    Pizza was just ok. Service was really lacking, understaffed. Servers were nice but only two of them. The "daily pasta" was horrible, bland boiled noodles with boiled arugula-weird and tasteless. We ordered 2 pizzas, 2 pastas and 2 salads. The pizza crusts were light and the selections are a little unique but nothing I would go back for. If they're gonna charge fancy sit down prices they need to provide better service because the food is just average and expensive for what you get. When it first opened, it was better but the food doesn't taste as elevated as before and servers would make it a better experience.

    So the kiddo was in town from the Navy and she along with one of my other daughters has always been my "foodie" partner in crime.Always pushing to try new places,always pushing my boundaries-it's a good thing to have in life.Well this particular visit was coming to an end and we had one last meal together and she wanted pizza,but she knew what buttons to push with me when she was like,"I don't want pizza that I had before" -So I had to go thru my foodie rolodex and I remembered a spot that I've always cherished and held in high regard but had never taken her-I decided on Masullo on Riverside Blvd. That particular day everyone was being lazy and didn't actually want to go out so I decided to call in my order and just pick it up.I know at times in the past in their busiest times they sometimes don't take to-go orders,so I was relieved when I called them and they were able to take my order.There were 3 of us eating so decided to go with 2 pizzas-The American($22.00) which is basically mozzarella and pepperoni and the 3 Meats(($25.00) which is mozzarella ,ricotta,salami,sausage & mortadella. Parking at this location is pretty thin but luckily I was able to snag a spot at the business next door as it was a Sunday evening and they were closed. When I got there at the time they told me my food was ready,it wasn't quite ready but that was ok,they offered me water while I waited and it gave me a little time to look around,as it's been a bit since I'd been there.Masullo is an interesting restaurant,it's for sure not like a family friendly place per se,it's much more like "date-night" vibes for sure but not like a place for celebration,it's much more intimate-if I was a person still in the dating scene-I would definitely choose this place as a first date spot-it has that kind of feel for sure but it's still casual somehow. After a short wait-I got my pizza and man did they look and smell good-I got to admit I had to grab a slice once I got into the car-I couldn't helped myself-1st 5 minutes of a pizza is yummy. Once I got in and we dug in,I was reminded of why I love their pizza so much and to me why they are in contention for best pizza spot in the entire city.Their pizzas are smaller than you would expect,kind of like a super-sized personal pizza,so the slices are smaller-but the quality of the ingredients and the authentic Neapolitan wood-fired pizza style they use to make their pizzas are just perfection. I will admit-the 2 pizzas I chose were not very creative-they have an ingredient list that is so creative if one wanted to try some unique combos-but for some reason I've just stuck to the same pizzas every time I ordered. I saw on the menu that they also have pastas-salads & desserts but I have never indulged into those items.They also have a pretty extensive wine list. Elephant in the room of course is the cost-this isn't a cheap place,$25 for basically a personal pizza isn't cheap but the quality of the pizza and the charm and ambience of the place make it all seem worth it in my books-not every week but whenever the time is right-this is definitely on the list of places I have happily taken my wife on our date nights and will continue to do so. In closing If your ever want to try a really good pizza spot that's most likely different than your regular pizza spot-I would fully recommend heading down to Masullo to enjoy one of their great pizza creations-you won't regret it. PS-My foodie daughter who tried Masullo out for the first time with this visit really loved it and was irritated with me for "gatekeeping" one of the best pizza spots in Sacramento-kids these days I tell ya.

    How have I not heard of this awesome place in Land Park!? My son bought home a couple slices of leftover pizza and I was shocked that the crust was legit! It reminds me of New York pizzas! I had to bring my foodie friend to try this place! We arrived at noon on Saturday when they just opened and the place is still quiet with plenty of open tables. I really like the ambience. It's open concept with wood fire oven in the back where they cook the delicious pizzas! The menu is simple but sufficient. I hate complicated menus, so that works for me. I'm told the Pork and Beef Meatball appetizer is a must try. It's one large meatball per order. We shared it but I can totally eat this by myself with a slice of bread to soak up the tomato sauce. Comfort homie dish! We also order the Arugula Salads to offset the carbs. Great simple salad with fresh ingredients. Perfect amount of lemon vinaigrette. They have 5 choices of pizzas with tomato sauce and 7 choices of pizzas without tomato sauce. We went with Elisa (with sauce), which has Mozzarella, Toscano Salame, Fennel, Onion, Oregano, Pecorino Romano. The toppings are light and I love the thin crust. I need to come back to try the pizzas without the tomato sauce. They also have a couple of pasta and a nice selection of red wines. I can see myself come back for dinner with few friends and share a bottle of wine and couple of pizzas. Perfect casual weeknight dinner or weekend lunch spot! Oh, they also have a nice size private room for parties. Great place for birthdays or baby shower.

