Ordering on the phone was difficult, but we got it done! Food arrived in about 30 min so not bad. Not I must preface this with I am from NYC, and as such a pizza snob. If something claims to be NYC pizza it must be not only style, but taste. This pizza was there in style (10/10), and for NYC taste I give is a 6/10, which is actually not bad. I liked it much better than the rest of my family. If it was just the pizza this would have been a 3.5 review. Unfortunately, the mozzarella sticks were very floury, telling me they weren't fresh or cooked well, and the salad was, well, inedible. It was suppose to be a garden salad. It was mostly tomatoes and onions and the little lettuce there was in the order was very soggy. Ugh. If you order from here stick to the pizza. Ugh.

My go to pizzeria for Friday was closed, so it was time to try a new spot. Sitting just over the…read morestate line in Rossville, it was actually closer than some of there pizzerias I have frequented in Chattanooga. Cute place, with both inside and outside seating, and with the weather looking a bit foreboding, we selected inside. So, what did they get right......let's start within the crust, brick oven, thin crust, always the best pizza base. I would offer none of their regular pizza offerings are what one typically finds at a local pizzeria, love it, and there are plenty of offerings whether you seek a traditional red or white base, with pesto options as well. It's an incredible range of pizzas that they offer, along with a few other Italian offerings. We ordered the Dolce Vita off the regular menu and that evening's special, The Creep, along with the Fig Amafi starter. The starter was nice. The pizzas were great, and whoever came up with the recipe for the Creep, you're a mad scientist, that stone ground mustard aioli, what a beautifully subtle touch. So what went wrong, our server was perfect, but she was undone by the kitchen as it took three tries to finally get the pizza order right. That put one person completely off eating cycle with the rest of the table, as you might imagine. While I can appreciate it might take some time for the pizza prep, the wait time for the drinks was horrific. The overall meal experience was too slow, some of that was the pizza error but everything was slow to arrive. One other comment about food safety, not sure why a guest was allowed in the food prep area, that's a real no-no. Plus one of the orders for the outside eating area was delivered via the street as opposed to the doorway in the rear of the restaurant. Another food safety issue, it's a minor thing, but why make such a basic mistake. This pizzeria has the potential to be a five-star. Pay attention to the little things, and maybe broaden your beer selection. The potential here is clear, and I will try one more visit to see if Cesario's can become part of my regular pizzeria rotation, or if it becomes relegated to a pizza shop I visit on occasion for a carry-out.

The wood-fired, Neapolitan-style pizza? Phenomenal. Crust so good it deserves its own fan base…read more But service is a gamble--some staff are great, others act like you've interrupted their mop break. Mopping seems to be their favorite pastime. Industrial floor cleaner aroma while you eat? A given. Asked to sit in a certain section but was told it was unavailable due to mopping--only to watch a couple and a Latin family get seated there minutes later. This has happened more than once, and it's hard not to notice the pattern. Drinks? $3.99 across the board, from fountain soda to Jarritos. To-go orders come with a "convenience" fee. Tip with a card? Another surcharge, and the servers don't even get those tips directly. Pizza: worth the hype. Everything else? A mess, literally and figuratively.

Located at the end of a small strip mall, it is on the small side, but they pack a lot into the…read morespace available. Parking is pretty decent for the area, with at least one handicapped space right in front of the entrance door. Walking in was surprisingly cozy, with wood on the walls and muted colors for the seating. We were greeted on entry and seated quickly. Seating is a mix of tables and booths. Our waitress left menus and took our drink order as we sat down. The menu is rather extensive. The primary cuisine is Mexican, but they also offer traditional recipe pizzas as well as chicken wings. Many dishes are cooked in a wood fired oven. Our drinks came quickly, and we still needed time to make our selections. After a few more minutes, our waitress returned and we placed our orders. We did not receive any salsa and chips for the table, which was a bit surprising for a Mexican restaurant. We decided to order their homemade guacamole to start. The appetizer came out in maybe five minutes. The portion was much smaller than expected, and the guacamole was bland. It needed a good addition of both salt and garlic to improve the flavor. In addition, the chips were straight from the bag, without even being warmed. The food took about ten minutes or so to be brought to the table. The Pollo a la lena is two wood fired pieces of chicken, along with salad, refried beans, and rice. It also comes with your choice of wheat or corn tortillas. The chicken was tender and juicy, very well spiced with additional flavor from the wood oven. The refried beans are not the typical gray mush but actually have noticeable black beans. The rice was typical, but included corn, peas, and carrot pieces for additional flavor. The salad included crisp lettuce and diced tomatoes, onions, and jalapenos. The corn tortillas are made in house and compared well to the other components of the dish. I would absolutely order this outstanding dish again. The pollo loco was another good dish. The ratio of chicken to rice was good, and the amount of cheese was less than typical, which allowed more of the other flavors to come through. The asada torta was also good. The ingredients were plentiful compared to the bread, and everything seemed fresh and very flavorful. Even the french fries were well made. The chimichanga was the least liked dish, but still tasted good. It was prepared well and had a nice cheese topping. On it's own it would be a good choice, only suffering in comparison to the other outstanding dishes. One word of caution: the salsa accompanying the pollo a la lena and the torta is surprisingly spicy. The heat is deceptive, coming on slowly and lingering awhile. Although I was surprised at first taste, I included it in every bite of chicken, so it is addictive. Based on this visit, I definitely want to try more options from the menu, especially the pizzas.

The sauce is naturally sweet - a sign that they use great tomatoes to start with. The ambiance is casual. Order at the front, find a seat, enjoy. This place does a helluva good takeaway business - I'd rather do that than use grubhub or door dash which just adds cost and helps ruin product quality and branding. Drinks are self-service and the food is brought fresh to the table. We will definitely be back!
