These guys are the best in the Alachua area. They catered a rehearsal dinner for us and everything was fresh and hot. Their Wings are amazing as well. Very nice family owned business. The restaurant is old school with a nice little bar downstairs. Great atmosphere read more

Fantastic wings and really good service! Always kind and efficient! Check out this hidden gem In Alachua

Tried this place out today and honestly was very disappointed. Wings were tiny definitely not jumbo and FLOATING in garlic grease. Garlic dough knots were burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. Cheese sticks wasn't melted. And the pickles were extremely greasy also. Threw away 80% of what we purchased. I don't normally leave bad reviews but this one was not good at all. Was really wanting some good wings. I will say, one person had the fingers and fries and the said they were good. So maybe try that if you go there. But I will choose Zaxbys wings over these any day and Zaxbys is a 3 out of 10 for me. These would be a 1 out of 10. read more

Great place to grab a quick bite to eat after visiting the springs. Pizza comes out piping hot. Wings are phenomenal. Try the Parmesan and garlic. And the fried pickles are nothing to snooze about. They are worth a try too. The owner and staff are super friendly and make it worth the visit. read more

It's exactly what you expect. Just as bad as McDonald's. It's pot luck on what you'll get. You wanted a sausage sandwich with marinara sauce...too bad. Place smells of some kind of disease but I can't put my nose on it. Don't go after dark and park in the parking lot, if you do make sure to have your life insurance policy up to date. The service is what you'd expect too. Just working to get their next fix. read more

Wings were good but pizza?, (it is a pizza place), was terrible! Crust was tuff like eating cardboard. Nothing is cheap anymore, even pizza so no to this place for pizza. They need to learn how to make a pizza crust first. read more

Sooo goooooooooooood I enjoyed everything. I'm from New York and I haven't found a good place out here for pizza everything is so gentrified so I was happy to find this place thank you :) read more

Might be the best wings in the area! Got the hot teriyaki flavor. Wings were big and meaty. Cooked perfectly, cooked crispy but not at all dried out. And they were bathed in sauce. Definitely you're gonna need a bunch of napkins with these. Their pizza is pretty good too. The staff was friendly and welcoming. And their prices are good for the amount of food you get. read more

What a GEM!!! The service was laid back but attentive. The food was amazing! We got two different cheese pizzas and both were fantastic. The honey mustard jumbo wings were good - juicy and flavorful. I didn't get much mustard flavor but the chicken was perfectly cooked. I was impressed by how clean and well organized everything was. I'm super happy we made the choice to stop here for dinner. read more

I hate to complain but other than a friendly delivery driver this was awful. Burned yet cold pizza, supposed to get ham and onion with mushrooms on one side - mushrooms covered the pizza and I saw almost NO ham or onion. Very disappointed. read more

Suppose to be a Large Philly cheesesteak Stromboli. This is horrible. I had to put it back in the oven do to the dough still being soggy. It wasn't done! Im original from Philly and this is horrible!!! A total waste of my money and first time experience! Never again!!! read more

This restaurant has the Best chicken wings that I've had in Florida! I've had takeout wings twice and both times they were excellent. The jumbo wings were cooked perfectly and the sauces were fantastic. A++ I will be back for more. -Kurt V. read more

This place is awesome! Bomb food, friendly service, great prices. We tried the wings (hot honey), specialty pizza (half Italiano/ half 5th avenue), cheesecake, fish sammy, and the fried pork chop. After being on the road all day, Pizza in the Hood def hit the spot! read more

We frequently visit Pizza In The Hood! The staff is ways friendly and the food is delicious! Last night we visited while waiting for our son to finish ball practice. We were greeted right away and had our drinks in the first couple of minutes of sitting down. We ordered an appetizer and wings. We always order our wings extra crispy and they were cooked perfectly! Our fried mushrooms were delicious also. We ordered an xlarge pizza to go! They timed it perfectly so when we were finished up, it was coming out of the oven. Our visit did not quite rise to 5 stars because the to go pizza was a little soggy in the middle of the pie. Having said that..it had great flavor and my kids definitely gobbled it up. We will visit again and might try delivery next time. read more

Per always get local pizza in different places when we pass through for the night. Good pizza, great garlic knots and a cold beer. Thanks

We came in from Miami to visit a friend and decided to try Pizza In The Hood. Pizza was super fresh and the chef was very friendly. We also ordered fries and mozzarella sticks. Very very fresh and delicious. Our waitress was also very very friendly. She made sure we were comfortable and happy at the restaurant. I loved the environment of this restaurant. The music, art, and ambiance was very welcoming. We will definitely stop here again when we travel to Gainesville! read more