    The interior looks great, service was quick and friendly, and the pizza crust was spectacular! My favorite pizza was the Gilda - it was unique, full of flavor and even the presentation was great. I will definitely return for more :)

    Masullo is one of the less spoken about pizza giants of Sacramento. Been wanting to try them for a while bc it's been highly recommended by friends (and reddit) The quality, fresh, local ingredients that really shines through the food. We ordered: * Rosemary Bread ($8) + dipping oil ($2) - SO FLUFFY. Loved it. * Daily Pasta ($17?) - roasted eggplant, cherry tomatoes, garlic. At first I thought it was bland but it grew on me! * Rosanna - seasonal ($22) - I looooved this. The sweetness from the fresh peaches went so well with the saltiness of the mozzarella/pancetta * Eileen ($23) - a great savory pizza, the mushrooms make it real earthy - Prosecco ($12) - Cider ($7) Some people have called it bland, and if you're craving a thick slice of American pizza with ranch, then I can see why! But if you enjoy crispy crusts with the charred bubbles and the taste of fresh, cracked pepper, you'll love Masullo Server was nice and let us know there might be a bit of a lag with service because they were training someone, but we barely noticed! Food runners and servers were all helpful and friendly The restaurant is quite loud due to the industrial-style. I wouldn't necessarily call it a "fancy date night" restaurant but it's still amazing for dates! I would probably prefer to take a group of friends there

    What a hidden gem in Land Park! We ordered the Elisa and the Paolo pizzas, and both were so delicious. I especially loved the Paolo pizza--the salami was perfect, and they served it with their version of chili oil that had just the right amount of spice. Adding that chili oil to the pizza really elevated the flavors. We also tried the arugula salad with fennel and lemon vinaigrette, and it was amazing. I've never had a lemon vinaigrette before, and it was so refreshing--the lemon ratio was spot on, giving brightness without being overwhelming. The fennel was balanced beautifully, adding flavor without overpowering the salad, and the roasted almond slices gave it a great crunch. The ambiance here is minimalist yet very nice, with a cozy, casual vibe. There are benches and tables, and they even have a private room that can seat around 15 people, which would be perfect for a dinner party. I really appreciated the little touches--real forks and cloth napkins--that made the dining experience feel special. The staff were very friendly and helpful, which made everything even better. Overall, Masulo is a true neighborhood gem, and I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area

    Summer Burger Salad
    Keat K.

    Came here on a Saturday evening, and was seated right away. We started off with the Summer Burger salad which was flavorful with a briny creamy dressing. Next came the Lori pizza with red sauce base, sausage, oyster mushrooms, and chili Oil; the pizza has a heartiness to it with a pleasant mild spice. Our second pie was the Mustapha. Mozzarella, prosciutto, arugula, shaved grana padano, and drizzled with olive oil. Great combination but I do wish there was more prosciutto, to balance out the bitterness from the arugula. Masullo is a fun neighborhood spot, serving up good pizza. Definitely plan on coming back and trying the other pizzas on the menu.

    It's not your typical pizza place. It's so much better. Thin crust, quality ingredients and cooked to perfection in a wood fire oven. I have been eating here since the beginning and one thing that has never changed is how consistently perfect the food is every time. Not even during the pandemic when they were limited to take out only. All of the wait staff have always been kind and welcoming. Happy to chat about the menu, answer questions and offer guidance. The restaurant has grown over the years. Offering plenty of seating inside and a few tables outside as well. I love when the place is packed and you get to enjoy the bustle of local families and friends having a good time!

