“Mike came and made quite the impression at my daughter's grad party. Everyone RAVED about the food, even went back for 2nds, and many even took another meal home. Super kind, personable (they remembered families names!), and were told it was the best grad party many had ever been to. My neices even want them to be at all her parties. Highly highly recommend!!!!“

“What an amazing dining experience!! We had a party of 7 and our waitress was just phenomenal. She was on top of everything throughout the meal. And such a relaxed atmosphere with high end food. To say the food was excellent is an understatement. The flavors were impeccable and everything went together perfectly. From appetizers, salads, soup, main course and dessert- each bit was melt in your mouth deliciousness. And their drink menu is perfect for anyone's taste. Classic to innovative- their drinks are sure to satisfy. I would definitely recommend trying Cibo Vino out. We will definitely be stopping by again!“

“Amazing Date Night Restaurant! Service was so fast! Under 5 minutes for both our pizzas, our server, Sierra was amazing! So sweet and knowledgeable about the whole menu! Also the drinks were amazing!!! Can’t wait to come back next week for date night!!“

“Awesome Experience! At first I wasn’t impressed. My server seemed to be really off, she fumbled her words, had a hard time answering my questions, (maybe she was nervous) etc. I ordered a martini but she brought me something terrible in a rocks glass! We ordered, the salad bar was amazing!!! Fresh and had several choices. Our meal was another story, our waitress got our order wrong. I wanted chicken parmigiana and I got a sandwich?! She did get it corrected but I had to wait longer. At the end of our meal the manager trish came over to offer apologies. She also brought me the martini I originally asked for that she said she made herself. Awesome!! It was delicious!! She was friendly, chatted with us for a moment and deliver our bill. She didn’t even charge me for the drink! We noticed her guiding our server who was then having issues at another table. I would say we won’t be back but Trish really helped turned our opinion around! She’s definitely a manager who cares! We will give it another try and hopefully just get a more proficient server!“

“03/22/2023 "Mike" and team, very much, "A" game going on today for lunch. Best this location has been in a while. Friendly, fast, focused top notch customer service and food today. TOP MARKS Mike!“

“I thought Doozy’s would be a doozy,
But man, was I wrong , it’s far from woozy!
I came for a bite, just killing some time,
But every single flavor hit perfectly in rhyme.

From the first big sip to the very last bite,
Doozy’s turned my whole craving upright!
If you’re hungry and roaming, don’t be choosy,
Skip the rest, go straight to Doozy’s!“

“The manager and team made me feel so special on my birthday, minutes before closing.

I got off work late on my birthday, after working over 15 hours and drove to Olive Garden. I felt so bad walking in 5 mins before they closed to place a to go order. The place was empty and most of the servers had clocked out and were heading out the door.

I asked if it was ok to place an order and said id leave quickly. The manager didnt make me feel bad at all and said that's why they were still open. I ordered spaghetti and profusely apologized, explaining the long day and really wanting pasta for dinner. She asked me a few more questions and found out it was my birthday. She walked back to the kitchen, explaining that thr food would be ready soon. Within 3 mins, she came out with a group of workers, singing me happy birthday and presenting me with a piece of cake and lit candle. It absolutely made my day. As a military member living by myself, I otherwise wouldn't have had a birthday celebration that night. Im so thankful for the kindness shown by this location. When they easily (and understandably) couldve denied my initial order, alone, they connected with me and went out of there way to make me feel loved.“

“Edit June 9: this location went above and beyond sending out multiple coupons for free meals as well as adding a $10 reward to my Fazolis account!! I hage never had a company go this far to make up for a mistake. well done. my husband picked up a family meal today. the pizza was missing and the breadstivks were literally so smashed they were flat. I called to see if they would replace the breadsticks and pizza I was told the policy is a future coupon. save your money and go somewhere else!!!“

