Yummy yummy food! I had a craving for pasta and didn't feel like making my own. The order process was super easy and the prices were great as well. The venue was also very nice as well! I stumbled upon this place and I'm so glad I did! I got the baked ziti with garlic knots and the house side salad. Everything was on point! The garlic knots were my favorite though. I'd definitely come back. read more

Okay So my wife and I decided to stop by and get a Philly cheese steak and two slices of pizza from this joint and she ended up with their barbecue chicken pizza, which she said was awesome! I had the most divine Philly cheese steak with extra Mayonnaise and onions, lettuce, tomatoes, jalapeno peppers and mushrooms, and the awesome cheese of which they put extra on just because! My man Luigi hooked up the amazing cook on the meat and I wholeheartedly recommend it! My girl Amelia took our order with much enthusiasm and she also serves the food with much energy and with a smile! Oh yeah, not only did the pizza and Philly cheese steak taste like NYC STYLE but so did there French fries! Their fountain soda (Coke) assortments, was refreshing and a taste bud quencher! Overall, I give two thumbs up on the food and service for this joint but the price is a little bit high but kinda offset by the flavor bombs of the food and the service! I want to thank Luigi and Amelia for a great experience at Villa Rina and I anxiously look forward to my next visit! YOU GUYS ROCK! read more

My wife and I have been here several times since my last review of Villa Rina's 4 years ago. Let me tell you the quality of the food has gone down drastically. We went to Villa Rina's today and I just had to write this review. I'm not complaining about the service. The cashier/waitress was good. However, our garlic knots were horrible. First of the garlic knots where more like butter knots and were hard as rocks. Also, they were not very hot at all. And our main course, our pepperoni pizza that we asked to be baked crispy absolutely sucked. Our pizza definitely was not crispy and also did not have any flavor. This is definitely not the Villa Rina Pizza we have been visiting for years. The original owner would be very disappointed. We probably won't return to Villa Rina's any time soon. We'll have to wait a while, give it some time, and see if that get their mojo back. read more

After leaving floor and decor we stopped in Villa Rina for dinner before they closed. We Got an order of teriyaki wings and a large pizza. We also a kids chicken fingers and fries which was a hit. The pizza took a little while longer so the wings came out first. The teriyaki sauce they use is so salty it's not really sweet at all so I wasn't a fan. The pizza was good they make a good pie in the area so I'll just probably skip the wings next time. read more

I used to love this place and I am not in the Brandon area very often, but when I am, this was my slice of pizza pitstop. Today was very disappointing. The pizza was extremely dry very little flavor and the pies that were sitting there did not look like they used to. Last time I was in here I got sicilian because it used to be awesome here but the last Sicilian slice I got was not as crunchy and good as it used to be either. read more

I've had pizza from this place three times now. The first time, a few years back, was excellent new york style pizza, flavor, texture... Perfect. The next time, ordered a whole pizza to take home. Good, but texture was off, not nearly as good as the first time. The last time(probably final time), I went in to try a slice. I was barely greeted by the young girl behind the counter. I ordered the special, two slices and a drink for 6.50. I waited and when my pizza was ready, she slid the box across the counter to me. I got to the car eager to try it. I opened the box, and the pizza looked 'ok'. The 'texture' was ok, slight crisp on the first bite, with some chewiness... But relatively no flavor. Sauce, cheese was there but very underwhelming taste. I could only imagine if I hadn't added extra garlic and red pepper flakes how it would have tasted. read more

best so far, giant calzone, zeppole and a giant pizza pie! parking isn't the best but certainly worth the trip

Best pizza establishment I've ever eaten at. I highly recommend getting the deep dish style pizzas.

I've been going to Villa Rina's for over 10 years, almost once a week when in the Tampa area. Now I make sure to stop by whenever i'm in town. Very much a local, family feel. The foods always great and super affordable. If your not sure what to get, grab my usual - a large (half plain/half veggie) pie with an order of BBQ wings. read more

I'm a recent NY transplant who has been spoiled by having easy access to the best pizza on the planet. I know moving to Florida, I was in for a rude awakening. I have had a lot of disappointing pizza down here. This place pleasantly surprised me. The pizza was very good! It wasn't 100% NY tasting but better than 85% there. read more

Great local pizza spot! Just moved here and have ate here about 8x a month. Things as simple as cheese pizza is done right and a great price. They charge a slight you charge for credit/debit but cash price is great! Cheese is good quality and slightly reminds me of NY when you're there read more

Had lunch at Villa Rina today. I beat the lunch rush so that was awesome. They get pretty busy around 12-1. They have a lot of Italian food but I got pizza today. They sell by the slice and have a daily special. They have 2 NY style slices of cheese pizza and a drink for $6. I got 2 slices of their meat lover Sicilian style (thick crust) and a drink. It was around $11. Pizza was amazing. I was only able to eat one slice. They're hearty. The service is always good and the restaurant is clean. I will be back for more. read more

is the best pizza place, I have been eating there for almost 2 decades, and I wish they have an online ordering system, did the order online apparently grubhub yelp site and the order was not how I order it, I want it half pepperoni and half cheese and I got a whole pepperoni but other than that I recommended to any one, you will enjoy the place. read more

Worst pizza I've ever tried to eat. It was undercooked, gooey and had hardly any toppings. It was so bad I threw it away after the first bite. I also ordered boneless wings and the tin was full of SO much sauce it was hard to even find the chicken. It unfortunately made them also disgusting and inedible. I am a person who loves sauce so for me to say it was too much, is pretty bad. Do NOT recommend at all. read more

I loved this pizza! We were shopping nearby and wanted a quick bite and saw the sign and stopped in. They have a daily special of two pieces of cheese pizza and a drink. A slice of pizza is huge! The pizza is super thin, which I love, and the cheese is wonderful. I wouldn't have minded a little more sauce, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Atmosphere is very casual, with lots of tables. read more

