Pizza, perfected. Very yummy, nice ambiance, and attentive staff. They use some really good cheese at this place, it's the perfect amount of pull and none of the greasy mess. Try the tiramisu, it is surprisingly good! :) read more

Definitely not the best pizza in Astoria -still a solid spot for lunch with friendly service I ordered one regular Sicilian and one regular slice with a cold drink. Tables, chairs, and the place are generally clean, but there's not much atmosphere. Will I be back? Maybe, who knows read more

Was visiting the beautiful city of Queens and thought it was a great idea to visit Astoria Park where you can view the beautiful NYC skyline. When you're anywhere in the city you know you have to look for a really good pizza spot where you can indulge and enjoy the scenery one slice at a time. First time stopping by to Zio Pepe and I was amazed by their selection of pizzas and quality. The service was great, especially when the gentleman behind the counter was making a fresh pie as we entered and you know you're from NYC when you ask for a fresh slice. Everything was amazing. Zio Pepe also offers their famous pizza sauce you can take home and create your own recipes. I highly recommend stopping by and getting yourself a slice or two while you enjoy a nice summer evening in the city, oh yeah you definitely have to try their Italian ices, keeps you cool and happy while you explore Astoria Park. read more

Togo order Great flavor on the pizza on the salty side and sauce was perfectly sweet. The texture was a bit soggy but that may be because it was not eaten fresh. Garlic knot were not oily but also not as garlicky as I like. Still good though. Service was good. The lady who rung me up was friendly and quick. There is outdoor and indoor seating. Regular pizza shop vibe. I would eat here again if in the area. read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Regular slice and one order of garlic knots (marinera sauce not pictured) - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

Zio Pepe's is a casual NY pizza place that's worth trying! I initially found them when I was searching Yelp for non-fancy pizza in the area since sometimes you're not up for Neapolitan pies. The pizzeria isn't huge but still has a few tables inside and a couple outside. The folks are friendly, especially the guys making the food. I'm partial to Zio Pepe's tomato sauce and crunchy crust. A plain cheese slice is currently $3 (cash price) without tax. I had my eye on the white pizza too, will have to branch out beyond plain and pepperoni next time! read more

Food is great (love their vodka sauce), prices are decent, and the staff -down to the delivery people- are always SO pleasant. Our go to

Very good pizza definitely the best in the area which lacks heavy on good quality real authentic old school pizzerias. Friendly staff and good service read more

Great pizza - especially the grandma's slice. Service is a 3 for attitude. The new cashier girl visibly rolls her eyes at customers and gives everyone disgruntled looks and attitude. I suggest training her in customer engagement. read more

I came here and had a slice of the pepperoni pizza and I have to say that the crust was soft around the pizza and the crust was crunchy. It was truly amazing! The cheese was very delicious and the size of this slice was huge! read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Pepperoni Slice - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

Pretty much always order for delivery and their plain cheese pie is just right crispy, not too doughy and has an amazing sauce that's not too sweet. read more

Great new Pizza Spot in the area. We needed more regular pizza around here meaning not another fancy brick oven spot (no offense, just prefer a classic slice) Definitely worth a try! So far I've tried a chicken roll, cheese pizza, and garlic knots and everything was great! The dough is not too thin or too thick. Just right! read more

Excellent, quick, and reasonable pizza parlor. Thin crunchy crust. Quintessential NYC style. We got two veggie slices and one vodka slice. Was heated up very quickly and delicious. Simple as that. read more

The defensive and aggressive tone of one employee, in particular, when we advised the order and bill was incorrect was disturbing and threatening. The owner was just as defensive despite my advising I was not looking for a free pie. I can't imagine the mindset of someone who reacts in such a manner nor an owner who condones it. Plenty of pizza establishments, especially since his pies were mediocre at best. read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

Always see this spot but forget to stop by since it's not really mentioned on Yelp. Luckily drove past it tonight and tried their marg. pie. $19 for a large pie did not disappoint, fresh out of the oven and this place was busy with calls and orders. They take pride in their pizza and I think this is a close favorite for me. The sauce and cheese are delicious and you won't be disappointed. Try this place! read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Margarita Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

