Tried this spot out because I love that it's local and want to support local businesses. I just thought it was undercooked, not enough cheese and honestly lacked flavor. The pizza isn't bad and I definitely ate it... but I would not wake up craving it, if you know what I mean. We got a tomato pizza and a cheese pizza. I'd recommend giving them a shot to form your own opinion. Some people love it, it just wasn't my jam. read more

The Detroit style pizza is excellent but they don't always have it, particularly on weekends they sell out early. The tomato pie is great too. The rest of their pizza is just normal pizza in my opinion. read more

The NY Pizza is out of this world! Makes it difficult to try other things it's so good.

The best thing about this place is that it's convenient and close to home. Otherwise, the food is mediocre. I've never had anything that I'm blown away by and am always left feeling disappointed. The hospitality of the cashier/host has zero people skills. The rest of the staff (including the owners) are basically just as bad. So much potential completely missed. read more

Y'ALL. We live nearby and have seen as Spizzico but have avoided it. I don't know why other than it just seemed like a weird place for a "great" pizza place. You know, it's not downtown, it doesn't seem to have a particular hip vibe, it's tucked in a little neighborhood area. It just doesn't scream "WE HAVE GOOD PIZZA, YOU'LL SEE" so we just never went. However, one evening we saw a line forming (socially distanced, fear not) and we felt like we may be missing out on something special. So we ordered a couple (large) pies -- meat for the fellas and a tomato pie just for me (*italian chefs kiss*) The meat pizza was delicious. I love the way the ham was small pieces and everything was evenly distributed and had a good variety of meat. Any meat lover would Jones for this. But, guys, the tomato pie pizza was outstanding. I was reluctant, folks, I really was. I think it was the city of Chicago that ruined the sauce-on-top thing for me (also, deep dish is NOT a pizza guys, I'll fight you on this), but this tomato pie was seriously special and delicious. If you have any doubts from weird reviews (like one recently about "broken" carbonara) just ignore it and try it out. The mass reviews don't lie: this place is pretty dang delightful. read more

We came in and ordered fried mozzarella sticks and a well done pizza to dine in. It took longer than normal to get the mozzarella and the pizza came out right on top of them. The pizza was not well done as ordered so I carried it back and asked them to put it back into the oven. Maybe ten minutes later they delivered another pie, this one was less cooked than the first. I went up and complained again and they gave me a real dumb excuse. We have been coming here since they first opened which they acknowledged, but did not offer to give me a refund for the pie. I know the owners real well and will make it a priority to speak to them. Sorry to complain this hard, but their game seems to be slipping. I forgot to say we did not eat the second one either. read more

Truly Amazing Food and Atmosphere!!! The Best House Salad Dressing I've ever had!! Great Prices and Staff is Super Friendly as well as exceptionally clean!!! read more

Our favorite pizza place. Great food! So glad they are right around the corner from us! It's our weekly go-to. All the food is good, not just the pizza. And the quality hasn't diminished since it opened a few years ago. read more

For a suburban pizza and sub shop this is about as good as it gets! I've been back twice, had the Italian sub and the spaghetti and meatballs these are two of my favorite things to test this kind of place and they passed with flying colors. I think The meatballs might be better than my favorite Italian place in Little Italy. The meats in the sub were good and the roll is really good but not quite five star great, but that is grading it on a very steep curve. There is really nothing to complain about here! read more

This is our family's go-to restaurant, pizza, pasta, everything is made fresh and done well. The service is efficient and the employees are kind. Can't tell you the number of times they e helped me bring a large pickup order to my car. Can't say enough great things about it. read more

Good Italian food on a consistent basis. Takes them 30 minutes for to go orders called in but they are fast on the phone and I love how they just give you an order number. No time wasted giving your phone number and all that. This makes Spizzico our go to place for to go food at the end of a long day when we want an easy meal that tastes great. read more

I have never had Detroit style pizza but it changed my life! It was amazing and I wish I was from Annapolis to have it more often. I will definitely come back when I am in town. The person who was bussing tables and brought our food was very friendly and checked on us. Definitely give this place a try! read more

