Assaggio's Pizzeria Ristorante

Great food. Great service

This is a pizzeria style restaurant. I walked in with high hopes, but left disappointed.

I ordered a pepperoni pizza.

Crust was thin like it should be, but didn't have that semi crisp bottom. It was soft. The edge crust had a cracker like texture. Low grade dough.

The cheese is soft and does not taste right. it come apart too easy. Comparable to pizza hut.

They went cheap with the pepperoni as well. It did not have much pepperoni taste and had a weird aftertaste.

This pizza looked like it was going to be good. They showed some skill in making it. In the end, low cost ingredients make this pizza comparable to the hut or Degornio.

If I lived in Fuquay, I would drive to Holly Springs and get ACME.
They have the same pizza but with better ingredients and better taste.

Edit to add
Large pepperoni cost $23.91

This place went WAY downhill quality wise. I spent $44 on an extra large cheese and pepperoni and it was like throwing money in the trash. Cheese was low quality, pepperoni was strangely paper thin and not even melted into the cheese, crust tasted bland and had no bubbles like it didn’t have enough yeast and the sauce tasted like plain tomato sauce. Tastes like cafeteria pizza from childhood. Never again.

Didn't receive my whole order called back and was told they combined bruscetta in 1 container while the bread is in 2 separate containers. Normally I wouldn't question but you can see the bottom of the container through the tomatoes. I spent over $200 even left a 15 % tip. Needless to say I will never return to this establishment or spend anymore of my money there.

We ate there years ago. The food was good. The garlic bread knots were so good!! This visit the bread knots had little garlic. Still good though. Out meals were very good. Big portions. Very cheesy. My husband had spaghetti and meat balls, the meat balls were cooked well done. But very good. I had lasagna. It was very good. The service was the best part. All the employees and the manager were accommodating and welcoming. Very friendly. We will be back and try the pizza.

We haven’t been in years so we figured we’d give it another shot. Yep. Now we remember. Just bad. Go to Johnny’s.

Unreasonably high prices for very small portions. I brought my family of four here and paid as much per person as I could feed all of us four at another restaurant. The food was good, but the portion sizes were disappointing. Would not recommend if you value your money.

Really great food, I never ordered anything that wasn't above what I was expecting. My only ding is that it is a little on the expensive side. But sometimes you have to pay a little more...

I ordered takeout picked it up
The hero’s were miniature ordered eggplant parm very dry
Penne with sauce they never put sauce on
I called them they put me on hold for owner
I heard owner say hang up
$35 for shit food

Parking: Only good thing

First and foremost, when we called to complain we heard the manager tell the front girl to hang up on us. Which is absolutely DISGUSTING behavior for a manager (possibly owner) to say.
Second, we ordered two eggplant parm subs and these things were so tiny about the size of my hand and a 1/4. Which is insane for the price.
Third, we ordered regular pasta with red sauce for my son (no ziti or spaghetti, etc) and we got plain penne with nothing on it at all just oil.
Horrible dishes to put forward and seriously flawed management service.
You best believe I’ll be telling everyone I know.

I was not overly impressed with this restaurant this time. We used to go a lot and it was wonderful. I am not sure what has happened since. We went around 2:30/3:00 today. There were pizza boxes stacked high cluttering a booth and a table and a machine of some sort under the same booth. It looked more like a storage area. There was one couple in the restaurant when we arrived, so I was shocked when it took the pepperoni pizza 40-45 minutes to get to the table. There were two gentlemen making pizza's etc. and in their conversation were using curse words, which I would normally overlook, but I had my young son with me and we do not curse. All in all, for the price we paid, I was unimpressed and will probably not visit again any time soon.

Kid-friendliness: Employees cursing while working.