Maybe their food is good but I wouldn't know because the service was so atrocious. I called for delivery and the guy recorded the address wrong so the delivery man had to make an extra stop and the pizza wasn't in an insulated bag (in 40° weather) so it came cold. I'm only four blocks from this place so there's no excuse for a cold pie. I called expecting an apology for the miscommunication and an attempt to fix the situation but he didn't care in the slightest. He attempted to hang up so I had to ask if I could come pick up a new one. When I got there, he argued with and gaslit me, saying that I told him the wrong address instead of admitting we simply had a miscommunication. I asked if this is how he thinks a business should be run and he said he wasn't the owner, he just works there so he truly doesn't care. When I got the replacement pie, the box wasn't even hot. It was supposedly straight from the oven. I hadn't even taken it outside yet! For a $30 fresh pie, I expect a hot pizza. If you want a friendly face and a delicious hot pizza for $20, go to Mela Pizza House on the corner of Newton and 31st. read more

My go to place for a classic NY slice in the hood. They have a special for two slices and soda. Ordered a pepperoni slice and a grand ma and it came to about $7. Beats McDonalds any day The slice has a thin crust with a good sauce to cheese ratio. It's not too salty and you won't feel too heavy after eating. The pepperoni wheels are solid too. This place has great value and the quality is on point. Treat yourself to a slice of NY at Zio's. Cheers read more

In my opinion this is the best pizza in the neighborhood! The pizzas are so flavorful and it's definitely my go to spot whenever I want pizza. The service is ok and the place is pretty small but they also have outdoor seating. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood and want some pizza. read more

After leaving a nice party at the nearby LetLove Inn, we dropped in for a few slices to fuel our long drive home. Any old pizza would have sufficed, but we were delighted to find Zio Pepe's pizza to be, well, just awesome! Classic NYC style pizza with a perfect balance of crust, sauce and cheese. We soon regretted only having 2 slices each! On top of that, owner Sammy was THE nicest, sweetest gentleman we had met in s long time. What a neighborhood treasure he and his restaurant are! Next time we're in Astoria (or even Manhattan), we will go out of our way to stop at Zio Pepe's again! read more

I ordered delivery through Grub Hub. The pizza was just okay - it wasn't anything exceptional. To be fair, I should hit the physical location one day and get a slice, in-person. read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - 12 inch Cheese Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

This place is always consistent and delicious! I've tried many of their slices and have always been pleased. Better quality than your typical pizza joint read more

I've ordered delivery from this place several times and I've always been very happy with the food. The margarita pizza is my favorite. It takes about an hour for delivery, but the food arrives hot and fresh. The delivery drivers are always very pleasant. I'd say the price runs a dollar or two more than some other places in the area, but the quality is well worth it. I've never been to the place in person, so I can't speak to the ambiance of the establishment. I highly recommend this pizza if you're in the area. read more

Good pasta and pizza! Tried the carbonara and spaghetti, Both where delicious. The pizza was also very tasty!

I gone to zio Pepe several times as I work in the neighborhood and it's convenient. The food is good especially their chicken parm hero with vodka sauce, but, I'm doing keto, so I asked for grilled chicken parm without the bread. First couple of times they listened and everything was great! It was my new go to meal when I didn't bring lunch. But then, we called in a pick up order exactly how I asked for it before. It wasn't until we got beach to work and ready to eat that I noticed it was a grilled chicken parm with red sauce and spaghetti... disappointingly, I ate around the pasta because I don't have the time to go back. I decided to go there and place my order again and this time I got grilled chicken parm with red sauce no bread no pasta. Still disappointed because the vodka sauce is the main reason for going there. Third times a charm right? NOPE! I went this afternoon and placed my order same as usual. I let them know that I placed the same order twice before and got red sauce and please make sure it's vodka sauce. I even order one for my partner who is also on the keto diet. I checked the order before I left and I see vodka sauce. Yes!!! Lo and behold I get to work and instead of grilled chicken I got breaded...smh. I'm done. Won't be going back after this. Thanks, no thanks... read more

Sam and his crew are making the best pizza in the entire city. There's a bunch of places that claim it - but he's the real deal. The pastas are delicious, the vibe is laid back and the owner is old school class all the way. It's a great pizza and a great business. Why are you still reading? Go order a pie! read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Classic NY Cheese Pie - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

