    Nutella Pizza Slice
    Aikeem V.

    I ordered a white slice and grandma slice. The white slice was great. The grandma slice was okay. I've had better. They did have a Nutella slice which I've never seen before. It looked good but too much for me!

    Penne Vodka Slice
    Maggie H.

    My absolute favorite pizza I've ever eaten. The penne vodka slice is hands down the best thing at Grand Ave Pizza. While you can't go wrong with any other slice of theirs or the garlic knots, this takes the cake. It's seriously the best pizza and if you get a chance to stop by, you better not leave without a slice!

    How it came delivered. Penne Vodka Pizza Slice, Buffalo Chicken Pizza Slice, Garlic Knots burnt, garlic knots.

    Honestly not impressed but not gonna judge so bad and will check them out in person one of these days. I just got home from being in the emergency for 5 hours and wanted something quick and close. So I live a literal 2 minute walk away and ordered from here for the first time cause you never know how your delivery will be. So I figured it would be all less shook around. And fortunately, it was fine and on time, early tbh. I got a five dollar discount for using the slice app for the first time, so that was cool. But the food.... most burnt garlic knots I've ever seen with barely any sauce. The buffalo and penne slices both pretty well done. I'm a buffalo slice girl and always judge a pizza spot on that slice... not impressed. They actually gave me my blue cheese sauce so thumbs up. The cheese cake is decent. BUT THIS IS THE FIRST CANNOLI I EVER ORDERED THAT DIDNT COME WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS! Disappointed lol. But hey, it's an hour before they close so we all know you're not gonna get the freshest food. Not impressed but will give them a chance again when I can go in person during the day.

    Penne vodka pizza slice
    Jessica E.

    This is the most unique and delicious slice I've had. Legit one weekend, my boyfriend and I had this slice for every meal. (don't tell my parents lolol) The sauce is fire. So creamy and delicious. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top and you've got the best slice in the game. I am so happy I found this hidden gem in Astoria. I recently traveled 45 min to get here because true love know no distance right!?? If you come here, GET THIS SLICE.

    Penne Vodka Slice

    I've passed by Grand Avenue Pizza so many times over the years, but I stopped in for the first time last week. I opted for the penne vodka slide which was very good. The bottom crust was a bit too crunchy for my liking but the flavor was great. I will definitely try it again.

    Chicken, Bacon, Ranch Pizza on the left, Buffalo on the right.
    Dariel R.

    Decent Pizza spot in Queens. The service is fast and the workers are sufficient. The two pizza's I got (Chicken Bacon Ranch & Buffalo) did the job. Is it one of the best in New York? No. But great quality none the less. If I am ever in the area and craving pizza, will for sure come again.

    The worst meat lovers pizza that I've ever had
    Andre M.

    This was the worst meatlovers pizza that I've ever had! I've had meatlovers pizza from numerous places in NYC and other places across the US. Every pizzeria has their own way of doing pizza. Though never really stepping to far away from how the flavor of pizza is traditionally flavored. I mean the pizza didn't even look appetizing at all to begin with. Pretty much on par with frozen pizza, and there are actually frozen pizza brands that are really good. Though none that I would ever choose over going to get a fresh pizza made from a pizzeria. Though after tasting this pizza I would definitely take a frozen pizza brand over this meatlovers pizza we received tonight. The sauce was orange as smelled like spaghetti sauce, but tasted absolutely nothing like spaghetti sauce, tomato sauce, or marinara...weird. The meat on the pizza was minced, the crust was very doughy and it tasted like it was baked, then frozen, had toppings placed on it and baked again. I almost never give reviews but I couldn't let this go without saying something.

    Cheese Pizza, Buffalo Chicken Pizza, Creamy Spinach and Artichoke with Alfredo Sauce Slice
    Justin H.

    Solid NYC style thin-crust pizza. Delicious crust and flavorful marinara. Cheese slice was absolutely perfect. I wasn't overly impressed with the buffalo chicken or the spinach artichoke slices. Not sure if they had been sitting out a while since I went late at night during the pandemic. Will probably be back to quickly grab a cheese slice to go if I'm on 30th ave.

Hubby had the Agnolotti di zucca very good as well, great tasting sauce & pasta.

