This was a great pizza experience. Big open area when you walk in, and I sat at the bar. They have a couple draft beer options and some cocktails that are $3 off during happy hour. I got the diavola pizza. Neapolitan style is my favorite, and when it came out it was amazing. The tomato sauce had the perfect level of acidity, and the dough complemented it really well. They have a small lot plus some free and paid street parking nearby. Service was great. Definitely would come again. read more

I drove across town 25 minutes to try this establishment as it came highly reviewed. Greeted and seated promptly. Started off with an old fashioned of which was standard $14. Then saw a unique appetizer salad item on menu "Involtini" $16. It was a great appetizer consisting of arugula, and goat cheese wrapped in prosciutto, with an impressive large thin sliced piece of Parmesan on top drizzled with a balsamic reduction. Very unique and good, I look forward to replicating at home with a little more balsamic. I ordered the Settebello $21 pizza as a main entree of which I thought was advertised with pancetta, mushrooms and Italian sausage. Pizza came out hot and fresh, but with prosciutto instead of the perceived menu listed pancetta. Pizza sauce was good, the sausage and mushrooms were great. Crust was a little doughy, not crispy but charcoal charred in places. Not phenomenal but not bad, middle of the road overall. Service started off great but fell flat to the floor. Drinks and food came out on time indicating bar staff and kitchen staff were on point. Waiting staff could up their game. No check up or check in. No offers for drink refills or another round. I had to ask for refills on water. Final bill $56.35 for one drink, appetizer and pizza for a solo dinner. Three (3) stars at best! Room for improvements. read more

Settebello Pizzeria is a good spot to have some pizza, especially in the Pasadena area. The pizza's are freshly made to order and have a variety of options to choose from. I would rank the service a 5/5. They were very helpful and accommodating. The restaurant has an industrial atmosphere with large space to sit many groups. 4/5 The pizzas are solid 3.5/5. While I have other favorites in LA the whole experience is worth it. read more

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana - Capricciosa and Ragu pizzas - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

I haven't been here since they from their previous location on Colorado. The space is more open and spacious. There's parking on the street and in back. Service is very prompt and friendly. We shared the Insalata Grande and Romana, both were good but especially the Romana. The arancini was top notch, really crisp outside with a very savory tomato sauce. The Settebello pizza is a must try, I think it's their signature pie with sausage and mushroom. We tried the meatball, Polpette, not as good as the Settebello but still delicious. Overall a great pizza place. 5 stars read more

Came here with my brother Greg, I was craving some pizza and we walked past this place and decided to take a peek. The vibe inside was nice. Very spacious and a nice place to have a late lunch early dinner. We were greeted immediately and we sat at a booth. I ordered a Pinot and Cary (our waiter) suggested a beer for my brother. We ordered a margherita pizza and bruschetta. It was delicious and came out fast. So much flavor and just the right crisp! Our waiter Cary was so nice and very attentive. We definitely will come again! Highly recommend the place to anyone visiting Pasadena read more

The food was good. I ordered takeout, when I arrived they hadn't even made my food so I had to wait an additional 20 minutes, so a total of 1 hour from when I ordered online, their ordering website said that the food would be ready when I arrived so that was annoying. Ambiance was very loud and lively and the place was busy with lots of patrons, many waiting to be seated. Not sure if it was a bad day or a busy day or what but I've loved this restaurant and been a patron for years going back to their old location. Seemed as if they didn't know how to fit all the parties even though there were plenty of open tables. Front desk hostess seemed either inexperienced or struggled with understanding me when I spoke English, not her fault I suppose but I felt like I was completely forgotten as a customer sitting at the bar waiting. read more

Very chic place. Very open atmosphere with bar in the middle. We ended up sitting at the bar as they were quite busy. Cocktail was okay. Bruchetta I was not a fan of no flavor at all. However I loved the salad and pizza. Both my favorite. The salad good enough to share between two people delicious and the dressing was good. The ice cream I wanted was sold out so I tried the other flavor basically eating a cold snickers bar. It was good just not my favorite. Overall good place! read more

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana - Margherita - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

