you bite into it with a hint of olive oil. I got the Mona Lisa (broccoli, garlic, oil, mozz) with crumbled sausage added. Heavenly!! Service was friendly and attentive. Pies are made to order, but the bit of a wait is totally worth it. In addition to pizza, there is a pretty extensive menu of apps, pastas and salads, plus a kid's menu. Today I only had eyes for pizza but if what I had was any indication, the rest of the food should be delicious. Eat. Here. NOW. read more

Great authentic Italian food in a cozy atmosphere. The Feta salad is big enough y o share and tastes great with the balsamic dressing! Ask for Carrie when you are seated ! She is fantastic and fun, great spirit and a kind soul! read more

Had the Sicilian crust great pizza, and the service was awesome, friendly as all get out! Price was awesome. The place has a nice atmosphere. Back to the pizza, the crust, it was kinda like a homemade bread crust but better, the sauce had a hint of sweetness to it that mixed with everything very nicely, the toppings weren't anything special but all good! For me to give a pizza place a 5 star rating really says something! So way to go! Now go get a pizza! read more

Little hole in the wall with great food. My husband loved the minestrone soup. Both of us had pasta which was hot and flavorful. Quite busy for 8P on a Tuesday in Feb so don't expect a quiet relaxing place. The pizza and calzones we saw looked really good! read more

Food is great, I've been eating here since the 80's. Only issue.. every time I place an order and ask for something to be added or changed they do not do it. Example, I ask for ricotta cheese instead of mozzarella in the meat Stromboli and when I get my order it's mozzarella or ask for pizza sauce instead of marinara and they still give marinara. Seems the only way to get what you ask for is to place the order in person or eat there. read more

Great pizza and service. New to area and this will be our pizza place going forward. Thanks.

Food was very good, best pizza I've had in the Daytona beach area. Will definitely come here again. Wife had spaghetti and meatballs and the sauce was very good and the meatballs huge. read more

This place is incredible. I write this review as I wait for food to be delivered from them. The food her is exceptional. I have had many things in the menu and am amazed at how wonderfully tasty all of their food is. If you want a great Italian meal, order here. Thank you for the great food. read more

So greasy I couldn't eat. Called and owner came to phone and was so arrogant I hung up. Nasty guy. Will never order from them again.

tried the Margherita pizza was the worst Margherita pizza I've ever had. to put it to light, a carnival cruise ship's margherita pizza is better than this. took one bite and slid it back to the waitress. Floppy, greasy and gross! tough to find good pizza in Florida. read more

Amazing staff!! Amazing food!! Great times all the way around!! Could not finish our meals!! But lucky for us, we get to take it home!!

I have ordered a couple of times. Good pizza and excellent Stromboli. Quick delivery. This is a great place.

Absolutely amazing Italian food! I had the stuffed shells and my date had the pizza. Despite the very reasonable prices, I still took her home that night. Thanks Genovese's! read more

We had out if town guests and thought a nice Italian meal would be good. What a disappointment. The meatballs are like a ball of meat and not good meat, the sausage was not good either. The sauce was terrible. Really these portions are way too big. We won't be going back. read more

Great food, great service all around. The eggplant parmesan and the spinach Alfredo pizza are definitely with the trip there.

Wife and I have been eating there for years..... Never left hungry....... Excellent service...... Affordable prices...... Bring your appetite..... Large portions...... read more

Pizza is always delicious as always also we get a chefs salad the soup, Italian wedding or minestrone is great

Food is OK, but do not order on-line. They do not monitor the on-line orders. I called 20 minutes after the estimated delivery time and they gave me an opps, we just noticed the order (because I called and they had to check). That was at the hour mark since ordering. It took another 1 1/2 hour to actually get our food. Very disappointed. read more

Don't go when busy. Salads came out in a decent amount of time and we were told it would only be a few more minutes for our kids pizza. It took an additional 20 minutes for the pizza to come out totaling almost 40 minutes from ordering. Food is good despite the lack of service. read more

OMG!!!! FOOD IS AMAZING!!! STAFFS ARE EVEN BETTER!!! Be very hungry 'cause the food portion is huge!!! Everything is so delicious!!!! read more

The foods the best. Service was outstanding I'm a proud Italian American and know my foods. Congrats would drive up from Miami for this restaurante read more

This is actually the best pizza around. It's better to eat here and just eat it while it's hot right from the Pizza oven. It's a very small place but the wait staff does a great job with what they have to work with. The food is good and very plentiful. We enjoy coming here. read more

The food is acceptable but the service is terrible. I am only rating a 2 star because the food was fine but I will never return or recommend this to anyone. My recommendation, find somewhere else to dine. read more

The best Italian food around. Great portions and a fabulous fun staff! Don't forget to order the antipasto salad, u will be wowed! Excellent pizza and all great entrees! read more

So disappointing. Reviews are amazing. We just moved to Ormond Beach and wanted some good Italian. Tried the "pizzerias" and wanted an upscale Italian dinner. Ordered the eggplant parm to go. It WAS NOT FRESH. Frozen? I think so. It was inedible. It was soggy, the breading was "wet" not crisp and delicious. The eggplant was so rubbery that we couldn't cut through it with a fork. 3-4 layers of soggy/rubbery eggplant without sauce or cheese. Seriously, the only cheese In the dish was 2 deli cheese slices on the top only. What happened to layering? What happened to fresh food? Into the garbage it went. Now we are still on a quest to find a good eggplant parm. Any suggestions?? read more

EXCELLENT Italian food served here BUT, don't expect fast service. You can expect to be there at least an hour(plus) from start to finish. We'd rather call to order. (It's faster) SECRET: if you order a large pizza, make sure you get a small plain pizza free. BUT, you have to ask for it. read more

Totally overrated! Stood on line as the first person in the restaurant, next to sign that had sit anywhere. Restaurant was busy and at the time no seats available. Staff totally ignored that I was even standing there. Didn't even ask how many in the party. Only talked to I guess the locals or regulars and I must have been invisible with two other adults and a baby. Would never even suggest that place to anyone. So disrespectful. The staff kept looking out from their little area and I know they saw us but just totally disregarded us. Don't go there if you expect to be served. They don't even deserve one star but had to put something to review. read more

Fast delivery and hot when arrived. Ordered the garlic bread with cheese and large cafe combo pizza. Excellent!!! And the large pizza is big! Highly recommend if you need a pizza craving satisfied. read more

So very disappointed in this restaurant... Had food delivered most of it was just mediocre. It was referred by the hotel staff/ concierge. This was not our first time trying yet... Food was not great and when called to nicely complain... The Guy in charge did not want to accommodate us because he saw that we were from "out of town"... My chicken was too dry and also, not much of it in the fettuccine Alfredo, my sister ordered the shrimp fettuccine and there was not much of the shrimp compared to the other dishes delivered. The guy only wanted to give us A credit if we come back in the next 30 days... That will not happen. So disappointed and I recommend nobody go there. Especially for delivery! Tammy read more
