Paesano's is a decent local spot, but it didn't really hit that "I need to come back" level. The tomato sauce was probably the biggest letdown it tasted like straight tomato base with very little seasoning. It wasn't bad, just kind of flat and lacking that garlic/herb punch you expect from a standout slice. Topping options (especially for slices) felt limited. If you're walking in hoping for variety or something creative, it's pretty basic. The crust was cooked properly, no complaints there it held up well and wasn't underdone--but it was missing a little texture. Could've used a bit more crisp or bite to elevate it. read more

Paesano's Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Modena, New York

New ownership! YAY! The pizza here has always been good not great maybe but the previous owners were not the friendliest. They made me feel like they were annoyed I was putting them to work. I had been coming here for years and not once got a smile or a hint of recognition. I was greeted with smiles all around yesterday. I ordered a Sicilian and pepperoni slice. They were very good. I would have liked them a bit hotter but I'll know better nexy time. It had been years since I went in here but seeing that sign gave me hope. I'll be back again. read more

Paesano's Pizzeria - Under new OWNERSHIP!! HOORAY!! - Pizza Near Me - Modena, New York

NEW OWNERS (2025) This shop is under new ownership! Yelp reviews apparently shit on the previous owners but rest assured the new management of this shop have changed things up and care about the business. I got two slices of different cuts to sample two types of their pizza and let me tell you it was on point! Anyone can slap cheese on dough but what makes amazing pizza is the sauce. The sauce is the star of any pizza so if it's flavorful the pizza is going to be clutch. The regular slice was really good but the square Sicilian slice which I realized after I gobbled it up is actually a grandma pie. I had heard of the grandma pie but never had it and OMG they make it insanely good here. The ambience is simple with plenty of seating. The main shop has about 3-4 tables for eating in but they do have a large area of seating (further into shop) if business was bursting at the seams which I hope is the case for them because speaking with the new owners they certainly are demonstrating they care about their shop and customer feedback. read more

We were very satisfied with the pizza when they first changed hands. Unfortunately, the last two times we got pizza, they seemed to be overcooked. Not trying to be mean - just disappointed as I was hopeful for the new owners. read more

spent over 150.00 of pizzas and wings delivered tonight and it was the worst food we've ever eaten! The dough was hard and burnt and dried out! the crazy chicken was extremely horrible with hardly any meat but bbq sauce! The grandma white broccoli pie was so thin and flat and hard and dried out! Our first and last time to ever order there again! What a waste of money read more

Food was delicious! The new owners have seemed to do a good job at making better food than the previous owners. Will definitely be going back. read more

Placed an order for pick up, large pepperoni with half onions. It smelled so good, that it took all my will power not to eat a slice in the car. I swear the pizza taste better here than home .... must be the water! The toppings were super fresh and flavorful. Love the thinner crust and that sauce! Still tasted amazing for breakfast the next day...warm or cold! The place itself is small, just a few tables for people eating in, they do sell slices too. But as I waited in line to pay it seemed like everyone was getting their order to go. Service was fast and friendly, giving us napkins and plates. A few slices even made their way back home to Rochester, they were quickly devoured too :) Only complaint... they don't deliver to my house. read more

THE FOOD DONT PLAYYYYY!!! DELCIOUS!!! The workers are great, and are always helping! The setting in there is beautiful! Definitely recommend best pizza place EVER!!!! read more

Very disappointed with the owner of this establishment he was very rude. Unprofessional disrespectful as I was trying to order I ask why the attitude he reply I own the place I could say what I want. You don't like it here go somewhere else. No one ask you to come here keep in mind I said nothing to this man other than I would like to order 3 plain slice of pizza and I was ordering for my patient I definitely give this establishment zero star review. He does NOT deserve 1 star review I will never return there again. If anyone else encounter.a situation like this, please share we have to stop him from doing this to anyone else. read more

i came in and ordered two Sicilian pizza for lunch, they were immediately heated and severed. quick service, but got to say they are pretty quite there, but i do notice they very quick to clean which is +. the slices had a decent amount of sauce, the cheese was toasted well with burnt spots, crust was warmed and not doughy or burnt black. overall great slices of pizza. read more

Paesano's Pizzeria - Sicilian pizza slices - Pizza Near Me - Modena, New York

If I could put 0 stars I would. Not the first time this happened. Took a few times before I finally posted a review. Paesanos does not take credit card first of all. You need cash only. Also, This place puts like no cheese on a plain pie and barely any sauce. When I picked up my large pie, it looked like it was dried out in the Sahara Dessert for the day and dried to a prune. Completely bare. Sorry but it's not the first time. But it is the last. read more

Terrible service , terrible delivery time. Don't waste your hard earned money with people who are rude and send you cold food for $45.00 An hour and a half later. Didn't offer a discount or anything. Poor excuse of a business owner. read more

Food good. The girls behind the counter are not the brightest. Good luck dealing with them on the phone And cashing out!