Whatever pizza dough they're using, I love it because the pizza crusts are so fluffy! We ordered 2 pizzas and a prosciutto which came with focaccia flat bread. I'm normally not a fan of focaccia because I've had a bunch of hard ones, but this is one of the best I've had because of how fluffy it was. As for the pizza toppings, I thought they were alright. For the Margherita, I couldn't really taste much of the tomato sauce until I got close to the crust, so from the tip and working my way toward the crust was mostly just mozzarella cheese. The carbonara was a bit weird because the mozzarella cheese layer was thicker than the pizza dough itself. The bacon slices were also very thin that there was almost no texture. Overall, the main thing I liked about both were the fluffy pizza crusts. The prosciutto was definitely a hit for me. I normally don't go out of my way for this but glad my boyfriend suggested it. They gave a generous amount of sliced ham and the cheese cubes and sun dried tomatoes were delicious! read more

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana - Pizza Carbonara, Margherita and prosciutto - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

Hubbers recently brought home the Settebello pizza for me to try and I truly loved it, so we agreed that should we both find ourselves within a 5-mile radius, we'd make a stop. It wasn't long after that experience when we finally were nearby. Never mind we were full coming from a family get together not too far away; stopping here was a must. A spot opened up on their lot behind the building as we arrived so we were lucky in that regard. The place was poppin' as we walked in, and with luck being on our side still, we availed of a couple of seats at the bar. I got the chance to take a good look around. The decor screamed an Italian theme, for sure. Nicely done, might I add, with little items and pictures among other things that sorta made me forget for a second I was in Pasadena. Started with a couple of brewskis as we scanned through the menu. Everything looked so good it took us a good minute to decide. It finally came down to two items: BEET SALAD: I will admit this - I can't stand beets. Taste, texture, aroma - just all of it, not for me. I was hesitant to try it but Hubbers really like beets. I'll be happy to say this place found a way for me to like it. It wasn't even about the beets, but they put together other items to make it enjoyable. The strong aroma of goat cheese and the crunch of the almonds sorta neutralized my dislikes, and since I love arugula, it ended up being a winner. The amount of vinaigrette splashed through was perfect. Everything tasted so fresh. I honestly liked it! PIZZA POLPETTE: Hubbers asked for it cooked extra crispy, but he remembered to ask a couple of minutes after we put in our order. Our server did inform his colleagues working the brick oven, and they might have forgotten because it wasn't as crispy as we would have wanted. However! It didn't really take away the pie's overall flavor. The dough is what makes each bite, so good! They were also generous with the amount of toppings. As full as we were, can't believe we had more than one slice each! BAMBOLINI: We initially turned down dessert, but Hubbers decided to put in an order of these round goodies to have at home. I had a bite the next day, and I'll say it's best to have at the restaurant. FOOD: 4.5. SERVICE: 5. Staff were amazing and attentive. VALUE: 4. A bit pricey, but worth it. PARKING: Street and Private lot in the back. We didn't have trouble finding a spot in the lot on a Saturday night. OVERALL: 4.5. There will be visits in the future, be it dine in or takeout, but we will return! read more

Totally changed my mind about this place. Food is great, service is great. I don't know, maybe I was in a bad mood when I came the other time? read more

Just moved back to LA and wanted to find a solid pizza spot for when I visit Pasadena. I'm so glad I came here. I ordered the Quattro Formaggi (with sausage and garlic added), Insalata and a Rusty Hen. All three were delicious! If I had to be a harda** I'd say the pizza could have cooked for a minute longer, but I'll just specify well done next time. The Rusty Hen made my tastebuds happy, and the bartender - Evan - was super attentive. I will definitely be back, hope this helps! read more

One of my new favorite pizza spots! Settebello has 3-6 PM happy hour and pizza deals. But what's better than a good deal is their quality of service and food! I ordered a classic Margherita pizza and another one with hot pepperoni. Both were fresh out of the oven with melt-in-your-mouth cheese and just so delicious at every bite. The staff manage the busy hours well and make the conscious efforts to check in with each table multiple times. I love the date night ambiance as well. I'll be back to try more of their pizzas and speciality cocktails! read more

