They sat is a bowl of fresh, delicious,tomato sauce with a dollop of ricotta. And then the bread to soak up the rest of the sauce. Then the pizza. Chewy, crispy dough with flavor, not just plain bread. It was the perfect texture. The sauce and cheese was the perfect ratio and were perfect. Seriously some of the best pizza I've had in Florida. The restaurant is adorable and feels like you're at your family's house having dinner. It reminded my husband and I of our favorite winery in Italy. Last but not least, there's Calogero. Warm and welcoming. Serving simple, delicious, homemade food. This man knows how to cook!!! If you want real Italian cooking, reasonably priced, that's not pretentious, just good food, visit Calogero. If it's a Sunday, get the meatballs with a glass of wine. I guarantee your Monday will be better because when you get up you'll still be thinking about them.

I recently moved to the area and after having Papa John's once I said I would never have it again…read more I was recommended Marco's Pizza by several people and decided to give it a try. They are offering curbside pick up so I definitely used that feature as I had my two little ones with me. I ordered it online and if you order online you'll see that they have deals for doing so. I paid about $35 for two large pizzas, 10 barbecue wings, cheese bread and a 2 L soda. You cannot beat that kind of deal. Upon arriving I did call to ensure that they were still doing the curbside pick up And they assured me that they were and that they would bring out my pizza shortly. I was only waiting for a few minutes but as soon as the worker came outside she apologized so much saying that she was sorry for the wait. Honestly I could tell that they had a lot of people inside and I really just did not wait that long at all. From the time that I ordered until the time that I got my pizza it only took them 30 minutes to make the whole order which is great for such a large order and considering the amount of customers they had inside. They showed extreme professionalism and were very kind. I made sure to take photos of the food because let me tell you it looked so good and after eating it, wow I will definitely be returning. All of the food came out amazing and fresh. I will definitely return soon!!

Somebody new over there? The spacers are suppose to be flat side up. Needless to say one person got stabbed in the mouth because they didn't see it there. Do better Sal's.... The pizza was tasty however it's not anything like Chicago deep dish. Far to much dough. It was like eating pizza and the having a leftover french bread roll after words. Seriously, I could have made a hoagie for 8 people out of the crusts. I know you can't make Chicago pizza in Florida because of the humidity and the difference in the water but to call this Chicago pizza is an insult to Chicago. The only reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1 is the pizza was tasty.

Palace Pizza is a solid four stars for me based strictly on the pizza and garlic knots. I didn't…read moreget a chance to try any of the pasta, although I have to admit it looked pretty delicious coming out. We tried several pizzas, including the pepperoni pizza with the garlic-knot crust, chicken Alfredo pizza, BBQ pizza, and Meat Delight. The pepperoni pizza itself was good, but I was a little disappointed by the garlic knots built into the crust. What's strange is that their regular garlic knots are completely different and AMAZING. Seriously, those were probably one of my favorite things we ordered. If the garlic-knot crust tasted like the standalone knots, that pizza would easily be top-tier. The BBQ pizza and Meat Delight were both pretty good and I would order either again. The chicken Alfredo pizza, however, was my least favorite. I personally didn't enjoy the flavor combination enough to recommend that one. The restaurant has that casual, old-school New York pizza/Italian joint vibe, nothing overly fancy, just a comfortable place to grab a slice or sit down for a meal. The staff was friendly during our visit, and everything felt pretty laid-back. Overall, definitely worth stopping in if you're craving pizza, but do yourself a favor and get an order of the regular garlic knots. Those alone are worth it. I'd come back to try more of the pizza and probably give the pasta a shot next time.

She was incredibly warm, friendly, and helpful, and really made us feel welcome. I started with the bean soup, which was absolutely delicious--warm, flavorful, and comforting. For my main course, I ordered the salmon pasta in vodka sauce, and it was excellent! The salmon was cooked perfectly, and the creamy vodka sauce paired beautifully with the pasta. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmesan, which was also delicious, and we had steamed broccoli on the side. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. We also learned that Palace is a family-owned restaurant and that the owner is Italian, which made the experience feel even more authentic and personal. Between the delicious food and Emerald's wonderful hospitality, we really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend!