    Great neighborhood spot, decently busy for a Friday night but we were seating pretty quickly. Everything we ordered was very fresh, great quality and super tasty. The sourdough rosemary bread came with with olive oil from a local business, and was pillowy and delicious. We ordered a 3 meat pizza and a pesto pizza, both of which were SO tasty. Chili oil, fresh pepper flakes, and grana padano cheese (actually real cheese in the shaker kept in the fridge). We finished dinner with a lemon posset dessert, served in a little mason jar. Super tasty and simple! Overall a great meal, we will definitely be back. Only downside is the open concept restaurant means it can get pretty loud inside, but not a huge deal.

    The service and food was absolutely amazing. Our server Allison made the experience that much better. The ambiance was chill and laidback. My partner and I loved it. Great date night spot. Not too busy on a Friday night. We loved it.

    Came here since we were craving pizza and wow we don't regret it one bit! Parked on the street and walked over. On a Friday night the location is on the busier side. We were seated right away. We ordered the white sauce pizza and the meat lovers pizza. There's salt, pepper and spicy oil on the table as well and wow I love that spicy oil! It is so good on the pizza! Could down the entire bottle. Both pizzas were very fresh and authentic. Our favorite was the white sauce pizza ! Definitely recommend this place to everyone if you're craving Italian pizza!

    Natanya G.

    We love coming here! Pizza is so delicious and high quality. Crust is chefs kiss! Simple menu. Service is always nice. Depending on your appetite you can share a pizza or eat it all by yourself! Spacious restaurant. Love how you can see them making and baking the pizza in the brick oven! It's a treat to visit here.

    What is the corkage fee?

    Hi Katelyn--I'm so sorry we missed this question last year. Our corkage fee is $15.

    Are the pizzas big enough for 2 people or are they single serving pizzas?

    They are about 11 to 12 inches. They are not as dense as other pizzas, generally. The crust is crispy outside but light inside.…

Pretty easy to look over as they have your Italian basics. We opted for a cranberry and blue cheese salad with candied nut's. We ordered a full to share. I wish we were told it was too big for just 2 people. It's good for about 3-4 people. Without knowing, we also ordered Brussels spouts, which again is for 3-4 people. As for my entree, I ordered the chicken rigatoni. I didn't get to really enjoy it because I was super full by the time it came out. It was saucy and tasted good with the chicken bites. My husband had their famous lasagna. It came out hot so they must bake it as you order which is great! I will say, he said it was extremely cheesy. He had to look for the pasta in it. He did enjoy the flavor. Circling back, we got full with the salad and a small portion of the Brussel sprouts. We had to take our entrees to go. The waitress noticed and said she should have told us that the portions to the appetizers were large. I would have just ordered 1.

Ambience: very comfortable, although very loud inside the dining room-background music along with many patrons conversing. But our wait staff was great. Friendly and engaging - but not over bearing. In fact, i gave this place an extra star just for the wait staff. Other than that, i would rate their entrees...as decent, but there is room for improvement to help raise the bar. Hence 3.5 stars overall Appetizers: 1) fried raviolis - not bad, filled with spinach and ricotta and arrived with marinara dipping sauce 2) fried calamari- too much coating which over powered the delicacy of the squid. Plus, it arrived cold. It came with two dipping sauces which helped. Entrees: 1) Two pies: Sicilian and soppresaata & hot honey: both pies were decent, arrived straight from the oven 2) farmers market salad: very fresh greens, tender pieces of chicken but was missing the fresh corn. 3) spaghetti w/meatballs: nice entree with a mild sauce, but meatballs tasted more filler than actual meat. And the garlic bread was cold 4) rigatoni aka vodka: very nice entree and our diner ordered it with gluten free pasta 5) spaghetti parmesano: entree looked great when it arrived- mild sauce w/al dente noodles but the chicken was over cooked and even dry with a layer of mozzarella that didn't help. And again arrived with cold garlic bread. Would i return? in a few years. but the service was good which made our evening. However i wish all the pasta entrees and calamari appetizer were as good as their pies. Again, little details with their appetizers, pasta, and salad dishes would have made our dining experience more enjoyable.