My husband & I tried this place for the first time and will definitely be back! He got the settebello pizza and I got the capricciosa and they were both delicious! Our server was very attentive and friendly, as well. I don't know his name but he was a nice gentleman with tattoos. The atmosphere is very open with beautiful natural lighting, as well. We will definitely be back to try other pizzas. read more

4.5/5 Solid Neopolitan pizza place. I love potato toppings on pizza haha, and was lucky that their market special happened to be a potato pizza that day! I feel the dough could have been chewier though and parts of the pizza were a bit too salty. The bruschetta was alright; I would have preferred to have some cheese with it instead of pancetta. The insalata was great. Tiramisu was delicious!! The inside is spacious and beautiful. Small parking lot on the side on Boston St with around 2-3 spaces left on a Wednesday afternoon 12:30. Ample street parking with a 1 hr limit. Great service. read more

I enjoyed Settebello more than I thought I would! Came on a weeknight and the restaurant was busy-ish. The space is huge, plenty of seats and easy to sit a party with kids. The pizzas we ordered were all delicious and the portion sizes were large enough for 2 pizzas, 2 salads for 4 people + getting dessert nearby. Parking available in an adjacent lot or plenty of street parking. read more

It's always really good. Very consistent. Just bummed they took off the pizzas from happy hour menu In my opinion the small bites on the happy hour menu are not worth the price, you're better off ordering from the regular menu. read more

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana - Happy Hour Menu - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

We came here with a group of 14 people and they had one long set of tables together to accommodate large groups like ours. It was nice to see a couple 50 lb sacks of Caputo 00 flour blue label. Right away I knew they had a 900 degree oven. They had a fair number of beers on tap and several looked like my style. I ordered a dark amber lager which was a good match to a margarita pizza. The pizza comes out super fast. Only needs one minute to cook in the wood fire oven. Some in our group are used to Papa John's pizza and were a bit overwhelmed by the floral Italian descriptions of their pies. "Where's the sausage and pepperoni pizza?" Was a common question. Yes you can get a pie with those meats--look harder people! The Insalate Grande was a fully loaded salad with large slices of thin parm cheese on top. It was pretty good but I felt it was heavy on the olives and light on the artichoke hearts. We also tried the crustini with white beans. It was good but a bit salty with the bacon slice on top. I would have liked it more on a thinner slice of bread. Overall it had lots of good food and pizza is their specialty. Don't look for pasta at this place. The meatball dish had rave remarks by those in our party that tried it. There is parking behind the restaurant if you go past the house converted to a salon. read more

I came here for lunch and had a great time! This place serves good, authentic Neopolitan-style pizza from a wood burning oven. Food (5/5) - We ordered the diavola pizza and it came relatively quick, maybe like 5-10 minutes after ordering. We shared one pizza amongst two people and we both were content after, each having 3 slices. The pizza was cooked nicely, it was spicy which I personally liked, and the dough was great. It was fluffy, crispy, and not soggy! The flavor blew me away and all the ingredients were well balanced with the tomato, cheese, and spice. Service (5/5) - The service was great. We came on a Saturday afternoon and the restaurant wasn't that busy. We got seated right away and the server gave us waters and menus. Ambiance (5/5) - This location is bigger than the original location. I personally like the ambiance here as it's big and spacious, and the bar in the middle of the restaurant is really well laid out. You can see the wood burning oven in the back, and there's also available free parking in the back of the restaurant. read more

I recently came back to Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana for happy hour, and it reminded me why this place is such a gem. Two pizzas for $20 is still an absolute steal, but what really stands out is the quality -- fresh, flavorful ingredients and a perfectly balanced crust that's both light and satisfying. We even joked about ordering a third pizza... half-joking, half-serious. My brain was definitely on board, even if my stomach said it was time to stop. I also want to shout out the staff. Their attentiveness has noticeably improved since my first visits after they relocated to Lake Street. Service was friendly, timely, and genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. If you're looking for a happy hour option in pasadena, check them out. Yes the happy menu is limited to drinks and pizza but what more do you need? Great food, great value, and a great vibe -- I'll definitely be back read more

I love the convenience of this spot near my office. I've become a bit of a regular because the staff are so friendly and the pizzas and salads are so delicious. They have a lovely non alcoholic cocktail with passion fruit that I'm obsessed with! The environment is high ceilinged and big, but the noise level isn't too high. It's got an open kitchen and I like seeing the pizza oven read more

