I finally got to try this place, and it did not disappoint! The pizza was perfectly crunchy with amazing flavor, and the hot honey was sweet with the perfect kick. The Caesar salad could've used a little more dressing, but they were super accommodating and brought us extra on the side. The drinks were SO delicious. The pistachio gelato was unbelievably fresh and so good (not pictured). The real highlight, was the customer service. Our waiter, Lindsey, was literally the sweetest ever and made the whole experience so fun with her recommendations and energy. Natalie was also such a sweetheart and made us feel so welcomed. Overall, it was the cutest little date night with my girlie...good food, yummy drinks, sweet vibes, and lots of giggles. read more

Went to Vecchios Pizzeria and Gelateria with my husband and daughter to try somewhere new, and we really enjoyed it. The restaurant was pretty and the staff were welcoming. It's a small restaurant with plenty of seating between inside and the patio area. We were seated immediately. We started with the Bruschetta Fagioli, made with cannellini beans marinated in olive oil, garlic, and chili flakes, served with toasted baguette. It was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect starter for our meal. I ordered the Bianca E Funghi pizza, which was made with olive oil, mozzarella, Fontina cheese, and wild mushrooms. It was very tasty, and I especially appreciated that it was made with olive oil instead of traditional sauce since I love oil-based pizzas. My only wish was that it had just a little more toppings. It was slightly over cooked and had some burnt area. My husband ordered the Marinara pizza. It was good, but a bit basic since it didn't include many traditional toppings. My daughter ordered the Cacio E Prosciutto pizza with prosciutto, burrata, olive oil, dollops of pesto, and vodka rosa sauce. It was delicious and had the perfect amount of toppings and every bite was flavorful and balanced. We couldn't leave without having some gelato. We tasted 3 gelatos and decided on the Ferrero Rocher and coffee flavors. It was the perfect way to end our night out. Overall, the pizzas tasted fresh and artisanal, and we would definitely come back to try more items on the menu. read more

I came in a party of five for dinner and dessert. The ambiance is very chic and airy, however there were a lot of bugs flying around. The server was friendly and gave great recommendations. We ordered the prosciutto and burrata pizza for dinner. It was sweeter than I expected, and I wished it was a little more savory. It was still yummy. The Nutella pizza with gelato was the star of the show. We chose the fererro rocher gelato, which tasted incredible! The large chunks of sea salt made it a bit too salty, but I added a lot of gelato to my slice to hide the salt flavor. It was delicious! Overall, we had a great time and will definitely be back for more fererro rocher gelato! read more

We always like to try new restaurants in town and pizza/gelato i am in. The service was prompt and friendly as we were greeted right when we walked in. We ordered the burrata and hot honey pizza and my biggest complaint was the lack of toppings on the pizza, there was just not much per bite. I know this pizza is not supposed to be overwhelmed with toppings but other places like Tommy's strikes a better balance to me. I would come back and try other items on the menu. read more

Came here with my son for Father's Day. We ordered two beer from draft and they were nice and cold. We ordered two beer three pizzas, a Margherita, Funghi, and a Vodka Rosa pizza. All three came out cold and soggy. For a bill that was 103 bucks, I would expected better quality of a pizza, I would understand if one came out cold but all three, very disappointing. The service of the girls was good, they were polite. The ambience was ok, nice outdoor seating. I would NOT recommend this place. I normally would try a place again but the pizzas that were served were not good. read more

Service was great, spritz were delish. Gelato tasted a bit more like ice cream. Tried the cookie butter flavor. Pizza was delish. The cream on top made it a bit on the colder side which was the only slight downer but everything else was great. Outdoor patio was comfy and clean. Will be going back soon. read more

