This place is perfect after a beach day or fishing at fort de Soto. They're very nice and it's a chill vibe.

As a professional pizza enthusiast (not really), I take this review very seriously. We were camping at Ft. De Soto, too “sunburnt” (🍻) to cook, so I gambled on delivery. Within minutes, a heavenly glow broke through the trees and out walked a slender hero holding 3 boxes of cheesy treasure.

One bite and I knew—this wasn’t just dinner, this was destiny. The crust? Flawless. The toppings? Generous. The flavor? Nothing short of divine intervention. Honestly, if NASA is still searching for intelligent life, they should start with this kitchen.

Dined in on 9/1/25: Be careful leaving tips with credit cards. I dined in and left a decent tip. Just checked my statement and they helped themselves to a $10 tip rather than $5 on an $18 order. I’m a single mother myself so it’s a little disheartening that a waitress and business would do that. That’s theft. I do not recommend.

Stopped in after a morning at the beach … our waitress, Summer, was fantastic! Pepperoni pizza and calzone were amazing and tasted fresh! We will certainly be back to try the wings, sandwiches and more pizza!

Been eating the sandwiches here since the 90’s (Sorrento’s). The bread is amazing. This is the Italian.

Delicious pizza. Light, crispy crust with a sweet, robust sauce and fresh mozzarella. Somehow unique and exceptional amongst a sea of other mundane NY style pizza restaurants. Nice work.
