It's such a humble, warm neighborhood place, but the food? Truly a 10/10 comfort food moment. The pizza was so flavorful -- we ordered half pepperoni and half Hawaiian/cheese and every slice was amazing. The wings and potato wedges were delicious too, and I have to mention their house 1000 island, ranch, and even the ketchup... everything tasted so fresh and good. The atmosphere was honestly the cutest. There were regulars hanging out, people jumping up to sing karaoke, and a little arcade inside that made it feel like the perfect casual game-night spot. It's the kind of place where you can grab pizza to go for a movie night at home, or stay, have a few beers, and just enjoy the vibe. They also have 5 beers for $15, which you really can't beat. Elie took such great care of us and made us feel so welcome. He was incredibly friendly and thoughtful and even surprised me with a complimentary homemade brownie, which was another 10/10. Such a sweet touch. Even the DJ running karaoke was super professional, which made the whole night feel extra fun and lively. It's rare to find a place that feels this genuine and welcoming while also serving food that's this good. I'll definitely be back for the pizza again very soon. Highly recommend stopping by -- even if it's just to grab a pizza to go for a cozy movie night at home.

This time our lemon pepper wings had close to no seasoning at all and, again, no salt in the seasoning. The pastas we ordered, while still a good taste, now are coming with much less.

The Cali Killer was mostly lettuce and tomato, barely any meat. And there was avocado on one small end of the sandwich but nowhere else. The Philly was just not good. There was barely any meat, and what little it had was obviously not fresh. I think they tried to over grill it to make it seem fresh but that just made it worse. There wasn't much cheese on it either. Overall it was dry and empty. The wings were OK but pretty soggy except for the edges. The ranch and the beer was good. The place is chill but the employees could be a bit friendlier.

Just tried the tikka masala naan pizza at Pizza Twist and this is Indian fusion done right. Imagine creamy, spiced tikka masala sauce layered over soft, chewy naan, topped with melty cheese and perfectly seasoned toppings. It's bold, comforting, and totally addictive. This isn't just pizza it's a cultural mashup that works so well. Whether you're a fan of Indian cuisine or just looking to spice up your pizza game, this dish is a must-try. Pizza Twist is bringing something fresh and exciting to the table, and trust me, your taste buds will thank you. They also have traditional pizzas available as well! read more

Just tried out the new Pizza Twist/Naan Twist spot, and it's a solid win! The classic pizza here is genuinely great. Seriously, the cheese was amazingly stringy--a perfect cheese pull every time. If you're a purist, their classic is spot on. But the real magic is the fusion. We also grabbed the Lamb Biryani and Lamb Tikka Masala, and both were flavorful and satisfying. Dipping the soft naan bread into that rich tikka masala sauce was the perfect combo. This place is a fantastic mix if you can't decide between Italian and Indian! Highly recommend checking it out. read more

I placed a pretty big order via DoorDash (I didn't realize that party pizzas were HUGE, I thought they were normal size large) and the gentleman probably had some trouble getting to my place due to gates. Two huge pizzas and two bags with other items on top of it. He was so kind regardless of his probable struggle. I noticed that two two-liters of soda haven't arrived and the DoorDash app's ONLY option was to cancel the whole order. I didn't want to cancel the whole order as that would take away the store's revenue and my nice driver's tip so I called the store. I asked them if they could just remove the soda from the order but they insisted that they bring them to me. The two people I talked to on the phone were once again SO nice. A driver named David came to bring the two soda bottles and yet again I was met with kindness even though it was probably a pain to drive just for some soda. Thank you to everyone at Marcello's, genuinely. A pizza delivery helped me look at the world a little bit differently. Sounds cheesy but, it's true. TL:DR -- the food was also really, really good. Good quality, good price. Will continue to support

Unfortunately, each one declined over time until it eventually closed, leaving just one location standing. After this visit, it's easy to see the writing on the wall. We were seated, and when our server came to take our drink order, we ordered our food at the same time to save time. There were only three other parties in the restaurant, and one had already been served. Despite that, it took 50 minutes for a single large hand tossed pizza to arrive you heard it 50 minutes for a hand tossed not a deep dish but hand tossed. I eventually had to flag down the only waitress to ask what was taking so long because we had a movie to get to. To top it off, we weren't offered drink refills until after we had finished our meal. The pizza was enjoyable, but the service was painfully slow and inattentive. It was a frustrating experience that reminded me of the long waits and lackluster service you'd expect at Shakey's, not the Romano's I remember.

This is my favorite local pizza spot, hands down. I wish I lived closer! Slice House is known for…read moretheir by-the-slice pizzas which come quick and hot in 4 different styles (new york, Detroit, Sicilian, and grandma style). The ingredients on all the pizzas I've had so far always taste a step above most other pizza spots. This is certainly the highest quality quick casual pizza place I know for sure. I usually get two slices as I'm a big guy, but honestly just one slice a drink would probably be good enough for most people. My favorite which they have every time is the "Wise Guy" which comes with pepperoni, two types of sausage, chili oil, ricotta dollops, and green onion. The crispy under crust might be the secret to making it a 10/10 pizza in my book. I also got the "traditional" this time which was a pepperoni and sausage Sicilian style pizza on fat square slice of foccocia bread. It's not as good as the wise guy, but the meat and cheese on soft fluffy bread is a killer combination. My friend got the chicken bacon ranch, another New York style slice. I wasn't as big a fan, but I I'm not usually a fan of chicken pizzas as it is so I'm sure others would still love it. He definitely did! The service is always quick and great and the slices cost between $6-9 if I recall correctly, which isn't bad for slices of this size and quality in my opinion. Note, I have been to a location at Universal City Walk which was way more expensive so the prices can change drastically based on location. Overall this place needs to be in your rotation if you like quick, quality pizza. I spread the word whenever I can!