They let me leave with burnt food. When I called to complain the owner's wife tried to tell me they are short handed and having a rush at 345pm. Meanwhile it was me And two other customers while I sat and waited. So I guess when they're short handed it's okay to give out burnt food. She had a new dinner delivered but I won't be back. I filled up on the bread and salad as I waited for the new non burnt food to come. The women seemed surprised that was I was clearly unhappy when I called. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out you don't sell burnt food so yea I'm pissed. read more

Paesano's Pizzeria - The whole bottom is crusted over with a burnt layer. The Word of advice is to check your food before you leave this place - Pizza Near Me - Modena, New York

Got pizza from here the other night, once I got it home it was cold mind you I live 5 mins away. For fresh hot pizza it was neither. The pizza tasted like it was cooked the morning of and that they just threw pineapple on it and heated it up. The cheese was gross, it didn't even look fresh, the crust tasted like cardboard. The whole meal was ruined because it didn't even taste right. Save your time and money and go somewhere else that knows how to make "Fresh" pizza. read more

Worst customer service ever!!! I will never be back!! The owner is EXTREMELY RUDE!! He doesn't care about his customers, only money!! Takes advantage of his customers!! I went here Friday night with my son. We ordered an appetizer and a pizza. When I got the bill, the prices were different than what was on the menu. I'm a single mother and money is tight so I questioned it, he said that they were old menus and the prices were correct on the bill. I told him that wasn't right and that he should adjust my bill to the menu price. He blatantly refused with such an attitude!! He ALWAYS has an attitude when I go there but I've ignored it because I did like the food. I will no longer patronize this business. And I hope people read this and decide to go elsewhere. I really couldn't believe his attitude. Very sad really. He must be a VERY unhappy man. read more

I have never been so rudely treated --all I asked is if my slice could be more well done. From there I was verbally accosted. I felt so bad for the counter girl who I could tell was so embarrassed even through her mask. To top it off they allow patrons to come in maskless. Never will I go again. read more

Insanely great pizza. If you think otherwise then you must have no taste buds. Also I see people who talk about the rude service there. I have never experienced that there. The staff there is nice. They always have the ball game on there on sundays which is nice so I can't escape watching my teams lose even when I'm not at home. On a serious note it's the best pizza I've every had. read more

my wife placed and order last night and the person she placed the order with didnt understand what she had said and the order that we recieved was in correct. We were told when she called that tgey would credit the order for thw pizza that got messed up. So we just called to place and order to recieve the correct pizza and after my wife place the order they called back and said they needed to talk to someone who can order correctly. So i informed the man, who said he was the owner, that she had ordered it correctly and he told me that he wasnt the kind of guy you want to mess with. And then i formed me that we will no longer be doing business together and hung up on me. I have ordered from this place for the past few years and have never felt so unsatisfied then i do right now. I will never tell anyone to order from her until the so called owner appoligizes read more

Poor quality, better than frozen, not by much. Cheese is clearly cheap and we go here only when desperate.

Authentic Italian cuisine! I was surprised at some of the negative feedback because I had excellent service and a great meal. Went back for buffalo chicken ranch pizza. And it was amazing! I think this pizza is better than any slice I've had in NYC read more

Best pizza in Modena hands down. Delivery is a little iffy, I've had pizza come in far from hot, yet the taste is superb! read more

Pizza is good. Wraps are Great! I ordered a Chicken bacon ranch wrap and the thing was loaded with fried chicken pieces and bacon. The wrap was not soggy like some other places i have ordered from in the past. Very good. They have Fast prep so no need to wait 2 hours like some other local places. No complaints. read more

Pizza is really good especially hot out of the oven. Love a white pie with garlic and broccoli. . Wings are always crispy and spicy bbq is awesome! Salads and subs are good too. Hard to see from the road though so don't miss it! read more

They suck.bought a meatball parmesan there was literary 2 meatballs on the whole sandwich. Told the guy about it and he said thats how they do it. Owners have a shit attitude and was told by some of the waitress that the owners are pervs.if you want to waste your money than go here. read more

Paesano's Pizzeria - Meatball hero from paesanos. See if you can find the meatballs.need I say more.yes never again. - Pizza Near Me - Modena, New York

They have the best Alfredo white pie I've ever had, can't wait to try their other menu items.

