    Meatballs
    Anthony D.

    We stopped by for dinner and had to wait around 15 minutes for a table to open up inside. It's pretty small inside and so I can see it getting very busy if you were to dine in. The interior is pretty dark and moody which I personally really liked. Our server was fantastic throughout the night as well. The Meatballs were fantastic and a huge portion! I love how the tops are baked and have a nice crust which adds more texture. The Lover Boy and Malibu pizzas were amazing and I would happily order them again. The biggest highlight of the pizza, is the construction/bite itself. I think this might be my favorite 'bite' when it comes to ratio of toppings, bread, crisp. I think they nailed the balance perfectly. This is not the 'droopy' slice (which is still good) but rather a very structured slice where it holds itself well. I couldn't praise it anymore. Go try it yourself!

    10/10 some of the best pizza I've ever had. Their oizza is cooked in a wood burning oven they made themselves. Crust was crisp, yet chewy and oh so good. We ordered their meatballs - definitely best I've ever had! Get the meatballs!! The place is very small with one row of tables. Worth the wait and you will not be disappointed!

    My friend Chris and I yesterday wanted to check it out. It was about a short walk from the Moxy resort that we were staying at. My friend Chris got a small personal pizza for $20. They offer wine, beer, and seasonal beers. I didn't get any food. Very small inside, very mom n pop ish. The men in the restaurant make pizza by hand; ie tossing it and hand pulling the dough. If this is your vibe it's a must do!! The gentleman telling us about the menu was nice and informative. He was the only one that helped us out. 10/10 Really good pizza!!

    We came on a Friday night and there's 2-hour street parking all around, which we got lucky and snagged a spot immediately. I'll be completely honest, I REALLY wanted to like this place based off all of the good reviews, but it just didn't do it for me. The pizzas didn't have much flavor surprisingly considering how many toppings there were. The pizzas are well-done, which might not be everyone's style. The griffy sticks didn't taste like garlic bread at all, it was thin with little dough, and the marinara was kind of sweet. We got griffy sticks, the lover boy, and half Malibu / half honey boo boo. I will say I LOVE how you can split whatever pizzas even if they were made with different bases. I've never been to a place that does that, so that's a BIG plus!! I recommend the lover boy of the 3 pizzas we tried.

    Another 5 star visit for best in town thin crust pizza and salads dive. We find the plastic utensils and paper dishes part of the charm. It is amusing to find a table with chairs high enough so we don't feel like our chins are too close to the table! Service is always friendly, accommodating, and prompt.

    At Pizza box, you meet pies at the creaux of artistry and authenticity. Every Pizzaiolo here has true passion for precision with every pie. Every single order that I pickup comes out as a literal work of art. Consistently. It's flat out fun to eat and watch them make it. I have been ordering pizza from this place, probably about the last two years. You can find them on Uber now for pick up or delivery which I think is amazing. Usually, I go for the cheese pizza at the 16 inch I believe and then I put the meatballs on it. the meatballs are mixed with brisket and steak. Runs about $16. My most recent visit, I ended up with the Lover Boy (MUAH )which is basically the same thing as the cheese and meatball I normally get, but with a little more flare, caramelized onions basil leaves brings it together in a way only an artist can do . They use a real old school, brick oven and everything that comes out of there as a work of art. The oven might as well be a brick easel. I have taken it to go, and sometimes we sit and eat there, and I noticed no difference in quality between the two styles of to go and eating in. Usually when you get takeout, you can expect the quality to drop down a couple of notches but not here. The space is intimate inside and very cute and they keep it simple outside with one or two picnic tables which makes for good people watching while you eat or wait . I highly recommend this place and it's part of my regular activities to be here when I want pizza. It's the best in the Burg if you asked me.

    As soon as you walk in, you know you are in for a treat. The pizza oven is right there and the smell is captivating. Highly recommend this small place- you won't be disappointed

    Pizza Box in St Pete is a standout for wood-fired pizza fans. The crust is crisp and flavorful, and the homemade sauce tastes super fresh. Unique touches like chunky pepperoni and solid vegan options make the menu interesting and inclusive. The cozy, artsy vibe and genuinely friendly staff turn every visit into a great experience. It's a small spot that fills up fast--arrive early if you can. If you love pizza, Pizza Box is a must-try in St Pete!

    On our last morning in St. Pete, a group of us ended up here for breakfast. If you've ever visited…read moreSt. Pete, you know a good meal is definitely necessary after a long weekend of late nights. I honestly wasn't that hungry, but with a three-hour drive home ahead of us, I figured I should eat something. I ordered the classic breakfast with hash browns, scrambled eggs, sugar-cured fried bacon, and a biscuit. Everything was cooked well, and it definitely hit the spot. My husband ordered the wings, and the second they arrived, I wished I'd ordered them instead. I helped myself to one, and they were honestly some of the best wings I've ever had. Crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked--they completely stole the show. I also ordered a Bloody Mary, which was pretty good and paired nicely with breakfast. The service was friendly, the location is in a great spot, and our group had a wonderful time. Overall, no complaints at all. I'd definitely come back, especially for those wings!

