    Love the special. All day every day. $7.99 for two cheese slices and a drink! Pizza comes out hot and crispy. Definitely try them out.

    Shrunken sandwich
    David C.

    I really like Mr Patel's Italian restaurant. I've been going here since it was in its original location sometime back in the 1990s. This eggplant parmesan sub I ordered was about as long as my index finger. I should have put a quarter or something next to it for scale. It's just disappointing that the sandwich size has shrunk in half basically. This feels scammy....

    We stopped in here for lunch and got a large pepperoni pizza and 4 drinks. It was $33 bucks and the pizza was solid. It was a little pricy for the drinks and was we didn't get them. The pizza was very think and crispy which I like. Good atmosphere and it got the job done

    "Cheesesteak"
    Oliver D.

    An absolute scam of a shop. This was the worst pizza I've ever eaten. Spent $40 dollars on a cheese pie and a cheesesteak which was about the length of a small banana and filled with a thin layer of raw onions and GROUND BEEF? Vile food with zero flavor - these people are absolute scammers. Don't waste your money.

    Pepperoni Slice.... Just as good as in New York City!

    I love me a good NY Pizza and this place is friggin great! Wow! A gem in Florida! Great job guys! Pizza: 4.3 Crust: 4.0 Sauce: 4.5 Cheese/Ingredients: 4.5 Service: 4

    White Slice
    Allen Y.

    Very meh pizza. Came here to get a slice of cheese and white pizza. The white pizza was very under-seasoned and tasted like I was eating plain unsalted ricotta on bread. There was no umami, sweet, sour, salt, or bitter taste to it. The cheese pizza was overly greasy and also disappointing. Save your money and go somewhere else. The ambiance was also depressing. It was 8pm on a Friday night and the place was empty and the workers were vacuuming.

    I stopped in for the lunch special which is a drink and two slices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is a nice size, however most people were coming to grab to go orders.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was very friendly and quick which was great since I was on lunch from a training. The pizza tasted great! Just the right amount of dough and sauce.

    Got a large sausage pie to go on a Saturday night, figured I'd keep it light since I had a big day of TV watching planned for the next day. The inside was clean and the staff was friendly. The large pizza is massive (no complaints here). It's advertised as New York style pizza, and it definitely is. The crust isn't thick, but it's also not too thin, it's right in the middle. Generous on the toppings and cooked well. It wasn't too flaccid, as shown in the photos below. Passed the flaccid test, it didn't just flop over when the pizza was held by the crust. The pie was cooked exceptionally , but it didn't have a ton of flavor, that's why I'm going with four stars instead of five. The place is definitely worth a try.

    Size view of Steak and Cheese sub, where's the beef?
    Suzanne D.

    Ordered from DoorDash and the Steak and Cheese Sub was very disappointing. Size and amount of meat for $15.50 (on DD) was ridiculous. On their site it is $12.95 which is still a ripoff.

Plenty of parking, plenty of seating, and whether you sit inside or outside, you're in for something special. Now for the best part... the pizza. We eat pizza about once a week and it's my husband's favorite food. We brought our granddaughter with us, and pizza is her favorite too. She immediately knew what she wanted: mushrooms and pepperoni. Done. As for us? We had no idea where to start. We ordered the Wise Guy: vodka sauce base, sesame seed crust, spicy soppressata, ricotta, fresh basil, and Calabrian chili hot honey. We also asked our server for their favorite recommendation and ordered the Vodka-Roni: vodka sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, burrata cheese, and fresh basil. Were we dreaming? This is hands down the best pizza we have ever had anywhere in the world. New York pizza? Sorry... step aside. You've officially been removed from our top three. They are now #1. This was the most flavorful pizza we have ever eaten. I'm usually not particularly picky about pizza. My husband, however, is a pizza connoisseur. Going forward, every pizza will now be judged against these. We live in Polk City and only travel down this way every few months or so, but this place is now officially a destination. We would absolutely go out of our way for this pizza. And can we talk about the sesame seed crust? Where have you been all my life? Absolute genius. The staff were incredibly kind, full of suggestions, helpful with leftovers, and made the experience even better. And finally... the chocolate-dipped cookies. Wow. Some places serve pizza. This place serves an experience.

This is only the second time we've seen our 5-year-old completely devour an entire pizza--once in California and now here in Florida. Considering we live in what's supposedly the pizza capital of NYC, that probably says more than anything else about this place. The service was great. Everyone was genuinely kind, and since our friends and family are regulars, they were greeted like old friends and we were welcomed just as warmly. The pizza itself was excellent. Even the basic cheese pizza stood out, which is usually the real test. We also ordered the 1837 and a jalapeño pizza, and everything was demolished without hesitation. We also noticed a solid beer selection, and everyone seemed to be enjoying theirs as well. You order at the bar and they bring the food out, and there's also outdoor seating which looked really nice. Looking forward to going back on our next visit to Sarasota.

The waitress was very friendly and helpful with answering all my questions. We ordered 2 glasses of pinot noir which were decent, fried artichoke hearts for the appetizer and two pizzas one cheese and one with garlic, cheese, and little chilies. The appetizer was really good but I think it could have been elevated a notch if the dip was more of a lemon base dipping sauce. The pizzas were both thin and very tasty, nice tomato base, I liked the little difference of crust (thin & crunchy) compared to your normal softer crust on an Italian wood fired pizza. I like when I'm able to have preferences on pizza crusts on any given day. I would like to go back and try something else next time to see what this little spot has to offer. Overall it was a good experience and we will try it again in the future. Food 8.0 Atmosphere 8.0 Service 9.0