Good food nice people working there. Sometimes the phone doesn't get answered and it goes to a voice mail that hasn't been setup. Xlarge Pizza and wings is what we got. I wasn't comfortable giving my credit card over the phone before I picked up dinner. It turned out to be ok but I wasn't very confident. read more

Great food! Their pizza was a thin crust and very good as were their chicken strips. Tricky parking lot but worth the maneuvering to pick up our food. We thought their prices were fair. Friendly bunch of ppl!! read more

I don't know if the reviews on yelp are some friends or employees posting them, but what I got came nowhere close to them. The pizza was bland, unappetizing and looked as though it was frozen and took out of a box and put in an oven. Very disappointed with the taste and eye appeal. Price was good. Staff was friendly. But friendly doesn't make the pizza any better. I've had better from the frozen section of a grocery store. The spaghetti had too much sugar in the sauce. My 7 year old grandson who really likes spaghetti said it didn't taste right and ate warmed up week old spaghetti from his birthday that Grams made instead. The wings were above average. Average in size but again too much sugar in the sauce. This was the first and last visit to the hood. read more

We ordered a large pizza, half pepperoni, half black olives and the pepperoni side with no sauce. At most, we should have been charged $13.50 for a large pepperoni, we were minus sauce and 1/2 the pepperoni. It was a one topping pizza. Also ordered 20 wings, very small wings... 1/2 terriyaki and half hot. We both ate one piece of pizza and I had one wing. My first bite of the pizza I couldn't really chew it. It was bad... my friend had no sauce on her side. She couldn't chew it. I thought I would just eat the wings and I noticed when I went to get a second wing that it looked like there weren't quite 10, I counted them and there were only 7 after I ate one. I then counted The others and there were only 9 and she had'nt tried them yet, she was still gnawing on the pizza, or trying too. The wings are 10.99 for 20 medium sized wings and the pizza should have been $13.50 at the most. Because taking away items on a pizza shouldn't be more money... if you look at the pictures of the food it looks really good online, but, you are not getting what that picture looks like. And then when I called to tell them about it, the girl said she didn't know if they would remake the pizza! then she said she would, I was about to go back up there, and we just decided to get our money back, which is when we saw the pricing discrepancy of an extra $10 the bill should've been $24.49, we were charged $32.87. The menu prices have not changed. I am sure the box would have tasted better than this pizza... we would have been able to chew through it at least. I am a sous chef in Houston Texas and I know exactly how restaurants are ran. If you can't count to 20 I just don't know what to say... in my kitchen we weigh things and re-package for correct counts on many items. It must be friends going online and leaving these good reviews because this food is not what it looks like in the pictures and is really bad... read more

Amazing food, lovely service, the wings were what I look for in a chicken wing. Plus the art was phenomenal and they promoted a really great message! Education and non-violence read more

Soooo good and a super chill, mom and pop vibe. The pizza crust alone and garlic knots are off the charts bomb!

Tasty pizza at a decent price, but too light on the toppings. I had a large pepperoni, onions and green peppers, and all three toppings were skimpy. read more

Pizza was straight up bread, the shrimp tasted fresh, wouldn't buy pizza from here unless you wanna pay extra for sauce & cheese because it was missing both. The crust was real nice and crispy like a thin crust just isn't my type of pizza I guess. But for those who like thin crust with not alot of sauce this yo spot read more

This is a great spot to chill if you're looking for a relaxing chat with friends. The pizza is about as plain as it gets, but it's adequate. The wings, however, were exceptional. I was tipped off by the server that the restaurant had their own flavor of hot sauce so I opted to give em a try. Not bad! They're not large but the quantity and price make up for their lack of size. read more

I stopped in for lunch the other day, and wouldn't you know it, I was the first one there. I was greeted by whom I assume was the owner although I didn't ask. I ordered the two slice, 6 wings, and a drink combo. (Best deal ever!). The slices came out hot and perfectly crispy. As for the wings I got lemon pepper wet, and I was not disappointed. Best wings I've had around here. Pizza In The Hood will most definitely be getting my business in the future, probably a bit too much of my business to be honest! read more

It was not NY style like the menu states and it was terrible. The pizza was awful, crust was bland and tasted like a pita, veggies on pizza were hardly cooked, and wings were mushy and salty. Frozen pizza and wings would've been better and less expensive. read more

