“I love this place so much. The owners/staff are really awesome, the prices are affordable, the pizza/grinders/salads/desserts we’ve had are all amazing, awesome toppings, and always delivered quickly. Pizza Royal is a great local pizza place in Springfield and I’d recommend it to anyone! I don’t get pizza from anywhere else.“

“This has recently become my favorite restaurant. We found it almost by mistake and ordered a pizza, since then we have been back more times than I can count. The pizza is the best around. The salads, subs, fries even the garlic bread is fantastic! We have eaten there, we have ordered pickup and the day I realized they delivered to our neighborhood was a great one! I love the people and the atmosphere, and the prices are entirely reasonable. There are many more expensive pizza places and their pizza isn’t half as good. No hesitation 5 stars. We had an exceptionally difficult week and this made life so much easier. Thanks for being great!“

“I highly recommend Mario’s! Over the weekend we hosted a birthday party at a park near by the restaurant. We enjoyed delicious pizza & and antipasto from Mario’s. They were extremely friendly & helpful through the whole process from helping with ordering answering a million questions lol to the day of with delivery right to the party! All the hostess’s, the delivery man, & Niko were all exceptional. Not only that but the food was great and at a fair price for the amount we ordered!! Thank you so much for making this an easy great experience so I could focus on enjoying the party!“

“I had to call Monson Italian Pizzeria for 3 party pizzas on extremely short notice after a chain grocery store lost power and couldn’t produce what I needed for a party. They took my order (knowing they had other big orders to fill) and produced three huge party pizzas for us in about 40 minutes. Great customer service on the phone, he didn’t even hesitate to say he could get it done. Everyone agreed the pizza was delicious!!“

“Seriously, one of the best pizzas I’ve tried in Springfield actually one of the best pizzas. I’ve tried anywhere. Customer service is great and pizza was excellent and you can tell the ingredients and vegetables were fresh. Would definitely recommend 10 out of 10.“

“great place delicious food great staff also they have gluten free pizza along with gluten free pasta love it here“

“This place is cooking authentic home made italian food! The pizza and soup are also to die for. The bread freshly made daily as well! No one is cooking with love like this anymore! 5star“

“Food and staff are absolutely amazing here. Such a wonderful family owned restaurant! I always love their shrimp, scampi and mixed fish. Along with Tonys Pizza Springfield these are my top two restaurants for Italian!! Try their homemade Parmesan peppercorn dressing absolutely amazing!“

“Hands down the best cafe in the area! Authentic-Italian family owned coffee shop located in the cute town of Wilbraham! Owners work hard to provide quality food to the community. From their amazing sandwiches with fantastic homemade bread to the most delicious artsy pastries baked in house! Highly recommend you try the vanilla cardomom latte! Grab a seat with a friend and hang out while you’re there, the vibe is lovely!“

“Had my first Frankie's pizza last night, and it will not be my last. It was one of the best tasting pizzas I ever had!!! Everything was how I like it!!“

“Amazing food and customer service!!! Every time I get my car repaired in Lia Toyota I come here.“

“The food has a great taste but, I ordered a sausage and meatball grinder with mozzarella cheese. On a large grinder there was only 2 1/2 pieces of sausage and 2 meatballs! The little old lady that owns the place may have forgot what she put on it but what was on it was delicious.“

“I'm very disappointed. Yesterday, we chose Bond 124 to gather with family after a family members funeral. It was not our first choice, but the other restaurant was closed for vacation. We had remembered attending a grad party at Bond in May that was fabulous, so we thought we would give it a try for lunch. It was about 12:30 p.m. on a Friday. There was one other table occupied and maybe one or two people at the bar. Our waitress was great at first, came right over, brought waters and provided menus. We ordered drinks, which she quickly got confused with, but we thought nothing of it. We placed our order and began our wait. About 20 minutes later, Sam came to the table and asked if we wanted our food orders brought all at once or as they were made because the cheese buger and chicken sandwich ordered was already cooked. We said sure, bring them out as they are made, assuming they would just be a few minutes apart. Nope! First of all, she brought out the cheesebuger and not the chicken sandwich. At least 15 minutes later, the deep dish pizzas ordered came out. At this time, she informed me my soup (which I ordered as my meal) was not available. I asked Sam what soups she did have, and she responded, "I don't know" (Not let me check). When I pushed to know, she huffed off and went to look. Now we had to ask for the chicken sandwich that still hadn't been brought out, at which time she said it was coming soon. We are now at least 30 minutes since the first meal hit the table, and I still didn't have my bowl of soup. Finally, the chicken sandwich came out, and still no soup. When my soup finally came out, everyone else at our table had already finished eating. Due to the sad event that brought us together in the first place, I didn't bother complaining, but to say we will not be back or recommend this restaurant is an understatement. With so few guests, how does this happen. Where was the manager??“

“No doubt a 5 star review for this pizza place! When we came in we were told we could get seated anywhere we’d like . Our two children were offered high chairs. Our waiter was very pleasant. The food was ready quite fast!! you could tell the food was homemade , the mozzarella sticks were out of this world! Overall we were very pleased with our experience!“

“Every time we come here it’s phenomenal“

“This is the best cheese pizza I’ve ever had. I consider myself a cheese connoisseur because it’s the only pizza I enjoy, this one takes the cake. It’s consistent. Perfectly cooked every time. Amazing dough. Delivery times are always speedy and food is affordable. We use them frequently to cater our office parties and they never disappoint. Great salads too!“

“Good service, great food!“

“just ordered 2 large Italian grinders and they were great. fresh bread lots of meat and didn't have to pay extra for lettuce, tomatoes and peppers !“

“Used to go for special occasions to dine in prior to Covid when it was full service in Spfld. This ELong location is now take out only. Still order here about once per month, 10/10 always fantastic food. Get a bucket of the penne typical and you'll easily get 6-8 portions with zero lack in quality. Folks at the counter are always friendly and quick. You will not be disappointed (unless they run out of arancini)! Parking does kind of suck but you'll be in and out quickly.“

“This is mostly a carryout place. We didn't know, so we ordered our pizzas and waited half an hour and ate them at the very small tables. I asked the nice lady with glasses what she recommended and I'm so glad I did: There's a chicken and broccoli pizza that's not even on the menu and it was great! It was a white pizza with not a sauce, but fresh garlic, Parmigiana, and butter but not too much, so very nice. I loved the crust because it was crunchy and so pleasantly chewy at the same time. And what I really, loved was that the kids could each get their own pizza for less than eight bucks each! And they weren't that small either. I am very happy!“

“We order from Parker pizza frequently and we haven’t had a bad meal yet! Their wings are delicious, the Greek salad with chicken is amazing. The portion sizes are super generous! Pizza is good, garlic knots are fire, and pasta is great as well.“

“life long favorite. One of the few places that can cook chicken wings good“

“Excellent food and service. Clean“

“Sianos! Thank you so much for taking my special request and delivering 6 pizzas to my party in Hampden. Thanks to you my daughter and niece both had a wonderful 2 year birthday. Thank you thank you! Pizza was absolutely amazing! 10/10 recommend.“

“One of the best pizza places in town.“

“I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed the chicken soup with a side of rice, and it was incredibly flavorful. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back!“