Ridiculously slow delivery and bad attitude! We decided to try Paesano's based on a coupon we received in the mail, and ordered a single pizza and salad at 5:30pm. We called at 6:30 to check on its status, since we had hungry children waiting to eat, and were told that they were very busy but our order was the "next one out". At 7:00 we called again and were told "it was on its way", and the guy we talked to was not concerned about how unacceptable this time frame was. At 7:15 we called to cancel the order and my husband drove down to Pasquale's to pick up a few slices so we could feed the kids and get them into bed already. I give this restaurant two stars because who knows, their pizza may be mind-blowing. But we should have been told right off the bat how busy they were and how long the delivery might take, and in this economy, businesses should care about customer service. read more

Living only 5 minutes away, we order from Paesano's almost once a week. They always get our order right and their blue cheese for the wings is delicious. The cannolis are crispy with lots of filling and we always ask for extra pizza sauce on the pie! read more

Average everything - sauce on pizza was a bit sweet - crust was cooked too slowly and was bready instead of crusty. The meatball heroes barely have meatballs at all. That may sound like a bad thing until you experience lack of flavor of the forgettable meatballs. read more

Today I went to pick up my pizza that I ordered, and the girl behind the counter charged me $80.47 when it was supposed to be $20.47. I noticed this right away and confronted them about it and the owner was giving me a serious attitude about it because of his incompetence. He gave me my refund of $60.00, but acting like this was my fault. I do not recommend the pizza place because of the serious attitude by the owner. I think there is a scam going on by this establishment. I will never again do business at this place. read more

NEVER AGAIN!!! I ordered from them for delivery and they delivered the wrong items. I called and offered to go return our items to get the items I originally ordered and they refused and said they would charge me again. Driver also took a tip that I wasn't educated on because they quoted me the wrong price on the phone. Terrible food, terrible service I do not recommend anyone to go here. read more

This food is gross as sh** I ordered a buffalo wrap and it wasn't even warm, the lettuce was super shredded and there was 3 times as much lettuce than buffalo chicken. So gross never will eat here again read more

Always great pizza. Subs and dinners are good too. This past time I enjoyed a delicious cannoli for dessert. Buffalo chicken wrap is one of my faves here. read more

I'm a fat man and their pizza always brings me what I need, cheese, dough and something to save me from an unending depression

Had pizza from there the other night and the dough was not good. Sometimes it's really good and sometimes it's like they forget to put something in the dough. My wife says its salt that it's missing. Don't know how they could mess something like that up on something that they do all the time. Gonna give them one more shot and if it's not good I won't be ordering from there again. read more

Paesano's is a very nice stop and I base this on several times of going there, mainly for pizza which is always great. Garlic knots are great also. Prices are reasonable which is a plus. read more

This place has gone down hill and fast. Placed my order and asked for a total price which was $85.24. I was told 45 minutes for delivery and I'm only 5 miles from the pizza place so after 1 hour and 10 minutes it wasn't delivered yet so I called and I was told it was just going out for delivery. While they had me on hold waiting to find out where my food was I could here them talking on other phones telling other people ordering food it would be 45 minutes for delivery when they should have been honest and said more than an hour. I wait another 20 minutes to be delivered and the delivery driver says $95.00. I had to call the pizza place to tell them I was told $85.24 and after the driver read the delivery ticket back to them with my order they came up with $88.00. They said they had a 16 year old adding the tickets up and probably did it wrong. I paid the $85.00 I was originally told and then I find out one of my side orders of meatballs was missing an no bread was sent with the dinners. Never again, they seem unable to run a business the right way and I have high expectations when I spend the amount of money. read more

Pizza is very good, in fact all the food I've ever had is. But unfriendly service has turned me off. If someone comes into a shop that you own once a week if not more, you'd think you would be treated with some hospitality. Oh well. Plenty of good pizza around here. read more

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. The food is subpar to say the least. We ordered for delivery and they delivered the wrong stuff and other food was missing. When my husband called to ask about the missing food, he got yelled at by the manager and then was hung up on. Terrible food, terrible customer service!! I would never recommend this place to anyone! Save yourself the trouble and go a few miles up the road. read more

Horrible customer service! The food is decent but I've had it with their inconsistencies and poor customer service. I was a regular weekly customer. I'll never order from them again. read more
