Alfano's Pizzeria Reviews
I am so disappointed to write this. We used to get great food and service here, but I've noticed it going downhill and tonight I reached my breaking point. We ordered and paid for cheese bread, pizza, a sandwich, and cinna minis. The owner asked if I wanted the cheese bread as an appetizer and since we had over an hour to eat, I said sure. We received our appetizer and food, but no dessert. I went up to the counter, as time was getting short and asked about them. She lied to me...read full review
Good pizza good prices small town atmosphere..
The food was bland. We waited for over 30 minutes for our salads to come out. Our meals then came out minutes later (well most of it anyway). I was done with my meal before the garlic bread came out (and we only got it because my wife had to remind them). The garlic bread had little to no garlic taste. My wife's pizza was also bland - she couldn't even taste the sauce on it. Very disappointing

Alfano's Pizzeria is a popular local spot known for its authentic Italian dishes and pizza, which many customers say is the best in the area. The pizza, including their famous breadsticks, is highly praised and considered a trademark item. The breadsticks are totally over the top, and the meatballs are often called the best anyone has ever had in America. Customers appreciate that the ingredients are authentic, with some noting they are the same as those used 45-50 years ago. The restaurant has a warm, family-run atmosphere that many find welcoming and friendly. The staff is known for their hospitality, and even during busy times, they do their best to serve guests well. The pizza crust is super crisp and flavorful, with lots of fresh veggies and cheese, and the garlic bread is also a favorite. Some reviews mention ordering to go or delivery, and others highlight the convenience of getting hot, fresh, and delicious pizza. While service can sometimes be slow, the friendly staff and good food make up for it. Customers suggest asking for less sauce if preferred and are pleased with the overall experience. Alfano's Pizzeria remains a well-loved spot for great food, friendly service, and a cozy, diner-like atmosphere.