Tonight we decided to give Vecchio's a try after seeing a few friends post positive things on Instagram. Parking is pretty easy at this shopping center because it is a new build and not all the suites are full. Loved that there is lots of fake grass and seating outside that my toddler could run around on prior to entering the restaurant. Staffing today was minimum because, as one can assume, an early dinner on a Wednesday night is not so popular. Only 2 other groups were seated when we arrived. When we left, there were 3 other groups being served in the dine in areas. There were also a few group who came in for Gelato to go while we dined. The staff did an AMAZING job multitasking and staying on top of things. Food came out quickly, not really a wait for anything, didnt ever need to flag our server down. It was awesome. Since it was a first visit, we ordered big to try a lot of things. We got a flatbread sandwich, a Margherita pizza, and a Caesar salad. I was really impressed with all the food. It was super fresh and enjoyable flavors. The salads are HUGE. Bring a friend. We also ordered Gelato/sorbet. My daughter had strawberry, I had raspberry champagne, and my husband isnt sure what flavor he ordered but it seemed like a vanilla chocolate chip or similar to? All were delicious! I wish I could have ordered an even smaller scoop than the small though. Overall, I loved the decor. The vibes were great. Playlist had some amazing music from 50s/60s and Italian tunes. We ate at sunset outside and it was just so relaxing!!!! I just wish the lights on the patio came on a bit sooner. But really, that is me trying to find a critique! Truly such an enjoyable experience and we will definitely be back in the future. read more

Fig burrata pizza yummy! I do wish it was more fresh figs rather than jam like, it makes it more sweet than savory maybe fresh figs when in season. Gelato also really good, service was nice too. Will def try it again! read more

Vecchio's Pizzeria & Gelateria - Burrata Fig Prosciutto more sweet than savory - Pizza Near Me - Bakersfield, California

These pizzas are not your ordinary ones, so approach them with an open mind! I tried the fig, prosciutto, and burrata pizza and the hot honey pizza. Both were very delicious, featuring freshly made dough and high-quality ingredients. Despite being almost closing time, the staff was friendly and helpful. They greeted us with smiles and answered all our questions to help us decide. It is relatively new so they don't have their beer and wine license yet. However, they have draft lines ready to go, so for now, they only offer canned sodas and refreshments. I would say the food is for sophisticated consumers with an expansive palette, but their gelato is sooo good and worth trying if you're not a fan of the food. I sampled a few flavors, but the pistachio was my absolute favorite! The overall vibe and aesthetics of the restaurant complement the shopping center perfectly read more

Came on a friday night and this little place was packed! We had to sit outside with the heaters. So heat in the face. Cold legs under the tables. We started with the insalta vecchio. I feel like the salad has been sitting in the dressing for a while. It was limp, sad, soggy. Not a fan of the salad at all. It is horrible for the price. The dough is apparently flown in from Italy. It is definitely a different dough. This is just a different type of pizza that you may be used to. My husband kept complaining saying he still loves his domino's but atleast we tried it. Hot honey pizza- not a lot of meat. Hot honey has a nice little kick of heat. You taste mostly dough and get the after heat of the hot honey. Diavola pizza- husband said basic. Great dough. Waitress was nice. She was very enthusiastic. She provided recommendations which we had. We only ate half the food so there's room for gelato....winner for the night, we both chose tiramisu! She said that it's probably the most popular. The price is high. (Duh...location). You should share the pizza if you can. Would we eat here again? Probably not. Husband didnt care for it and i don't think I would crave it. But atleast we tried it, right? read more

I was very excited for an Italian place to open up right around the corner from me. Unfortunately, it was disappointing. I know they are newly opened, so hopefully they take the feedback as a positive and improve. We ordered the ricotta with honey and pistachios. The ricotta came out cold (cold, not even close to room temp or warmer). The baguette slices served along with the ricotta was toasted, but it must have been toasted the day before because the bread was also cold. The beet salad was good. It definitely tasted fresh. While I didn't have the pizza, it did smell very good. I'll give in another shot and hope for a better experience next time. They did give us samples and a free scoop of gelato. It was good. read more

Showed up unplanned after running errands on a Saturday. Honestly felt a little under dressed lol. Never been in the area but it's a pretty nice vibe. Our waitress was awesome and informative. We shared the hot honey pizza and the fig prosciutto burrata pizza. Afterwards we also got dessert and I was shocked at how well the strawberry balsamic pepper paired so well. I think we found a new spot we'd enjoy coming back to! read more

