Traditional Italian cuisine at its finest!!!! Loved it!

Nice local restaurant with a good bar. Beautiful TV set up but the management should be aware of what is available for viewing especially during various play offs. I’ll be back.

Pizzaioli – A Hidden Gem That Serves With Heart Rating: ★★★★★
From the first bite to the final forkful of dessert, our evening at Pizzaioli was nothing short of exceptional. While the food certainly impressed, it was the impeccable service that elevated the entire experience to a level worthy of recognition.
Our server, Cynthia, delivered Michelin-worthy hospitality. She went above and beyond in every possible way—welcoming us with genuine warmth, anticipating our needs before we even voiced them, and addressing the smallest details with care and precision. There was a quiet grace in how she managed the table, effortlessly navigating timing, requests, and even minor hiccups with calm professionalism. Her attentiveness never felt intrusive—just right. That kind of intuitive service is rare and absolutely unforgettable.
The meal itself was a showcase of bold, authentic flavors: • Bruschetta – A beautifully balanced starter. Crunchy toast with vibrant tomatoes, fresh basil, and a delicate drizzle of balsamic reduction. Simple ingredients elevated through execution. • Meatball Sandwich – Rustic and satisfying. The meatballs were tender and full of depth, complemented by a perfectly toasted roll and melted cheese that brought it all together. • Kids Chicken Alfredo – Creamy and comforting, with moist grilled chicken and pasta that held up to a rich, velvety sauce. Generous, flavorful, and kid-approved. • Frutti di Mare – A standout entrée. The seafood was expertly prepared—nothing overcooked, everything fresh. Each bite was a tribute to coastal Italian cuisine, harmonized by a light garlic white wine sauce. • Genovese Salad – A crisp, refreshing palate cleanser with bold pesto dressing. Bright, herbaceous, and memorable. • Chocolate Cake – A decadent finale. Moist, rich, and intensely chocolatey without being overly sweet. We ordered an extra slice because one just wasn’t enough.
Final Notes: Pizzaioli is more than a neighborhood Italian restaurant—it’s a place where food and hospitality meet with intention. The kitchen delivers flavor and care, but it’s Cynthia’s service that made this a five-star experience. Her attention to detail, kindness, and professionalism made us feel not like customers, but honored guests.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking not just a meal, but a truly memorable dining experience.

Good food overall. Chicken Marsala was spot on. Ciopinno had good flavor but too salty for our taste (we don’t use much salt). Has outdoor seating for our dogs. Good selection of wine. Worth recommending.

Good people. Great food!! Will do it again. Busy to show that it is worth going - but not too busy to turn you away.

The drinks are ALWAYS on point and the food is GREAT. This time around our waitress forgot our salads before our entrees, HOWEVER, all is forgiven since she didn't charge us for the mishap. Our local spot that never disappoints.

My family and I have been going here for many many years, since they opened. It’s always been great, however, within about the last year, the quality of the food has gone down. Recently, I ordered the Vino Bianco, which is usually delicious and full of flavor. This time it was flavorless. Another time I ordered a pizza, and they usually have the best pizza around. My pizza was overcooked and the crust was burnt. There have been a couple other times where the food just wasn’t up to par. The worst part is each time I would bring it to the waitresses attention, and they didn’t seem to care. Not that I expect them to take it off the menu, but at least be concerned, especially for what it cost to eat there. I really hope it gets better, I would like to continue to patronize this place. When they’re on top of things, their food is outstanding.

Pizzaioli never disappoints. Is a nice place to eat and see people. Food is good. Staff is friendly and helpful. I have been coming to this restaurant for years. As a regular customer though I'd like to see more variety in the menu and more healthy options. Definitely recommend!

The food was tasty and the staff was pleasant. Based on that alone, I would give it 4.5 stars. However, there was an bad accident at the table that the manager / owner should have addressed, but that never happened. I imagine that it was never reported by the server/bussing staff. That was/is concerning. Additionally, there is a very offensive picture at the back of the restaurant right across from where we were seated.
I dont plan on ever coming back but that's too bad. Right is right and WRONG is WRONG.

Got invited for my friend birthday celebration here and we really had a great time here. The food is delicious. The pasta is cooked al dente, sauce is on point and the dough is fresh. For those who are looking for gluten free menu, they have some options for you as well. The service is great. The server is friendly and helpful. The ambiance is nice. They have outdoor seating area as well. Definitely will come back for more delicious Italian food!!

Our server Cynthia was outstanding! Food was fresh, hot and delicious! Ambiance was great for it being Valentine's Day.
Underwhelmed by the quality of the food for the price paid.
