I'm still not over Ungaro Coal Fired Pizza Cafe. This place has completely won me over. The food is excellent across the board, and the service matches it. It has a casual vibe, but still feels like a proper restaurant, which makes it perfect for anything from a quick bite to a relaxed sit down meal. It's a small spot, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation if you plan to dine in. I've tried their signature coal oven pizza, chicken parmigiana, penne vodka, and the flatbread. Everything was absolutely delicious. You can also order drinks, not just soda or juice, which adds to the overall experience. Street parking can be a challenge, but it's worth it. I was so caught up with enjoying the food that I barely took any photos, and that just says it all. I'll definitely be back and add more pictures next time. read more

Many cultures around the Mediterranean have different forms of chickpea fritters and/or chickpea-filled sandwiches. There's of course falafel to the east, garantita in Algeria, and panisse in France (or socca in a similar vein). Sicilian panelle is Italy's counterpart, and the version at Ungaro is an excellent example of it. The panelle comes served with a healthy serving of ricotta on a seeded bun. It has a relatively mild, filling flavor that lets you fully enjoy the chickpea fritters themselves. They also have a potato croquette sandwich on the menu - a distant cousin of the Vada pav I plan to try next time. The half vodka pizza we tried was good, with high-quality mozzarella and a decadent sauce. The pie itself had a nice chewiness to it - if I had any suggestions, perhaps next time they could go a bit easier on the quantity of the sauce. read more

The service was great and we were seated right away upon walk in. I didn't know that a reservation was recommended. So I would highly suggest making a reservation because the restaurant is small. The menu is so large so we decide to split appetizers because everything sounded delicious. We ordered the sweet and sour calamari (10/10) that was the best dish in my opinion. The sauce and the nuts went perfectly with the sauce. The risotto balls were very good too (9/10). I feel like the fried burrata was not worth the "hype" it was a pretty normal burrata BUT the bread that came with it was absolutely delicious when dipped in tue vodka sauce. This restaurant is extremely overpriced in my opinion. But the food and service was great. I would definitely come again and try other things on the menu since it is so extensive! read more

Wow wow wow..... this is a gem on the north shore that I was invited to for an inspiring event. As soon as you walk in you can feel the hometown welcoming vibe like you belong. They offer sangria which was good but the food was just so delicious. I wasn't even hungry but my friends decided to order so I figured I'd also order and I'm so glad I did. Everything tasted fresh and made with love. I got the artichoke with chicken on it, that was just the perfect crunch with a savory taste and my friends decided on the Alfredo (which let me tell you is usually not good at pizzerias) but it had this freshness to it I had to try another big bite from her. My other friend got a burrata dish and it too was tasty. I can't wait to come back for more. The staff and owner were lovely . I'll see you there. read more

Honestly the best pizza on the island, it's super crispy and fresh, and the service is very fast and the workers are super nice. They also have deals on certain days of the week for pizza pies which is why I come here so often read more

Run don't walk to support this local business... the quality of the food was superb from our first bites of our appetizer of mozzarella and tomato then Meat Lovers Pizza and finally our Chocolate Mousse! ( posted a few photos - more next time!) They had seasonal specials too! The music added to a perfect ambiance of classic Italian! The team was very kind and saw the owner and manager floating around which always brings me joy as they are truly local! read more

Delish! We ordered the four corners pie for delivery. Soooo good! I can only imagine how it'd be fresh direct if we dined in. Pie look so pretty. Fave on the four corners was probably the pesto. Amazing! I'd love to come by and try more of the menu. The desserts look good as well. read more

Ungaro Coal Fired Pizza Cafe - Four Corners Thin Crust Square - Pizza Near Me - Staten Island, New York

2.5 stars. This is our 4th time here, obviously we enjoy their pizza to keep coming back. However, today it was a complete fail. First, for a 12" meat lovers pizza they charged $23.95. Although that's crazy expensive - our motto is "you get what you pay for". This time it was highway robbery! The crust was too soft and mushy, the sauce was tasteless, the sausage wasn't spicy at all, which we asked for. The pepperoni was fine. My husband said "I hate to say this, but it tasted like Dominoes". Unfortunately, this won't be our go to spot from here out I'm sad to say! read more

I love their menu and we enjoyed our first few orders but the last two orders - not so much. 2 orders ago, the pizzas arrived looking a mess, like the toppings were thrown on, maybe they slid around during delivery. We ordered again a few days ago and everything but the salad was burnt black. Their pie crust is really good and the calzone filling was really tasty but I don't think you should send things out looking like this. read more

Very disappointed Ordered on web to pick up at 3pm , was 10 minutes earlier and order was ready . I live 2 minutes from the shop . Pizza was colddddd, saggy and no taste, my sausage hero also cold bread was mushy and shop forgot the sauce I ordered.? My conclusion, dont order on website because no one read what time you picking up ,I think pizza was made as soon as I ordered and that was an hour earlier ... No question it is different quality and taste from the last time I ordered few weeks ago . I thought there is a good pizza around me . read more

This place is my favorite pizza spot and it's not even for the pizza... THE BUTTERNUT SQUASH soup is top tier. The restaurant is so cozy and the employees are so friendly. I love it here. What we ordered: Butternut Squash Soup ($10): this soup is a must if you come here. It is soo creamy!! And you have to get the prosciutto on top. Amazing! Been thinking about this soup ever since Meatball ($15): we were able to get one meatball with marinara and one with vodka sauce. They were both really good and the meatball is hugeeee. Buffalo Coal Fired Wings ($16): the wings were okay. Not my favorite but that's because I like super crispy wings. But this taste like any other buffalo wings Meat is at the corner pizza ($30): was really good and the cheese pull was insane. Definitely love being able to taste different varieties. read more

Great staff, food and service. Worth the visit if you haven't already been. Specials are enjoyable too.