We were in Bakersfield and decided to try them because we wanted Neapolitan pizza. The location is is a newer part of town. The restaurant itself is also new inside, really nice. It's clean modern decor. It has a patio if you want to sit outside. They have a large beautiful wood fired oven that is the center piece of the restaurant. The staff member was really nice and helpful. I believe her name was Andrea (please forgive me if I remembered it incorrectly). We ordered one Neopolitan pizza. It was a nice 12 inch size, enough for 2 people to share. We did ores a sandwich to go (with looks fantastic) but we have not tasted because we are still full. We also had a scoop of their amazing gelato. It was so delicious. Honestly I would drive to Bakersfield to have pizza here again. It was an overall excellent experience. My only knock on the place is that the pizza had ash on the underside. I feel like they should maybe wipe down the oven floor after they get the fire going before they launch any pizza in there to avoid ash getting on. Our fingers were grey after grabbing the slices. read more

Exceptional Neapolitan style pizza with a great undercarriage cooked perfectly. Only downside it took 40 min to get the pizza when we were the only ones here. Otherwise I would recommend read more

Vecchio's gives off a high-end, artisanal pizza vibe, but it didn't live up to expectations. The pizza came out soggy and was overly drenched in honey or olive oil. The pizza itself was also not pre-cut when it came out, which staff said they do not during dinner time. It looked great, but the flavor didn't match the presentation. However, the service and interior of the building was excellent, and we ended the meal with some delicious gelato! Overall, I wouldn't return. The pricing doesn't match the quality, it feels more like a place that looks luxurious than one that actually delivers on the food. read more

Pizzas were so good, light and flavorful! Great night time patio ambiance - it was chilly outside and they kept it perfectly warm. Service was also great - attentive and quick! Definitely recommend. read more

I really enjoyed Vecchio's! I shared the margherita and the diavola pizzas with my family and both were delicious Neapolitan style pies with a well cooked crust. We also loved the beet and the arugula salads, which were flavorful without being over-dressed. The only part I did not love was the gelato. It was not as creamy or flavorful as I would have liked. Overall it was a great experience and I look forward to visiting again for pizza/salad! read more

This spot was cute and I'd be interested to give them another try. Vecchio's is definitely different in terms of the local pizza scene. The pizza was made hot, fresh, and delicious! There were a few parts that were definitely burnt and tasted odd but overall tasty. I will admit I was a bit bummed they don't have fountain soda and have very limited canned soda options but was glad they offered ice with the canned soda. What absolutely sold me was the salted caramel gelato! It was so smooth and sweet. The service was decent for a Friday night. read more

This was my first time at Vecchio's and I enjoyed my experience. There isn't much indoor seating but they have a heated patio with plenty of seats. The pizza was cooked perfectly & had the perfect balance of flavors. I love how light and airy the crust tastes. The only note I have is the Nutella pizza doesn't come cut! I'd love to have that pizza cut like the others. It'll be much easier to share. The dessert pizza also came with a scoop of gelato, we got pistachio and it was AMAZING! Service was very quick and I look forward to returning very soon! read more

Absolutely obsessed. Tried the hot honey pizza and WOW!! Perfectly crispy crust, airy and light with that classic Neapolitan char, creamy mozzarella, and the hot honey drizzle was chef's kiss. Sweet, spicy, and savory in the best balance. Every bite hit. Then we had to get gelato and went with lemoncello and pistachio. The lemoncello was bright, refreshing, and not too sweet. It was super smooth and perfect after pizza. The pistachio was rich, nutty, and tasted authentic, not artificial at all. You can really tell the quality here. The space is cute and clean, service was great, and everything felt thoughtfully made. If you're coming to Vecchio's Pizzeria & Gelateria, do NOT skip the hot honey pizza or the gelato. Already planning my next visit!! read more

The pizza here never ceases to fulfill my appetite and wow my taste buds. First off, Vecchio's is a nice little pizzeria with an outdoor and seating area and it's definitely a nice place to have a good conversation with some wonderful pizza and many other items. The ricotta montata was absolutely addicting and i could not stop grabbing bread and having more alongside the bruschetta fagioli. My group and i got the hot honey pizza, which is one of my go to's and every time it never fails to bring out a perfect combo of sauce, cheese, pepperoni, and hot honey with a wonderfully delightful crust that our very nice and attentive waiter suggested we eat with the leftover ricotta! A margherita pizza never fails to satisfy a craving for a fresh pizza and Vecchio's does it with so much justice. For the first time I tried the Prosciutto and Burrata pizza and it was honestly a nice surprise with the perfect amount of sweetness from the fig jam and the saltiness from the prosciutto! We typically get ourselves a gelato and a nutella pizza to end off the course but we were so full we have to save it for the next time we come! read more