    Ive lived in Astoria practically my whole life yet never been to Vite. It off 31st ave on 34th…read morestreet and for some reason ive never ventured there. While deciding where to go one day, this was suggested and im so glad I went. The restaurant is cozy with tables inside the main dining room and in an enclosed outdoor seating area. Im guessing it opens in the summer. I sat down with my niece while waiting for my sister and for a good 5-7 minutes, no one stopped by and gave a menu nor offered water. Finally after about 3 people walked by not saying anything, someone came. The area is not that big and 7 minutes isnt that long but to sit there any not be addressed by all the staff walking by was annoying. Finally my sister came and we were offered water and a menu. After hearing about the specials and asking for recommendations, we settled on the gnocchi (housemade potato gnocchi, burrata, peas, pesto sauce, toasted pine nuts), Pappardelle alla Bolognese (housemade ribbon pasta, meat sauce), and side of sautéed spinach. The food arrived and we were pleasantly delightful by the main. The gnocchi was so soft and creamy, the sauce was delicious. Im not a fan of gnocchi but this was so good. The papardelle was my meal and it was also so good. There was a lot of pasta and a good amount of meat sauce. It was also delicious. The spinach on the other hand was bland. It has no flavor and we had to add some salt. A few times we tried to call someone over to our table but felt like no one was paying attention. When we were done with our meals, my sister had a few pieces of gnocchi left. She asked for a box as it was to be my nieces lunch for tomorrow. I then said, can you also box up the spinach. A few minutes later, the server dropped off a bag with one container and said here's the spinach. We tried to call his attention but he was already walking away. Where was the gnocchi. Finally when we came back, we asked about it and he said oh I thought it was garbage. I said no we asked for it to be boxed. He said let me talk to the kitchen. He came back and said sorry, they cant do anything but one dessert will be on me. I guess thats fine but we more wanted the food for the baby. For dessert we ordered a tiramisu and pistachio gelato. The tiramisu was in a jar as opposed to a cake slice. One bite of the ice cream and I knew it was bad. It was grainy and sandy texture. I looked up why that would be and one reason stated it could be improper storage, like it was unfrozen or melted then refrozen. I wasn't chancing that. I told the server and said I couldn't eat it. He offered another dessert but I said know, then offered a limoncello shot. While I appreciate the offer, we weren't drinking before so that wasn't the best option to offer. I just said im fine without a replacement. When we got the bill, the dessert was taken off like he said he would. We paid and left. Overall the main course/pasta meals were delicious. The sides and desserts could use work. Service was alright. Id definitely come back for the food and to try some of the pizza.

There was only one server working the floor, but with just two tables occupied, service was quick and attentive. Hard to say how it'd hold up on a busier day. The food was a mixed bag -- some hits, some middle-of-the-road. The burrata was one of the better plates. Creamy and fresh, a solid start to the meal. The truffle fries also landed well -- crisp, and the truffle came through without being overpowering. The lasagna was the weak point. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable either -- nothing about it stood out enough to recommend. Dessert was the high note. The "Baby Jesus" is genuinely decadent -- rich and indulgent, the kind of thing worth saving room for. One letdown: no mocktails on the menu. The only non-alcoholic options are two non-alcoholic beers -- no fruit juices or anything else. Worth flagging if you're coming with kids, since the choices are thin.

    So me and my wife booked this restaurant for Valentines Day since we been here before…read more Once we got there we were given the Vday prix fixe menus which were $75 per person. Upon asking for a regular menu I was told it's this prix fixe menu only and no substitutions or regular menu available. There was no mention upon booking this place, it had a prix fixe menu ONLY otherwise we would have not went. The menu consisted of 1 appetizer, 1 main course and 1 dessert for $75 per person. The food was good and the service was good as well our server was very nice. What bothers me is no mention when making the reservation it's just the pre fixe menu and upon actually doing the math and adding all of the items we got for 2 people going off their regular menu prices we actually ended up paying about $30 more which is usually not the case in other restaurants this should have been much cheaper. Also some of the dishes on the prix fixe menu had an additional $12.50 charge because of the type of the ingredients used, if you're going to charge extra just make a smaller portion or use other type of meat. Definitely not happy how they prepared this whole menu thing and will not be coming back here most likely. The only reason I gave 2 stars is because the staff was very nice and the food was good.

Our table was right by the open kitchen, and it was actually really cool watching the chefs work while we ate. Foodwise, we started with the arancini balls which were delicious. For the main, I ordered the fettuccine al ragu filetto and I'm glad that I did because it was a bit different from the usual pasta dishes I've had before. However the pizza cacio e salasiccia was a bit salty for my taste. For dessert we ordered the panna cotta of the day which was a berry one. That was really good.

It's a solid 3.5 stars so I averaged upward. The misses: I ordered what I believe was the most expensive item (chicken parm) and received the less than stellar experience (see picture) of a meal. As Rodney used to say: "it was fit for a king, here's King, here King." The chicken was precooked fully and then reheated after the sauce and mozzarella was placed above it. This is a twofold quick fire method of serving guests quickly and having those guests not return. To be clear the taste was superb but the texture was not. Think microwaved chicken but unlike microwaved chicken, my order came out somewhere between lukewarm and WTF?!? We ordered the Ill described beet salad with goat cheese that oughta have been named arugula salad with beets and goat cheese if there was dressing, I don't taste it. So I asked for some olive oil and S&P. I can conclusively assert that she brought salt and pepper. The jury is still out whether I received olive oil. The meatballs we ordered would make mamma cry, but not from happiness. They were overly salted and dense like some Balkan kabob kinda thing like spicy soujuks. Our waiter and waitress combo were very nice and equally aloof. The pleasant accent revealed that hospitality was not their first language. And now for the hit, and almost great: we ordered the truffle oil fungi pizza. Taste, and texture were excellent but it needed a wee more time for the cheese to fuse with the rest of the ingredients. I forgot to ask them to add olive oil atop of the mozz prior to placing the pizza in the over. Despite this detail the pizza still was the best item we ordered. Overall their cuisine was a valiant effort. I'll most certainly return (but after I diet try every other restaurant in Astoria that I haven't tried before and try again those that I have.