In what can sometimes seem like a quality pizza wasteland for someone from the northeast, Villa Rina's in Brandon is an awesome find. Cool pizza shop, ate in and glad I was able to get my first bite straight from the oven, pretty thick on the cheese but that I think Is a plus on this style of pizza read more

I was sitting at work and was really thinking hard about what I wanted for lunch, and BOOM is dancing in my thoughts. Mind you, I rarely eat pizza, I mean rarely. I'm talking maybe twice a year it's just not my thing. After a quick Google search, i found this spot okay 10min drive.. 30 minutes lunch ahh let's do it. Take the drive I pull up, and this joint is booming! I mean, it's slammed packed, so I'm excited because the pizza must be right?. They have a lunch special two slices and a soda for $6.. perfect. I ordered my two slices of pepperoni, and the total is $6 even, and I'm like damn no tax shit let's do it. Nawww, slow down champ that's a cash only price ahh damn. Using debit card? I replied yes. $6.47 is your total. Which isn't bad at all. Just note that $6 special is a cash only special. Nevertheless, I wait about 9 minutes for my pizza to be ready and boom two cheese slices wait ma'am I asked.. I didn't say anything because I'm running out of time. I just take my slices and bang it because I'm late. I eat the pizza, and ahhhh, it's just pizza, no special effects, nothing amazing. No fireworks went off as i was eating no drum majors, no nothing. Just plain ole pizza. I'm beyond disappointed. Not only did I risk this drive on a 30-minute lunch break, my order was wrong, and the pizza was wack. Per usual, I'll give them a chance to redeem themselves. read more

Had the occasion to be in the area today for some shopping and decide to give Villa Rina's another visit. Ordered a medium Villa Rina Special pizza and a grilled Italian sausage sandwich. The pizza was perfect! Excellent crust and toppings althiugh thte topping could have been spread out a little better. My wife and I continue to think this is the best pizza in town. The sandwich was good and hot. However, there are a couple of things that would make this sandwich great instead of just good. First, serve a whole sausage instead of the sliced pieces. Slicing the sausage and then grilling it looses the moisture in the sausage thus making the sandwich a bit on the dry side. A whole sausage would keep the juices in and help the sandwich tremendously. A bit more cheese, peppers and onions would add to the overall taste. Still a good sandwich but room for improvement. read more

4.5 cuz on this order our Sicilian pizza was raw in the middle. Other than that the pizza was great. I wanted to try another product of theirs. Im a bug fan if their New York stile pizza. It is very delicious n huuge! I went with the Sicilian one this time. It says its a Medium. My idea of medium is insanely different to what they called medium lol That pizza is freaking huuuge!!! Like holy crap! I didn't expect it to be this big! It's very thick to. Nice n fluffy bread on the nice baked areas towards the corners. Again one hiccup is the middle slices, were raw. I had to take those n stick them in my oven to bake a little longer. Taste? Like wow! It's very tasty to. Went with the bacon top n it was amazing! Real bacon not that bacon bits other places use either. Hand un even cuts packing wonderful smoked flavors. The cheese is always good to. I was full with one slice. I have the rest frozen for later. Ordered the canolies to. Tad to crispy for me but the cream was so confusing! Had texture like cheese cake n nice n fluffy cream with chocolate chips in them. It was a pleasant dessert. read more

I enjoy Hookah a lot, so it's very convenient to have a pizza place right next door. I thought the pizza itself wasn't that bad, and the fries were really good! I didn't have to wait very long on a Friday night at dinner time. My only complaint is that the prices online differ from what they are in person. I paid $4 and some change for a small-ish order of fries, and around $14 for a medium cheese pizza. I don't think that it was worth it for the price, but I will give them another shot. It's really cool that they have the super large 28 inch pizzas, I don't think I've seen a box that big before!! read more

Villa Rina Pizza never fails to impress! Their pizzas are amazing, with a crust that strikes the perfect balance between crispy and chewy.

Staff is amazing and the items they serve are always hot and delicious. We enjoy getting a pie from here.

Typically pepperoni pizza is made with all ingredients on the pie then placed into the over. However, today we received a pizza that was originally a typical cheese pizza. Either they took a cooked cheese pizza and put pepperonis on it then threw it in the over OR cooked the pepperonis by itself and then throw it on the pizza. Every slice we picked-up, the pepperonis fell right off. We love this place but after today, I'm not going back because I've never in my life witness a pizza like this. Do better. read more

My office orders from Villa Rina all the time and it's not currently in my family's pizza parlor rotation because it's a bit too far from our house. But that doesn't mean we can't stop in and enjoy a large pepperoni and cheese pizza when we are at that end of town. Last night we were in the area because we bought a car off of 60 and Villa Rina was on our way home. In fact, I called ahead when we were leaving the dealership to have them start the pizzas since we were starving and hadn't eaten in the past 10 hours with all of the car sales hullabaloo. They have an $11 and change special of you pay cash. When we got there the pizzas just came out of the oven. Perfectly crispy, great amount of sauce (not too sweet and not too overly basil tasting), nice quality cheese and a generous amount of pepperoni! We were the only people dinning in at a little past 7pm but it looks clean, plenty of hand sanitizer to use and wrapped straws by the soda fountain. read more

Best pizza ! New York style pizza! You won't go anywhere else when you try this pizza!

Did not appreciate them overcharging the day after hurricane Ian, although they were one of the few places open, they should have still charged their listed menu prices or at the very least tell customers there was going to be some sort of up charge. Also, if you are running out of pepperoni during the lunch rush, stop selling it and don't just keep making them with less toppings....have always enjoyed them in the past but this last visit left a bad impression read more
