    Rigatoni
    Jessica N.

    Gave this spot a try while visiting San Antonio and although I appreciated the interior and how homey it felt, the food was a miss. The Bianco Pizza was good, the crust was fluffy and the bottom was crisp but I didn't taste much of the ricotta. I also had to wait about 40 minutes for it. I was really dissatisfied with the pasta. The Rigatoni was undercooked, it was slightly hard and not in the al dente way. The tomato sauce lacked depth and the meatballs were slightly dry. I also did not like that I had to pay for water, I don't think any restaurant should do that. Overall, 5/10.

    Ordered delivery through uber eats. I got into my hotel pretty late so most places were closed, but Pizza Vesuvio was open and looked delicious. I ordered a pepperoni, Canadian bacon, and jalapeño pizza. It arrived in a reasonable amount of time and was just as good in person as the pictures make it look. Delicious pizza and well worth the few extra dollars it took to get it delivered.

    Best Estromboli that I've ever had. It took a while to make, but it came out piping hot and fresh, and it was a huge piece stuffed full of various meats, cheeses, and marinara sauce. Exactly what I needed after looking for a place to eat that hadn't closed or shut down their food service for the evening. The staff also didn't charge me for my second bottled water, so that was nice of them.

    Quattro Staggioni Pizza. It is 2 slices Caruso Pizza, Bianco Pizza, Vesuvio Pizza and Genovese Pizza.  Soooooo goood!

    WORTH THE WAIT! If you can't wait a little longer than you're used to for your food... this is not the place for you. That being said, everything here is made with fresh ingredients and all oven made. No microwave here. We had the pizza Quattro Stagioni and it was amazing. Crust perfectly thin and crispy and great flavors on all 4 types of pizza. We also had the Tiramisu, which was amazing. Light in texture, not too sweet and a great end to a perfect meal. The star of our dinner was the Stromboli. Perfectly crisp crust and all the ingredients were fresh and incredibly flavorful. Well balanced, and the best Stromboli we've ever had. Comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. Wait staff is more than attentive. The owner cares about his customers, quality of food, and your overall dining experience. This is a family owned restaurant who uses recipes from their family and it shows.

    This pizza spot is so cute and quaint, it's a little Casita turned into a Beautiful pizza, place. They have really good wine on the menu, the ladies that are serving are so nice and attentive. And overall, it's a great spot for a date night. also, the food is delicious. The pizza crust is so thin and crispy. We loved it.

    I'm really surprised to get the horrible customer service that I received today. The manager or owner who is usually normally nice and a good person to talk to was a demon today. I was waiting for 30 minutes after I was told it only be about 15 minutes and when he finally brought my food, I was like man you guys are taking a long time. You told me 15 minutes and it's been 30. Right away said we're busy. I said I've been waiting a while then he was like you want me to refund your money after already paid. I said no. Just give me my food. After me already paying and wasting my time he was trying to keep my food I already paid for. He was extremely rude and use profanity. I mean, he just escalated this out of nowhere. Again in the past, he's been super nice to be my girlfriend and I'm not sure if he didn't remember me or what but maybe he was just in a bad mood or I caught him on a bad day but needless to say I will never come back to his establishment again. to use profanity towards a paying client when I just simply asked why were you guys so late is unacceptable. He blew up and lost it. Maybe he is on his period bleeding marinara sauce. Not sure but that was uncalled for. Horrible customer service 1 star. Will never return even though we like his food. Disappointed in his rude behavior. I read reviews that stated the same thing of him being rude to clients.

    Came on a Saturday night, got delicious food and amazing service. Had the entire back patio to ourselves. I had previously ordered from them to go and that was delicious as well. Definitely recommend, wonderful people and place!

    Found me a new pizza place. We were at first Friday and doing some shopping around the block. I have been wanting to try this place and my friend was leaving so we decided to give it a try. Staff was friendly. We sat at the front so we can people watch. We ordered two pizzas: the capri and bianco. We ordered some drinks while we waited for our food. My friend ordered a blue moon in a fancy glass (lol), my husband ordered a michelob ultra on draft, and I ordered a sweet white wine (moscato). The outside seating was very nice. The weather was on the cooler side but not anything too unbearable. The heater where we sat was not working but overall it was still nice. They also had indoor seating and seating in the back. No matter where you sit it's nice. Our pizza did take time to come out. However, you could tell that it was all freshly made. I have to say that the pizza is the star of this show. I enjoyed every single bite when we did get our food. Not one complaint from our table. We left extremely satisfied. Definitely would recommend this place for a nice date night, family night, celebration, whatever! The restaurant is nice and staff is very attentive. The prices are a little high but worth every penny. I would come back and now I know my new first Friday stop for a bite.

    Food was good but the Waite was sure long. Two pizzas was enough to feed about 5 of us. I had always seen the restaurant houses on Southtown but had never tried them. The crust was very thin and crispy. Service could have been more communicative.

    Located in the Lavaca area, it has a great atmosphere and an at home feel. The staff is wonderful and the pizza was amazing. Can't wait to go back.

    Pizza crust bread?

    I wouldn't pay more than $13 for this pizza. Sad I paid over $34 for 1 pizza. I don't know if they're trying to be fine dining, but getting pure life bottled water and can soda makes no sense . Pasta is average and the wait time was over 30 minutes for average food. For better food and service go to stout house instead. This place is terrible!

    Came here late night and there was a good amount of other customers. The boss was very friendly and checked up on us every now and then. Water is not free. It's $1.50 each bottle, even for the ones originally placed on the table. There might have been only 1 chef working since it took about 45 minutes for our order to come out which may be understandable since it was a complicated one. The pizza was pretty good. It held all the ingredients and none fell off when I picked up a slice. The bianco was my favorite: very creamy.

    I've been a yelper for so long and never have I written a review. This place deserves my first review. The ambience and hospitality was 11/10. Esteban was the nicest with us. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed. Pretty twinkled lights in the patio, perfect weather, amazing pizza, linguine chicken Alfredo and lasagna were melting amazingly good. We ordered the sweet red wine. I'm definitely coming back here. It was the perfect date night especially since it's my birthday and it definitely made me feel special.

    So let me preface this review with this...if you have ever been to Detroit there is a famous…read moreDetroit style pizza place called Buddys (or at least this is what I was told, I'm not from there lol)...we went to Detroit for an event and had buddys, we had the Detroiter and a Cesar salad and it was great, top 5 in my opinion of pizza I've ever eaten and that's saying a lot being from NY. Fast forward to my visit to Via 313 also a Detroit establishment serving pizza...and let me just say!! It is a must go!! The pizza was amazing (we had the detroiter again) and also the Cesar salad...our friends also had other various pizzas and they all highly enjoyed it. The service was awesome and the restaurant is clean and has a cool ambiance. It was my birthday so they gave me free cinnamon sticks with a cream cheese icing...Sooooo good!! Def a 5 star experience! You have to check them out

    I was confused by the service the night we came in…read more The pizza was perfect, as usual. The Detroiter is crispy, chewy, buttery, and all the delicious things rolled into this pillowy goodness. We ordered the arugula salad with goat cheese, they being it the salad and say they were out of goat cheese, and I was okay with it. Then they come back and say, we did have gorgonzola. I was confused. So they put down the cheese and it's goat cheese. Anyway, the salad was incredible, but let's be real, the goat cheese makes ALL the difference. They were also out of my man's go-tos on tap. Which was a slight bummer for him. Service is always friendly and the restaurant is very cool, like escape the heat cool, with a chill vibe. I still love the heck out of this pizza!