Settebello Pizzeria Napoletana - Settebello pizza with sausage and pine nuts! - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

First time visiting, lots of seating, spacious, clean space with quick, friendly service & delicious gluten free pizzas! We enjoyed the Caprese salad, Settebello pizza, gluten free Margherita pizza with sausage & Spumoni Bomba dessert (gluten free). I wish the Margherita pizza had more basil, I paid extra for more basil on the side to add myself. We went for my husband's birthday but they don't do anything special for birthdays. Will definitely return to try more items on the menu. read more

I really like the pizza here! Would come again. The salad was fresh and the pizza was light and flavorful. They did run out of basil which sucked cause I wanted the margarita. I also felt like the dough could've been cooked for another min. Some of the pizzas were so flabby we couldn't pick them up without it tearing. Server was also nice! Good service is hard to find so it def made us feel welcomed. read more

Settebello is still our go to place for pies. They're just like they are in Naples. They are the best Napoletana around. If you like this crust pizzas like they are in Italy. You should give them a try. Their appetizers are absolutely tasty. The warm beet salad is a keeper as is the Arrancini. read more

Let's start off with when we fist walked in it took about 5 min before anyone greeted us or took our names down. The pizza was soggy, if you lifted it up everything falls off of it and it wasn't even hot. I swear blaze pizza would've been a better option. The raw, frozen meatballs that they brought were absolutely disgusting. They never took it back or refunded me for it. Service is slow and people all around us were also complaining about their pizzas being not cooked properly. First and absolute last time I step foot in this establishment. Disappointed is an understatement! read more

Decided to stop here for dinner before heading over to Enchant LA last weekend. My friends and I got there early enough to beat the dinner rush and were seated pretty quickly. Our server was friendly and helpful. He even told us about the kids pizzas that weren't on the menu. The pizzas were really thin so really didn't fill you up as fast, which was great!! The appetizers were all fresh. We really liked the Insalata Grande salad. Was really yummy and wasn't drenched in dressing. The food came out rather quickly so it didn't take forever. Great place to check out if you are in the area! read more

My husband & I visited on 2/11 for an early Valentine's day dinner. I have been to their old location in Pasadena with my mom before, so I was excited to take my husband to try it. We didn't know it was on the super busy street & almost drove past it. They don't have a designated parking lot so street parking or the little lot across the street worked for us. Walked over to the restaurant & it was crowded but not overly packed. We got a table near the window without waiting too long. The space was nice, very spacious compared to their last location. We were seated for a good while before anyone came to bring waters or check in with us. My husband made eye contact with an employee then told someone else then a woman came to help us. Not sure of her name. My husband & I chose our drinks. A beer for him & Pasadena Pineapple for me. Both were good, the Pasadena Pineapple was good, a little strong but still tasty. We ordered the polpette pizza and involtini salad. The salad was good, we enjoyed that but it was a lot of arugula for our usual liking. The pizza was okay, we thought there could be more flavor & my husband commented that it looked like the toppings, specifically the meatballs were thrown on the pizza. The crust is thin which is something I don't mind but everything just fell off the pizza so I ate it with a fork really. We asked for parmesan twice but never got it so we started to eat our food because the pizza was getting cold. We didn't really get any good customer service, it was just okay. She was there to take our order & food then left. We had to try to get her attention so she could bring us the check. We were trying our best to get out of there because we could tell we weren't going to get serviced in an appropriate amount of time. Compared to the initial visit I had with my mom, you could taste the freshness of the ingredients, the flavor & attention to detail was there. Not sure if they changed management or ingredients but their previous location was a better experience in my opinion. I think if we do decide to visit again, we may just order out versus being in the restaurant because it didn't feel as welcoming as my initial visit. read more

Delicious and tasted very fresh! I was pleasantly surprised by the Arancini with the fried risotto meatball and mozzarella inside! It was very crispy on the outside. The Brie and apricot pizza was also delicious with the apricot jam and prosciutto. It tasted even better with the spicy oil and Parmesan! There's a small parking lot in the back and street parking available. This is a very large space with a lot of tables so you can definitely bring a large group of friends or family. There's also a large bar in the middle. The staff that helped us was very friendly, and offered us chili oil, extra Parmesan, and more for the pizza. read more