Patio was super nice in the March weather. The Beer Wall is really fun with a ton of options. Do not necessarily rely on the tap list on their website, as it was slightly different than what was actually available but still plenty of good beers. Love that you don't have to have a whole pint of something and only pay for what you pour. Happy Hour food was really good with the buffalo pizza, the pickle fries, and the pretzel crusted tuna. Everything was done well and came out fresh. If you're looking for a nice casual spot in downtown St. Pete would give this a try.

We were quickly seated at the bar where the staff was incredibly fast and friendly, serving up high-quality foods like their delicious firewood pizza and spaghetti and meatballs. The star of the show, hands down, is their Oven Fire Pizza, Italian Style Two Minutes To Get A Pizza - a must-order that lives up to its name! The energy here is infectious, making it a fantastic destination for dinner, and it's wonderfully kid-friendly with highchairs available. Plus, its step-free entry ensures it's handicap accessible for all guests. We absolutely would return for another memorable meal.

Is it real Italian?? not really, but it is good. Had a few starters... one was the burrata eggplant. It was ok... burrata does not melt, so it is not like other rolatinis or something like that. But it was ok once i asked for red sauce to pour over it. They have this chicken parm that they bring over the chicken and pour the hot cheese over. Very cool dish and tasty. Makes it with Vodka sauce. It tastes fine, but would be better with just marinara (all of us decided that).... Wife had frito misto and enjoyed it too. It is an app, but plenty of food for one small gal. Then ordered desert... very nice they brought us out mini-cannolis for our birthday. We ordered the Tiramisu. It did not come out cold and they put a big glob of choc mousse on top..... who needs that if the tiramisu is good. But the Tiramisu we all decided was not very good. So now the bill comes....When you get the bill they add 15% service fee on there.... for what? The back of house, part is a tip and the rest are owner trying to gouge you so you feel you should give another 20%. I truly hate this..... Look if this is what you expect then charge me $2 more for the dinner... charge me another $1 for the drink.... etc. This is not right. When will you ask me if I went to the bathroom and add $1. All of this is getting out of hand. But here is the coup de gras. So we leave and our friends had valeted. We asked the waiter if they validate and he said yes, I think you get $5.00 off. So we get out there and the valet says... oh yes you get $5.00 off. So my friend hands him $10. NO, it is really $20. But you get $5. off when you eat...... What a money grab, because you know the owners get $$$ from the valet company. Stay away and don't get ripped off. This place is a clip joint and we are one and done!

I ate a few more slices of pizza and seeing if there was no hope in being offered another beer, I just wanted to get out of there. Then a woman came over and without asking, cleared my dear mug, and never even asked if I wanted another. I got her attention and just said can I please have my check as I wanted to leave. After a little bit of time the bartender came back, dropping my check and asking me if I wanted a box for the two slices of pizza that I left. He was completely oblivious that I was even sitting there. I do not blame the bartender for the horrible service. I blame the management. Lesson learned, don't go to Colony Grill and sit at the bar when it's busy. I hate walking out of a restaurant and being completely pissed off because of lack of minimal service.

I also cannot comment on ambiance or service. I ordered three things and sadly didn't enjoy any of them. 1. The penne ala vodka pasta was thicker and sweeter than I thought it would be. Much more similar to a Mac n cheese texture sauce - way too much cream in base. I also got a meatball with it - that had great flavor and texture. It wasn't bad but just not what I expected or really wanted. 2. I love a brick oven style crust so I was so excited to try their cheese pizza after reading other reviews! It was unfortunately so burnt underneath that the entire pizza just tasted bitter. We ended up throwing most of it away. If it wasn't burnt, I imagine it would have been delicious! Good flavor sauce, thick melty cheese and perfectly rolled out crust. Just burnt burnt burnt tasting. 3. I also ordered the bread and it was a bit dense. Nothing special. May be much better served warm out of the oven. Best deal was the little cup of crispy prosciutto to put on stuff! Loved that option and addition! May give them another shot in person but fairly sad I spent $65 on all that (after taxes, fees and delivery tip) and threw away most of it. Hopefully you have a better experience eating there but I wouldn't recommend for delivery.

It had struck me as I was cruising by Kelly's. Just up 4th it was. As I approached I could see the parking could be an issue but not on this day. Found a spot out front and in I went. Not sure what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised. A locals pizza pub with a variety of beers on tap. However, as I peered behind the bar in the cooler was Miller High Life. It is so hard to find those in bottles and this place has them. The gentleman behind the bar came over as he finished with another patron. Two slices of cheese pizza and a High Life please.

The salad it came with was ok, surrounding the center of the lettuce was chunks of cucumbers, tomatoes and chick peas but the dressing had too much oregano in it for my liking, so I didn't thoroughly enjoy it. I will have to come back to try some other things on the menu that intrigued me.