Great atmosphere. Small and quaint. Excellent homemade sangria. The Meatballs were probably the best I've ever had. Juicy and tasty. Had the Tri-colored pizza. Had marina, vodka and pesto sauce. It's was cooked to perfection and perfectly sauced. So so good. Had the homemade cannolis. Sweet and delicious. Great service as well. Well worth the visit. Highly recommend. read more

This little gem serves up some of the best Italian food on Staten Island. I have yet to order something here that was anything other than delicious! The service is always kind and helpful and the owner is wonderful. It's a smaller space so if you're planning to eat in I recommend touching base with them. The place is cozy and inviting and very clean. The pizza is on par with the best of em and the food is unreal! read more

This is a small cozy place and you can see how hard the folks work here. My son raved about this place so we had to go. We got caesar salad and the dressing had a smoky flavor which was delicious. Next a side of eggplant rollatini and the sauce was slightly sweet, again great. And the pizzas were amazing thin crispy crust yet tender. i don't t know how they do it! We saw someone order the artichoke and it looked amazing. Friendly service and no upcharge for using g a card! read more

Last night we confidently ordered from Ungaros again because our first experience was awesome. But this time the Pizza was dry, burnt & then not even crispy, it was just dry, tough & chewy. In the 2 orders of wings, we ordered, there were some pieces that were undercooked & had a strange taste. We threw a couple out & had to cook the rest thoroughly. I don't know what happened this time. But we were disappointed. I honestly gave them 2 stars out of consideration & the prompt delivery. read more

Very good pizza with a very good tomato sauce. Eager to go back for a pasta dish. Large menu. Very good wings, Stuffed Artichoke and rice ball. Nice atmosphere, well decorated with good vintage Italian restaurant music in the background (Sinatra, Dean Martin). Only drawback is it's small, not much seating. read more

Not one to leave a bad review, But I ordered a pizza at 1:04 PM for delivery from this restaurant, which is only 5 minutes away from where I live. After waiting for nearly an hour and a half, I called at 2:30 PM to check on the status. The girl on the phone told me there was a big delivery order ahead of mine, but that my pizza would be coming out next. Fair enough, I was patient. However, when I called back at 3:04 PM, she told me there was a mix-up and that my order was printed as a pickupinstead of a delivery. This was their mistake, and they were remaking my pizza. There was no apology for the delay, no offer of a discount, and still no sense of urgency to fix the situation. It's now over 2 HOURS since I placed my order, and I still don't have my pizza. Terrible customer service, no accountability, and honestly, I'm just frustrated. This is unacceptable, and I won't be ordering from here again. Was able to watch the whole giants game before receiving my pizza. This is by far the most ridiculous thing I've ever encountered. I wish this was a joke but it's not and unbelievable!!! I guess the pizza is being made in Italy. Side note ..... when the pizza finally came almost 2 HOURS AND 36 MINUTES later it was COLD, I WOULD GIVE 0 stars if I could! read more

Wow! I've been eying this place for a while and finally pulled the trigger! Before I get started on the topic at hand, I'll Mention i think i spoke with the owner and he was lovely! (He called to verify my address before running circles around the wrong street) We ordered the Ungaro house insalata with lemon vinaigrette to feel somewhat healthy (recommend adding Parmesan); was delicious! For the main course, we ordered a half Bianca half vodka pie. Let me tell you, I could feel the love in this pie! The crust was one of the best I've had in a while! Perfect "undercarriage" as Dave portnoy would put it. The sauce, cheese and flavoring was so thoughtful and exceptional. I am so happy I chose Ungaro as my last hurrah before starting keto because it was worth every bite!! Can't wait to order again for the rest of my family and watch from a distance! read more

Ok so starting off with what we came in for, THE FOOD. . .Amazing. Simply delicious. Staten Island has great Italian spots but this is now one of my favorites. The BRICK OVER PIZZA. We ordered 2 pies, a small vodka and the upside down pie. Cooked to perfection, crispy and doughy at the same time. The sauce was so tasty. kisses to the chef. The owner and the employees -such nice, welcoming people. Thank you for your service! The atmosphere- so cozy, so warm, so cute! You have us as re occurring customers! We will be back! read more

Chose this restaurant to celebrate an early Galentines day with my friends and we had a fantastic time! The restaurant itself is small and intimate, has a nice rustic feel to it with the brick ovens. We really enjoyed dining here, and the cucumber infused water was a major bonus :) We came specifically for the sampler pie or better known as the "Four Corners" pie, which is a 16 slice pie with marinara, pesto, ricotta and vodka. This is a MUST get!!! Oh my goodness so good, hard to pick which one was the best because they were all incredible, and for $25 you can't beat it. The mozzarella carozza was also a great appetizer choice! Overall 10/10 experience, and the staff were all so friendly! Will definitely be back :) Love Ungaro! read more