I had read the other reviews and decided to try the pizza here. The service is good but they forgot to send me a new menu. I was disappointed at the amount of tomato sauce and toppings on the pizza. There was enough anchovies but I asked for ham, mushrooms and black olives but saw very little of them for charging almost $3 per toppings. read more

Says they're open til 10. Went in tonight at 9:30, and everything was cleared out and they were cleaning because they were closed. Apparently, they close early all the time. It's NYC, people get pizza all night long. Don't see this place lasting much longer with all the other places opening and staying open in the neighborhood. read more

Amazing Lasagna! It's not like a traditional rectangle or square, it's better than that. When ordered delivered, it comes in a round aluminum to-go container. That container has surrendered it's complete area to awesomeness. I added meat sauce +$3. Worth it. I ordered garlic knots, delicious as well. What a great first impression! Thank you! read more

Mad good pizza. Came with my boyfriend who is Queens born and raised so he knows pizza! Really loved it here. The pepperoni pizza was solid!

First time leaving a review on anything ever. Ordered mozzarella sticks, they came half unbreaded. I've gotten mozzarella sticks delivered from a multitude of different restaurants over the years so I understand things happen in travel or they can get soggy but this did not seem like that at all. I called the restaurant and they put me on with the manager who was rude and defensive and kept talking over me to tell me that he doesn't do refunds and that he needs to send someone to come get the food so he can show the drivers?? Because if they messed up it comes out of their pay??? I don't know why he was telling me this. I told him it was not the driver and it was the way they were made. And he again got defensive and annoyed and said he doesn't do refunds and hung up. So wild and will not be ordering from here again. read more

Zio Pepe’s Pizzeria - Pizza Near Me - Astoria, New York

the former location was a greek restaurant that was just ok which meant it became zio pepes pizzeria a few years back. i have been here a few times for a few mushroom slices and soda and this pizza joint does not serves average or ok pizza , no it serves very good pizza and my cuz antonio who loves his pizza also agrees with me. plenty of different toppings if you prefer and if you want to try something else maybe try a pasta dish or wings or maybe a burger or sandwich or some garlic bread or how about some soup , etc. this pizza shop is worth a try when you are in the astoria area and it may be semi hidden as its away from the busy sections of astoria but still close enough by car or walking . overall 4.5 stars on my yelp meter and antonio loved the lasagna as well. read more

Solid neighborhood pizza spot that quickly became our Friday night go to when we moved from Manhattan to Astoria. Friendly service and reliably delicious pizza. read more

There's ginger garlic bread and chicken bacon ranch pizza always serves my cravings. Highly recommend.

The food is delicious...let's get that out of the way. The service as far as delivery or pickup times is a complete joke. Mayne, the spot they're in is too small..or maybe they have a lack of caring about when they tell people their orders will be ready. In the end, it will definitely cost them business. Be honest about pickup and delivery times and your customers will appreciate your honesty and realize how good your food actually tastes. read more

great spot. really good pizza love the food and the service...try the vodka slice its too good.

Favorite pizzeria in Astoria! There are so many brick oven, "fancier" pizza places these days but Zio Pepe's doesn't need to jazz it up. Their classic pizza is the best. On top of good pizza, the owner Sammy is the nicest. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more dedicated business owner who puts his heart and soul into his business all while keeping a friendly, neighborly feel. read more

The plain slice hits the spot. True NYC style pizza. The sauce, cheese, crust was all perfect and delicious.

This place recently opened up where the Greek restaurant used to be on 23rd Ave. across from Rockies bar. You might totally miss it unless you've read the yelp review or you live in the neighborhood. The first time I stopped in I honestly wasn't expecting that much but I think it's the best pizza we have in Astoria since Michelangelo's closed down. I know a lot of people really love the brick oven pizza at that place over on Broadway, I was never impressed. This place is like old fashioned New York pizza and it's not stupid expensive!! My favorite is the chicken bacon ranch and I pretty much can't go a week without having at least a couple slices. Plus the garlic knots are also delicious. They have a bunch of other stuff on their menu like pastas and I keep telling myself I'll try but I'm just addicted to the bacon ranch pizza what can I say. If you're in the neighborhood or if you feel like ordering definitely try them out and they deliver slices as well. The staff are all really nice too. It does get a little warm inside but they have a nice little outdoor seating area. Try Them! read more