From the moment I walked in, the ambience was inviting, tranquil, and absolutely beautiful. The space is so aesthetically pleasing that you instantly feel relaxed. The service was impeccable, every staff member was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. And the food? Phenomenal. I tried two different pizzas, and as a self-proclaimed pizza snob, I can honestly say this was some of the best dough I've ever had. Perfectly crafted, flavorful, and unforgettable. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for amazing Italian food paired with top-tier service and a gorgeous atmosphere. read more

We ordered two salads--the roasted beet with orange and chèvre, and the arugula limone. Both were beautifully presented, vibrant in flavor, and just as impressive to look at as they were to eat. My child had the margherita pizza, which was wonderfully flavorful with a perfectly light, crisp crust. Their gelato flavors were exceptional. We tried the Amarena cherry, and it instantly became one of my favorite flavors. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed.

Vecchio's absolutely delivered! From the food to the service, everything was superb. We started with the Ricotta Montata appetizer, a whipped ricotta that was light, creamy, and perfectly balanced with a drizzle of honey and pistachio. Simple, elegant, and dangerously addictive. For pizzas, we tried the Diavola with San Marzano, tomatoes, spicy salami, and mozzarella, which had just the right amount of heat and a beautifully crisp, airy crust, and the Prosciutto, fig, and burrata pizza, which was a standout. The salty prosciutto, sweet figs, and rich burrata worked together perfectly. Every bite was balanced and indulgent. And then came dessert... the gelato was truly the perfect ending. Creamy, rich, and full of flavor; clearly made with care and quality ingredients. Special mention to our server. Unfortunately we didn't catch her name, but she was genuinely warm, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. We made sure to let her know before we left how much we appreciated her service, and it truly elevated the entire dining experience. Highly recommend for a relaxed yet elevated dining experience. We'll absolutely be back. read more

WOW! Just wow. I've been craving a true Neopolitan pizza and what a treat that Vecchio's opened. We got their Salad, Sandwich, and margarita & a marinara pizza. We also all got gelato which oh my goodness. WOW. Get the tiramisu if you can. This was maybe the best pizza I've had in years. I cannot recommend Vecchio's enough. The atmosphere was so nice, clean and simple and not too overwhelming. Our server was so nice and the owner was there and was they were all so attentive and kind. 10/10 experience read more

I hate giving subpar reviews but when they are warranted, such is life. This place is TINY. Don't come with a large party or even a normal party lol. There are maybe 5 tables inside and a tiny bar (which I didn't see any alcohol). There is outside seating but when it's 40°, hard pass. Secondly, the price tag on everything is outrageous. I spent $100 for ONE pizza, ONE salad, and three single scoops of gelato. Completely absurd and I won't be back for all the reasons listed above. The only reason for the two star review is that our server was incredibly sweet. Otherwise, big bummer! read more

The food here is amazing. Whenever I am in town I always make sure to drop by Vecchio's for pizza and gelato. I've tried a decent amount of pizza places all over the country and this spot definitely stands out. The service is always great and the staff really ensures that you have a good experience. The space is always spotless and has a nice enough ambiance for more formal occasions, but it is still casual enough that anyone can just drop by. The Bianca and Hot Honey are my top two, but everything from the salads, apps, and gelato have been nothing but great. Excited to see a spot like this in Bakersfield and I hope to continue trying more things from the menu! read more

I can tell the food can be super amazing and I'm not gonna lie it was actually pretty tasty. But I was soooo disappointed that I didn't get any chop pistachios or lemon zest on my pesto pizza or on my ricotta and hot honey and some of the baguettes were burnt :( I was excited about the chopped pistachios! I will be back to give it another try since they are new. The service was really awesome, and the people were super kind, it was very clean and I love the vibe of the restaurant and the ingredients seem quality. I saw who I thought was the owner in there working with the staff so I know that there are always new business kinks to work out. Best of luck and I hope for better executed food next time. read more