My husband and I ate lunch at this place today. One of the servers pointed out the lunch special which we tried. Both of our meals were excellent. We were very impressed with the quality of the food and the reasonable prices. They seemed very Covid safe and the staff was friendly and helpful. read more

If you're in the mood for homemade pasta but you don't have the space (or Italian grandmothers) to make it for you, this hits the spot. The house-made fettuccine and house-made gnocchi are delicious, as are the house-made red sauces. I have not tried the pizzas or desserts, only the house-made pastas. read more

I came in to pick up an order for Uber Eats. Order was to order and pay. The person at the register didn't even greet just ask rudely for "phone number". I said it was Uber Eats and he said rudely again what do you want to order" . I showed him the order for the costumer and he rudely said " I'm not going to look at your phone so tell me what you want". He do not have any costumer service etiquette and should not work upfront. read more

Don't order wings from here. Godawful and they just give you 6! Of their flimsy skinned, not even crispy wings. They should really invest in an AIR FRYER!!! Frankly!? They should remove them from their menu. Their pizza, however, is the best around Annapolis. And I have been around. read more

Decent antipasto plate of meat olives grilled vegetables and cheese. Little bit scant on the portion and kind of excessively oily. 16 inch cheese pizza was a bit bland, just tomatoes sauce and heavy on the cheese. Crust had a mild crisp though which made it average. Okay for the area, but expected a bit more flavor and finesse. The clean environment was the major plus. Cool decor. read more

They have very good pizza and homemade pastas. Their white pizzas are awesome, and the regular cheese is a delight as well. There seems to be a lot of hate towards this place from some other yelpers but to say their pizza is worse than gas stations? It's just a flat out lie. They have excellent pizza here and it's every bit as good as Bella Italia. I have a feeling many of these negative reviews are from George's supporters and are salty that there is a new pizza next door that is better and less expensive. The gnocci is all homemade and a great texture and their house dressing is also great. I've also had the eggplant twice and was awesome one time, but not as good the next. read more

Spizzico Italian Kitchen - Tomato Pie. Delicious. Crushes anything that phony a few stores down puts out. - Italian Near Me - Arnold, Maryland

Food is really good! Love the pizza and pasta. They need better phone service. Clearly business is great because the line is busy and hard to get through to place an order. read more

There are a lot of 'order at the counter and sit and ear' Italian restaurants in the Annapolis area. Spizzico is the only really authentic one with really good food. The atmosphere is nice with upholstered booths, tile floor , and comfortable tables and chairs. The staff is friendly, the service efficient, and the food is really good. New York City Little Italy good. Gnocchi is made in house and light and airy. The penne pasta with sausage and broccoli rabe is 1st rate. Pizzas with homemade crust, fresh mozzarella are very good. A great neighborhood place and a great value. read more

Get the pizza if you go, AVOID the rest. While the gnocchi seemed homemade and was nice but the sauce was SO SALTY we could not eat it. I had one piece he had one piece then we push the dish away. The Meatball and Cheese was 4 ounces of poor quality meatball on 10" of ciabatta with Campbel's tomato soup on it. If there was cheese on it, it was forgettable. The service is drop and run, so there is no one to ask if you need or like anything. read more

See all

The place is always busy. If you thought you were going to be original and order a pizza on a Monday to save time on cooking. Think again. So did everyone else in the vicinity of Spizzico Italian Kitchen. My kids love the cheese pizza. Wings are a good size and decent tasting (a bit dry). Pasta is delicious. Whether you dine in or order to go, this place has the feel of a hustle and bustle big city pizza joint in a small town. Hope you enjoy their food. read more

A couple of days from Christmas we ordered two large pizzas. One was burned and both were tasteless except for being too salty. A big quality drop since our last order. We're regular customers but this may take a rethink. read more

Our neighborhood staple!!!! Monday pizza night is amazing, but you have to try out the rest of the menu!!! Gorgonzola gnocchi is the best in Maryland!!! read more