We stopped at this pizzeria while traveling through Pasadena and we were happy with our choice. We had pizza and I was positively impressed (I grew up in Italy). The dough was well done, good and thin, the toppings were good quality and the pizza was cooked in a real pizza oven. I think it had a little too much sauce, but that can be normal in the US as people expect it that way. The staff was friendly and efficient and the overall atmosphere was good, casual and relaxed. I will eat there again when in town again. read more

Enjoyed dinner here, and the aromas when you come inside are delicious! Pizza crust has so much flavor from the way it's made. I forget which pizza we had (see photo) it was good but one of the meats was not a personal fave. Their bruschetta was large but tasty. Their cocktail menu was also wide I enjoyed their rose city drink. read more

I have passed by this place many times before but never tried it. One day as I was thinking of a new place to try, this place came to my mind. This is an Italian pizza place that used to be on Colorado Street. I went there many years ago but haven't been back. It's good to try them again in this new location. This location seems to be bigger than the other location with a bar and a few TV screens. As soon as I walked in, a hostess came and brought me to a table close to the pizza oven. I asked the server about their specialty and he said they feature Neapolitan pizza and gave me a bunch of suggestions. However, I saw the pizza that the table next to us ordered and I asked them what it was. They said it was Bolognese Pizza and it's very good. So I ordered that. I started talking to the couple next to me and they told me they took the same server's recommendation and ordered this pizza. We ended up talking the whole meal and it was a very pleasant conversation. On top of that the pizza was really saucy and definitely very Bolognese. I was pleasantly surprised by a nice pizza and a friendly conversation. I had a really good time there and look forward to going back again. read more

Made the trip out to Pasadena to check out Settebellos Pizzeria. The restaurant has a really nice vibe, and the staff was polite and attentive throughout our meal. As for the food, the pizza dough was well-cooked and genuinely tasty. However, the toppings were definitely on the skimpy side. While the pizza tasted good, it just lacked the substance you'd expect for the price point. Speaking of prices, it's a bit expensive--though that's par for the course for the Lake Street area in Pasadena. Would I try it again? Probably yes, but I'd leave my New York pizza expectations at the door next time. read more

Both times that I've gone it's not overly busy. The bar sits in the middle of the restaurant. The Bianca and market special are solid choices. The market special rotates. I'd love to come during HH!

Came in with a friend on a weekday around 5 pm and the place was already busy and packed, which speaks to its popularity. We waited about 10-15 minutes before getting seated at the bar. Service was fine, and we ordered two glasses of wine, an insalata grande, and bruschetta. The salad was fresh and enjoyable, while the bruschetta was average. The interior was very loud, making conversation a bit difficult, so we decided to finish our meal after those items and didn't stay to order pizza. read more

What a cute place located here in Pasadena. I love that they moved the location. It looks a lot more family oriented at this location. I love the design layout as well. The staff here are sweet & friendly. The pizza here is amazingly delicious and reasonably priced. The pizza is light and filling and NOT over whelming at all. I ordered: - Settebello - Insalata Grande Both were very delicious and flavorful! I can't wait to take my parents and friends here and enjoy it as much as I did. read more

Was really excited to try this place out! The drinks were meh, nothing special and we didn't finish them. For an appetizer we got the arancini, which was stuffed with risotto. This dish was definitely a pass, the sauce was good, filling was a bit dry and didn't have a lot of flavor. For the pizzas we got, divaola and the prosciutto e fig. Definitely recommend getting the divaola and pass on the prosciutto e fig. Overall I don't believe I would return. read more

If you are in the mood for Italian style pizza this is a pretty good choice in Pasadena. It gets busy weekend evenings I recommend arriving before dinner rush otherwise you will be waiting at the bar (or outside) for a table. Ate with a party of 6. We ordered two arugula salads to share (which was plenty don't let your server try to talk you into 3). Ordered a variety of pizzas. They went heavy on the cheese which is the American way but overall decent pizza. read more