“A few months back I finally found a dish that I love and crave, a month later it is gone. Today I reluctantly went back at the grandkids request and the Calabrian Steak and Sharimp with Bucatini was back! Please please keep this on the menu!!! My family are all frequent fliers, especially when there are actually nice assortment of dishes!“

“Fast service, excellent salad bar and good pasta for the price.“

“We have been looking for a new pizza place for a while and came across Tasty pizza and it was delicious. This is our new favorite!“

“Stopped here yesterday for a quick bite to eat for lunch, the Bianca slice was beyond delicious. Warmed and cooked to perfection ~ with a ice crisp sprite in a glass bottle. From the love felt upon entering all the way through to the exit, the entire experience was flawless. Clean environment, Pizza 🍕 on delicious status, people = Happy Mode. I will be back 💕“

“Had Jimi D’s tonight and I cannot recommend it more! Good atmosphere, great food, large portions, and our waiter Gage was top notch!!“

“We visited the center street location today. Soooo good!! I had the NY ranger and my boyfriend had the Empire State. The chocolate mousse cake was freshly made that morning. It was not too rich or sweet, but the perfect balance of chocolate. The broccoli cheese pasta was very good and flavorful with a fresh crisp crunch. The staff was nice and friendly and the store was clean.🔥🔥🔥 I will be back to get more soon.“

“I've only been there once but service was good, food was delicious, and it looks nice in there. Tried the pepperoni pizza and it was good though a bit on the pricier side. Did not get a chance to try the shakes yet but they looked amazing.“

“A dining experience with old world charm. Never a disappointment. Always respectful of traditional dining. Thank you Alfie and staff for the well prepared meals and friendly service!“

“Best pizza in town classic hamburger with Romano cheese. Second Best pepperoni with Romano cheese. Been eating LaCasa for 59 years.“

“Like having dinner with family . Delicious dishes, friendly people. Love having them in the neighborhood!!“

“My 7 year old always wants to walk and eat there“

“The place on the inside looks old like late 80s early 90s but its SUPER CLEAN, wait time was maybe 10 minutes at the most for two personal pictures and honestly.

OH MY GODDDDD, words do not even correctly express how GOOD the pizza was!! My husband smashed his whole personal and I've only got 2 slices left. Definitely coming back for more, I hope the people in charge give this location a not modern look update, I LOVE the old fashion feel in the air reminds me of my childhood and I want it to stay that way but a small touch up to their signs and advertisements would definitely help I think. Im gonna recommend this place for pizza hands down.“

“The pizza & pasta are phenomenal! My favorite is the DiManzo pizza 🤤 The owners are also wonderful people...the service is always stellar. They were generous enough to help the community providing free food during the government shutdown. We must support our local businesses like these!“

“Personal butchers special - it was good, had a nice golden/brown cheese on top with a decent underbelly to hold it together.

Large cheese ravioli - it was good but not that much flavor going on and same with the marinara sauce. They had a little bit of flavor but other than that mostly just bland.

Overall everything was good. I really enjoyed the pizza and as for the appetizer I might change it up next time.“

“I meant to post this a few weeks ago...

I placed an order on Google, and shortly after received a call from Sbarro that they couldn't complete my order due to being understaffed that day. Christy was amazing and promised to make it right, and went above and beyond in doing so. I'm so impressed with this place.

Also, their Spinach Stromboli is in my top 5 favorite foods EVER. I love this place and will be back REPEATEDLY if my current history of doing so says anything ?“

“Ordered pizza for delivery tonight because I hadn’t been feeling well. Best decision ever! Our large super combo pizza not only looked amazing, but it was cooked perfectly and had an even distribution of toppings all over it.Our garlic cheese bread was soft and the cheese was a little browned and bubbly and tasted phenomenal! We were so full we have to save our dessert (cinnamon streusel monkey bread) for later, but that looks delicious as well.It also was delivered in a timely manner, about 20 minutes before we we’re expecting.Well done Godfathers!“

“Delicious Italian - support local!“