My family and I really wanted to keep supporting the local businesses during this time (Covid 19), as best we could within our means. Pizza in the Neighbor Hood is one of our favorite places, and we miss eating there! I called in an order of wings and fries today for the fam. When I went to pick the order up, I was really impressed with the efforts they are taking to keep everything clean and safe for the guests when they come in to pick up their order. The wings were amazing as always, and you can't beat the price! Please folks, keep supporting these local businesses if you are able. Let's keep them alive so they can be there for us to visit when this is all behind us! Maybe consider tipping a little more than you usually would for take out because these folks that depend on tips aren't getting near as much with the restaurants being closed (or limited seating) for dine-in. Thank you to everyone at Pizza in the Neighbor Hood! Looking forward to when we can come eat at your establishment again! read more

Love this place! Excellent New York style pizza. They also have wings and some other stuff; but I've never been able to pass up their pizza. It's hard to get truly good NY style pizza outside NYC; but this place has it. read more

I have eaten here several times. The food is very cheap. The portions are generous. The 2 slices of pizza and 6 wings deal is hard to beat for the money. I also highly recommend the mango habanero wings. They were very good. If you manage to come in on a Sunday the soul food menu is 2nd to none in the area. The Mac and Cheese is incredible. The Smothered Pork Chops are as good as any in the area. The soul food menu as a stand alone gets 5* in my book. read more

This place deserves 10 stars if it was possible! Amazing food and amazing service, every time I come here I'm never disappointed

4 Stars with a disclaimer: We've ordered wings from here several times and they are fantastic. The hot garlic is my favorite. We've always done take-out, as the inside is relatively small with just a few tables. The service has always been fine, other than today. I've called in my order at least six times previously without issue. Today I called in my order, and when I arrived to pick it up, the girl told me that she was the one whom I spoke with on the phone and that I did not order 24 jumbo wings, but rather ordered the "special". I said I didn't order the special, I ordered 24 jumbo wings. She gave me a lot of attitude, which was disappointing because I wasn't even initially bothered that my order got messed up. Mistakes happen, I understand that. However, when she preceded to be incredibly rude and basically call me a liar and tell me I ordered something that I absolutely did not order, that definitely upset me and tainted my perception of this place. She told me I'd have to wait 25 minutes for my order, didn't offer to comp my meal, or at the very least give me a discount, which is 100% the right way to treat a customer when a mistake is made. I give Pizza in the Hood 4 stars because the wings are very good, but when thinking about getting wings in the future, this experience will impact whether I go back and if I do, how soon. I do believe in second chances, so I'd like to say I'll give them another try in the future, but if service continues to be rude, I'm happy to take my business elsewhere. read more

First time trying them out last night and we were thoroughly impressed! Service was awesome! Pizza was great! Prices were below the locals! We'll be in for the soulfood Sunday soon! read more

A couple of weeks ago I picked up diner for my family. I did not look....bad choice. The mushrooms were rocks and the wings were dead branches. I called, got the apology, got the promise of credit. I sent my daughter to pick up the replacement today. She got excuses. We already gave you this replacement. No you did not. Well we don't have anything, I remember a call but we don't have anything. The cook don't know anything about it. You have to come back. She called me and I got the same run around. It is one thing to offer a promise, another to honor them. I will NEVER go back. You cannot take my money for service and then provide me with nothing. I work hard for my money. I give to those in need. I don't give to a business to get nothing in return. One star is too many.......! read more

UPDATED (10/21/2016) The owner called today and was very understanding of the situatoin. He stated he would address the problem with the counter girl and either let her go or write her up. I will probably give it another shot. and YES - the money was reimbursed! (will now give 2 stars - will review again when we revisit) (10/20/2016)I probably will not be able to express how upset I am after my visit to Pizza in the Hood. We had been excited to try the new place even though word in the street hasn't been too favorable...Ordered two pies for take out - was told 15 minutes. So my daughter and I arrive to pick up and we pay right away. Then we wait... not a big deal. One pizza comes out of the kitchen and I ask the person behind the counter if the pizza was mine she said yes - I asked if it will get cold while the other one was cooking. She explained that it was in a warmer but she could put it in a bigger one in the back and I said no it was ok there. Then I stated that it has been a bit more than the promised 15 minutes. She did not reply but she did go back in the kitchen and say (in a loud voice) "That woman up front is such a b**ch" and then Repeated the conversation with the kitchen staff. When she came out of the kitchen I told her we could hear everything she just said and I didn't appreciate being called that in front of my daughter - she told me it wasn't about me even though it obviously was - and then proceeded to argue with me . She did not apologize and just smirked at the other employees like she thought the whole thing was funny. I spoke with the manager who did apologize and I told him I wanted my money back but he said he didn't have the authority to give it back only the owner did - now I'm waiting for the owner to call me. Oh and the pizza wasn't very good at all. (it was underdone) read more
