This is a cozy little place nestled in the Woodmere Mall area. It does have limited seating, but is cozy and you can watch the wood fired pizza oven. When you enter, grab a menu and find a seat, then once you're ready to order you simply go up to the counter and order then pay. We started with the breadsticks, which were delicious. The marinara sauce has a unique flavor, it wasn't bad - just different. Then I ordered a calzone which fantastic, just wish there were a bit more cheese. My friend ordered a custom pizza that looked amazing, and she was pleased with the taste. This will definitely be a repeat location. read more

This place has friendly service and great pizza. My only complaint is that the pizzas are very small in size and quite pricey too. Their dining room is small and very casual. They offer outdoor dining as well. I highly recommend this place simply for the good food and friendly service. read more

Great pizza. Great staff. My favorite is a margarita pizza with virgen olive oil infused with garlic

Enjoyed excellent paninis with side salads! Owner was very pleasant and explained the wood burning oven used to make pizza. Kind of wish we had ordered pizza after the information he provided!I highly recommend trying this restaurant! read more

Food was delicious and served quickly. Service was great and the menu is expanding. Great for lunch or a light dinner. Prices are similar to burger joints, but the Italian menu is so much better. read more

Pasquale's Authentico - Pizza Near Me - Crossville, Tennessee

Cute restaurant, but cozy with only about 6 tables. We ordered take-out. We both had the calzone. Was a bit disappointed as the cheese was very light and there was no garlic cream sauce as described. I even confirmed that it would be included. The calzones are large, but felt a little empty on the inside. I would recommend the outside of the calzone be brushed with garlic butter to avoid the extreme dry look and taste. The marinara was very fresh and tasty. We will try it again, but likely will get pizza. The food does have a wood-fired oven look and taste so make sure you like that style before trying it. read more

We have had nothing but delicious pizza here. It is a small place...which is the biggest issue....we can't bring larger groups., We enjoy bringing family and friends when they come to town as it's by far the best piizza around! Wish they were open longer hours!! read more

Honestly the food was amazing!! Prices were reasonable. My issue is when the owner is talking to guests about how people who drive for door dash/uber eats are below him and not the type of people he would want in his business. I will never go back. If you have a problem with someone's profession maybe don't have a public business you disgusting human being. read more

I was a bit disappointed. Prices suggested something outstanding to be expected, but it was OK. Counter service with the electronic paying system that expects big tips for bringing your order to you...one trip. Many in the younger generation accept this, I guess I am too old. Shame though, it was not worth a return visit. read more

This is our fourth visit since moving here about 6 months ago. The first two pizzas were wonderful with good amount of toppings and very flavorful. The third visit the pizza had minimal toppings and the restaurant had a strange odor that was off putting. Tonight the pizza was horrible with minimal toppings again and the chicken tasted freezer burned and was hard to chew. This restaurant was so promising but has gone down hill very quickly. Won't be returning I sorry to say. read more

I had high hopes for this place, given its claim of serving "authentic Italian pizza." Unfortunately, my experience was anything but Italian--unless raw dough and unmelted cheese are some kind of regional specialty I've never heard of. The crust was raw... RAW DOUGH. COOKED? NOT ALL THE WAY. It was clear that either the oven wasn't working, or the kitchen had simply given up trying. What baffles me the most is how they had the audacity to cut and box a raw pizza--with a literal hole in the slice that tore because it was raw! Did no one in the kitchen look at it before handing it over? Did they just assume customers enjoy baking their own dinner after paying full price? Because that's exactly what I had to do. As I write this review, the pizza is finally finishing up in my own oven--something the restaurant should have done in the first place. I can see what they were trying to achieve--a cozy, rustic Italian pizzeria with quality ingredients and an authentic feel. But good intentions don't make up for poor execution. If they want to be taken seriously, they need to figure out how to actually cook a pizza before selling it. At this point, I'm giving up and grabbing a frozen pizza from my freezer--because honestly, it's better than whatever this place served me. Save yourself the trouble and do the same. At least you won't have to finish cooking it yourself. read more

Just had our first pizza at Pasquales and it was excellent! Ask about the different sauces, too! read more

We had the most delightful experience eating here recently. We were greeted by the staff and seated immediately to study the menu. The orders are actually taken at the register and paid for before the creation of your pie begins. We opted for 2 pizzas knowing there would be leftovers to take home. One was with toppings of our choice but the other Polpetta Rotta (meatball) pizza was an amazing blend of ingredients that tickled hubby's tastebuds and I thoroughly enjoyed. I regret we didn't take any pics to share with you but neither of us could wait! The chef/owner spoke with us during our meal about his plans for expansion in the future which sounds exciting. He is passionate about his trade and is particular about the appearance and service in his establishment as evidenced by the instructions he gave staff as he chatted with us. Some of the dishes he discussed and is working on to add to the menu - I can't wait to try! Hubby and I had been discussing the lack of table service for authentic pizzerias in the area that are not chains when we decided to try Pasquale's. This is definitely a welcome addition to the Crossville dining scene. If you haven't tried it, you are missing out! We definitely will be returning to further explore the menu. read more

It's a cute little place with pillows in the booths. Small tables outside to sit at. I wasn't too impressed with the pizza and breadsticks I ordered. They had a burnt taste to them, and seemed a little under done. I'll have to come back to try a panini or calzone. They have potential! read more

If you are looking for authentic European style pizza and calzones, this is your place. High quality ingredients with delicious crust where you can actually taste the herbs and spices. Not the tasteless, chewy over-cheezed cardboard stuff you get from the big names. Delicious! Small place with limited seating. Super friendly staff. Highly recommend. read more

Close your eyes and you'd think you're in Venice. Authentic Italian pizza! Staff were friendly, service was top notch.

We've lived here for the past three years and this is the best pizza we've had in the Crossville area. Fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. read more

Pizza was sooooo tasty - thin crust and high quality ingredients - so delicious. Fun talking to the chef/owner about the weds specials he will be making. Absolutely going back for delicious food, fun ambiance right here in Crossville. read more

We came here on August 10th, 2024 after visiting Blacktop Mountain, and we were very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the food. We had the antipasto salad and the Mediterranean pizza. I don't normally go for a white pizza, but am glad we did. The garlic sauce was very good, and the ingredients were excellent. It was nice to have a fresh salad and wood fired pizza after a long hike. If you are in Crossville to visit the parks, I'd recommend this spot as a reliable place for good food. Check the hours to plan your visit. read more

Authentic Italian pizza!! Shared a Margherita pizza and sat outside on a beautiful sunny day. It was delicious, the crust perfect, coming from a wood-fired oven. Asked for extra Olive Oil which was . Yummy. Interior has nice ambiance as well. The water was delicious!, fresh, lol. The waitress explained it is tripled filtered, and is also used in making the dough. Good and quick service. Five stars. L read more

Amazing pizza! Fresh dough, so thin and crisp. Friendly service. Delicious spinach and mushroom. And the specialty meat pizza is fantastic.

Horrible and inefficient process. Don't even have table waitress. The owner is a loud mouth. They wont last long

Excellent pizza and friendly service. I like the crisp crust and variety of pizzas offered