I love this place SO much. Our go-to order is the tomato pie, which features the tomato sauce on top of the cheese, and I feel like it's somehow a little bit sweeter and more delicious when it's exposed to the heat in the oven that way - I don't know the science behind it, but I know my taste buds are elated. We usually switch between spinach + eggplant and the mixed peppers for our toppings, but you can't go wrong. We've gotten some of the pasta dishes before too (usually the penne with sausage & broccoli rabe) and it's okay, but I'd say the pizzas are better. read more

Looking at the reviews it seems like the pizza might be worth trying(although I probably won't). Have been 3 separate times and ordered subs and pasta for family and nobody has anything better to say then "it's OK". Carbonara sauce was completely broken and mostly butter. Marinara is very bland read more

I'm updating my rating to 5 stars for Spizzico. The tomato pie and the new Detroit-Style pizzas are the best around, and I can be a pretty harsh pizza critic (originally from NJ). The cheese pizza is average but the tomato pie is a must-try for anyone who likes sauce. Try it well-done and you'll be even happier! read more

Good pizza fast service. Easy to get to inside shopping center always friendly wait staff.

Fantastic pizza. Its THE best in the area! Great crust, cheese and sauce! Their Greek salad is also very good. read more

Best cheese and bread place in the area. I love the margarita and Mrs. Gs pizzas. The cannolis are so good. They did a great job handling this pandemic situation. read more

We almost never eat pizza (lactose intolerance to blame), but when we do, I love getting their veggie pizza. So yummy! Also love their house salad- mostly because the balsamic dressing is so tasty. Yummy bread comes with everything. read more

If you like excessively greasy pizza, this place is for you lol. They have great pepperoni and extra cheese pizza. I have been a few times and grabbed take out. The only complaint I have is the staff is typically always rude, probably the rudest staff I've ever dealt with. But if you want a different style of pizza than your typical chains, I recommend giving it a try. read more

This was one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I've ever had. The staff was friendly and the food was amazing .

My wife and I just moved here from the NJ/NY area and one of our foodie concerns was that the pizza in Maryland would, well, not live up to what we were used to. Wrong!!!!! The pizza here is equally good, maybe even better, than what we would get in Metuchen, NJ. The Detroit pizza is basically an upside down and it's a 10!!!!! The Mike and Roni pie is just stupid good. And the owner is from Jersey, right by where we used to live. He successfully brought NJ/NY to MD. And we cannot thank him enough!!!!! read more

I have visited this place many times and it's a go to Place if you are visiting Arnold Maryland, I have had several different things on the menu including pastas and pizza and all is good! read more

I don't know what to say. Every time I've been to Spizzicos I've had a great experience. Great atmosphere and I love it there. Food is great as well! read more

We have been here 4 times now and they are the first of many more trips. Spizzico isn't convenient for us but we find it is worth going a little bit out of our way. The owner was always great to us at his old place and I truly think he wants to turn out a good quality product. Everything we have tried from pizza to Stromboli to meatball and chicken parm subs have been good portions and great tasting food. Their fries are amazing and I like the selection of "Stubborn" sodas. It was a little disappointing that all of the Stubborn sodas were out of order last night but they told care of us. I guess the distributor is letting them down. Try it and you won't be disappointed. read more

Rude, rude, rude. I really like the pizza so I get the Monday special for my kids once in a while. However, the woman at the register must be family because she acts annoyed each and every time you place an order. I see the scowl on her face, rolling of the eyes if you ask a question or have a second of hesitation in your order with every customer before and after me, so it's not me, it's her. There is also a guy at the front who is equally rude but there is usually less interaction. BUT, the guy who cleans the tables is attentive and hardworking so we appreciate him and tip him. It's unfortunate that they can't find a family member who doesn't hate interacting with customers for the front of the house. read more

I can't speak for the whole menu, I only stopped in for a slice and some garlic knots. Good tasting pizza, fast and friendly. If I am ever in Arnold again, I will be stoping by. read more

Great pizza and pasta dishes..... TERRIBLE service. They will tell you 10 minutes and it will be 20-30 min. Go during non busy hours. Aside from this big issue, the food is great. read more
