Nostalgia is the word I use to describe this pizzeria. It reminds me of the pizzeria my wife and I went to on dates when we lived in Brooklyn. Everything about it reminds us about that time but especially the pizza. This is the best pizza in town.

I was pleasantly surprised by this amazing gem. I am a gf gal and often do not have high hopes for gf options when eating Italian. The gal at the entrance had me at ravioli when she started listing MANY options that I could eat. This was the beginning of a new fav for me. I also ordered gf meatballs to go with. I was really hungry that day and I was greatly satisfied. I even got a spoon to finish off all that deliciousness. You can taste the Italian love. Prior to leaving I ordered garlic knots and a meatball roll to bring home for my son. Needless to say... "Molto bene!" Y "Grazie"

I've been coming here my entire life starting in the 80s & I've always been beyond satisfied, so f Dave Portnoy! Whatever you get is great & I've always enjoyed the sausage & peppers hero, calzones, chicken roll, regular pie & potato croquettes. Get a side of sauce and you won't regret it!

'FRESHER IS ALWAYS BETTER!" Prince Umberto Pizzeria & Restaurant721 Franklin Ave, Franklin Square, NY 11010Today 10/26/2023, I took my Honey for lunch for the first time to Prince Umberto's in Franklin Square, NY. We both love good home made Italian food. I read some nice reviews, checked out their menu online and saw items we both like to eat, so to not far away Franklin Square we went!It was about 2;30 pm when we got there, the pizzeria side was busy but the dinning area side was wasn't busy at all, and that's exactly where we wanted to go. Our waiter and server Johnathan greeted us and sat us at a nice comfortable table. I ordered something for my Honey and I to drink, nothing with alcohol, while we looked over the menu. I told Johnathan we were going to first try a few appetizers, and after that, if we were still hungry we would order something else. I asked Johnathan, please, DO NOT bring us all the food at once, as so many other restaurants seem to want to do! All that food at once just overwhelms you, plus sitting there, the food just gets cold before you get to eat it. Johnathan said, not a problem, tell me what to bring you, and I will bring it when you tell me, YES!We started off first with Littleneck Clams on the half shell, then we had whole backed clams that were just made, nice and piping hot, and so, so, delicious. Next we enjoyed a nice size pot of mussels cooked with white wine and garlic, Johnathan brought us their just baked HOT pizza dough bread with butter on the side, it was excellent especially when we were dunking the bread into the mussel juice! After that my Honey and I had to try their Trippa Napoletana, we both love tripe! This tripe with the sauce made at Prince Umbertos was so good, my Honey had to take some home! It had no potatoes, no peas, just tender cooked tripe in a delicious mild sauce, which I was also enjoying on the hot pizza dough bread too. Just delicious. Wow!While were eating, the owner, and the chef came over to us a couple of times to ask if everything was okay and to our liking, and if we needed anything else, which was very nice of them to do.We now were both pretty full, but I had to check out their dessert menu first, before we left. I spotted their Italian ice cream Tartufo, and my Honey spotted the Tiramisu. We suddenly found a little space to tackle dessert, OMG! They both were so yummy!Now as far as prices go in this day and age of high prices, this restaurant has very, very, fair prices for quality fresh food! And I might add, this is one of the very few restaurants that is not charging any extra fee for using your credit card, I hope they can continue doing that, we shall see?We shall return for sure. Their food was so good, and freshly cooked to order, just as if we were home, it was a delight to go to Prince Umberto's in Franklin Square today! Johnathan did an excellent job taking good care of us. And if I am going write an honest review, which I am, I have one wish, we both love clams on the half shell, ice cold. The clams on the half shell we had today were really fresh, but they were room temperature and not cold at all? I wish they can serve them ice cold, the next time we come. All in all, Prince Umberto's still gets 5 stars!One tip for all, go for lunch or early dinner, You will have plenty of space in their dining room!
